Memories

I remember being about 14-15 and being able to concentrae on my girlfriend and being abble to tell what she was doing, where she was, what she was thinking.

I used to hear voices just as i was dropping off to sleep, recognisable as people I know, calling me, or at least speaking my name.

I used to think nothing of these things - a nice trick, or my dabbling with Sherlock Holmes' "Deductive Reasoning" paying off.

But reading through "Hedge Witch's Way" makes me wonder. Rae Beth says: "What makes a Hedge Witch...? An ability to sense the spirit in things...simply to feel that they are there, along with a strong sense of all psychic atmospheres...The authentic Hedge Witch can feel the effect psychically, because they have a fey spirit. So they live in more than one dimension: within the mortal world, yet with an awareness of psychic energy fields and the links between these and life."

I've always had this romantic notion tht there was something slightly psychic about some of the tings I've done or been aware of. I once felt a very obvious energy field coming off a table full of crystals.

Now I have a kind of aim. I'm going to try - at some point - to meditate or do some relaxation techniques in order to try and get that telepathic/clairvoyant feeling back again.
