Psychics have gone by many different names throughout history but when it comes to their abilities, they haven’t changed. Some believe that they can move beyond the temporal plane. Some believe that there are things that extend beyond our natural awareness. These people are called psychics. Wanting and searching for truth in the form of talking to dead people, using tarot cards to tap into the human subconscious and using ESP, or telepathy are all things these people claim to do; often they are getting out of their earthly shell. Other names for psychics are mediums, necromancers and spiritualists.
I find it difficult to comprehend what it means to move beyond a temporal plane or level. Psychics come in different forms, but none are too confusing to understand their concepts and strategies. It’s just hard because you can’t necessarily prove they are a psychic by a standard test. Psychics also have many names, which is something I forget.

4th Critical Review
April 16, 2010
During the 1920's most scientists were very apprehensive about doing any type of Psychic research. The psychic field was much disrespected at that point. Then in 1920, William McDougal came from England to Harvard. "He openly expresses an interest in the paranormal," and in psychic abilities. He later adapted the term parapsychology from the German.
I found it very interesting to hear about more of the history behind psychics and its meaning. I was surprised to hear that some information was from Germany. I forget that other countries have the same paranormal experiences and psychic skeptics as we do. I’m also sure it probably varies in different places.

I found this extremely funny because a psychic gets caught not making the right connections with someone from the audience.

Psychic Interaction
Since I was studying psychics, I was very interested in having a personal psychic experience. My mother couldn't get off of work to take me to an actual psychic, so we decided we would do our own experiment. My great aunt used to work with the Decatur Polic
e Department and my mother, me, and my grandmother sometimes experience psychic moments with eachother. So, we decided to test our limits ourselves. We used cards they use to test psychic abilities that have either a cross, waves, a square, a circle, or a star on it. Since I've been studying psychics, I already knew what me and my mother needed to do. There is a sender and a reciever. The sender concentrates on the shape and the reciever keeps their mind completely open in hopes of getting the shape correct. First, my mom was the sender and I was the reciever. I didn't get the first two shapes right, but then got two of them right. Then, I didn't get four right, then got the last two correct.
I ended up getting four out of ten symbols right. Then, we traded spots, and I was the sender and she was the reciever. She had the same exact pattern as me, so she also got four out of ten symbols. After doing this twenty times, we decided to try to send a number between one and ten back and fourth. My mom, as the reciever, got only one out of ten sessions right. When I was the reciever, I also only got one out of ten sessions right.

We both experience weird psychic moments and it was cool to get to test our ability to communicate with eachother. We learned that If we thought deeper about the symbol, as in thinking about how the object would feel if you traced it, it would help make a better connection. Also, if you pictured the object, not just saying the name of the symbol in your head, it would also inprove results. You had to mentally send it to the person your transfering thoughts with.

ESP
ESP by Peggy Parks is a book about history, people, and fascinating events that can not be explained (Parks 4). Scientists, experts, and different eyewitnesses do their best to explain and examine ESP, psychics, and the sixth sense. Seeing into the future before it happens is known as precognition or premonition which is a type of ESP. ESP is sometimes called the sixth sense or 
sometimes psychic powers (Parks 7). If you believe that psychic phenomenon is not real, this would be called pathological disbelief. The book also explores the roots of ESP, like Ouija boards, mediums, and dark spirits (Parks 12). Now in our time, we use psychic cops quite frequently (Parks 52). These psychics use their intuition to guide them. This book also used many personal experiences to show examples of ESP. Becky Vollink is a young woman from Michigan who experienced the paranormal (Parks 37). Becky was distraught after her husband’s death so she convinced herself she needed to see a psychic. When she walked through the door, the psychic immediately knew why she was there and was ready with a message from her deceased husband, Dave.
There were only a few things that I disliked about this book. It was sometimes confusing. I lost interest quickly and it was hard to stay on task while reading it. It was also disorganized at some points. I thought the information was sometimes vague and could be considered defective.
I really liked all of the individual stories during the personal experiences portion of the book. It helped me feel like I was in their shoes when they expressed it in their way. I found it really interesting to learn about ESP and how it originated. I also enjoyed learning about how police officers use ESP cops during investigations.

History of Psychics
The history of psychic powers date back to our very existence. Examples would be
medicine men, prophets, etc. Alexander the Great even played a role by talking to prophets. Certain names were even thought to have a form of psychic powers. Many child games originated from a psychic past. "Superstitious beliefs, too, are traced to the history of psychic powers," says Bob from Psychic Training Course. Modern skepticism can be traced back to a point where psychic powers gave them a reason to be.

Modern skepticism can be traced back to a point where psychic powers gave them a reason to be.I think that there is a reason for everything and that there are reasons why we are so skeptical of everything. Something has to get our mind thinking and that something could might as well be psychics.

These girls are psychic twins. They were actually the first to predict 9/11 two years before the twin towers were actually struck. They have an abnormal gift that definately sets them apart.

Types of Psychics
The topic of psychics are among the most interesting. "Let's face it; everyone is fascinated with psychics," says Michael Russell. Despite what most people say, most have questions like: Can 
people become in touch with the dead? Can they see the future or the past? In the psychic world, there are two types of psychic readers. "Shut Eyes" are people who actually believe they are in touch with the dead and "Open Eyes" are people that think they have a mystical or worldly power within them (Russell).
This article goes into the some types of psychics. I believe that there are probably different types of psychics but I'm not sure if what he says is accurate based on that each psychic is different with his or her powers. I find it hard to believe that someone can become in touch with the dead since that seems like a more advanced power.
