6 Signs You Are An Empath

Wednesday, June 27, 2012

Clairsentience, is what is more commonly referred to, as an empath. It refers to form of extra sensory perception where a person acquires psychic knowledge primarily by means of emphatic feelings and emotions. In other words you can “feel” what is going on with another person emotionally.

This can absolutely be one of the most confusing of the psychic senses.

6 Signs You Are An Empath

1) Do you feel “overwhelmed” when going to a place filled with a lot of people?

Do you feel overwhelmed when going to a mall, a sporting event, or Wal-Mart? Somewhere where there might be a lot of people? You want to go, but when you get there you feel anxious, unsettled, or “very off” but you don’t know why? It does not always have to be a public place. It could be to someone’s house party, a baby shower, a wedding, or Thanksgiving dinner, anywhere where you are around a lot of people. It is not uncommon for an empath to have an anxiety disorder. Why does this happen? Because empaths pick up on a flood of emotions from everybody all at one time! You are like a radio picking up all kinds of emotional signals from everywhere. And if you do not know what is happening, your spiritual and physical bodies become really overwhelmed trying to make sense of it all. Your spiritual body is receiving information and your physical body is trying to process it all, but it is making no sense in your mind. Your own emotional state, does not match how your body is reacting physically, hence that “overwhelming” feeling.

2) Can you always tell when someone is lying to you?

Have you always been able to tell when someone is telling the truth or lying to you? Even if they do it flawlessly, it is something you just “know” or “feel”. Or can you feel if someone is being deceptive? Even when you have no reason not to believe them? You will usually know the answer to this right away.

3) Do you have random emotions or mood swings, especially when in someone else’s presence or when you think about them, which makes no sense to you.

Do you ever have random emotions or mood swings, which do not follow a thought? In fact, in some instances you find that you are not thinking of anything in particular at all, yet, your body is reacting emotionally? If your emotions do not seem to be following a thought that coincides with that particular emotion, you are most likely picking up on someone else’s feelings, feelings which are not your own. Remember, when you think of something or someone, that thought is then coupled with your perception, and it causes you to have an emotional reaction or physical response to this something or someone. Therefore, your mind and its thoughts triggers your physical body and its emotions, causing a reaction. When this does not happen, say your physical body and its emotions are reacting on their own, without being triggered, especially in someone else’s presence, it is a very good indicator that they are not your feelings at all. It indicates that you are picking up on someone else’s feelings like a radio, a sign of being an empath.

4) Can you feel someone else’s physical ailments?

Do you ever feel sick, or experience a pain, which makes no sense to you at all? Only to find out later that it coincided with a symptom that a friend or family member was experiencing? Maybe you where feeling nauseous and found out later someone close to you had the flu, or you had a stomach cramp and found out they had appendicitis.

5) Do you instinctively know what someone needs to feel better emotionally or physically?

Can you predict or instinctively know what someone else needs to feel better, even when they do not quite know what they need themselves? Do you know what someone is thinking or trying to say, especially when they are not expressing themselves clearly? Do you know what point they are trying to get across, even when they are having trouble expressing themselves?

6) Do you feel emotionally of physically drained after being around an individual or a group of people to the point of feeling physically not well?

When you are around an individual or a group of people, afterwards do you ever find yourself feeling any of these things:

~ Shaky
~ Light Headed
~ Weak
~ Nauseous
~ Anxious
~ Out of Body
~ Low Blood Sugar Feeling (when full)

These feelings are not experienced prior to, but only after having been around people. Usually taking a couple of hours to feel “normal” again. If you experience three or more of these things after being around a certain individual or a group of people, consistently, it is a pretty good indicator that you are an empath.

Now these are 6 clear indicators of being an empath. If you are an empath, there will be no doubt in your mind after reading theses signs. You will not be thinking, “I could be, I have some of them, but I am not sure”, or “Well…I have experienced that before.” You will have an “aha” moment of, “It all makes sense now!” It is something that you will know immediately to the core of your being.

That being said, being an empath is also one of the most difficult gifts to have. However, like all things, it doesn’t have to be difficult, it can become easily manageable. Mostly by one simple thing…

The 10 Commandments of Seeing a Psychic

Sunday, June 10, 2012
Okay, I am hearing way too many stories of people seeing bad psychics! Here's the thing, there are a lot, and I mean a lot of bad psychics out there. In fact, I would say that out of every 10 psychics 8 should not be giving psychic readings. I am not saying that these psychics are evil or just trying to take your money. I am just saying that even if their intent is good, they are not developed enough to be giving psychic readings to other people. Just because you are psychic, does not mean you can do readings...that is a whole other ball game. You must have training and a mentor in most cases, which many do not, and years of experience under your belt. How do I know this? Because I have been in the industry for over twenty years, I have been around other psychics my whole life and I personally have been read by 5! Why? Since I have been in this industry for so long, I am very particular about who gives me a reading, because I know what's out there. 

I also don't want you to be afraid of getting a psychic reading either, so I have put together a list that will help you. 



The 10 Commandments of Seeing a Psychic
 
1) Thou shall not take the psychics word as the "law of the land". God gave us free will - use it!

2) Thou shall not see a psychic more than once every 3 months (only on rare occasions). We then resort to having to tell you things like "I see you getting some new shoes". Lets face it, life does not change that quickly!

3) Thou shall not push our own intuition aside, or stop relying on it.

4) Thou shall not remove clothes or be touched for a reading (unless you are having your palm read). If this is the only way you can get a reading, find another psychic!

5) Thou shall use the psychic reading as advice or guidance.

6) Thou shall realize that no psychic is 100% accurate, therefore refer to #3 and #5.

7) Thou shall never replace a physician, financial planner or lawyer with a psychic. These are specialists trained in a specific area. Most psychics are specialized in spiritual areas and life coaching.

8) Thou shall use psychics and mediums for insight with spiritual issues, life path, loved ones passing on.

9) Thou shall use psychics to verify or clarify your own intuition. Psychics can be great teachers to help you learn how to become more in tune with your own psychic ability and develop it.

10) Thou shall trust your gut when meeting a psychic for the first time. Do not hesitate to change your mind if you are not comfortable. All psychics are different and you should look until you find one you are comfortable with. (Golden Rule)


When you have a psychic reading it should be an overall positive experience. The best in the industry can see things you should avoid or be aware of and guide you towards a better outcome. If you are left feeling:

Scared
Worried
Upset
With a stomach ache

Disregard the reading, and don't go back! These are all signs of having had a Bad Psychic Reading! And if they tell you that you need to pay them money to break or rid yourself of a curse, red flag! Not a psychic, but a con artist. Shop around, get a referral, read their books, or listen to their radio show until you get a sense of them. You can usually tell right away, just use your own intuition and never forget, #10 is the Golden Rule!
