Psychic Empaths: Can They Sense What You Feel?

By Tana Hoy

Was there ever a time that you've felt overwhelmed by emotions at restaurants, movies, parties, or in crowds? Do you have weird swift changes in moods around certain people? Was there ever a time that you felt an abrupt energy drain around another person? How about feeling physical symptoms of those around you? If your response to each one of these is a yes, you might be one of those gifted psychic empaths!

Empathy: The Psychic Gift of "Feeling"

Empathy belongs to the most famous types of the clairsentient psychic gift. It is the ability which allows the person to get psychic feelings or impressions. Empathy is more than just the psychic ability that enables a person to sense energies; it literally lets the individual feel its effects within their own body. In other words, when someone has an experience and they have a physical or emotional reaction, you instantly "experience it" too.

In general, empathy is the simplest type of psychic information to receive. Then again, it is additionally the hardest to define, since you also must be clear about whether what you're feeling is yours, or if you are picking it up from somebody, from someplace, or from something else.

Involuntary vs. Voluntary Empathy

A psychic empath is a person who is very sensitive to various energies and its related vibrations. Empathy either can be voluntary or involuntary by origin.

The Involuntary Empath

Clearly, from the word itself "involuntary", this kind of empathy refers to one wherein people can unconsciously pick-up the energy vibrations without them intending to do so. In other words, you're similar to this walking "psychic energy sponge" and you tend to unintentionally absorb how people feel, even their problems!

The Voluntary Empath

This sort of empathy is in the event the person either can choose to accept the energies around him, or stop them through his auric field. To be a voluntary empath is the term for people who have mastered how to use their special psychic gift and even control it (e.g. like psychic readers or psychic mediums).

Psychic Empathy: A Blessing or a Curse?

Just like any psychic gift, empathy goes along with its benefits and drawbacks. If someone doesn't embrace this unique ability, he may find himself problematic and disturbed frequently -- picture how it would be to literally know and feel what most people are feeling!

On the other hand, being an empath is also something very special. Empaths are known to be very understanding, caring, and sensitive individuals; not to mention, empaths make great spiritual advisors.

Mastering Empathy: Is it Of great benefit?

Is there any reason to embrace and master the empathic power? It is relatively simple -- ask yourself, would you like to unintentionally carry all the world's woes and emotional baggage? Surely that you do not, right? This can be one major answer why it's important to control this unique ability. Everyone can figure out how to control their inborn empathic gifts. You just simply need the right combination of practice, dedication, and guidance.

Don't forget, every entity on this Earth has an innate psychic gift. Who knows, you might be an empath without you knowing it!
