11 Signs You Might be Clairaudient - from Intuitive Souls

One of the gifts that people can get is clairaudience. That is, the ability to hear earthbound ghosts or spirits who have crossed over. I recently came across a blog by Intuitive Souls, and found this interesting blog on the topic. 

 11 Signs You Might be Clairaudient 

By Jessica https://intuitivesoulsblog.com/clairaudient/ 

 There are many clairaudient people who don’t even know they have this cool intuitive gift. Are you one of them? Let’s find out. :) 

Signs that you might be clairaudient 

1. Hear someone saying your name when no one is around Does it ever seem like you hear people talking, but no one is around? Maybe you hear soft voices in the background or could have SWORN you heard someone saying your name. If this happens to you, it’s a pretty good indicator that you’re clairaudient. You see, when you have psychic hearing, you can hear things that other people can’t. It may be a soft, subtle sound (like music), or something more dramatic (like a voice). 

 2. You enjoy and need quiet?   Intuitive people are usually sensitive, both emotionally and physically. Because of this, you may be sensitive to noise if you’re clairaudient. For example, a loud party or TV may make you feel like you are going to crawl out of your skin! Personally, this is my only complaint about being clairaudient. Too much noise may also make you feel: tired irritable ungrounded (learn how to ground yourself) or give you a headache And believe me, I know it can be frustrating when your family doesn’t understand how sensitive your psychic causes you to be… and that’s why it’s SUPER important for clairaudients to have quiet time every day. You may even like to try noise canceling headphones or practice meditation. 

 3. You talk to yourself often?  Talking to yourself often is another clairaudient sign. So let me ask you… Do you have conversations with yourself in your head ALL the time? If so, it could mean that clairaudience is one of your dominant intuitive gifts. Why? Well, since you are already good at “being in your head,” it will be easy for you to learn how to tap into your psychic hearing. And… If you talk to yourself a lot, you’re likely getting Divine guidance without even realizing it! 

 4. Ideas and creativity flow through you.  If you’re clairaudient it can feel normal to have creative or inspired ideas that flow through you. This is especially true when you are feeling relaxed, joyful, or grateful. This is because when you are happy, your vibration is high and you are most connected to your soul! And… This is why clairaudient people seek quiet. We intuitively know that we can connect with Divine guidance when our mind is quiet. Pro tip: It’s common for people with psychic hearing to get inspired ideas while taking a shower! Try bathtub crayons so you don’t forget any of the guidance you get! :) 

 5. Your best friends were imaginary. imaginary friends aren’t imaginary. Au contraire! “Imaginary” friends can be angels, Spirit guides, and even departed loved ones. So if you talked imaginary friends as a child, you are probably clairaudient! Yay! 

6. Music makes you feel connected to your soul. The other day, Tom Petty was on TV talking about how music comes from the soul. Yes! When I’m stressed, it’s usually because my soul needs something and I’m not listening. That’s when I get in my car, hop on the nearest country road, and play music that I love! Within a few minutes, my vibration lifts and I feel reconnected to my soul. If music moves you to this extent, you may be clairaudient. 

  Tip: Psychic hearing is ONE of the FOUR ways that we can receive intuitive information. And when you think about it, it makes total sense that clairaudient people are SO moved by music! If you have psychic hearing you may also: Be musically inclined or play music by ear Write music. You may even hear the music before you write it, or feel that it’s inspired by a higher power. On a side note… if you start seeing pictures in your head to match the song lyrics, it may also mean you are clairvoyant!

 7. You’re the “Dear Abby” of the family. Do you enjoy guiding and uplifting others? Do people tell you that you should charge money for giving advice or that you have a “gift”? Do people call you to “vent” because you words are so soothing? If so, you could be channeling Divine wisdom and not even realize it. This is of the most beautiful ways to use your clairaudient gifts! 

