My spiritual journey hasn’t been that long, but the amount of growth and development is astounding. Almost as if time doesn’t exist (which, on some level, is true).

To anyone out there who’s at the beginning of said journey, you would’ve probably heard about the “clairs” and “clair senses” thrown around as well as the different chakras.

These concepts, at first, can awaken the skeptic in you or even daunt you. But if you keep an open mind, they’re actually quite fun to explore.

I quickly accepted that yes, other people were gifted with any (or all) of the clair senses. I, on the other hand, was simply a rando dipping my toes into the sacred pool of magic. Here to observe, not to engage.

But lo and behold, tarot came into the picture.

It wasn’t a “struck by lightning” sort of moment. Like the minute I touched a tarot card, I suddenly got visions That’s So Raven style.

It was a gradual process – I had the pleasure of uncovering layers of my clair senses and the different chakras, hand in hand.

Clairsentience, or “clear feeling”, is the clair sense that is the strongest in me. I experience the other clair senses every once in a while, but clairsentience is definitely the one that is prominent.

The more I did readings for people, the more I got to dial in to my clairsentience. I would feel strong surges of energy in specific places of the body.

Coincidentally (but not so coincidentally lol), I was dabbling a little bit in the 7 chakras. So, during the readings, I would mention the respective chakras that seem to be affecting my client and explain what issues they may need to address based on the extent of my knowledge at the time.

And every single person resonated with it. They would thank me for the deeper insight besides the spread. That whatever it was that I was tapping into was helpful. It’s what made me, as a tarot reader, unique.

That, to me, was and will always be magical.

I’m not gonna lie though – it felt intrusive at first (hello, sacral chakra energy? HELP HAHAHAHA).

But I was reminded by more than a couple of friends that my clients paid for the service and my clairsentience is a part of that service. It’s all good.

Each person has different energies and that’s what makes it interesting on my end. It’s like a box of chocolates – you never know what you’re going to get. Which can be a bit of a double-edged sword.

At the end of the day, it’s about using discernment as well. You can’t just have a free-for-all when it comes to a lot of aspects in life, more so in spirituality.

Fast forward to the present and my clair senses are stronger. More importantly, my belief in myself and my abilities too. One can have the skills, but the trust and confidence in yourself makes it elevated.

Then, I stumbled upon an opportunity to try a Reiki healing session (thanks, Nic ily). It’s an experience that’s always been at the back of my mind, but for some reason, my intuition kept telling me, “Not yet.”

As far as I know, there aren’t any organizations that offer Reiki healing in the south of Metro Manila. Just Treehouse Yoga. So, y’all know I booked that session faster than the speed of lightning.

And the experience was absolutely amazing. A++ would highly recommend, especially if you’re curious about energy healing!

T. Jinky was a pleasant delight and I loved how she conducted everything – from the overview of the Reiki healing session and intention setting (we pulled oracle cards, which was awesome) before the proper session, to the processing of feelings and intuitive downloads after.

I felt lighter, clearer about myself and my points of improvement. At the same time, reassured that the other great things I’ve been doing I should continue.

Everything really is energy. Should you choose to heal yours, it’ll help you in so many ways. Think of it as spiritual therapy.

The point of the matter is I truly believe that we ALL have the capability of being “psychic” by learning about our clair senses and understanding the chakras.

Because as I always say, we’re spiritual beings going through the human experience, not the other way around.

Spiritual entities with a human body. It’s just a matter of how open are you to tapping into those otherworldly abilities.

Some people don’t like it and would rather not get into it, and that’s okay. That’s their journey. But if you, yourself, are called to search within, then have at it! You are not alone.

Trust your gut. Lean into your intuition more. At your own pace and at your own time.

Above all else, have faith. Whether it’s with a higher being, yourself, or a team of unconditionally loving spiritual entities. Better yet, every one of those.

Your inner knowing will never leave you astray. And in the grander scheme of things, you’re never losing anything by following your inner voice.
