Jonathan's descensdents... This body is sending some kind of spiritual signal to his offspring...

—DIO, Chapter 117: The Man with the Star Birthmark

A Psychic Connection (心霊接続, Shinrei Setsuzoku) or a Psychic Bond (心霊絆, Shinrei Kizuna)^[a] is a strong tie that certain characters, usually familial, share. It allows them to sense each other's general locations, awaken Stands in one another, or cause them to share injuries.^[1]^[2]

Summary

Psychic connections are first brought up when Joseph Joestar explains to his grandson Jotaro how he awakended his Stand. DIO had been pierced by an arrow bringing out The World, and because of this Jonathan Joestar's body sends a distress signal to his descendants awakening Hermit Purple and Star Platinum.^[3] Due to these psychic links Holy and Josuke would also awaken to their Stands, but would be unable to control them. Their inability to control their Stands would harm them with fatal illnesses and would become dormant upon the defeat of DIO.^[4]^[5] Giorno and DIO's ot her sons would awaken their Stands this way too.^[6]

After J. Geil is killed by Jean Pierre Polnareff, his wounds transfer to his mother Enya.^[2]

After being blinded because of his deteriorating body Bruno Bucciarati mistakes Doppio's soul for Trish's because they have the same aura.^[7] Trish being able to sense Diavolo plays a major role during the gang's final confrontation against him. After Diavolo's death, Trish claims that she can still sense his presence, but Giorno assures her that his reign has ended.

After fusing with the Green Baby, Enrico Pucci gains the Joestar Birthmark, which also affects Weather Report. The two are now able to sense the locations of Jolyne and DIO's sons.
