The Six "Clairs": Opening the Gateways to Intuitive Wisdom

clairs intuition spiritual spiritual gifts

At TNTW, we believe in honoring the subtle languages of the soul. The "Clairs" are spiritual senses: inner pathways through which intuitive information flows. Just as we have physical senses, we also hold the capacity to see, feel, hear, and know beyond the material world. These gifts often whisper quietly before they roar, and learning to work with them is part of deepening your sacred self-awareness.

This guide explores the six core "Clair" senses, how they may be showing up in your life, and how to nurture them as part of your intuitive expansion and spiritual alignment.

 

Clairvoyance — "Clear Seeing"

Clairvoyance is the intuitive ability to receive visual information through the mind’s eye or third eye. These images may appear as symbols, flashes, memories, or full visions—past, present, or future.

You may be clairvoyant if:

  • You are highly visual and learn best through images or diagrams
  • You’re drawn to creative fields: design, photography, building, or art
  • You experience vivid daydreams, colors, or auras when meeting people

Practices to Strengthen: Meditation focused on the third eye, dream journaling, visualization exercises, and energy healing

"I see with inner clarity. My mind’s eye is a sacred lens of truth."

 

Clairaudience — "Clear Hearing"

Clairaudience is the ability to receive intuitive messages as sounds, tones, voices, or music. Often, this comes through your own internal voice, though it may sometimes feel external.

You may be clairaudient if:

  • You think in dialogue or often hear internal guidance
  • You learn best through spoken word or sound
  • You are drawn to music, sound healing, writing, or public speaking

Clairaudients may also pick up emotional or physical imbalances through vocal tone or breath—hearing what’s unspoken.

Practices to Strengthen: Sound meditations, throat chakra healing, affirmations, vocal toning, quiet listening

"I receive messages through sacred sound. My inner ear is attuned to Spirit."

 

Clairsentience — "Clear Feeling"

Clairsentience is the intuitive ability to feel emotional and physical energies in your body. This includes sensing the emotions of others or feeling physical symptoms as intuitive downloads.

You may be clairsentient if:

  • You are deeply empathic and highly sensitive to others’ moods
  • You feel physical sensations (chills, heat, pressure) in intuitive moments
  • You are drawn to healing, caregiving, or emotional guidance

Clairsentients often receive divine messages as physical sensations—such as goosebumps during truth or heat when sensing dis-ease.

Practices to Strengthen: Grounding, somatic journaling, body scans, water rituals, energetic boundaries

"I feel truth in my body. I honor emotion as sacred information."

 

Clairalience — "Clear Smelling"

Clairalience is the ability to intuitively smell fragrances or odors that have no physical source. This may be a sign from Spirit or a way your soul connects to memory.

You may be clairalient if:

  • Certain scents evoke vivid emotions or memories
  • You’re drawn to floristry, perfumery, or herbalism
  • You occasionally smell fragrances tied to loved ones or guides

This sense is often subtle but can signal shifts in energetic dimensions or the presence of the divine.

Practices to Strengthen: Aromatherapy, breathwork, sensory meditation, scent journaling

"I receive wisdom through sacred scent. Spirit speaks through the senses."

 

Clairgustance — "Clear Tasting"

Clairgustance is the ability to intuitively taste a flavor or food when there is no physical source—often tied to memories or messages from ancestors and loved ones.

You may be clairgustant if:

  • You have strong food-based memories or taste associations
  • You experience sudden taste sensations during spiritual moments
  • You are drawn to culinary expression, ancestral food, or hospitality work

This gift is often linked to family energy, comfort, and legacy, bringing healing through familiar taste.

Practices to Strengthen: Intentional eating, sensory meditation, ancestral rituals, slow cooking

"I taste memory and meaning. I receive comfort and connection through flavor."

 

Claircognizance — "Clear Knowing"

Claircognizance is the intuitive ability to just know something without having learned it or heard it. The insight arrives fully formed, often suddenly and with certainty.

You may be claircognizant if:

  • You receive intuitive downloads with clarity and speed
  • You have strong premonitions or inner warnings
  • You are drawn to teaching, strategy, spiritual leadership, or philosophy

Claircognizance requires trust—it doesn’t always offer proof, but the inner knowing is unmistakable.

Practices to Strengthen: Free writing, meditation, silence, tracking intuitive hits

"I trust what I know. Inner truth rises with clarity and grace."

 

Reflection: Which Clair is Speaking to You?

  • What intuitive sensations come most naturally to you?
  • Which clair would you like to deepen?
  • What practices help you tune in to your sacred senses?

 

The Six Clairs are gateways to multidimensional awareness. Some may be stronger than others, but all can be nurtured and developed. Trust the way your soul speaks and know that every message you receive is a thread in the tapestry of your intuitive evolution.