 8. Hear ringing or high-pitched noises in your ears clairaudience signs.

When I hear a high-pitched tone in my ear, I know my Spirit guide is around. If this happens to you, (and there is no medical cause), your Spirit Guides or angels are around, too! Oh and you may also hear buzzing or feel your ears “pop.” But don’t worry. If it bothers you just ask your guides to turn down the volume! 

 9. You learn through the auditory channel .Your preferred way of learning can be a clue about which psychic gifts you have. For example, many clairaudient people learn best through hearing. So you may enjoy listening to a book on Audible rather than reading a book. 

 10. You can hear animals.  Hearing animals doesn’t mean they start talking like Mr. Ed, instead, it’s like blocks of thought that pop into your mind. Here’s an example… I was petting my cat one day when a thought popped into my head that my daughter was telling our kitty secrets! I mentioned this to my daughter and she shrieked, “He did! Did he tell you what my secret is?” :) 

 11. You get “signs” in song and speech. Signs can make you feel connected to Spirit, feel validated, and are fun to look for. And best yet? Signs can come to us in all different ways. So try asking your Spirit Guides or loved ones in heaven for a sign. Then, take notice of how they come through for you. Does the guidance you’ve been seeking come through in the next song that plays on the radio? Or do you find yourself saying, “Funny you should say that,” when a stranger says exactly what you need to hear? If so, these are traits of clairaudience. So what do you think? Are you clairaudient? How many of the signs do you have?

Paranormal Q&A: Is this something that you practice constantly?

Each week, I'll answer a question about the paranormal, whether a general question, or one about human or animal ghosts (Earthbound) or spirits (crossed over). Here's this week's question: 

Q: Is this something that you practice constantly, or do you only do medium work when it is called upon?

A: Good question!  I don't practice. Ghosts (earthbound) and Spirits (who crossed over) come to me when they come to me.  

Ghosts of England by Rob Gutro

The only times I actually focus to tune in is when I get emails from people who find me on-line or have read my books and ask me about someone (person or pet) who has passed. Then I concentrate. 

Same as when I go into a private residence on a paranormal investigation to try and help the ghost. Otherwise I can usually block the messages out when I get preoccupied or concentrate on something. The exception however, was during my two trips to England where there are a bevy of ghosts from history and many of them called to me and gave me messages and clues to their identities and why they were still lingering on Earth as a ghost. I wrote about that in my new book "Ghosts of England: On a Medium's Vacation."

Hever Castle's Ghostly Encounter:- (video and book) Ghosts of England on a Medium's Vacation

In my book "Ghosts of England on a Medium's Vacation" by Rob Gutro, I wrote about my encounter with a ghost named "George" when I entered Hever Castle in the United Kingdom. Having no knowledge of the castle, and no idea who it was, I learned it was Queen Anne Boleyn's brother, who met a fateful end under the rule of Henry VIII, George shared a number of personal things with me and accompanied me through Hever Castle, acting as a ghostly tour guide. This video that I made outside the castle captures some of that, and the rest is in the book!

ABOUT "GHOSTS OF ENGLAND ON A MEDIUM'S VACATION by Rob Gutro:

What happens when a medium goes on vacation? Can a medium simply switch off their ability at will? Well…not exactly. Rob Gutro is a medium/author/paranormal investigator and a scientist who has written 4 books about his encounters with human and animal ghosts and spirits. In this book, you will read about his experiences on two separate trips to the United Kingdom. England’s rich history and many epic battles have caused an over-abundance of residual emotional energy. Everywhere he traveled, he had a paranormal experience. He explored royal palaces and spent the night in haunted castles. He encountered the ghosts of historical figures including a queen, a prince, and a nobleman; and several ghosts even shared their pain of death experience with him. On one occasion, the doppelganger of a loved one provided directions when he became lost while driving in the countryside due to a malfunctioning GPS.

