There are two ways that your ESP can be determined; Tickle's ESP Test uses them both. The first way Tickle tests psychic ability is by objective analysis. It's called "objective" because objective questions have a right answer to them. For instance, the question, "One of Tickle's employees has a dog. What is its name?" is an objective question. There is only one right answer to it.
On an ESP test, one potential downside of objective questions is that they can sometimes be biased. You might be drawn to give one answer over another based on your own personal experiences or by taking an educated guess. However, even with this bias, an objective score still acts as a good measure of how psychic you're likely to be. If you had no psychic ability at all, you'd theoretically have answered about 6 of the 27 objective questions right. Instead, Tickle found that you answered 10 of them right. This means that you got more of them correct than what would be expected by chance, which indicates that you're relatively more likely to possess unusual psychic talent.
The other way to measure psychic ability is to ask about particular experiences common to those who have unusually high psychic powers. These are called subjective questions because they rely on your ability to recall your own experiences from your perspective. Based on the ESP Test's subjective questions, it appears that at this time you have very strong psychic abilities.
To arrive at your overall ESP score, Tickle's experts combined both types of questions: the objective and subjective. They also examined your abilities in five varieties of ESP. Their analysis included: how well you do at looking into what has occurred in the past (retrocognition), being able to "see" the unknown (clairvoyance), looking into the future (precognition), viewing physical objects from a distance (remote viewing), and being able to tune into others' thoughts (telepathy). To determine your overall psychic ability, they combined all of these skills together to arrive at a composite score. In the sections that follow, you'll find a detailed analysis of your scores on each variety of ESP. Note that your results have been reported relative to how other test takers scored. Because everyone is somewhat psychic, you would have had to score more highly than others did to be considered highly psychic.
Of the five key types of ESP, your greatest strength is in Precognition.
Having strong natural ability in precognition makes you more able to tell what will happen in the future, without using information available to you through your five senses. Precognition is the talent possessed by prophets and psychics. You've probably known about this aspect of ESP for a long time, even if you didn't know it by name. For many people, precognition is best represented by the image of a gypsy woman staring into a crystal ball telling someone's future.
Individuals like you who have this ability are sometimes able to utilize it to your advantage; knowing what is going to happen ahead of time can be profound. The problem comes when the events you're seeing in the future are negative. Panic can set in as you wonder whether you can stop bad things from happening. You may not have "seen" enough information to be certain you can make a difference. Oftentimes, people with precognition have visions of things that are going to happen without knowing details like where an event will take place or whom it effects. Depending on the type of information you get, you may not have the whole picture. Most people only have access to a piece of it, and not being able to see the entire thing can be frustrating at times.
Even when precognitive information you receive is positive, it can often be hard to trust. After all, what is fantasy and what is a real vision? By starting to pay more attention to your own predictions, rather than immediately discounting them, you can begin to test your skills. Over time, you'll be able to discern imaginings of what you want to happen in the future from truly psychic thoughts. Pay attention to your dreams as well. Because they're not affected by conscious thoughts, they can be a rich source for the most pure psychic information about the future.
To develop your ESP, it's worth paying attention to all five types of psychic skill, not only your Precognition. The more you know about each one of your gifts, the more you can use them to improve your life.
Precognition
Precognition
Precognition is the ability to know things ahead of time. Nostradamus is one famous example of a person with precognitive powers. However, there are many psychics who claim they can tell the future. The more precognitive power you have, the greater your chances will be of knowing about events before they happen. Precognition can come in many forms. One of the most common and reliable of these is through dreams. Dreams can sometimes provide very credible information about future events; however, this form of precognition can often be hardest to believe and interpret. Perhaps this is because your dreams don't seem as real or tangible as knowledge that comes to you while you're awake. That's not to suggest that all dreams are predictions of the future — far from it. Most dreams have nothing to do with precognition. Still, learning to use your dreams as guides, and becoming able to discern which dreams anticipate future events, can be very valuable skills.
Even people who have not honed their precognitive abilities sometimes have episodes of precognition. For example, an old woman named Judy awoke one morning with a strong feeling that her long-lost son would show up that afternoon. As she ran her errands that morning and visited with her friends, she told all of them that her son would be visiting that day. They reminded her that he had up and left years ago and told her she was crazy to think he was coming. Even with their doubt and ridicule, Judy was so sure of her precognition that she turned down other afternoon plans so that she could sit home and wait. That afternoon a car pulled into her driveway. It was her son whom she had not seen in 12 years. Even Judy was amazed that her intuition had been correct. She was thrilled to tell her son that she had been waiting for him.
