The voice “Clairaudience.”
You start hearing voices as conversations. Either in your dreams, as you are waking up, as you nap, or as you do something, and something is blurted out that only you can hear unless you are around someone also highly in tune with themselves.
The seeing “Clairvoyance.”
You can see beyond the three-dimensional (human world constructs). But again, you will only be revealed what your guides know you can handle. You can either see it with your eyes open, or you can either see it with your eyes closed. But all in your third eye. It may not be in that area, but you perceive it during meditation or while walking, running, or working out, and some image pops up or intrudes, and at times, it can or may feel like you imagined it.
It doesn’t always have to be during meditation. There are other modes. It all varies from individual to individual.
The Smell “Clairalience.”
Prone to smelling as if it was your lead. When I was a little girl, I used to smell things before I actually ate them. Somehow, I trusted my smell on whether I was going to like it or not and whether I should eat it or not. Now I don’t do that since that would seem odd to my peers growing up.
A smell or a scent can even give you confirmation or give your insight into memories, people, and locations or answers to pressing things.
The Knowing “Claircognizance.”
Downloads, like a computer. You download files consciously or unconsciously. And it works alike. You just know you don’t know how you know, but you know. Be careful not to allow others to doubt your inner self.
This can happen when you request it during meditation, during your own conversations with your higher self, or just when you are doing anything from talking to someone else or going on a walk or anything in between.
The Feeling. “Clairsentience”
A strong sense of feeling from the environment.
I somehow put feeling all in one bucket, but once reading “Raise Clairaudient Energy” by Cyndi Dale, it made more sense to divide it into subparts:
- The feeling from an emotional sense is as if your emotions, themselves, if self-aware, communicate with you about them.
- The feeling from a mental state. Reading minds, reading their thoughts, reading them spiritually. Having a non-verbal conversation.
- The feeling of getting people’s sense from how they [the other individual(s)] feel in their body is then embodied in your body.
I want to add that if you have a lot of water in your natal chart, you can also consider/confirm yourself to be more in the sense of feeling (but not always the case).
These are some of these senses, but keep in mind that there are others, like taste.
Why is alignment critical?
During alignment, you can become more in tune with your emotions, especially since you will compete with your rational or nonconscious mind if you allow it, especially since we have been trained for years to do this via society’s structure.
And that is when you connect to your true self and pick up on things. But when you become more aware and aligned with your body, mind, and soul — then you open yourself to the universe and its interconnectedness.
Thus, pushing away all the distractions and stimulates from numbing you.
“The Intuitive mind is a sacred gift, and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.”
– Albert Einstein.
Different pathways to your intuition? How to connect with your higher self?
Some senses are stronger but keep yourself open for others to flow through you as you build your muscle on the less connected ones. So, you don’t close yourself to them. Let them all flow like a waterfall. This is one way to connect to your higher self.
How do you strengthen your intuition?
Keep a journal of your thoughts, insights, and messages. As Tina M. Zion mentioned in her book “Become a Medical Intuitive,” it is like popcorn; they pop. It is not forced.
Through your journaling, you can see the patterns of when it is your intuition and when it is not.
Other areas that have worked for me are writing, writing quotes, poetry, singing, dancing, swimming, etc.,. Another is to keep track of it mentally. Keeping a mental note.
When you meditate, and sit with yourself with no intention, see what comes up from that day or the previous or from years ago. There are times when intentions are necessary, but that is not always the case.
Walking. Giving yourself those walks in the mornings or the afternoons by yourself, away from distractions. It is in the distractions that you numb yourself, especially if it becomes a passive habit.
Dreams. Keep a journal of your dreams and the different types of dreams, and the patterns over time. How are they manifested and brought about in your physical world or communicated?
What are some other areas for you? Again, it is all brought into one’s eye or mind in different forms – what are your ways of receiving guidance from your higher self? Your guides? Your guardian angels?
Final thoughts:
It is a journey – connecting with your higher self and the true core of you. Just like here on earth is a journey of its own. Learning and continuing to learn here at “planet earth” school.
Be kind to yourself. Shower and fill yourself with the purest love and divine light.
There will be moments when you are trying to find the exit or the window to go back to the ocean’s surface to breathe the fresh air in your lungs.
Don’t panic or react. Instead, concentrate first and see where you stand and where you need to head next, even if it is not the next year in advance or five and only the next day or week.
Know that the power lies in your hands. Don’t give your power away, Dear.
Many Blessings,
