Telepathy refers to the purported ability to communicate thoughts, feelings, or information directly between minds without using known physical means like speech, writing, or gestures. It is a concept explored extensively in parapsychology, science fiction, and popular culture, though it lacks scientific validation as a real phenomenon. As a listed 'skill,' it is typically used informally or humorously to describe strong intuition or an uncanny ability to anticipate others' needs, such as close teamwork or family rapport.