Your overall score
Overall, you scored 99 out of 100, meaning that you scored higher than 99% of people who took the ESP Test.
Your score on objective questions
Tickle asked a number of objective questions that have definite right and wrong answers to them. A person randomly guessing on the answers to these questions would normally get at most 1 correct. You got 4 out of 4 correct, which translates to a very strong psychic ability in this area.
How to increase your skill
No matter how strong your precognitive abilities are, there is always room to strengthen them. For most people, the best way to access precognitions is through dreams. However, the challenge with dreams is that they're often hard to evaluate at the time you have them. They're also hard to remember during your waking life. By keeping a journal near your bed and writing down your dreams just after you've had them, you give yourself the opportunity to go back and check what you've dreamt from time to time. You can weigh your dreams against real-life events to see if you've made any valid predictions.
It could take months before something comes true, or it could happen somewhat quickly. Sometimes the clue in your dream will be something small, and oftentimes it won't be literal. For instance, one morning a second grade teacher named John woke up after having the strangest dream. There were lots of different parts to it. It seemed that in his mind he had traveled to the jungles and the tops of mountains all in one night. But the part of the dream that really stuck with him was the end. In his dream, he walked into his kitchen to get some coffee and found Betty Crocker there — the woman from the famous baking goods company — surrounded by pies and cakes. John awoke having no idea what this dream meant and went off to work. That afternoon in school, he was leading a discussion about what his class could do to raise money for an upcoming fieldtrip. One of his students suggested having a bake sale. There was great support for the idea from all the other students and the bake sale was decided on. John had to laugh to himself when he was surrounded by cookies and baked goods at their fundraiser the following week.
Telepathy
Telepathy
Mental telepathy is the ability to know what another person is thinking or visualizing without being told anything about their inner thoughts. Statistically speaking, telepathy is a relatively more common way to exercise your sixth sense. Perhaps that's because it can be easier to get information by reading another person than by trying to obtain information from things like one does with clairvoyance. In some cases, the connections between people seem to somehow support telepathy.
Perhaps you've experienced telepathy in your own life by knowing who is on the line as soon as the phone rings, even if there's no special reason to expect that person to call. You might also have had telepathic experiences where you thought about someone you hadn't talked to in ages, only to have them contact you later that same day. In this latter case, you don't really know whether it was you who experienced the telepathy or if it was the person who did the calling that did. You can check with them to try to straighten it out, but the fact of it may never be clear.
Your overall score
Overall, on telepathy you scored 95 out of 100, meaning that you scored higher than 95% of people who took the ESP Test.
Your score on objective questions
Tickle asked a number of objective questions that have definite right and wrong answers to them. A person randomly guessing on the answers to these questions would normally get about 1 correct. You got 4 out of 5 correct, which translates to a very strong psychic ability in this area.
How to increase your skill
Even people with great telepathic abilities have room to hone their skills. The easiest way for you to do this is to pair up with a friend so you can both practice. Try this: Sit down together with your friend and spend a few minutes calming your minds and relaxing into a quiet, meditative state. Once you're both relaxed, take turns doing the following exercise. One person deliberately thinks about something, like a day that had special significance to them or a particular scene of some kind. The other person tries to connect with what the first person is thinking and then describes what they're picking up. With practice, over time you'll likely get a better sense of when you are picking up a true "signal" from your friend's mind versus simply imagining what they might be thinking or visualizing.
Retrocognition
Retrocognition
Retrocognition is the ability to look into the past and get information that is not otherwise available to you through one of your five senses. For some people, this information comes spontaneously. For example, one woman with strong retrocognition skills reported that she was standing by the side of the road one day and flashed upon of a scene of a car accident. This vision had a disturbing effect on her. In fact, it was so compelling and realistic that she set out to determine if a crash had actually taken place there. Upon investigation, she found that indeed, a terrible accident had occurred just days before, exactly as she had envisioned it. However, not everyone with retrocognition experiences these spontaneous flashbacks. Certain individuals with this skill use meditation or purposeful visualization to look back into the past.
Your overall score
Overall, you scored 84 out of 100, meaning that you scored higher on retrocognition than 84% of people who took the ESP Test.
Your score on objective questions
Tickle asked a number of objective questions that have definite right and wrong answers to them. A person randomly guessing on the answers to these questions would normally get at most one correct. You got 1 out of 4 correct, which translates to a strong psychic ability in this area.
How to increase your skill
No matter how skilled you are at retrocognition, there is always room for advancing your ability. The best way to improve is to go to new places and see if you get any feeling about what has happened there in the past. The more you're able to quiet your mind and focus your attention on where you are, the more likely you'll be able to connect. You may get a particular feeling, have a vision, or just experience a kind of "knowingness" about what has happened there before.
