Telekinesis

Telekinesis is the ability to move things with the power of one's mind alone. It can be channeled through the eyes, the hands and even the voice. This is Prue Halliwell's primary power. Originally, instances of anger were needed for Prue to activate her power ("Something Wicca This Way Comes", "Love Hurts"), but Prue learned to control the power so that this became unnecessary.

Note: Its been shown in the series that good beings who possess this power, whether it's the traditional telekinesis or hybrid like Paige's, have a strong personality. So this power could possible be giving to those strong enough to handle it.



Strength


Although her power of Telekinesis was exceptionally strong in the first season, Prue gained neither the strength nor the precision that some of her predecessors had. According to the Book of Shadows, her ancestor Brianna Warren, who may have had Advanced telekinesis, had the strength to send the sword of the Lord of War, Gabriel, hundreds of miles away. Prue herself stated that not even she could do that ("Which Prue Is It, Anyway?"). As seen in "That '70s Episode," the sisters' Grams had a much higher degree of precision and control over her own telekinesis that she could force the sisters outside of the Manor by opening the door and simultaneously sending them flying through an intricate path to the front porch. Prue's status as Charmed One predestined that her powers would grow stronger than any of her ancestors, however, due to her untimely death she only displayed her power for three years and did not have time for them to develop.

In the second season, we see Prue's power advance into an new almost separate power. First in "Morality Bites", we see that Prue gains a far greater form of telekinesis (Advanced Telekinesis) that enabled her to send a Telekinetic Wave that seems to act more as a combustion power than her original power. It is unknown whether she could have had a greater degree of precision and control with this power if she had focused or had a chance to learn and control it.

She was also able to manipulate more than one small object at a time when she desired ("Reckless Abandon") and was also capable of moving more than one adult person when she was angry or frustrated. In "The Wedding from Hell", she flung two of Hecate's demonic bridesmaids into a wall. In "All Hell Breaks Loose", she sent multiple people flying about at a time when they are blocking her from taking Piper to the hospital.

From the eyes and through the Hands
Prue initially channeled her power through her eyes, often by narrowing and focusing her eyes on her intended target. As her power grew, she found she was able to channel her powers through her hands ("Out of Sight"). When her powers first manifested through her hands, she lifted both a Grimlock and a small boy for a few moments without any sign of concentration.

As she became more comfortable channeling her power through her hands she found herself more powerful, able to send a single demon flying by flicking her fingers ("Chick Flick"). She was even able to move objects with a mere crook or twitch of one finger ("That Old Black Magic", "Ex Libris", "Coyote Piper"), but also when her hands were bound (for example by ropes) she found she was still able to channel her powers through her eyes. ("Give Me a Sign"). Although she learned to channel her power through her hands later, she used her hands before, almost strangling her ex and boss when her powers were unbound ("Something Wicca This Way Comes"). As a little girl, she was seen channeling her power both through the eyes and through her hands but with much more control and power than Prue as an adult at that time.

Brief Advancement
However for a brief period of time, due to an empath power she absorbed from a demon through the backfire of a spell, Prue's power of telekinesis advanced. In Primrose Empath, Prue displayed advanced telekinesis to defeat Vinceres, she also displayed the combustive part of advanced telekinesis like her future self did when she blew up the attic, but this time she blew up random appliances in the kitchen and some parts of the basement, she also displayed a greater degree of her telekinesis in that advanced form when she moved everything in the room of the psychiatric hospital where she levitated all the objects and people on a mass scale and at a rapid rate, a feat she would never had been able to do without the boost of the empath power.

Fighting
This power can also be used on the user itself, with Prue and Billie Jenkins being the primary examples. For example, Prue started to show acrobatic feats particularly in a fight against demon wrestlers ("Wrestling with Demons"). Prue first used her telekinesis to increase the strength of her blows when she became a man. She also used it to grant herself seemingly superhuman physical attributes when she battled Vinceres. When training with the whitelighter Natalie, Prue used her powers to run up a wall. Billie also showed similar use of Telekinesis with flips in Still Charmed and Kicking. Put simply, Telekinesis can allow a user to defy gravity slightly but has not been shown to actually levitate a user.

Telekinetic Orbing
When Prue died, Paige Matthews (Prue's half sister) took over her role as a Charmed One. Paige's whitelighter side made her Telekinesis power work differently. She received the power of Telekinetic Orbing. ("Charmed Again") In fact it is often shown in Charmed that Whitelighter-Witches who have the power to move things with their mind develop their ability as Telekinetic Orbing. This could be from the fact that in their bloodline an ancestor had the power of telekinesis and with their whitelighter heritage this was created. Or this power could be purely from their whitelighter side, as we have seen whitelighters (Leo, Gideon etc) with the ability to just use either telekinesis or an advanced telekinetic orbing. So depending on heritage this form of telekinesis can either be shared by having a witch and whitelighter for a parent or just a whitelighter for a parent.

Advanced Telekinesis


Developed by an alternate future Prue sometime before 2009, as seen in the episode Morality Bites (and possibly by Brianna Warren), Advanced Telekinesis is an incredibly strong and powerful magical ability. As the name suggests it is a highly advanced form of telekinesis. Though it was never shown or fully described, Brianna Warren may have possessed advanced telekinesis as she was able to mentally move, control and manipulate several objects thousands of miles away with her telekinesis. When Prue accidentally used this power she moved part of the Halliwell Manor attic; destroying an entire wall. An irritated motion of Prue's arm caused a wave of unusually strong and powerful telekinetic energy to be released which swept up anything in its path in the direction of her arm motion. This differed from all previously displayed forms of Prue's telekinesis in that instead of a single or multiple objects moving invisibly in response to Prue's anger visible telekinetic energy aura was released and objects to numerous levels moved without Prue subconsciously or consciously concentrating on them. With this highly advanced form of telekinesis, Prue was able to release incredible force that could move objects quickly and far away and even cause explosions.

This power, in and of itself, is not a solely combustive power, but can cause explosions by either creating high pressure environments or telekinetically accelerating particles of matter (similar to Piper's secondary power of Molecular Combustion). Another form of it could allow a user to concentrate on molecules and decelerate them either to create cold or freeze them (Molecular Immobilization,Molecular Inhibition).

List of Users

 * Prue Halliwell (Alternate Future & enhanced by Empathy power in Primrose Empath. Possible Power Advancement).
 * Brianna Warren
 * Chris Halliwell (Possibly in the Future)
 * Wyatt Halliwell
 * Billie Jenkins (Possibly in the Future)

Telematerialization
Telematerialization is the ability to use telekinesis to teleport objects such as when Prue telekinetically used her mind to fill her cup of coffee with cream. (Something Wicca This Way Comes).

Strangulation
Wyatt and Chris have both shown the ability to telekinetically strangulate or choke others. Chris once used this power to crush the heart of three Valkyries in order to obtain their magic mystical pendants. ("Valhalley of the Dolls, Part 1").



Deviation
As Prue grew more adept at using her power, she was able to use it as a form of Deflection that was capable of redirecting fireballs, energy balls, Energy beams and even sending a group of bullets back at her attacker. ("Ms. Hellfire"). This is not to be confused with the separate power of Deflection.

Psychokinesis
Similar to telekinesis, this ability allows the bearer to move things they cannot see with the power of their mind. Psychokinetics are even able to affect complex machinery whose inner workings are foreign to them, such as alarms. When using this power the wielder goes into a trance like state. The young Witch Max possessed psychokinesis.
