So many times I have been asked what the difference is between a clairvoyant and a psychic. This is a good question!
But if we’re going to ask this, we have to ask also, what is the difference between an animal communicator and someone that reads for humans? What is the difference between a medical intuitive and an energetic healer? What is the difference between the various intuitive abilities?
Let’s start from the start… All abilities use one or more of the five Claire’s
The 17th century French coined the phrases we now commonly use…
Clairvoyance (clear seeing)
Claircognizance (clear knowing)
Clairaudience (clear hearing),
Clairsentience (clear feeling)
Clairalience (clear smelling)
How we use them differs with each ability.

Psychics are able to use one, some or all of these abilities to see what is happening in one’s current life…for example a medical issue, or life situation. They use their ability to guide the present moment.
A clairvoyant is able to use one or more of these abilities to see the past, present, future as well as so much more.
A medical intuitive will use one or various abilities to look into health issues anywhere anytime…mental, emotional, physical or spiritual. Whereas a hands-on healer will be able to activate any or all of these abilities while working directly with a client to heal them whether they’re using hands on techniques like reiki, crystal healing, or pure energy.
Animal communicators may use any or all of these abilities to connect to animals on the deepest of levels. So too do those working with humans. Only when they have to “tap in” they are working with the same abilities but the vibration of people rather than pets which can be heavier and activate the Clairs on different ways.
Other types of energetics also tap into these Clairs. Witches will use a myriad of abilities to raise energy in ritual and manifest energy into physical reality, which is one of their amazing gifts.
Ceremonial leaders will open themselves up to connect to their deities and energies for the good of their tribes and communities.
It’s also important to note that each energetic is works differently. One medical intuitive may have a heightened sense of Clairsentience (feel) where another may have a heightened sense of Claircognizance (the knowing). Each individual works very differently than others, which is why as intuitives it is important for us to be open to other intuitives and their sight.
Each energetic is on a different vibe. Working with others makes the picture clearer and adds to the story in front of them. This enriches the experience for both the readers and the client.
It’s also important to remember that we all use these Clairs naturally. They are a part of who we are.
The one most commonly worked with, in fact everyday, is Clairsentience. Our feel. We are all empathic. We walk into a room and we can sense what’s going on. When we say someone is “ reading the room” this is partly what we are talking about.

We are all incredibly sensitive, but we haven’t been taught how to acknowledge or recognize when an energetic event happens.
I am convinced this is part of why we are society in crisis. We acknowledge our mental and physical aspects alone, and in doing so, neglect the spiritual emotional side to our detriment.
Imagine driving and being able to see out of only out of one eye. We can only see clearly half the road, which creates stress and a sense of danger in our conscious and unconscious bodies and mind.
When we recognize that when we use our abilities is our choice and fully in our power, they become far easier to manage. They begin to feel more natural as we work with and accept them into our daily lives.
Being able to work with our Clairs, acknowledge them, and act on them in a safe meaningful way enriches us and helps us have clarity about our path, destiny and purpose. It helps us in our everyday lives when we recognize our intuition and go with it!
