There are a few different types of intuition, including clairvoyance (seeing images through extrasensory perception), claircognizance (knowing what actions to take without any evidence or rationale), and clairaudience (perceiving what is otherwise inaudible).
But there's a fourth type of intuition called clairsentience.
What is clairsentience?
Clairsentience is the psychic ability that allows people to obtain knowledge through feeling emotions. Those who are clairsentient have a clear feeling that they may not be able to explain, but is overwhelmingly true.
Clairsentients have the psychic ability to sense and connect to the world around us. They feel energy, people's emotional states, and physical feelings.
Clairsentience is often compared to the abilities of an empath, but there is a distinct difference. While empaths are sensitive to other people's emotions and energies, clairsentients can also analyze these emotions.
Clairsentience is the ability to sense other people, so if you do find that you are clairsentient, you need to figure out the best ways to protect yourself from being overly affected by the world's energies around you.
You may have clairsentient abilities if you notice any of these signs:
1. You are very conscious of all the energies around you.
2. People might describe you as highly sensitive and empathetic.
3. Emotionally sappy movies leave you crying.
4. History really gets your attention because you find it interesting that there is so much behind where we have come from.
5. You are very picky about who you hang out with because you like to pick people who do not drain you emotionally.
6. It's hard for you to be in darkness or cluttered spaces because they hold heavier energy.
7. You have great instincts that keep you out of trouble, as you can easily see other people's intentions.
8. It's easy for you to tell if the people close to you are having a bad day.
9. Empathy is your strong suit; you are very compassionate and don't hesitate to help other people heal.
10. You can easily tell when people are lying or telling the truth.
11. You cannot shop at thrift stores, antique stores, or flea markets because each object holds the energy of the people who have owned the objects before.
12. You listen to your strong gut feelings.
13. Meditation is something you easily do to center yourself, and it helps you handle your body's responses to the energies you constantly feel.
14. Little things can trigger strong feelings within you and you cannot ignore these feelings.
15. It's easy for you to discern the actual cause of someone's problems.
16. You have a great sense of taste and smell because you are so in tune with the energies around you.
17. Clairsentients are at peace with death and are open to what's to come.
18. You are plagued by random emotional mood swings.
19. You may feel like you have actually been touched by non-physical energy.
20. You feel drained of energy after you are around people.
21. You avoid the news because it makes you very emotional and upset.
22. It's easy for you to tell when the temperature fluctuates in a room.
23. Clairsentients can also read the energies of animals.
24. You can easily pick up on tense situations and avoid them.
25. Physically and emotionally, you can feel other people's pain.
26. Your third eye sometimes tingles, making you realize that it is activating.
27. You may have had some spiritual experiences that you cannot explain.
28. Because you are so in tune with your body, you know when something is wrong.
29. You get goosebumps for no reason, but it just means that something has startled your energy field.
30. You can tell when energy shifts and can describe what the energy actually feels like.
How can being clairsentient affect you?
1. You are an intuitive parent.
When clairsentients become new parents, they have the ability to feel what their children need. As we all know, babies cannot tell us what they want, so being able to understand what a baby needs is a relief.
For example, this would be like a mom knowing which cry means what.
But don't let this good thing fool you, as being clairsentient can sometimes make a person feel paranoid and overbearing of their children.
2. You need healthy ways to channel your emotions.
Being a yoga and meditation master or instructor is a great way for a clairsentient to channel their emotions and connections to others'.
They can help someone flow and work through their negative emotions, stress, and anxieties. Clairsentients can also teach others to feel their own emotions.
This is a great way to utilize clairsentient abilities for the better.
3. You might have trouble removing yourself from others' emotions.
For example, if you are a therapist, you want to be able to connect with your patients on an emotional level. But sometimes, having a deep connection with other peoples' feelings can be a downfall.
A therapist has to remain objective and not take on other peoples' situations and emotions. But if a clairsentient becomes a therapist, they will sense and feel all of the emotions of their patients. This could not only cause bias, but quickly overwhelm the clairsentient.
When it comes to highly emotional situations that involve many people, being a clairsentient makes it hard to explain their own feelings because they are overpowered by everyone else's.
