Spiritual Gifts: Complete Guide to Discovering Your Psychic Abilities

By Nicole, Founder of Mystic Ryst

Spiritual gifts are innate psychic and intuitive abilities that allow you to perceive beyond the physical realm. Everyone has spiritual gifts—some are just more developed or acknowledged than others. Your gifts might be clairvoyance (seeing), clairaudience (hearing), clairsentience (feeling), or healing abilities.

Discovering and developing your spiritual gifts opens you to profound guidance, deeper connection, and your soul's purpose. You're not weird or crazy—you're spiritually gifted.

This is your complete guide to spiritual gifts—what they are, how to discover yours, and how to develop them.
