Different Modes of Sensing - Part 3: Clairaudience
New Ebook: Strengthening Your Clair Senses
Learn how to recognize and develop your intuitive abilities.
Clairaudience
Clairaudience comes from the French words clair (clear) and audience (the action of hearing). Put them together, and you’ve got clear hearing.
Clear hearing is the ability to receive intuitive impressions through audible sounds. You can hear your own voice internally in your head along with sounds, words, music, and tones. These sounds can have a literal or symbolic meaning.
Rarer but also possible is hearing externally, with no source for the sound. People using their Clairaudient sense may receive loud, sudden warnings or guidance when their intuition needs to get their attention right away. “Move” – to miss a falling tree, or “Stop” to avoid something unpleasant and unexpected. When young, you might have had imaginary friends that you talked to or could communicate with your pets. Unfortunately, this tends to fade if children are told repeatedly that this kind of experience is childish or even bad.
In Energy Medicine, it is determined that we all have a predominant sensory type, and a person who is regarded as more of a “Tonal” could more likely be able to get intuitive hits through hearing. How we as practitioners determine if someone is a tonal, besides kinesiology testing, would be how they describe their relationship to sound. A loud party where there is too much noise might make them feel tired, irritable, ungrounded, or even give them a headache. Loud, sudden noises might make them jump out of their skin.
In Energy Medicine, Clairaudience is deemed to be ruled by the throat chakra, which is the chakra that controls communication. When this chakra is balanced and open, it allows messages to be received. Exercises to open and strengthen this chakra will help with this intuitive ability. Singing or humming different sounds at different pitches, called toning, is a great way to do both. You can use your hands to physically open up the throat area by stretching the neck, by pulling your throat area apart with the tips of your fingers in a vertical motion. Using one hand to stretch upwards towards the chin and one hand to stretch in opposition, going downwards towards the chest. You would continue this same motion, moving slowly all around all the different sections of the throat area.
Being a master Remote Viewer, I have had many sessions in which I have had several Clairaudient experiences. It has happened when I have been tasked to view an event or a place, either in the past or somewhere current around the world, that had significant noise going on. I have heard foghorns, war-type explosions, crying or wailing sounds, and even nature sounds like birds squawking or ocean waves lapping against the shore.
David Morehouse, PhD, developed an “Explorers” level for trained viewers who were capable of doing service, medical, science, or business targets commissioned by persons, groups, or organizations. One science target I participated in was to explore Electronic Voice Phenomenon (EVP)and to determine whether it was real or not. During this particular session, I did a hybrid version of Remote Viewing called Extended Remote Viewing, where you lie down and go into a deep theta brain wave state. In the middle of this session, 8 other viewers and I all sat up at the same time after hearing a man’s voice yell out loudly in the middle of the room. It was startling and literally jolted me out of my relaxed session. I was so surprised that I lifted my face mask only to discover several others similarly disconcerted sitting up, looking around for where the noise had come from. The room was a controlled setting where it was impossible for there to have been this type of noise interruption, and yet there was a loud sound heard by ¼ of the group. This scientific experiment was deemed non-conclusive as the recorded tapes had not picked up the voice, but for us who had heard the man’s yell, we understood that the technology being used was obviously not capable of picking up the sound we all heard. Clairaudience is the ability to hear beyond the “normal” range.
Clairaudience is a gift, but it can be scary to hear a voice in the middle of the night, or when you’re alone somewhere, when you least expect it. Clairaudient people sometimes believe they’re going off the deep end or having a psychotic episode. However, there is a huge difference between a psychotic episode and having a 6th sensory moment. Psychotic episodes involve leaving behind reality and moving into another level of awareness. Intuitive experiences enhance the existing reality while still functioning in the normal reality. The 6th sensory experience is a focused event that occurs from time to time and positively guides you in a particular direction. If you hear voices that are critical, harmful, or violent, or if you have a constant ringing in your ears, be sure to speak to a health professional. Always use your common sense.
I have had several occasions when, just waking up from being asleep, I have heard the voice of different family members who had recently passed away. They have always had some profound message to give me that has helped settle something I’d been deliberating about and given me peace of mind about their passing. I once stayed at a friend’s place that had once been a hospice, in the past, and I had struggled sleeping during the night because it sounded like people were socializing downstairs. When I spoke to my friends in the morning, they said they had gone to bed at the same time I had. It became apparent that I had picked up on the sounds that had once been common in the house from its past that had been energetically imprinted into the space.
When I think of one of my dear friends who passed away from cancer a few years ago, I hear her voice laughing loudly in my head. We had many discussions over the years about death and the afterlife, and her laughter has been very reassuring and comforting.
Other signs of being Clairaudient are talking to yourself when no one else is around. Possibly while doing chores, or when you need to be calmed down, or just chatting to yourself about your own life. Hearing high-pitched tones when you’re about to go to sleep, hearing people whispering at a distance, or being sensitive to sounds that others don’t hear.
I have always been teased for having an adverse reaction to hearing someone chew their food. You might be able to hear the hum from a building, or a buzz from a tree. All these sounds will make you turn your ears towards it rather than looking for where it is coming from. Everything that exists has a vibration. Colours, water, rocks, humans, animals, emotions, and some people can hear these vibrations.
People who are Clairaudients need quiet time. Head-cancelling earphones and meditation practice are great tools for these types of people. Music connects them to their soul, relieves stress, and uplifts their mood. They may be musically inclined and be inspired by lyrics that tune into their emotions and feelings.
If you want to heighten your Clairaudient senses, try focusing on the sounds you hear in a quiet space. Sit comfortably in a quiet room and use your imagination. Try imagining sounds, such as hearing an instrument playing, or imagine a favourite song, or the voice of a loved one. Practice this for a few minutes each day until it’s easy for you to imagine the sounds in your mind. It will expand your range of hearing and bring a new depth to the act of listening.
