She was brought up in a very spiritual family. Both her mother and her grandmother were psychics in Ireland, and the gift of clairvoyance developed deep within her when she was quite young. California Psychics sat down with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.californiapsychics.com\/psychics\/edwina-6655\">Psychic Edwina<\/a><\/strong> to discuss the first moments her abilities began to surface. Here\u2019s what she said about becoming a psychic.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Want to read <\/strong><strong>with<\/strong> <strong>a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.californiapsychics.com\/psychic-abilities\/clairvoyant-psychic-readings\">clairvoyant psychic<\/a> like Psychic Edwina?<\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>California Psychics: Did you have familiarity at an early age with the psychic world and what it means to be intuitive?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Edwina:<\/strong> I was born into a psychic family. It goes back at least five generations. I can remember my Nana telling me about her grandmother reading the cards for people and how she could feel someone\u2019s ailments. She was amazing. In our family, most of us received our gifts around puberty; for me, it happened when I was 12.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>CP: Was there a defining moment that particularly activated your gift, or was it a more gradual process of becoming attuned to the spirit world?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Edwina:<\/strong> I was visiting my Nana and grandpa Joe for the summer. My grandfather was a retired navy man. He used to teach me how to macram\u00e9 and make beautiful belts using knots. I loved sitting with him and learning from him. For some reason, he suddenly began feeling ill and losing energy. My Nana arranged for him to go to the hospital for tests. When it was time for him to go in, I hugged him and kissed him goodbye. When I kissed him goodbye I saw a vision of him dead. It was a total shock. It took my breath away and I couldn\u2019t keep from crying. He looked at me and smiled and said not to worry, that he would be home in a couple of days. He had no idea how true that statement was.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>CP: How did you respond to having such a graphic vision of something so terrible yet so close to your heart?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Edwina:<\/strong> While my Nana and grandpa were at the hospital, I took all of his things and put them in a box. When my Nana returned she looked around and asked where all of Pop\u2019s things were. I told her I put them away, and this, of course, upset her. She said, \u201cYou know how Pop feels about his things being touched.\u201d Then I told her Pop would not be coming home. She raised her voice and said that he would be home in a couple of days. I knew better but said no more about it.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>CP: Was your vision accurate in the end?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Edwina:<\/strong> Two days passed and there was a knock at the front door. It was a police officer. My Nana answered and he told her he was sorry but that her husband had passed away early that morning. I\u2019ll never forget the look on her face. When she came back into the living room, she looked at me and said, \u201cYou knew.\u201d I nodded my head yes. My Nana then hugged me and said, \u201cYou have the sight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>CP: What happened next? How did your abilities continue developing?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Edwina:<\/strong> Two weeks later, my Nana told me all the stories of our family and how they received \u201cthe sight.\u201d Everyone was different and their psychic abilities surface in different ways. She told me she would now tell my story to the others as well. I was to remember all the stories shared that night and pass this history onto my children when I had my own family one day. I felt so proud. My Nana told me that it was natural and a gift from our maker. We were to use it to help others and for no self-serving purpose.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>CP: Did you ever feel anxious or fearful for possessing this kind of gift and access to Spirit from such a young age?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Edwina:<\/strong> Many people have the gift but fear it. I was lucky to be in a family who could explain what it was and how to use it. I think it made all the difference.<\/p>\n<p>Do you think you have psychic abilities?
