Aug 17, 2015 at 15:49 comment added herisson @Pharap: I edited my answer to add more discussion of the meaning. Joe Blow is quite right about the general sense of the term. Of course, particular people may choose to use words in broader or narrower senses (especially when the subject is something as mysterious as psychic powers). But overall, "clairvoyant" is not limited to seeing visions of the future.

Aug 17, 2015 at 6:31 comment added Pharap @JoeBlow Do you have evidence for it being a more general term? Wiktionary lists clairvoyant as "A person able to foresee the future." and clairvoyance as "(parapsychology) The power to see the future."
Aug 17, 2015 at 1:39 comment added Fattie But surely that's a more general word for psychic ... here we want to know the term for "future-looking" clairvoyants.
