We are all gifted in one way or another. Some of us are born to be healers. Others are destined to be great seers.
The spiritual/psychic gifts we incarnate with are usually the ones we spend the most time honing in our past lives. For example, past lives dedicated to artistic expression may translate into a natural talent for painting, music, or storytelling in this life.
In this blog, I will help you understand your psychic gifts so you can utilise them for the best. Now is the right time to awaken to your gifts.
Consciousness is rising. And, we are being asked and encouraged to believe in our paths. Only when you rise will you be able to help others do the same.
5 Common Spiritual Gifts (Also Called ‘Clair Senses’)
Our Clair senses represent different ways in which we perceive information beyond the traditional ive senses.
Some of us can see spirits. Others feel their presence. You can also smell or taste them.
But, our spiritual abilities don’t just awaken us to the spirits around us. They awaken us to the truth of our existence. Don’t believe me?
Trust me, you won’t need to.
By the end of this blog, you will learn how to identify and exercise your most dominant gift. Without further ado, let’s get started, shall we?
1. Clairvoyance(ClearSeeing)
Imagine being able to see things beyond the physical plane. It is one of the most well-discussed abilities in the spiritual community. If you have so much as watched a tarot reading online, you will have heard about it.
Clairvoyants often experience:
- Visions: Vivid mental images that goer glimpses into the past, present, or future. These visions can be symbolic or literal, depicting people, places, or events.
- Spiritual Beings: Perceiving spirits, angels, or other non-physical entities as if they were physically present.
- Auras: Seeing subtle energy fields surrounding people or objects, often interpreted as an indicator of their emotional or spiritual state. To practice this particular gift, you can start meditating with visualization exercises. Go on a journey. Allow your mind to wander where it needs to be. Trust that your guides will always protect you, no matter what.
2. Clairaudience(ClearHearing)
Clairaudients hear the energetic world. If you are clairaudient, you will have likely experienced one or more of the following at least once in your life:
- Voices: You may hear (or have heard) distinct, disembodied voices that can be messages from spirit guides, deceased loved ones, or your own inner intuition.
- Soundscapes: You may pick up on non-physical sounds like music, chants, or nature sounds that carry symbolic meaning.
- Inner Guidance: You often listen to intuitive whispers or messages that guide you while making important decisions. These messages may come as clear words or fleeting impressions. Honestly, this particular gift freaks me out the most. Clairvoyance and clairsentience (the one we’ll discuss next) are my most predominant spiritual gifts). It took me more than a year to igure that out.
3. Clairsentience(ClearFeeling)
Clairsentients are highly attuned to the emotions and energy of others. They often experience:
- Empathy: They often feel the emotions of those around them as if they were their own. This can be overwhelming if not managed eectively. Trust me, I know.
- Physical Sensations: Picking up on aches, pains, or other physical sensations that someone else is experiencing.
It’s not always easy to discern between what you feel and what others do (because you feel it all). If you are a clairsentient, it’s important to learn how to ground your energy to avoid feeling overwhelmed.
4. Claircognizance(ClearKnowing):
Claircognizants receive information directly into their minds, often without a clear source. It is one of the most confusing spiritual abilities, as you can rarely discern between anxiety and intuitive promptings. If you are a claircognizant, you might experience one or more of the following:
- Intuition: A strong gut feeling that provides accurate insights or guidance, seemingly out of the blue.
- Sudden Knowing: Receiving detailed information about a person or situation without prior knowledge. This can feel like a download of knowledge.
- Problem-solving Inspiration: Finding creative solutions to challenges that appear out of thin air, often accompanied by a sense of certainty.
Clairscent(ClearSmelling):
Clairscent individuals can perceive scents that aren’t physically present. These smells can be:
- Memories: Scents associated with specific people, places, or past events. These can be pleasant or unpleasant memories triggered by the fragrance. I sometimes feel that I can smell colours.
- Warnings: Picking up on unpleasant smells that may indicate danger or negativity, serving as a form of intuitive protection.
- Spiritual Messages: Sensing specific fragrances associated with spiritual beings or energies. For example, some might smell roses with a positive presence or sulfur with a negative one.
How To Strengthen Your Gifts?
The best thing you can do to strengthen your gifts is to exercise them. You can start small by asking simple questions and letting your senses deliver answers to you. Or, you can choose to meditate or do ceremonial magic to strengthen your gifts.
You can work with the energy of the Moon (as the moon represents our ability to see the unseen) to improve your gifts. Or, you can connect with angels of intuition for the same. What you do is up to you. But, please always remember to follow your heart. That is one thing you should never compromise on.
