claircognizance
the last of the 4 main clairs is claircognizance, aka clear knowing.
When an individual has the gift of claircognizance, the “messages” transmitted to the other clairs were perceived through the senses; sight, hearing, and feeling. This is where claircognizance is different, as the information is inherently recognized and absorbed through the brain. Like a straight dose of LSD to the blood brain barrier.
Claircognizance shows up through
Inability to logically explain how you know information prior to receiving any intel.
Randomly experiencing this sense of knowing when something considerably good, bad, or weird is going to happen and then watching it materialize
Occasionally waking up in the middle of the night to an epiphany; suddenly gaining insight that demands to be recorded
People close to you trust your intuition and opinion over logic and reason. Basically a human intention reader. Other’s trust their ability to make accurate snap judgements.
Proclivity toward gathering information, reading and writing
Needing to know how and why; maintaining a healthy amount of cynicism
Being drawn toward categorizing and using systems to sort. This explains why they also enjoy astrology and numerology.
Speaking wisdom at the same rate of their typical word vomit. A knack for saying exactly what you need, when you need it, in the manner you need it spoken. Others crave their advice.
Enjoying analysis and logical thinking. It’s easy to feel crazy when you often know what’s up or what’s next, so claircognizant peeps often fact check themselves
Your hunches are entirely too specific and intense. Honestly, out here reading people like books
dripping in creative energy. Lots of messages = lots of muses
And last, claircognizant people more than likely receive messages through one of the other clairs.
Claircognizant folk can pull a conversation out of your head before you even mention the topic. Often they’ll finish your sentences for you, or have an immediate answer to your dense question. They somehow are the first one to reach out after your aunt died, called that you'd marry your partner before you’d even been on a date, and know where you misplaced that item even though they haven’t been to your house in over a month. This gift is pretty freaky tbh.
Some practices to enhance your claircognizance include
One of my favs, Automatic writing. (at the time of drafting this lesson i literally breaked for automatic writing-practice what you preach and allat- and busted out some delicious content). Automatic writing is the act of journaling your stream of consciousness without bias toward the work pouring out. This practice helps us vomit internalized ideas up so we can see what limiting ideas were working with. Sometimes you gotta journal out some pee pee poo poo nonsense before you get to the good shit (lol). Take note of the themes.
2. Stop asking the universe for more signs of confirmation and calculate based on your inner knowledge. Actively practice accommodating for yourself when you're hit with a download. When you’re randomly struck with the feeling of “I shouldnt go” dont fucking go. You're like the idiot in every horror flick if you run toward the sense of discomfort. Actively practice feeling out your hunches. If you get the feeling a certain friend needs a 3 am words of affirmation filled text message, you better get to typing. Say it with me, if our guts are speaking, we're listening.
Use a pendulum to interpret the energies and get a physical confirmation. Chances are your claircognizant ass will likely hear the answer before the pendulum can complete its first swing. Just to be clear- a pendulum is a tool used in divination to decipher answers to questions. Just ask it to show you yes -wait for the swing-, no -wait for the change of the swing and there it is-, and the I don't know -wait for the swing once more and you're ready to ask your questions, champ. Beginners should start by asking daily questions, like “Am I going to enjoy dinner with the homies tonight?”; “Am I going to get another spam call today from 30 information sharing websites that [REDACTED] signed me up for?”; “Is Ryan Reynolds the sexiest man alive?” -It's pertinent to get an obvious answer every now and then.
