Colin Wilson, in his writings on the history of the supernatural, tells the story in India of a man who every day walked the muddy streets to the river to swim. One day, on his way home, this man saw his footprints along the road, and at a certain place he "suddenly" moved to walk on the other side. This man couldn't stop wondering why. Why at that time, he suddenly crossed the road? Just as he stopped to check his footprints, he looked up at a tree and found numerous tiger footprints that had just passed, and that was where he evaded by moving across the street. Perhaps unconsciously, this man already knew of the danger and tried to stay away so that his soul was saved. Was this just a coincidence or due to fortune telling? You can also learn how to develop extrasensory perception skills and apply them to your life.
Step
Method 1 of 3: Developing Your Extra-sensory Perception Ability
Step 1. Recognize the difference between the ability to predict, feel foreboding, and create prophecy
As you begin to explore ways to predict the future, you will begin to hear strange language that may confuse you. If you understand the terms correctly, a lot of mystical nonsense can come to light and make simple techniques and tricks more fun for beginners.
- Fortune telling meaning awareness of the future, can come from direct understanding or other forms of perception such as dreams. Many experiences show that the ability to predict can appear in the form of dreams, and most often these dreams appear within 24-48 hours before the event occurs.
- Feel the hunch involves the feeling that something is about to happen, but without knowing exactly what is happening. A hunch can be a bad feeling or a "bad feeling" that something "must feel right." This feeling can be as important as the ability to predict, and more reliable.
- Creating prophecies refers to the past of the Greeks, with the conditions of the future being determined and irreversible. A prophecy is knowledge of the future that is certain to happen, without a doubt. If something has become a prophecy, it means that it cannot be changed anymore.
Step 2. Begin to do deep meditation
The results of recording images of the human brain show that humans have only used a small part of the entire ability of their brains. But is this dormant ability really that useless and powerless? Of course not. Activation of powers that you are not aware of can be done through deep meditation practice, letting your subconscious mind take over and take over your conscious mind. In this condition, the ability to predict the future will emerge.
- Start by making yourself comfortable in a room with soft lighting. Sit in an upright position without straining yourself, it is better if you can sit on the floor, calm your mind and focus your attention on your breath. Feel your breath flowing through your body. Feel your breath leaving your body. Feel the freshness of oxygen in your body, and back again out to earth. Focus only on your breathing, nothing else.
- Gradually, begin to focus on relaxing your body while continuing to breathe. While continuing to breathe, first focus on relaxing one of your arms. Feel your breath flowing into your arm and let your arm relax. Do the same for the other arm, then down to your chest, and to the rest of your body. Let your head relax and your mind calm. Focus your attention on this relaxation.
Step 3. Slowly deepen your meditation to enter a semi-conscious state
There is nothing secret about meditating. Zazen-a type of meditation practiced by Zen monks-is loosely translated as the practice of "sitting." The goal is to achieve emptiness, by allowing the conscious mind to take over by using the power of extra-sensory perception. By learning to do this, you will be opening yourself up to a vast array of signs and cues that make the future more visible.
When you are in a deeper semi-conscious state, you will slowly lose orientation to time, your conscious mind will be silent and make your subconscious become more sensitive in terms of understanding. Some fortune tellers say that an effective way to deepen this semi-conscious state is to visualize by imagining yourself climbing a mountain or descending stairs, or walking into a cave as a symbol of your journey to the subconscious
Step 4. Let your meditative state of mind carry over into your daily life
Once you enter a semi-conscious state of mind and your meditation deepens, stop trying to force things to happen and start letting things take their course. Pay attention to the images that appear during your meditation and try to find these images in your daily life. Also pay attention to the faces and people who come in your meditation and look at them. What you see is probably the ability to predict.
Use all your senses. This may sound stupid, but you can think of your body as an "inner eye," or something that can always gather information. Certain temperatures, smells, even feelings can all be signs of the future. If you notice a feeling of anxiety when you see an owl, a feeling you've never experienced before, you should consider it important. If every time you hear Katy Perry's voice singing a song, and you feel cool, take this as an important sign that something is about to happen
Step 5. Pay attention to symbols and signs
Various signs and signals are all around us, but it is up to each of us whether we can find them. If you are lucky enough to be blessed with the ability to observe and have extrasensory perception abilities, learning to predict the future will still take a lot of work, but you can become a better fortune teller if you continue to practice your extra-sensory abilities. If you want to unlock your perceptual abilities and develop your skills, stop seeing every event and image as something "random" and start viewing it as part of a plan.
- Pay attention when you feel a change in the "neck hair". If something happens that makes your skin crawl, and makes you a little "spooked," stop what you're doing and pay attention. What do you feel? What surprised you? What seems significant about this incident?
- Pay attention when experiencing deja vu. Have you ever experienced what seemed like something like this had happened before, where everything seemed strange and connected? Start paying attention to what is happening at that moment. What do you feel? Where are you? What memories emerge?