Hampton Court Palace

But not all of his encounters were of the human variety: there was also a very special visit from a canine ghost. This book is intended to be more than just a collection of personal ghost stories. In addition to relating my ghostly encounters, he has also included a short narrative history of the places where the experiences occurred. After all, knowing the history of a place is key to understanding why a ghost has decided to stay behind. So, join Rob as he relates his encounters with the ghosts of England. Rob has written 4 other books about the paranormal, two about people (Ghosts and Spirits and Lessons Learned From Talking to the Dead) and 2 about pets (Pets and the Afterlife and Pets and the Afterlife 2). The books are available in paperback and e-book on Amazon.com.

Important Tidbits When Having a Mediumship Reading

 This week's blog is from my friend and amazing medium, Barb Mallon. Barb published the following in her newsletter (www.barbmallon.com) and I think it's really important to share with everyone who is considering going to a medium to connect with a loved one in spirit. - Rob

 

A FEW BUT IMPORTANT TIDBITS WHEN HAVING A MEDIUMSHIP READING

         

 Recently, I've had more people than usual not understand how a medium works, how the process works or why they don't hear what they wish to hear in a session.  I've even had clients tell me how they'd like me to read for them with no "ifs," "ands," or "buts" allowed.   I truly can't dictate a reading, nor can I conform how I work to fit someone else's expectations.  It's really always best to understand how a psychic or medium works, know what to expect in advance, and to get good references, rather than be too "on guard."  Here are a few pointers!  :)

1. Allow the psychic or medium to work in the way THEY need to work.  Understandably, there are many charlatans out there, and you really DO need to be wary of the "generals" in a reading (and if you feel the psychic isn't connecting with you, and giving vague info, DO let them know and possibly even stop the session.)  It's always best to go into a session relaxed and open to info and messages, not to hear what you want to hear or connect to that exact person in spirit.   Let the psychic or medium do their job in the way they need to do it, leave expectations at the door and your session will more than likely flow much better.  As I told one lady this month, you don't go into the doctors' office and tell the doctor how to examine you, or a lawyer how to work on your case.  The psychic needs to conduct a reading the way they need to.
   
   
2. Try to go to a psychic or medium who has been referred to you by someone who has had a good experience.  If you don't know of anyone who's been to a psychic, try to find a site on the internet with fair reviews on the psychic.  While testimonials are nice on a psychics website, you really don't know for sure they are legitimate, so it's a good idea not to choose a psychic because of his or her own website testimonials.  
   
   
3. Don't call or write a psychic or medium for a freebie or "test" mini reading.  Most valid mediums I know need to prepare with prayer, meditation and ritual before opening up to spirit, spirit guides or the angelic realm.  It's not fair to expect a medium to connect on the spot... we have lives too!  :)
   
   
4. Try not to rate a psychic or medium with "hits" or "misses."  There will ALWAYS be information not understood during a session that a psychic will "leave you" with.  These are not necessarily "misses," and are usually understood at a later time.  There will always be validations that occur AFTER the session is over when the unknowns in a reading are discovered!
   
   
5. During a session, if a psychic or medium tells you things about yourself, it's a good thing!  I've had people tell me, "yes, I know this about myself... so?"  Well, I DON'T!  This means the psychic is connecting with your energy and if that's the case, should be able to link with your people in spirit as well, if that's what you're looking for.  We know YOU know things about yourself, but a psychic doesn't know anything about you, so this is a good indication that a link has been established between you and the psychic.
   
   
6. For medium sessions where a psychic links to your people in spirit, it's important to allow the process to unfold in the way spirit would like it to.  Allow them to bring through ANY pieces of info, even if it seems "trivial" or "insignificant" to you.  Example:  Me:  (laughing...) "wow, he tells me he always late, correct?"  Client: (shrugging shoulders...) "yes, he was always late, so????"   Again, YOU may know this about your spirit person, but the medium doesn't, and this is very important.  The spirit person will give the medium anything - seemingly insignificant things, or very significant things - to prove to you it's them!   They are all little puzzle pieces of information about themselves that you'll put together to understand and identify a spirit person.
   
