Clairsentience is a metaphysical sense that relates to recurring physical and emotional feelings. It is known as your gut feeling and signifies Divine guidance.
Clairsentience (clear feeling) is one of the four metaphysical senses, the others being clairvoyant (clear seeing), clairaudient (clear hearing), and claircognizant (clear knowing). It is one of your four metaphysical senses in addition to your five physical senses.
If you have ever had a physical or emotional feeling suddenly wash over you with no apparent connection to your current state of mind, you have just experienced clairsentience.
An example of this for me is pulling in to work and before I am out of the car, looking at the office I work in and getting a feeling that my boss is very upset. Sure enough, I can tell even before I talk to her or walk in the building that something has gone on with a customer or her personal life that is upsetting to her.
I think by getting this information before I walk in the door, it better allows me to prepare mentally and put up the proper shields on my energy so I won’t be drained from the experience.
Types of Clairsentience
Perhaps you suddenly feel sad or extremely anxious for no reason, or feel an unexplained sense of foreboding. You may also experience physical symptoms that are not your own or came out of nowhere.
Stomach aches, sweaty palms, instant anger, hair standing up on the back of your neck, a tingling sensation, and feeling generally sick are quite common and can give you a very good indication to change your travel plans or course of action.
Important questions to ask yourself when you have such a feeling.
Is the feeling my own? If not, whose feeling do you think it was? Usually the first name to come to mind is correct.
What was I thinking about just before I had the feeling?
Who was I thinking about just before I had the feeling?
Empathy
Empathy is the ability to sense and feel another persons emotions. These can be happy or sad emotions or a range in between. The difference is they are not your own feelings. While being able to feel another persons pain can be helpful at times, if you find yourself continually experiencing the emotions of another, you may want to look into some clearing techniques, like etheric cord cutting.
Some people have a sensitivity to touch, as in the laying on of hands to another person and you notice how you feel changes. This can be quite useful if you are in any type of the healing arts, such as Reiki or massage therapy. It can be used to discern which area of the body is in need of healing.
Psychometry
Psychometry is the ability to use touch to gain information about an object being held. Jewelry is commonly used, as it has had direct contact with the person. It can be used to tell personality traits about another via an object held in the hand. It can also be used to pick up on the past via visions received from holding an artifact.
Fragrances
Sensitivity to smells, like fragrances is another way to feel the energy of another. Many people report smelling the favorite perfume of a deceased loved one, or a favorite flower scent, even though there could be no way the scent was present in the home.

Thanks for writing this! I recently discovered that my primary gift is clairsentience and I am still trying to figure out how I can use this gift to help others, hopefully I will figure it out.
I’m an empath. I feel and know what some one is thinking. I also get a msg. rarely by voice telling me something I need to know. I smell fragrances, like flowers. I have gut feelings before I go some where and are always right. I don’t go somewhere, if I feel I shouldn’t. It’s like a knowing.
Before I got divorced, I looked at a marriage photo, I sensed that he was already gone, this was 1 year before. This knowing of all above is quite special, helpful and prepares you for circumstances coning.
I help a lot of people with emotional ills, they seem to be attracted to me and just let out all their secrets or woes. All I can do is listen and have compassion. I sense also if I touch some one, they feel better, or if they are in my presence. We must be healers I believe a gift from God.
I’m a student of life…. trying to cultivate inner connectedness…, and I would love to experience Divine guidance.