- Watch for coincidences. Maybe when you wake up in the morning, you see there are moths on the terrace, it turns out you meet a waiter at a coffee shop who is wearing a shirt with a hairy moth on his back. Is this just a coincidence? For some, there is no such thing as a coincidence–the important thing is that this actually happened. Turn these coincidences into symbols, signs, and cues, rather than seeing them as random, inexplicable events.
Step 6. Try analyzing a symbol
After you meditate, it turns out that you can't get rid of the image of a group of crabs drinking gas on the beach at night. Weird too! What does it mean? The meaning that appears can be different for each person, so you are free to develop your ability to get an answer from a symbol and a sign that comes from your subconscious, and apply it in your own experience.
- Think like interpreting a dream or analyzing a poem. These images will make an impression on you, so it's easy. Is this a positive or negative image? Strong or weak? Day or night?
- Research certain symbols that appear over and over again in your life and meditation. The crab, for example, is an important symbol in fortune-telling, this symbol appears in the "Moon" Tarot card, and is part of the Zodiac. This vision has an important meaning.
- The Book of Dreams, which you can find on the Dream Books website, can be an excellent resource for finding all the symbols that appear in your dreams. This is the perfect place to start your journey.
Step 7. Read more about mythology
If you are not able to understand simple things, it will be very difficult for you to be able to predict the future. If you are interested in developing your extra-sensory abilities and predicting the future, you should begin to explore and study independently the things related to the collective consciousness, and the myths and symbols that are important in your culture.
Some of Carl Jung's writings have had a profound impact on the way we understand our minds and our relationship to our respective subconscious or "unconscious" minds. Joseph Campbell in his book Heroes with a Thousand Faces is the most appropriate source of reading to identify patterns that repeat themselves in the history of cultures and various mythologies, which show that many symbols, signs, and certain signs are unknowingly embedded in us as humans
Method 2 of 3: Analyzing Dreams
Step 1. Start recording the dream
Of course, it will be difficult to analyze your dreams if you can't remember them. To make it easier to record your dreams, keep a notebook and pen at your bedside before you go to sleep. As soon as you wake up, immediately record your complete dream. Describe each item in as much detail as possible. Try to do this as soon as possible when you wake up, even if you are still very tired.
- What do you see? Who's there? Do you recognize the conditions around you that relate to smell, taste, texture? How do you connect with these things emotionally? Is this dream scary? Erotic dreams? Or a pleasant dream?
- Record the conversation first. This is the first thing you should do and it can be very frustrating to think about something important that may have been said but can't remember anymore.
Step 2. Get up periodically during your sleep
If you are having trouble remembering your dreams, wake yourself up while you are dreaming. The most effective way to be able to recognize symbols in dreams and remember the images in your dreams clearly is to interrupt your dream.
Set an alarm on your phone to sound every three hours, so you can complete two 90-minute Rapid Eye Movement (REM) rounds of each. You can record your dreams in just a minute or two, and this means you can still sleep through the night and can also record your dreams
Step 3. Find and determine the meaning of the symbols in your dream
As there are symbols that come during you meditate, start by questioning the symbols that appear in your dreams and then determine what their roles and meanings are.
- Choose different things from each dream. Remember the image of a crab drinking gas on the beach. Crab and gasoline seem to play a role, but consider what drinking, sand, and other elements relate to the sense of taste and emotion as well. How does it feel to pay attention to these things?
- People are symbols too. If you dream of kissing your close friend, it does not "mean" that you love your close friend and want to kiss him. If we dream about certain people, this happens because our subconscious already has a symbolic attachment to these people. Dreaming of kissing your friend may mean that you are attracted to certain aspects of your friend personally, something that makes you want to be closer to him, or things that you want to achieve in your life.
Step 4. Associate the symbols in your dream with your life and future
Common dreams, such as dreaming that you have lost your teeth, or dreaming that you are flying, or that you are in a public place naked can have general interpretations – it may be that you are stressed, you are struggling or trying to control, or you are in a vulnerable position–but you need to make more responsible connections in your life. Use your developed dreams and extra-sensory perceptions to form an inkling and predictability about what will happen in the future.
- If you are waiting for news after a job interview and you dream of flying high uncontrollably, you can interpret this dream as a sign that you are feeling anxious about what success and freedom your new job will bring. It is possible that this dream means that you will succeed in getting a job.
- Look at the relationship between dream analysis and everyday life. If you have dreamed about a friend who died, and was laid in a coffin, it does not mean that "my friend will die." Maybe on the contrary, this dream could mean the end of a chapter in your friend's life, or your relationship will change in some way in the future. Use this dream analysis for your daily life.
Step 5. Practice lucid dreams and try to see the future
Ambitious people who are experts in lucid dreaming practice walking dreams and use them to reveal the future directly. If you're trained and have developed the ability to stay awake while you dream, try visualizing a piece of paper, or meeting an astrologer and asking questions. "Who will be the Super Bowl champion?" or "Do I have a chance to get this job?" Look what happened.
Method 3 of 3: Studying Wisdom (Oracles)
Step 1. Find a source of Wisdom for you to study
Wisdom can come from certain habits, views, or ways that enable you to "read" the future. Of course you don't have to climb a mountain in the occult and face three goddesses with garlands on their heads flying, or attain enlightenment in your consciousness to gain Wisdom. View this source of Wisdom as a means of seeing, or as a shortcut to understanding the future. Oracles–a Latin word meaning “to speak”–are a way of understanding oneself.
