The term 'psychic' refers to people possessing a special gift of extra sensory perception or rather a sixth sense which results in them being able to perceive certain things that are otherwise hidden from the normal senses of sight, hearing, touch, smell and taste.
Leaving alone the topic of psychics at the moment, let me talk about a shopkeeper in a local store who I happen to know. I remember him telling me that he can visualize my future home to have a view of an undulating plateau and vast grounds from the window. Since I exactly have the very same view from my home now, I can safely conclude him to be a clairvoyant.
Thus clairvoyants are people who have the psychic power to 'see' things which otherwise cannot be seen by other people with the normal human sense of sight. Originating from the word 'Clair voyance' or 'clear viewing', clairvoyants have an extra sensory perception that results in them seeing visions of another individual's personal aspects or his/her events in the past or future.
It can then be said that clairvoyants happen to be a subset of psychics but not vice versa. That is, all clairvoyants are said to possess psychic abilities but all psychics are not clairvoyants. In the usual parlance, the term clairvoyant is many a time carelessly used to refer to psychics as a whole. But the truth remains that apart from clairvoyants, there are numerous other types of psychics that are found all over the world.
Telepathy is also one of the most common psychic powers witnessed in the world and something which clairvoyance is confused with. According to parapsychology, which is the science that studies the presence and causes of psychic powers, clairvoyants are involved in direct and immediate information transfer with another external source whereas telepathy involves reading another person's thoughts and hence involves information transfer from another individual's mind.
Moreover, in comparison to the abilities of retro cognition or precognition which deals with the psychic's ability in predicting past events and future events respectively, it should be noted that for both of these, it is more of 'knowing' what had happened in the past or future and not necessarily 'seeing'. Of course if the psychic sees the events then he is a clairvoyant, but clairvoyance can never replace the previous two terms.
Mediumship is also something that is frequently confused with clairvoyance. A medium is another type of psychic who has the ability to communicate with spirits. This communication happens through four channels. It can be that the psychic communicates with other entities through trance or receives health benefits or healing from higher sources, interacts with them physically by participating in activities such as turntables, etc or through Clairsensing, which is the combined ability of clairvoyance and clairaudience, the ability to see and hear them respectively. Thus, we see that clairvoyance is only one part of mediumship.
Thus it can be concluded that all clairvoyants are psychics but all psychics are not clairvoyants. However, the core similarity between them is the presence of an extra sensory perception power with the help of which they perceive hidden messages from our environment. One should always remember that having such a gift of sixth sense is extremely rare and thus should be considered a blessing and used for the betterment of others.
