What is Empathic ClairSentiment?
Have you ever had an emotion come over you out of nowhere, with no clear reason, and thought: “Where is this even coming from?” If so, you may have been experiencing Empathic ClairSentiment – feeling someone else’s emotional feelings as though they were your own.
What Is Empathic ClairSentiment (and How Is It Different from ClairSentiment)?
We’ve already talked about ClairSentiment – your soul’s own emotional pulse on a place, situation, or experience. Empathic ClairSentiment is different. It’s when you make an energetic link, consciously or unconsciously, and pick up how someone else is feeling emotionally. You are feeling their emotions – not your read on a situation, but their actual emotional experience – as if it’s yours.

This can happen with one person, a group, an animal, even a non-vocal person who can’t articulate what they’re going through. I’ve used it with clients, with my team, in teaching gigs, and in mediumship sessions. Your soul is always picking up and reading the vibe – whether you’re aware of it or not. What I want is for you to be empowered by this, not frazzled by it.
How You Can Use Empathic ClairSentiment
With all the 11 Soul Senses, you can have this happen passively – suddenly you’re feeling something that doesn’t belong to you – or you can actively engage it. When it hits, name the emotion and follow the thread. Where is this coming from? Is it mine or is it theirs? And once you know it’s theirs – what are you supposed to do with it? Sometimes it’s just be kinder to them. Sometimes you’re meant to say something. Sometimes you’re just supposed to offer a quiet prayer.
The most important practice here is energetic hygiene. Any time you’ve made an empathic link, clear afterwards: “I release and detach all energy that is in truth not mine. I claim back to me all energy that is mine.” And remember – if you keep thinking about them, you keep the link open. So clear, return to yourself, AND make it a practice to discern whose emotions are whose as they arise throughout your day.