- If you're interested in unusual images and totem symbols, Tarot cards are a classic for you. You can see a Tarot reading expert before you start to see what it's like to read Tarot cards. After that you can learn various kinds of cards and the history of Tarot divination.
- If you like to ponder stories and events that seem coincidental, study iChing and dive into its secretive world.
- If you enjoy deep meditation and are interested in unexplained symbols, try learning fortune-telling, palm reading, or other more complex methods of divination so you can discover the wisdom within yourself.
Step 2. Ask open-ended questions for wisdom
If you are to gain the wisdom you need to predict your future, you must ask a lot of probing questions and be open to explanations. This method will help you in interpreting the symbols of wisdom that you get and you can apply as you wish. You'll gain this ability if you start by asking open-ended questions that relate to the many things you need to know.
- Good questions to elicit wisdom usually start with, "What do I need to know about…" or "How should I do…" or "How do I understand about…" Give plenty of latitude so that the source of wisdom can provide clear instructions for you to understand..
- You won't succeed if you just ask the question "Will I get your job?" or read the iChing book, because you won't get a yes or no answer. Instead, ask questions like, "What do I need to know to have a better chance of getting this job?"
Step 3. Learn how to read Tarot cards
Tarot cards consist of 78 cards, which are divided into secret groups of major arcana and minor arcana mysteries, in the form of a regular deck of playing cards. There are four elements in this card: water, fire, air and earth, with unique pictures on each card that you can use to read in different ways. Tarot card reading is one of the best known and most widely used ways to predict the future using symbols.
Most Tarot card readers will tell the story by paying attention to the specific questions asked by the person asking. If you want to learn more about the Tarot, find a reading or guidebook, and start recognizing the cards
Step 4. Inquire using the iChing guide
The iChing book is a book that talks about change. You can use a coin, marble, yarrow stick, or other mathematical method to understand a six-sided shape called a "hexagram," consisting of two symbols that are linked in understanding this book. It's easy, you just roll the dice, ask questions, then read some mysterious paragraphs. If you like poetry, opportunity, and telling stories, you'll find it easier to tell the future.
Step 5. Fortune telling using shadows
Sciomancy is the art of predicting the future using shadows, by looking at images and symbols in the dark for meaning. If you want to try, have a candle and your well-developed extrasensory perception skills ready.
- Step into a dark room with plain walls. You should be lit with candles from behind you. Do some deep meditation first, open your eyes and look around the corner while noticing the moving shadows of the candlelight.
- Remember the pictures that emerge from these shadows, and make notes. Think of the room as your thoughts and the images as the ideas, images, and thoughts that are flying around in it. What do you see? What could be a harbinger of the future?
Step 6. Gaze at a crystal ball or a reflecting surface
Similar to shadow reading, this method of fortune telling is usually done by looking into a crystal ball or a reflecting surface to "find" the images and symbols to interpret.
- To start, prepare a crystal, preferably if the crystal is clear. You can also use crystals from amethyst, beryl, selenite, or obsidian gemstones. The diameter of this crystal is at least 10-11 cm. Put this crystal all night in the moonlight, after that keep it in a clean and locked place and free from negative supernatural things.
- To look inside a crystal, hold it in your hand, or place it on a dark support or cushion in front of you. Do some deep meditation and then look into the crystal, looking intently while allowing your eyes to relax so that the images can emerge on their own.
Step 7. Look at the stars
Even from the very beginning of human existence, people looked to the stars as a guide. Astrology has been used for thousands of years to study oneself and the future. If you're interested in looking back at newspapers that ran articles on horoscopes, you can learn how to interpret symbols using this knowledge of the groupings of the stars.
Astrology is like philosophy, or a way of understanding behavior, as well as a mystical tool. There are 12 symbols in astrology that combine the four elements, earth, air, fire, and water, with one of three properties – cardinal, fixed and mutable. To learn the meaning of the symbols, observe the seasons and changes so you can get hints on how to see the future, and what you can do about your own future
Tips
- Pay close attention to cause and effect relationships. If you are more alert than others, you will be able to make better predictions.
- Be a better observer. For example, a soccer player can predict the success of another team or player by studying the team (how they play, watching videos while they are playing) and observing the players. What is the position of a certain player when he will score a goal? What is his favorite kick like? Which player has he given the ball the most times?
- There are some good sites on horoscopes, which go into detail about your star, although they generally ignore the Chinese version of the zodiac.
- Usually you will be able to predict what a person will do in a given situation by looking at what he has been doing so far. If your boyfriend is a woman who finds it difficult to maintain a relationship for more than two months, you can predict that her new boyfriend won't last until the third month either.
- Most people show signs to the outside world about what they are thinking and what problems they are facing. If you pay close attention to them, you can make predictions about what will happen next. If the person sitting near you in a cafe is constantly looking at his watch, you can predict that he is waiting for someone.
