Its often theorized that psychic powers can run in families. Many of the clairvoyants I have dealt with over the years have told me that they grew up in psychic families and that their parents were supportive of their abilities.

I am the first known psychic in my family, and I am entirely self taught. But it sands to reason that through nature or nurture these abilities can be passed on down family lines. Do you have any psychics in your family? Or people associated with the occult?

Does your family know you are psychic? How do they feel about it?

Sad to say but i actually have a grandmother who i know has psychic powers but she doesn't even know it herself. Whenever someone in our family is pregnant she has a dream prior to their pregnancy, it's always the same dream and every time she has is within a week or so we find out someone in the fam is pregnant. I wish i had people supportive of psychic powers in my family but to my mom anything like that is just a joke so i haven't bothered mentioning it to her. My whole family is pretty closed minded when it comes to anything and they're still stuck in that same old mind set that there isn't anything like psychics that really exist in the current age. She's the type of person who'd say you're a demon for doing it and would throw Christianity in your face for doing so. I have little hope in my older sister though maybe someday when i'm older i could talk to her about these things and she wouldn't judge me. She's a bit derpy sometimes but she's reasonable.

My dad used to practice psychic abilities specifically mind reading but he told me it was demons speaking to him so he stopped doing it and never did it again.

My mom frequently and still does get visions (that most come true, some don't however) but she doesn't practice it, it just comes to her apparently.

Neither of them want me doing this sort of stuff, they think i'm making a deal with the devil or something and it's pretty sad I have to hide it from them and from my family in general...but what can you do.

I'm the only one in the family that had psychic powers or dealt with the occult. Most of my family members were very closed minded and hated my gifts. I continued to practice them regardless of whether my family thought they were the gifts of the devil.(which they weren't)

My parents are both very spiritual and I grew up surrounded by tarot cards, my family have always been very open and supportive - so I'm lucky!

Haha nice...wish my family was more accepting and to be supportive too..you got lucky there

My aunt was Telekinetic. My mother is Telepathic. My brother is Clairvoyant. My mother was very supporting and in fact encouraged me.

You have a great family. Only my grandfather was psychic.

I think my mother and grandmother to some extent - they're not aware of it.

I think I'm the only the one who's actually exercised psychic abilities with awareness if you get me?

My grand father was a good Hypnotist of that time. He give me a book on mesmerism, when I was at the age of 15

My mother is clairvoyant.

bump

we have quite a lot of new members since this topic, so i'd love to hear your answers to this question too!

I found out both sides of my ancestry dealt with occult knowledge. The only one I know of besides me that practices this stuff is my aunt. She is heavy into witchcraft. My mom said when she grew up a lot of her elders practiced voodoo.

wat?...
In my family, my parent only believe in Qigong, they don't believe in psychic power such as clairvoyance and telepathy...

my X4 grampapy was a psychic who could tear houses down when he got mad and make spoons and forks walk across a table to please the children
then i have a cousin who could bend the shit out of forks

I'm the first of many in my family

I am mostly the only one

My father is a psychic ...he also is an astrologer. My mom doesnt know she is a psychic. She has a damn strong intuition. They are pretty open minded about me developing my psychic skills.

I even send link of my youtube videos to my father and my mom and also watches them.

my family is a tech side i think im the first

I'm the only one >.< i believe I'm star seed or indigo… new soul on earth….

you are lucky your family is supportive. many people are afraid of 'coming out' to their parents and relatives.

Yes Mark...in this area im definately lucky. Plus i guess it has a lot to do with my father being a psychic too.

Eh. Well my grandpa had a vision of me being born before it actually happend. Then he got hit by a car and he passed away (he was much healthy). Either he may be psychic or I had something to do with it.

Extremely. My mother would take me to a psychologist(no kidding). My grandfather would understand since he's been in the same situations but around his age of 20. My grandmother used to call me crazy when I was younger because I used to have sleeping problems, night terrors, falling of bed and screaming at night. So I have no doubt at least 3 of them consider me crazy.
