Psychic
(Redirected from Sensitives)
Psychic refers to the use of extrasensory perception (ESP) to identify information hidden from the normal senses. It can also involve telepathy or the use of paranormal abilities to manipulate the physical world.
History[edit | edit source]
The concept of psychic phenomena has its roots in ancient civilizations. In many cultures, psychic abilities were associated with spiritual or religious practices. In the modern era, the term "psychic" became associated with a wide range of practices, including clairvoyance, telepathy, and precognition.
Types of Psychic Abilities[edit | edit source]
There are several types of psychic abilities, including:
- Clairvoyance: The ability to gain information about an object, person, location, or physical event through extrasensory perception.
- Telepathy: The ability to read the thoughts of others or to transfer one's own thoughts.
- Precognition: The ability to perceive future events before they happen.
- Psychokinesis: The ability to manipulate physical objects using the mind.
Scientific View[edit | edit source]
The scientific community generally does not accept the existence of psychic abilities due to the lack of empirical evidence. Many studies conducted on psychic phenomena have been criticized for their lack of rigorous scientific controls.
In Popular Culture[edit | edit source]
Psychic abilities are a popular theme in various forms of media, including books, films, and television shows. They are often portrayed as a supernatural power or a skill that can be developed with practice.
