In this article we looked at how the energetic system carries information about each of us into the world and brings information about the world to us.  We also looked at the importance of clear energetic pathways of the entire system and all its layers.

Claires are different ways in which each of us can receive intuitive messages from our energetic system.  To a different extent, each of us has what we could call a sense of intuition, which we receive mainly in one of four forms. 

For some people their intuition may be very strong and be accompanied by a ‘gut feeling’, while other people may have visual cues in their mind’s eye.  Others still could experience intuition in the form of a knowingness, or even as sound. 

We call these different ways of intuitive input the four Claires:  Clairvoyance, Clairaudience, Clairsentience and Claircognizance.  Of course, there are other forms of intuitive input, but the abovementioned are the four main forms of intuition most people experience.  Some people use all the Claires, while others might use only one.  If one knows which manner of intuitive input is strongest, one can develop and strengthen it.  

In each incarnation in a physical body our intuition is a pivotal part of human experience. It helps us make decisions and grow.  Whether we choose to accept it, work with it and develop it is up to the individual.  Some choose to ignore their inner knowing and intuitive input.  There are many reasons why someone might not want to consciously work with their intuition, of which conviction is one. 

Once we understand that the physical body, mental body and spiritual body works together as one organism, and we understand the role the energetic system plays in bringing information to and from each of these bodies, it is much easier to accept that our spiritual gifts and intuition are part of us and should not be seen as something dark or separate from us. 

As a matter of fact, if there were no communication between each of our different levels and the three bodies, namely mental, physical and spiritual we each would not have been able to function properly as one coherent organism.

Below is a short description of each of the four main Claires:

Perhaps the most well-known of all the spiritual gifts or forms of intuition, is Clairvoyance.  We hear the term often in mainstream media and religious scenarios.  Mainstream religion has for hundreds of years demonized and persecuted those with spiritual gifts, of which the most infamous were the witch trials that lasted for three hundred years. This all adds to the stigma around the subject.  People who receive intuitive information through Clairvoyant input (or any of the other Claires) will often times do not divulge that information to others for fear of ridicule or persecution.

.

Clairvoyance means to see clearly.  In other words, Clairvoyance is the ability to see spirit.   People with this gift often see images and colors in their mind’s eye.  It is possible to see information about things that have already happened, or things that are still going to happen.  Clairvoyants can also receive intuitive information about current situations, via visions (images).  The visions sometimes come in the form of symbols which can make it difficult to understand.  The visions will not always be clear pictures or photo realistic, therefore it is very important to understand what your visions mean to you personally.  Each Clairvoyant will interpret their visions in a different manner, because their frame of reference might differ from other’s.

Clairvoyant people are visual people.  See how many of the following traits you resonate with:

• You tend to dream in color and with vivid images;
• When you are doing creative work like for instance design work, you tend to get a clear image in your mind of how you want your project to turn out or look;
• When you close your eyes and think of an object, you can clearly see that object in your mind’s eye with ease;
• You get visual solutions in your mind’s eye for problems;
• You are artistic or creative;
• You sometimes see movement in your peripheral vision (the corner of your eye).

.

Clairaudience is when someone receives audible psychic intuitive information as guidance. 

Clairaudients can hear the voice of spirit.  The sound is inside the head/ears and not from outside.  These people are sensitive to sound and do not like to hear loud noises.  See how many of these traits you resonate with:

• You sometimes hear clear and direct voice messages in your inner ear even when there is nobody else around or with you;
• You sometimes hear ringing or buzzing in your ears;
• You sometimes wake up with a specific song in your head;
• You have heard at times whispering, music, singing or voices even though nobody was there;
• Words or solutions to problems tend to pop into your head fully formed, which is helpful to your problems or difficulties.

.

People who mainly receive their intuitive information via Clairsentience can receive intuitive messages in the form of emotional input, physical feelings, or gut feelings. 

People who mainly receive intuitive messages via clairsentience have sensitive bodies and can pick up energetic cues from their environment, which manifests in their personal bodies as feelings of knowing.  They will often say: “I feel…”.  Their sense of feeling is highly developed and may be introverted because they can be easily over-stimulated by their environment.

See how many of these traits you resonate with:

• You sometimes get tingling sensations in your hands or other parts of your body for no apparent reason;
• You feel your emotions very deeply;
• You are able to feel the emotions of others;
• You need a lot of time alone to recharge and recover after being out and about;
• You are very sensitive/thin skinned;
• You intuitively know how to proceed/where to go/what to do, because of how it feels to you.

.

Those who mainly receive guidance and intuitive information via Claircognizance regularly have answers, input and other intuitive information pop into their heads seemingly from nowhere.  These people seem to know impossible things without being told.

See how many of these traits you resonate with:

• You are an analytical person;
• You think about things a lot and are mind oriented;
• You often know things about people that they have not told you;
• You have the ability to understand people without knowing anything about them;
• Information pops into your head seemingly from nowhere, which mostly turns out to be accurate;
• People often see you as a know-it-all kind of person;
• You have in the past correctly predicted things that turned out to happen;
• You are mentally and creatively inspired, and good at solving problems with lateral thinking.