   
7. On that same note, don't feel a medium hasn't connected with your spirit person just because that ONE thing you asked them to bring through in your reading didn't come through.  I can tell someone 50 things about their spirit person with "yes" to all of them, but because that one item didn't come through, the client will disqualify the fact that it was the spirit person they thought it was.  This is so unfair to spirit and the process as they work VERY hard to get as much to you about themselves as possible, and then any messages THEY feel they'd like to give you.  If you don't hear that one particular thing, it's ok.  DO remember to collect all they DID give to you, know they did the best they could and thank them.
   
   
   
8. Spirit people will also tell you what YOU did today, last week, yesterday, etc.  Why?  To show they DO visit often and are aware of your life!  Again, these can be just silly little things such as you ordering pizza or dropping a bowl on the ground.  The medium doesn't know you did this, but your spirit people do!
   
   
9. Understand that a medium is given information quickly, symbolically and that their guides use what the medium has stored in their brain for references/evidence to give to you.  Don't try to make it fit or hang on the exact thing you're waiting for.  Example:  "I'm seeing the time when I closed the door on my cats tail. Your dad is bringing my experience up because you must have had the same kind of experience.  Does this make sense?"   Normally, it either very closely makes sense for the spirit person or you, and they'll bring this up to give you another puzzle piece.  If you had a similar experience and understand what they are TRYING to relay, it's best to acknowledge it.

   

   
   

   
   
10. It's ok to say "no, that doesn't make sense for him/her."  You won't hurt the mediums feelings!  The medium can and should ask for clarification if something doesn't make sense to you.  Normally, it means that two energies may be blending, and that another spirit person is trying to come through.  Remember too, that some info isn't validated until later.
    
    All in all?  Being an open skeptic is best.  Don't reach for everything and make it fit, and don't be so insistent that only certain people or info should come through.  Understand that it is a process, and for me, it's much like playing charades when I can barely see, feel or hear them.  The connection may be very strong or somewhat light depending on many variables, and we do the best we can to snag that evidential info from them and pass it along to you.  So, just try to let the medium do their work and the spirit people or guides do their work as well.  This will allow the session to unfold in the way it was meant to!

What is The Legend of the Haunted Dutchman?

Thanks to  "Haunted Salem" - I'm republishing their story about the legend of the Flying Dutchman. I've always been fascinated by this legend, having grown up in the northeast, and wanted to share it with you, too.  Please visit and like the Haunted Salem Facebook page, too! There are lots of interesting things from a town known for the infamous Witch Trials (which were all just false hysteria).  Enjoy this legend! - Rob

What is the Flying Dutchman Legend?
A ship that has been cursed to sail the ocean for eternity, The Flying Dutchman is considered by sailors to be one of the worst possible omens. In some stories anyone who sets eyes on it will die a horrible death. In others the crew of The Flying Dutchman will try to give letters to any ship that hails it. These letters are always addressed to people who have long been dead and touching any of the letters will bring you great misfortune. The captain of the Flying Dutchman is believed to be Captain Benard Fokke who was known for his impressive sailing speed, so much so it was believed that he was in league with the devil.

There have been many theories about the origin of The Flying Dutchman. In most cases the crew and captain of the ship were guilty of a horrible crime which lead to them being punished by condemning them to sail the sea forever. In other tales it is a dutch ship that was lost off The Cape of Good Hope in 1641. Sightings of the ship date back to the 17th century but 19th and 20th century sightings claim that the ship was surrounded by a ghostly light. One documented sighting was by Prince George of Wales when he was teenager and on a three year voyage:

"At 4 a.m. the Flying Dutchman crossed our bows. A strange red light as of a phantom ship all aglow, in the midst of which light the masts, spars and sails of a brig 200 yards distant stood out in strong relief as she came up on the port bow, where also the officer of the watch from the bridge clearly saw her, as did the quarterdeck midshipman, who was sent forward at once to the forecastle; but on arriving there was no vestige nor any sign whatever of any material ship was to be seen either near or right away to the horizon, the night being clear and the sea calm. Thirteen persons altogether saw her … At 10.45 a.m. the ordinary seaman who had this morning reported the Flying Dutchman fell from the fore topmast cross trees on to the top gallant forecastle and was smashed to atoms."

