Ah, This Is My Place: Nurturing My Inner Geomantic Empath

Essentially, empathy is the ability to put oneself into another person’s shoes, and feel what someone else is feeling. You understand what your friends are going through, and their feelings and energy can be quite contagious, either affecting you positively or adversely.  If you possess such qualities, you are probably an empath.

Claircognizant empaths have the all-encompassing gift of all-knowing. You understand the intricacies of the world and the meaning of our purpose and existence in life. You often get a sense of deja-vu and you may experience bursts of inspiration, constantly receiving and absorbing information throughout the day. You are quick-witted and intelligent.  You don’t know why you seem to have the answers to everything, and why your friends keep coming to you, but they will describe you as sage and wise anyway.

You are very sensitive to the emotions of others, and you can feel other people’s emotional pain.

You can feel people’s physical pain and ailments, and you instinctively know if someone is physically ill.

You are very attuned to the pain and suffering of animals, and you seek to prevent any pain or suffering, if possible. You know how to communicate with animals like the dog or cat whisperer. You would probably make a good vet or animal activist.

Tarot readers and those who are drawn to the occult may fall into this category. Medium empaths have an intimate connection with the spiritual world, and they are able to sense unseen forces at work. They may be able to sense certain energies and auras, and they may be able to talk to the deceased. Because of this, medium empaths may have a tenuous grip on reality.

Just by looking at a physical object, or ancient artifact, you would be able to derive useful and comprehensive information about it, as well as the memories and energy contained in the object. Whether it is an old earring, a yellowed/tattered photograph, or an abandoned wedding gown, you are able to analyze its origins.

You may have prophetic visions and dreams, as well as a very strong sixth sense. Generally, your dreams will contain signs and symbols which can be used to interpret or predict events in the future. You are able to use your abilities to forewarn your friends about a bad premonition, whether it is an event or a place.

A lot of us would feel empathetic if we know that our friends are going through a hard time, or we heard about bad news on the radio. But would we go the extra mile to help someone? Empaths are highly sensitive to other people's emotions and they feel emotions very deeply compared to the average person. However, they can use these traits to their advantage. If we all showed each other a bit more kindness, the world would be a better place.
