The word prediction refers to that act by which a person can predict or say ahead of time that something will happen in this or that way. The prediction has many times to do with an instinct that the person has and that makes him think that events will unfold as he says, but in many other cases it has to do with what is believed to be more developed senses of some people than to them. They allow you to get in touch with other forms of communication and thus be able to know the future. Anyway, this last explanation is only useful for those people who consider themselves superstitious and who believe that someone can really read or know the future.
The idea of prediction is an idea that is always related to a greater or lesser extent with spiritual acts, regardless of the type of religion that is professed or even that none is professed. Prediction is an act that has to do with being able to know or estimate what the future will be like and make this information public. Since the human being does not have the possibility of knowing for sure and scientifically the future or what will come, everything that can be said about him will then fall within the idea of prediction.
Anyone can make a more or less accurate prediction of the future according to the particular circumstances of each case. Thus, a person who does not consider himself to have special abilities can predict from what he observes that if, for example, he does not study for an exam, he will do poorly. It can also be predicted that a person will respond in this or that way to a stimulus because their type of attitude is known. However, when there is no prior knowledge about what one is going to predict (for example, that a particular event will happen in a given time and space), one speaks of a personal intuition or an ability that the person may have to know that that will be so and not otherwise.