Paranormal Q&A: How do you know if you're picking up words from a spirit ?

Each week, I'll answer a question about the paranormal, whether a general question, or one about human or animal ghosts (Earthbound) or spirits (crossed over). Here's this week's question: 

Q: How might one know, if they're really picking up words from a spirit (or loved one that has passed),or if it's all in their mind? (maybe because they knew this person so well)...

  

A: Good question! Spirits (those who crossed over as opposed to ghosts who chose to remain Earthbound) usually come around on birthdays, anniversaries or holidays (and sometimes a week or two away from those events). So, if you "hear something" that you think may be from spirit, check if one of those special times is near.

   Spirits will also tell us a word or give us a clue about something we would not know about, forcing us to ask someone else they know to make sense of it. Messages from spirit, and mediumship are puzzles that we have to put together.

  Also, if you find yourself suddenly thinking about something that is tied to someone in spirit, it's likely that the spirit influenced you to think about it out of the blue. Spirits can also influence us to drive down different streets at a given time to avoid an accident.

   Try to think back, too, to see if someone mentioned the object recently, because that may trigger the word in your head. If that's the case, it's not a message from spirit, just something you're remembering.

A Recap and Nice Compliment from last night's interview

Last evening I was a guest on Paramania Radio's "On the Horizon" with hosts Brock Burroughs and Vicki Johns. Not only did we talk about my latest book, Case Files of Inspired Ghost Tracking," but I received a really nice compliment about my "Kindred Spirits" book.

I've been fortunate enough to join Vicki and Brock on many occasions and discuss my other books.

Last night we talked about earthbound ghosts versus spirits who have crossed over, and touched upon some of the experiences in my latest book "Case Fires from Inspired Ghost Tracking." Vicki is a medium, so she and I can relate about our interactions with ghosts or spirits. Brock mentioned Ouija boards and we covered that topic as well as a case in the book where a Ouija board was used in a home and opened a portal, bringing in a lot of dark energy that physically sickened people who lived in the home.
     Brock paid me a nice compliment about my book "Kindred Spirits: How a Medium Befriended a Spirit" when he said he didn't want the book to end. I was very touched by that.
  The good news is that Ed's spirit, the topic of the book, is still very much around me and has been his active self. In fact, after I published the "Kindred Spirits" book last year, I already began writing "Kindred Spirits 2."
WHAT KINDRED SPIRITS IS ABOUT: 
     Kindred Spirits is about my husband's late partner that has been with us since I met my husband in 2005, and I've grown to know Ed so well from the other side, that I consider him a close friend. You''ll learn about that in the book, as well has how he solved the mystery around his own death, and how he sent a look-alike to rescue us when we got lost in the English countryside. He was there when our dog Sprite passed, and has given many signs to us and his family. Since it's also PRIDE MONTH, it's a perfect book to read and get "In the Spirit of Pride"

WHAT CASE FILES OF INSPIRED GHOST TRACKING IS ABOUT: 
Case Files of Inspired Ghost TrackingWhen earth bound ghosts have traumatized families in their own homes, Inspired Ghost Tracking (IGT) of Maryland has gone in to cross them over. In this collection of IGT cases, you’ll read about a very haunted Maryland mansion, many ghosts of Baltimore’s Federal Hill, the Burned Ghost, ghosts of two different time periods in one building, the dark things Ouija boards brought into homes, a ghostly attachment, a Steelworker’s ghost, poltergeist activity, the famous IGT “Double Murder Ghost Investigation” and many more. You’ll also learn about ghosts vs. spirits, energy and lots of Q&A. So, come along with us on these IGT investigations and learn that the paranormal is quite active!
