the psychics
a little later than promised (my bad!) but here is all the member group info for the psychics! like last time, if you have any questions don’t hesitate to shoot us an ask <3
like witches, psychics are born. their talents are not something that can be taught and those who don't possess ‘the sight’ will never really be able to make accurate readings.
psychics are born with a sixth sense that allows them to tap into the invisible energies that flow through the earth. as crescent hills is an extremely powerful place for them, many find themselves drawn to the town. after the dark witches' blood ritual, it has become harder for them to tap into the energy beneath them however and they are reporting static noise on their readings which is making it increasingly difficult for them to 'see.'
being a close knit community, the majority of the psychics in crescent hills know each other and they are often scoffed at and regarded as strange or odd by normal humans.
psychics have no super-human qualities and are exactly like normal humans other than their natural gifts and live just as humans do, although they have to deal with a lot more scepticism than other people.
whilst psychics can dabble in all forms readings they are often drawn to one in particular and their gifts are strongest in that one field. this can mean that their images are clearer, their readings easier or they're more accurate; it's an affinity that they cannot explain but one that they embrace without question.
scrying
the practice of looking into a translucent ball or other material with the belief that things can be seen, such as spiritual visions, and less often for purposes of divination or fortune-telling. usually psychics get a vague location or very brief, cloudy vision of an event or certain objects or things that the psychic will then interpret. for those whose affinity is not scrying, it is often a difficult process but very strong psychics with an affinity for scrying can, after years of training and refining their skill, make predictions about the future.

palmistry
the claim of characterization and foretelling the future through the study of the palm, also known as palm reading or chirology. psychics are able to tell various different things about a person by studying different lines and parts of a person's hand - they may also be able to tell very vague things about their future. the longer they hold on to a person, the stronger idea they have of their lives and what the future may hold for them. it's a very under appreciated art in the psychic world.

tarot reading
tarot reading is belief in using cards to gain insight into the past, current and future situations by posing a question to the cards. psychics use tarot cards to interpret what the future holds for each individual as well as occasionally using them to tap into the spirit world or other pathways. they can use them to also get a feel for a person's character - tapping into their subconscious and allowing their own sight to guide them through to a conclusion.

lithomancy
a form of divination by which the future is told using stones or the reflected light from said stones. most commonly psychics will cast thirteen different crystal stones across a table and interpret the way that they fall (each crystal meaning a different thing) it is a refined skill that most psychics find difficult unless they have a specific affinity for lithomancy.

psychometry
a psychic ability in which a person can sense or 'read' the history of an object by touching it. many choose to hold it near the forehead as it gives them clearer visions of where the person they're searching for might be or where the object itself has been. they can interpret smells, scents, images, sounds and even emotions from the object in their touch. it is much like scrying only through touch rather than sight.
