How do you wake up your psychic powers?
Everyone has psychic abilities. Some of us may have more natural abilities than others, the same way that some of us seem inclined towards music or mathematics. But just like any other skill, psychic abilities can be trained and enhanced. If you follow the advice below your psychic abilty is sure to increase to it's full potential
Meditate
Experiment with various techniques until you find one that feels right for you. Remember, there is no right way or wrong way to perform meditation. It is only important that you are able to relax and focus your mind. If you continue the practice of meditation for any length of time, you will begin to notice the existence of your own spiritual energy. It is the connection to your spiritual self which provides intuitive information. Strengthening the connection to your spiritual self will result in an increase of your psychic abilities.
Be aware of the world Try to be more aware of your surroundings. Upon waking in the morning, make an effort to lie still for a few minutes without opening your eyes. Try to notice as many sounds, textures and smells as possible before you decide to open your eyes. This exercise if carried out for several weeks can greatly help to increase your levels of awareness and intuition. Document your thoughts Keep a notebook handy at all times and try to write down those thoughts that seem to come out of nowhere. You may notice after a while that patterns tend to emerge. Thoughts that previously seemed completely random and unconnected begin to form themes or recognizable ideas. You may be having all sorts of premenitions already and dimissing them or forgetting about them. Dreams Keep a dream diary. Try setting your alarm clock to wake you up ten or fifteen minutes before your normal waking time and use the extra time to note down any details about your dreams. Be as detailed as possible and include colours, smells, feelings etc as well as just a description of what happened. If you follow all the advice on this page you will find your dreams gradually becoming much easier to remember. Don't be afraid This is probably the most important advice on all. If you are scared then your mind will subconsciously block out all psychic thoughts. Psychic ability is a blessing and a gift and is nothing to be frightened of. However, if you are very afraid then perhaps you are not ready to explore your powers yet.

What is the astrological sign of the tarot?
The 'Tarot', does not have it's own Astrological sign as such. It is the cards themselves that are associated with the 12 Zodiac signs, Planets of the Solar System and the 4 Elements (Fire, Earth Water and Air).
The 22 Major Arcana (Trumps) cards all have some type of affinity to Astrology and so do most of the Minor Arcana cards, especially the court cards of each suite. Which, when reading or casting the cards, they signify the 4 elements and the 12 Zodiac signs of which describe people in the Tarot.
Here is a list outlining which cards represent what!
What does a swastika mean in palmistry?
From ancient times, the swastika has been a symbol of good luck, and particularly of good wind. Notice that it can been seen as a turning pinwheel or windmill. It is unfortunate that this symbol took on frightening significance in the last century, obscuring its deeper meaning.
I'm far as I'm concerned, there isn't a swastika mark in palmistry (however, I'm an amateur and there are a ridiculous amount of different ways of reading the palm and if there is I'll guess it means luck for reasons stated above), but it sounds like a deformed cross (A.K.A. a chaos mark) which is a really bad mark. It's location tells of it's nature and degree, aswell any maks beside or on it will tell even more for better or worse.
No. While modern druids may use tarot cards as a form of divination, the original druids did not have or use tarot cards, though they did have other forms of divination.
Tarot cards exist in many different forms and there are a vast array of decks available online, metaphysical stores and national bookstores.

Is Gabriella psychic medium a fake?
Most people refer to Gabriella as a ripoff, and waste of money, because what she says will happen, has never happened. Unless it was a miracle. Or, put another way, anyone, including me can make one hundred predictions and one or two are sure to come true. If I published my successes, you wouldn't know about the 98 or 99 that failed. So I would say yes, she is fake.
Is numerology used in the Bible?
Numerology is the study of the occult meanings of numbers and their supposed influence on human life. It was important to the ancients and many examples occur in the Bible. Significant biblical numbers include 3, 7, 14, 17 and 40.
The PatriarchsLet's have a look at the biblical evidence for the lifespans of the Hebrew patriarchs: Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The Bible says that:Joseph is sometimes referred to as the fourth Patriarch, and he too fits into this
elegant pattern. And just as Adam is the first man in the Book of Genesis, Joseph is also the last, so his lifespan of exactly 110 years also fits into a pattern with Adam's. Finally, can see that Joseph share a pattern with other legenday heroes. Joseph lived to 110 years:
930 = (30X30 + 30) - Adam's lifespan
This is certainly mystical, but not quite believable. Whether or not Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph were real, historical persons, they did not live to such precisely ordained ages. And if their exact lifespans were literary creations, there is no good reason they lived any longer than other humans. This is simply evidence that numerology was important in the beliefs of the ancient Hebrew people.