Most times, however, you probably won't have a sense about a place. Therefore the more places you go, and the more times you check in with yourself regarding whether you're having any particular reactions to a place, the better chance you'll have of identifying moments of retrocognition. When you believe you're on to something, try to get feedback and validation by asking others what they know about a location's past. You may be surprised to find that you've picked up on a piece of history. Yet at other times, even if your hunches are correct, you may have trouble finding others to confirm them. This is especially true if the events you are sensing happened a very long time ago.
Clairvoyance
Clairvoyance
Clairvoyance is the ability to know something that is currently taking place without reliance on any of your five senses to obtain that knowledge. For example, sometimes an individual will suddenly see in their mind's eye an event that is currently transpiring; only later will they get confirmation that what they envisioned truly happened. At other times, clairvoyants will not see the whole picture but will simply sense that something happened. Mostly, clairvoyance is the ability to get information about things: "mindless objects." Take this story of a woman who lost the stone in her wedding ring.
One afternoon during lunch, a woman looked down at her hand only to realize that one of the three diamonds in her wedding ring was gone. She was extremely upset because had no idea when or where she'd lost the stone. She was certain it was gone forever. After breaking the news to her husband, the two began to look all through their house for it, not having any idea where the stone might be. Then suddenly, the husband had a vision that his wife's diamond was on the ground underneath the movie-theater seat she had occupied the night before. He didn't tell her about this vision at first, in case he was mistaken. Instead he told his wife he was going to the store and returned to the theater to look for the diamond. Sure enough, when he reached the spot where they had been sitting, the stone was there, just like he had pictured it. He brought the diamond back to his wife to her great delight and told her about the mental picture that led him to it.
Your overall score
Overall, you scored 76 out of 100, meaning that you scored higher on clairvoyance than 76% of people who took the ESP Test.
Your score on objective questions
Tickle asked a number of objective questions that have definite right and wrong answers to them. A person randomly guessing on the answers to these questions would normally get about 2 correct. You got 2 out of 9 correct, which translates to a moderately strong psychic ability in this area.
How to increase your skill
No matter how clairvoyant you believe yourself to be, this is a skill you can always advance further. To become more clairvoyant, you need only to pay more attention to your hunches. Day-to-day life provides many opportunities to test yourself. However, you may also want to experiment with some cards or dice.
Here's a good exercise to try: Roll a die but don't look at it once you've rolled it. With your eyes closed, try to imagine the number on the die you just rolled. Once you "see" it in your head, say the number out loud and open your eyes. Were you correct? Take a piece of paper and write down the number you rolled and whether you were correct or not. The more you do this, the better you'll become at recognizing when your visions are accurate and when they're not.
Remote Viewing
Remote Viewing
Remote viewing is the ability, while staying in one place, to "go" somewhere else with the power of your mind and visually see what is there. Space is not a limiting factor for individuals who have strong remote viewing capabilities. Interestingly, there has been substantial experimentation using remote viewers to examine whether or not this type of ESP truly exists and can be relied upon. One example is the government-funded "Stargate" project that had psychics attempt to remotely view foreign targets for intelligence purposes. The viewers' results were good enough that this program received government support for many years. Today it's even the subject of a number of books. However, that doesn't mean that remote viewing has been determined to be foolproof. Although indisputable evidence exists regarding the legitimacy of remote viewing, it's still difficult to rely on this kind of information. Nearly everyone makes mistakes at times, even excellent remote viewers.
Your overall score
Overall, you scored 42 out of 100 on remote viewing, meaning that you scored higher than 42% of people who took the ESP Test.
Your score on objective questions
Tickle asked a number of objective questions that have definite right and wrong answers to them. A person randomly guessing on the answers to these questions would normally get about 1 correct. You got 1 out of 5 correct, which translates to a moderate psychic ability in this area.
How to increase your skill
No matter how solid your remote viewing skills are, this is a difficult ability to master. Obviously some people will always be better remote viewers than others. However, with practice, whatever skills you do have can become more refined over time. In psychic experiments, remote viewers practice their skills systematically. The tester determines the latitude and longitude of a particular place or building, and then the person being tested takes that information and goes to that place in their mind. Once they feel like they have an image of the location, they describe or write down whatever they're picturing. It's most effective to do this kind of experiment using three people, so there is an impartial middle person between the tester and the person being tested. That way the tester can't influence the remote viewer with their thoughts. By using the third person, it's easier to make certain that the ESP ability being displayed is truly remote viewing and not mental telepathy.
