Brief Psychic History

Fortune telling

Fortune telling dates back to ancient times. Years ago psychics were otherwise known as peers and prophets. Earliest beliefs concerned astrology and the study of the planets and the influence the planets had on a particular individual. The time and date of birth is referenced by the positioning of the planets.

Psychic moods

The subsequent planet movements and interactions can provide a map of life or a mirroring of a person’s moods and decision making process. Fortune telling in European countries was considered sinful for many centuries and religious orders opposed the practice. Some still frown on the practice.

Fortune telling, predicting the future, or attempting to do do by any means, was outlawed by many European countries. The punishment for such study was aften severe and centuries ago practitioners of such 'magic' was often a death sentence. Devil worship was likened to dabbling with psychic power and the bad press psychics receive now is still hard to nullify. You either believe in something you cannot understand or you rely on scientific solid facts. There seems to be no in-between believers. Yet, scientists still get baffled by the unknown and have difficulty explaiing it away.

Sixth sense

A lot of fiction novels have been written that contain elements of psychic phenomenon that are convincing and make for enjoyable reading. Many movies, too, explore the psychic. A good example from 1999 is “Sixth Sense” where a young boy is able to communicate with the dead. Another Bruce Willis film called ‘Unbreakable’ explores the main character’s dawning realization that he possesses a strange human ability or psychic power.
