I voted no. If I was psychic I'd know whether this answer was correct or not ... right???? Huh humour!
Actually, I am super clairsentient, which is absolutely useless unless I am reading face to face with a person ... but then I don't need cards ... so if the question is more related to using psychic skills when reading cards, the answer definitely a big fat 'no!'. Oh, and I just loathe being clairsentient. I can't walk down an aisle in a supermarket without feeling everything everyone I pass is feeling. The world is filled with unhappy, impatient people ... or at least, supermarket's are filled with unhappy, impatient people . I haven't found any 'psychic protection' method that works, and I have tried more than I can count. So ... I stay away from people as much as possible. They are way too stressful. Where did I put that valium????

Just read this:
ditto to psychic vampires .... nor do I understand either how empaths/clairsentients (same thing) equate to psychism, but one of the reasons that I don't read for people is that, having been a social worker, psychologist and healer etc for years, I can no longer handle living in other's auric messes. I figure mine is troublesome enough without actively seeking out needy people, which you do if you choice to read for people for a living.
And yep, they do sniff us out.

Just read this:
Free Flight said:I am not psychic but I am an empath. I seem to be a sponge for other people's emotions feelings etc which means I have to protect myself a bit as I seem to get caught in the war path. I walk into a room and I can just feel others mood. When other's are in a good mood I just suck up their energy and when they are down I get dragge down with them. I am often prey to psychic vampires. dont know how they sniff me out but they crop up a lot in my life
I am not sure how psychics and empaths interrelate ie if one proceeds the other....But I do believe that being empathic means I have some sort of psychic flashes..
