Let's start from the beginning.
When I was thirteen, my empathic abilities bloomed; Not into anything huge, but enough to consider myself unique. For example, I can feel a lot of pressure in my third and fourth chakras when I hear two or more people having a verbal or physical fight, or when someone is extremely depressed I feel the same emotion even if I'm in a happy mood before I see the person. It mostly happens with strong emotions though, but hopefully I'll be able to finely tune this ability.
When I started my freshman year of high school, my brother's girlfriend introduced me to certain pagan aspects that dealt with learning who my "animal spirit" was and she was going to teach me other stuff but other things got in the way, like her job, taking care of her barn animals, and school so she couldn't. But that stuff brought me closer to what was happening with me in a way that I meditated more often and tried to connect to myself on a more spiritual level, which helped open my precognitive ability a bit.
Three days before hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, I meditated a long time after heading home from school and drew a path in my mind to where I want the (potential) hurricane to go. When Katrina hit, it was at the exact place and strength (category wise) that I imagined it. Still not sure if I was seeing the future or actually controlled where the storm would go.
Eleven days before hurricane Wilma hit Florida I meditated and drew its path to where I wanted it to go and how strong (I was a kid and didn't want to go to school any time soon, what do you want?). When it hit, it was the same deal as with Katrina and I didn't have to go back to school until almost two weeks later. Again, I'm not sure if I made the storm go that way, or if I perceived the future.
I still have little deja vu moments, sometimes prophetic dreams, and can other people's strong emotions. When another one with developed psychic abilities enters the same room I'm in I feel a higher vibration pulsing through the room that's very calming and exciting at the same time. Plus, I love watching thunder storms.
On another note: I have twice felt pressure on my body as I was lying wide awake in bed (with no lights on in the room) for no reason. All I could think of was some entity was in the room and I could sense the slight pressure change in the room.
I don't mean to sound like I'm a superhero when I talked of my experiences with the two hurricanes. But when they happened I was so freaked out. *shivers* No longer am I afraid of my abilities, though.:)
May love and light be your path.
