The 4 ‘Clairs’ Of Intuition

People often question how I gather the information I give to clients during readings. For me, it’s a process of using a combination of the “four clairs”: clairaudience (hearing), clairvoyance (seeing), clairsentience (feelings), and claircognizance (knowing).

Each of us is naturally stronger in one of the four clairs. Read below to discover which clair your intuition prefers.

Clairaudience

Clairaudient messages sound like someone talking to you in your mind. This ‘voice’ of intuition will usually be straightforward. It says things like ‘not now’ or ‘yes, this is the right way’. Importantly, clairaudience comes across in short messages which are sometimes even one word.

Clairvoyance 

The term “clairvoyant” is often interchanged with the word psychic. Clairvoyant messages arrive as an image or scene in your mind. When this happens to me, sometimes I will see something I can describe to a client, but other times it can be more metaphoric. When I see a cake, for instance, I know Spirit is acknowledging a birthday. 

Clairsentience 

Clairsentient messages are the most common of the four clairs and come as a feeling. This is why so many people identify with being empathic. Gut feelings, being able to experience others’ emotions, or sensing the collective energy of a room all fall under this umbrella.

Claircognizance

This is the ability to ‘just know’ without understanding how or why we know. I describe this as our brains receiving an immediate download from our higher self or Spirit Team. We receive information much like computer downloads, only much faster!

Your intuition is always available and can have some amazing answers for you once you begin to understand it. Intuition is an ability you are born with. Don’t be intimidated by getting more in touch with yours. 

Be well,
