Intuition or Anxiety?

How do you know what you're feeling is intuition or clair senses and not anxiety? Those butterflies in the stomach, hairs standing on end, thinking you know something, feeling dread...what enables you to differentiate between whether they are really hits from the Higher Self or if they're anxiety signals from the Ego?

Hello everyone, I hope you've had a beautiful week. In today's episode, we're going to talk about the differences between whether you're experiencing clear senses or whether you're just dealing with anxiety. Whether we can trust our intuition when our egos are so bombarded with external simulacra that what we feel in our gut may just be butterflies, or what we see may be a worry instead of a premonition, or whether what we know is simply just wishful thinking. In this podcast, I'm going to give you five signs you're getting hits from the higher self instead of having to wonder if you're just nervous about what's going on in your 3D reality. So let's start with clear cognizance or the ability to clearly know. Not what you can clearly think, but what you clearly know. When you experience clear cognizance, you get hit with a feeling of this is happening. You don't know why or how you know it, but you'd be willing to bet your life that it's the case. You know it so deeply, in fact, that it's as if it's already happened and you're just explaining what's transpired. The difference between clear cognizance and anxiety are emotions. When we have anxiety, the brain likes to create all types of worries and concerns. I know I messed up at work and now I'm going to get fired. Or I know I upset my friend and now they're not going to want to go on vacation with me. The brain is built to search for patterns in its memory bank. This is how we build our survival mechanisms. So whatever happens to us, we create a snippet of a memory and store it for later retrieval in order for the brain to protect itself. Anxiety will have the brain search for memories and patterns that convince us that what has happened before will happen again, and therefore we're in danger in some way. Claircognizance, on the other hand, is just an emotionless zing that feels like it's implanted in our consciousness. And to us, whatever we know is going to happen doesn't affect our homeostasis one bit because there is no emotion attached to it whatsoever. Now let's talk about clairvoyance. How do we tell the difference between fantasy versus clairvoyance? When we have anxiety, we can envision the worst of the world. We can see our entire worlds fall apart and crumble and what will happen to us afterwards. We can see everything we have done leading up to what we'll be and psych ourselves out even more, seeing escalating peril. Or, if we're having a pleasantly perceived fantasy, we can add elements into it that are things that we want, things we desire, things the ego needs. Premonitions, however, cannot be altered or added to. No matter how much you want to add to it, detract from it, or incorporate other elements into it, you can't. Premonitions are concrete, quick, and untouchable. This isn't to say that you can't change or touch them on the 3D plane, but they are there to fire warning shots of what's to come or what has just occurred based off of the current 3D situation. Clairvoyance is like looking at an unaltered printed photograph, just a picture of what is. When we speak about clairsentience or the ability to clearly feel, this is where it becomes the most difficult to distinguish from anxiety, since both happen primarily in the gut. We have butterflies in the stomach and we have gut feelings. So how do we differentiate? The separation comes from the duration, frequency, and type of sensations experienced. When we are experiencing clairsentience, the feeling is a quick drop of the stomach and maybe a few pulses before it leaves. It doesn't burn, churn, linger, make us nauseous, or make us run for the bathroom. If something is really feeling off and clairsentience is experienced throughout the day, it will come in bursts and not be constant. Afterwards, the stomach will feel completely fine and another clairsense may come about, such as clearcognizance or clairvoyance, so that you may interpret what the sensation is about. You may also get goosebumps, the hairs on your body standing up, or quick headaches. When it is anxiety, however, the sensation in the stomach will be frequent, constant, or come in very large waves, which can leave you feeling off all day, and the ego will attempt to figure out what it is that you're feeling. You may begin ruminating, obsessing, or get incredibly physically tired. Anxiety feels like panic, difficulty breathing, or something placed on your chest. Clairsentience feels like something is wrong. Clairsen can also lead to anxiety, since feeling like something is wrong but not knowing what can create anxiety and then the two feed into each other. It's also possible that if clairsentience is your primary clairsense, that you have an anxiety disorder because you're so used to perceiving shifts in energy so frequently. Clare audience is clearly hearing, and it can come in two ways: the sound of someone whispering into your ear, or more frequently in common, the sound of your own voice. The latter can make it difficult to delineate between clear audience and anxiety. The only way I can separate the two for you is via emotional attachment, and I'll give you an example from myself. I have what's called musical OCD, which showed up after my severe ego degradation. It pops up when I'm stressed and plays music on an endless loop in my head, a protective measure for my ego to not lose control again. Someone could say one sentence to me, and my brain will correlate it to a lyric in a song and repeatedly play the loop of a song for days on end. It wakes me up in the middle of the night. It goes on while I'm writing or talking or reading or meditating or doing anything. It is the most frustrating thing and it annoys me half to death. I get incredibly emotional about it and my want of controlling it starts to kick in. This is an emotional attachment. Now, when I'm getting a spurt of clear audience in the form of a song, the line or verse of a song will pop into my head out of nowhere and then go away. If I don't acknowledge it or pay attention to it, it will play it again and then go away. It's distant sounding, like I can hear it playing from another room with all the doors closed, compared to the musical OCD where the loop is blaring in my head. The Claire Audience version of a song doesn't trigger my brain to form emotions around it. And I know that if the song goes away immediately, it was Claire Audience and not anxiety. When you hear something in your head and you're able to easily detach from it or act on it immediately without a heightened or considered emotion, more akin to someone saying something in passing, this is Claire Audience. Clair olfactory is a difficult Claire sense to get a grasp on because smell is so ingrained in our memories that its ability to trigger them is unrivaled. In fact, it is the only sense that bypasses the brain's relay center and connects directly to the limbic system, which is where emotions are created. So the difference between Clarolfactory and anxiety is simply whether the scent is actually present in the place that you are. If you're in an elevator and a man walks in and reeks of cigar smoke, it may remind you of your grandfather who smokes cigars. And within a split second, trigger your parasympathetic nervous system into fight or flight because your brain is rehashing how that same grandfather was abusive to your grandmother that reminds you of an abusive relationship that you were in. This is anxiety based on memories and emotions retrieved by the brain. Now, if you're in an elevator and a man walks in and you smell cigar smoke in your head, not with your nose, only to find out that the floor he's getting off at is that of oncology, your cleral factory is giving you information about the energy surrounding you. How you link your sense of smell to interpretations will be different for everyone. So the next time that you believe to have a clairsense come through, pay attention to how it feels. Find commonalities between each bout of energy, and this will make it easier to delineate between anxiety or intuition. Claire senses are simply the bridge between the 3D and 5D. We all have every clairsense, and it's just about knowing how to use them. The more you trust yourself in the information coming in, the more the clair senses become prominent. Just make sure that you're honest with yourself and don't hold on to things believing that they're claire senses when they're really just anxiety cues. Ignoring anxiety is not taking care of yourself. Until next week, all of my best and highest vibrations to you.