Other legendary HebrewsIn addition to the patriarchs and Joseph, Levi, Moses and Joshua were the other great leaders revered by the Jews. The priestly tribe of Levites was said to be descended from Levi, great grandfather of Moses who, along with Joshua, fulfilled the covenant that God gave to the patriarchs. The number 17 appears in the lifespans of the biblical heroes of Genesis from Adam onwards. We find a similar fascination with elegant series and the number 17 in the lives of:(also 5 X 5 + 5 X 17)
(7 X 5 + 6 X 17)
(therefore also 7 X 5 + 6 X 17)
(7 X 5 + 5 X 17)
(5 X 5 + 5 X 17).
Another Old Testament example of the special significance of the number 17 occurs in the life of the Bible's oldest human, Methuselah. He had his first son at 187 (17 X 11 years) and died at 969 (17 X 57 years).
Genealogy of JesusTwo different but related examples of numerology occur in the New Testament accounts of the genealogy of Jesus, 'proving' by numerology that Jesus was predestined to be the Messiah:Matthew demonstrated that there were 14 generations: from Abraham to David; from David to Josiah; from Josiah to Jesus. To do this, he had to ignore 3 kings in the Old Testament and have David in the preceding (as 14) and following (as 1) groups, but not so Josiah.
Luke had great men occur in multiples of 7 generations starting from Adam, with: Enoch at 7; Abraham at 21; David at 35; Jesus at 77. He also had: Joseph at 42 and 70; Jesus (Jose) at 49. To do this, he had to insert his own presumably fictitious people into the Old Testament list: Kainan at 13; Admin at 28.
The number 12There are twelve constellations in the zodiac, and the number 12 occurs occasionally in the Bible. Jacob had 12 sons. There are supposedly 12 tribes of Israel. If the descendants of Levi, a son of Jacob, formed the priestly class, this creates a problem because there should only be 11 tribes of Israel, but this seems to have been solved by Joseph's two sons eaching heading a tribe of Israel. Jesus also had 12 disciples. These may be examples of numerology, astrology or simply a series of coincidences, but if so they do form an unusual set of coincidences.Is there a religion associated with the practice of tarot cards?
There really is no specific religion that is associated with tarot card readers. Anyone can choose to be a reader if they study hard and get to know what all the cards mean. It really is more just for fun then anything else.
Explain Magic and Fortune-Telling in Islam?
For thousands of years people have been fascinated, awed and fearful at the unknown and mystical, being heedless of the dangers and harm that they inflict. As Muslims it is imperative to understand these evil-filled practices and to protect ourselves from them. Magic Having the power to do supernatural and seemingly impossible things is referred to as 'magic'. It can be categorized as either sorcery, which is magic that uses the power of evil spirits for evil purposes; or as illusionism, which is the skill of performing tricks in which you seem to make things appear, disappear or change, as if by magic. Ruling Both sorcery and illusionism are unlawful in Islam. Sorcery can only be performed with the aid of devils whose help is attained when the performer attributes them as partners to Allah in worship. Illusionism does not involve polytheism, but may none-the-less lead one astray. It is a sin because it implies an act of disobedience. Magic is a destructive act, and therefore Islam warns against it. Believers should avoid magic and magicians; take precautions to heed the danger they represent and attempt to expose their false allegations. The following evidence from the Qur'an and Sunnah has asserted this ruling. Allah says: 'And indeed they knew that the buyers of it (magic) would have no share in the Hereafter. And how bad indeed was that for which they sold their own selves, if they but knew.' [The Qur'an 2:102] Abu Hurairah, radhiallahu anhu, related that 'The Prophet, sallallahu alayhe WA sallam, said: 'Avoid seven most dangerous things.' The Companions asked: 'O Messenger of Allah! What are these things' He, sallallahu alayhe WA sallam, answered: 'Making anyone or any thing a partner of Allah; practicing magic; killing a living being whose life has been declared sacred by Allah without justification; practicing usury; misappropriating the property of an orphan; running away from the infidels in a battle; and slandering chaste, innocent, believing women.' (Bukhari and Muslim) Ordained Punishment According to Islamic law, the penalty that awaits every sorcerer is death. The Prophet, sallallahu alayhe WA sallam, said: 'Kill every sorcerer, for this is the punishment ordained by Allah.' Umar ibn al-Khattab sent messages to his viceroys in those countries under Islamic rule ordering them to kill all sorcerers. This was later confirmed by Uthman Ibn Affan, Hafsah Bint Umar, Abdullah Ibn Umar, and Jundub Ibn Abdullah, radhiallahu anhum. Fact or FictionAn illusion