HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR INTUITION - UNDERSTANDING AND DEVELOPING THE CLAIRS

Have you ever wished you had superpowers? Well, you might be closer than you think. The term clairvoyance, which means "clear seeing," emerged during the Victorian Era, but the idea of "inner insight" dates back even further. Just like our five physical senses, we all have intuitive senses often referred to as "the clairs." These inner senses can help us tap into a deeper understanding of the spiritual world around us - and yes, anyone can develop them. Some of us might be better than others, but I have always believed we share the same gifts. Hopefully, through a better understanding of these clairs, you will be able to begin developing them and, ultimately, improve your intuition.

What Are the Clairs?

The clairs are your intuitive senses:

Clairvoyance (clear seeing)

Claircognizance (clear knowing)

Clairsentience (clear emotional or physical feeling)

Clairaudience (clear hearing)

Clairgustance (clear tasting)

Clairsalience (clear smelling)

While most people have heard of clairvoyance, the other clairs are just as important. These abilities are often used by psychics, mediums, and intuitive individuals, but everyone has the potential to connect with these senses. If you are curious about inviting a little spiritual magic into your life, you are in the right place starting with the clairs.

The Primary Clairs

Clairvoyance: Seeing with Your Mind's Eye

Clairvoyance involves receiving visual information, such as symbols, images, or even short movie-like scenes. It might take some time to interpret these images, but with practice, their meaning becomes clearer.

Claircognizance: The Inner Knowing

Claircognizance is a strong inner sense of knowing something without any external evidence. You might suddenly understand a situation or feel certain about a decision without knowing why. This sense can be challenging to trust at first, but as you build up confidence, it becomes a powerful guide. This is my strongest clair.

Clairsentience: Feeling the Energy

Clairsentience involves feeling emotions or physical sensations tied to intuitive insights. For instance, I often say, "I feel..." because clairsentience is my other strongest intuitive sense. When connecting with someone dealing with specific challenges, I might physically feel the energy in my body, like a dull ache or a wave of emotion. This "feeling sense" is a cornerstone of intuitive work and mediumship.

The Lesser-Known Clairs

Clairaudience: Hearing Beyond the Physical

Clairaudience allows you to hear messages, sounds, or even music that others may not notice. While this ability often develops later, it can be especially meaningful for those who are naturally attuned to sound, like musicians. This is one that I am personally working on developing further.

Clairgustance and Clairsalience: Taste and Smell

Clairgustance and clairsalience involve tasting or smelling things intuitively. These senses are less common but still powerful. For example, smelling a specific perfume might remind you of a loved one or provide a clue during an intuitive session.

How to Tap Into Your Intuition

Just like learning a musical instrument or practising a sport, developing your clairs takes time, patience, and practice.

Here are some steps to help you get started:

Meditate Regularly

Meditation quiets the mind and makes it easier to recognise intuitive insights. Start small and allow your practice to grow.

Explore Creative Activities

Engaging in creative pursuits like art, music, reading or writing strengthens the right side of your brain, which plays a key role in intuition.

Open Your Heart

An open heart makes it easier to connect with clairsentience and other intuitive senses. Practices like yoga, reiki, Tai chi, working with crystals, or deep breathing exercises can help you release emotional barriers.

Trust Yourself

The biggest hurdle to developing your intuition is self-doubt and lack of confidence in your abilities. Allow yourself to trust the impressions you receive without overthinking or judgment.

Enhancing Your Intuitive Superpowers

As you strengthen your intuitive abilities, you will find a wealth of information available to you. Whether you are noticing subtle signs, hearing inner guidance, or feeling a deeper connection to the world, the clairs offer a unique way to experience life.

Remember, it's not about perfection because you will make mistakes and that is all part of the learning process. It’s about practice. With an open heart and a willingness to explore, you will discover how these intuitive "superpowers" can transform your understanding of yourself and the world around you.
