Psychic Sense of Smell

Clairalience is the psychic sense of smelling, (also known as clairescence). A person with this form of extra-sensory perception is able to smell energy or gain psychic knowledge through the physical sense of smell. Most of the time, they are the only person in a group/space who is able to smell the etheric fragrance. 

We know that energy can take many forms. It has color, vibration, and sound waves. Some people can see energy, hear in other realms, and feel energy very keenly. So, it makes sense that we could smell energy as well.  The ability to smell energy is referred to as claireolfactory or claireolfactant because it is believed that the olfactory nerve is involved in perceiving these astral smells. 

 

Smelling energy is a great tool for discernment. I encourage you to ask what message your guidance is giving you when you have one of these “aromatic” experiences.

The gift of clairolfaction or clairolfactance can be useful for discerning spirits. One may “smell a skunk” so to speak or sense an unpleasant odor coming from a person who has detrimental energy in their field or sickness in their body. But, it is not just the foul odor of contamination that can be sensed by those who have this ability. Some people have reported smelling roses, lilacs, or other heavenly fragrances associated with angels–especially when a loved one passes. My husband and I are both able to smell cigarette smoke when the spirit of a particular “deceased” loved one visits our home.

I remember being able to smell my own soul essence when I was in my twenties and thirties. I missed being able to smell this beautiful aroma after I had a significant soul shift in 1999. Soon the ability to tap into my personal soul signature stopped. In 2011, the heavenly fragrance returned for twelve days, during which I was in a state of bliss. I knew that a higher dimensional version of my soul had come to be integrated with the soul in this incarnation. I wrote about these encounters in my book, Walk-ins Among Us ~ Open Your Personal Portal to Cosmic Awareness.

On December 4, 2013 the psychic smell of my soul essence returned for nine days. I could smell it simultaneously with “earthly” smells that everyone could sense. I could even put on perfume and not be able to smell that manufactured aroma after a short while; the heavenly essence would rise above other smells such as food, pet/people odors, car exhaust, or lotions. The fragrance went with me everywhere I went—I smelled it in my car, while shopping in stores, and even in the shower. If I spent time in a particular room of my house, I could smell it even stronger and it lasted after I left the room and came back.

I would like to hear from others who have this ability. Leave a comment to let us know what you have smelled and how you have used this spiritual gift as a guidance tool on your spiritual journey.