has an effect on the onlookers that seemingly make things or happen when in reality, they do not. Musa, alayhes salam, said: 'Nay, throw you (first)! Then behold, their ropes and their sticks, by their magic, appeared to him as though they moved fast.' (Qur'an 20: 66). Spells can have a genuine effect that can manipulate the body; even to the extent that it can cause sexual impotence. It may also make the affected person go insane, as it disturbs the emotional balance. Allah says in the Qur'an: ' And from these (angels) people learn that by which they cause separation between man and his wife, but they could not thus harm anyone except by Allah's leave.' (2: 102) Breaking a Magic Spell The best way to break a spell is by reciting assigned verses from the Qur'an and to utter specific invocations specially worded by the Prophet, sallallahu alayhe WA sallam. Another allowable method would be to use medicines lawfully prescribed for the particular case under examination. What is unlawful, however is to use magic as a means to break a spell because this is likely to be done by the aid of devils. Protection From Magic Holding fast to Allah, seeking refuge with Him and putting trust in Him, can attain protection from magic. Also, we should do what is right in the sight of Allah, and turn away from sin. But more specifically we can recite the following verses and sayings: Whoever recites verse 255 of the Surah of al-Baqarah (No 2) before going to bed, Allah sends him a keeper that protects him against the devils until he wakes up. Recite verses 285 and 286 of the Surah of al-Baqarah. Say: 'I seek refuge with Allah?s perfect words from the evil of what He has created.' Say the following three times: 'In the name of Allah, Whose mention is a protection against whatsoever harm is on the Earth or in the Heavens. Verily, He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.' Fortune-TellingFortune-telling is the belief that some people possess the ability of telling other people what will happen to them in the future by using magical or mystical methods. These rulings also apply to people who claim knowledge of the unseen, such as geomancers, palmists, shell-diviners, etc. A fortune-teller uses devils who eavesdrop in the Heavens; Allah says in the Qur'an: 'Shall I inform you (O people!) Upon whom the devils) descend' They descend on every lying, sinful person. Who lends an ear (to the devils and they pour what they may have heard of the Unseen from the angels), and most of them are liars.' (26:221-223) This knowledge of what the angels may have said is then passed to the people who are often prepared to believe what the fortune-teller says. The problem is that what people believe is true, has been embellished or changed, omitting the truth. Ruling: Fortune-telling is considered 'Shirk Akbar' (the major and serious form of polytheism) for two reasons. First, it implies the acquisition of knowledge of the Unseen, which is unique to Allah, (alone). 'Say: 'None in the Heaven and the Earth knows the Ghaib (unseen) except Allah, nor can they perceive when they shall be resurrected.' (Qur?an 27: 65). This means that any one who believes that he possesses such knowledge is certainly claiming the acquisition of a Divine attribute that Allah (alone) possesses. Second, it involves using devils and holding fast to them, a ritual that can only be perfected when the performer is in complete submission to that damned species. This is a form of polytheism. The Danger of Attending Fortune-Telling Assemblies In recent years, the number of fortune-tellers has dramatically increased, only being outnumbered by those who attend their assemblies and believe what they are told. Some people are fascinated and impressed by observing those who cannot miss the opportunity to make fortunes out of imparting their fabrications. People who attend fortune-telling assemblies are divided into three groups: Those who go to fortune-tellers to ask them about the future without truly believing in their falsehoods and without having the slightest intention of disclosing their falsehood to the public. People in this group are sinful and their prayers are not accepted for forty days. Those who believe in the prophecies of the fortune-tellers and go to ask them about the future. These people are regarded as disbelievers since they deny the truthfulness of the Qur'an: 'Say: None in the Heavens and the Earth Knows the Ghaib (Unseen) except Allah.' (27: 65) Those who go to fortune-tellers and only ask them in order to examine the truthfulness of their prophecies; then disclose their deceit to the public. These types of people publicize that fortune-tellers only offer misguidance that can make believers go astray. However, if someone uncertain that he is capable to take on such a task and accomplish it perfectly, he should not attempt it. Such a weighty undertaking could pose a risk to himself, and result in failure that may likely tempt people even further.
