What is Clairaudience?
Clairaudience is the intuitive ability to hear beyond the normal range, the literal meaning being “clear-hearing”.
If you are clairaudient you can receive intuitive information from Higher Spirits, those in heaven, and other members of your spiritual team via hearing.
This information can come in a variety of forms and can make you feel crazy if you aren’t aware of what is happening.
If you are clairaudient you can receive intuitive information from Higher Spirits, those in heaven, and other members of your spiritual team via hearing.
You might hear unintelligible sounds, names or phrases, particular words, or music. When clairaudient abilities are beginning to open up, you may notice ringing or changes of pressure in your ears, such as popping or buzzing noises or you may start to hear voices.
These voices can sound different from the voices we normally hear. It can sound like being spoken right next to you, inside your head, or echoing as if it’s from a different dimension.
Also, it is possible that a voice sounds like one of your loved ones who has passed away. The voice can appear in various strategic moments.
Some people are born to clairaudience and their abilities can manifest in their life at any time, from the time of their birth until the day that they die.

If you are clairaudient, probably you also have the ability of clear speaking. This means that you can channel, share, and speak the messages you hear from the spirits to others.
How to Know if You’re Clairaudient
There are many clairaudient people walking around this world who don’t even know they have this super-cool intuitive gift. Are you one of them? Let’s find out! Here are some of the most common signs that you might experience if you are a clairaudient person.
1. You Hear Ringing or High-pitched Noises
Ringing or a high-pitched sound in your ears often serves as a sign that a Spirit guide is around. It is also possible that you hear buzzing, or feel your ears pop.
If you hear those sounds –that normally manifest quickly and disappear after seconds or minutes — and there is no medical explanation, this might be a sign that you have clairaudient abilities. A Spirit can be looking for your attention to relay important information.
2. You Prefer to Learn Through the Auditory Channel
Another clue of clairaudience is your preferred way of learning. Many clairaudient people learn best through the auditory channel. Like listening to an audiobook instead of reading the book.
3. Inspiration or Ideas Flow Through You
If you are clairaudient, you probably also have many creative, inspired ideas that flow through you. These ideas can come to you when you are feeling joyful, and relaxed, and when you are doing just common tasks like brushing your teeth, taking a shower or driving your car.
During these activities your vibration is high and you are most connected to your soul because you are relaxed and happy. That’s why this is the perfect moment for Spirits to give you solutions for your problems and ideas to improve your life.
4. You Comfort and Guide Others With Great Advice
Do you comfort and advise others a lot, but you have no idea where you got those ideas? Do people tell you that you should charge money for your counsel? Or have you already made your profession out of providing others with centered and comforting advice?
This can also be a sign that you may be clairaudient. If you give great advice to others by giving thoughtful suggestions, this advice can possibly come from Higher Spirits through you. You might find yourself actually speaking their words.
That’s why your advice is so on point and often just what the people need at that very moment!
5. You Tend to Talk to Yourself
Do you find yourself thinking of replies you would like to give in certain scenarios, and do you calm down by talking to yourself after a stressful event?
If you are clairaudient, it is likely that you have conversations with yourself in your head. Yet, many of us have influences going on with our internal dialogue, but the voice of clairaudience is the voice of our spirit that guides us and tells us the truth.
This comes from a different place then the inner critic or the old tapes that repeat the same old doubts or fantasies. This is guidance!
6. You Hear Noises When No One Is Around
Does it ever seem like you hear people talking, but no one is around? Or that you hear sounds that others can’t? This can be as simple as hearing your name when no one is around or hearing noises, talking, radio or whispering.
If you can’t discern the physical source of the noise, it is very possible that this is a spirit generated speech and it’s a pretty good indicator that you may be clairaudient.
7. You Are Very Sensitive to Music
Do you love music and does it make you feel connected to your soul? Often clairaudient people are very sensitive to music, are musically inclined, and find a deep soul connection to music.
If music moves you to this extent, you may be clairaudient. You may also enjoy writing music. There are many accounts of composers who have heard or dreamt of a melody playing internally before they put it down on paper.
If you start seeing pictures in your head to match the song lyrics, it may also mean you are clairvoyant and have the ability to see and perceive energy.
8. You Had Imaginary Friends
Did you have imaginary friends when you were young? Well, they maybe weren’t imaginary but were angels, Spirits, or even departed loved ones. If you communicated with imaginary friends in your childhood, this might be a sign that you were accessing clairaudience.
9. You Enjoy and Need Quiet
Though people tend to see the desire for quiet time as just an introvert quality, it is also the sign of a sensitive soul that needs to have some quiet in order to hear its own wisdom.
Besides, clairaudient people are usually highly sensitive, both emotionally and physically. That’s why noises can make you feel tired and irritated.
It can be really frustrating when you have a psychic hearing, but your family and friends don’t understand how much it affects you.
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.
Clairaudience or Psychotic Episode ?
Clairaudience can be awesome and challenging at the same time, and some people even fear it as a curse. It can be scary to hear voices especially when you’re alone at night and you’re absolutely not expecting it.
Besides clairaudients often struggle to manage noisy environments and the noise pollution of everyday modern living. Some people who have the gift of clairaudience even think they are having a psychotic episode.
But there is an important difference between having the gift of clairaudience and having a psychotic episode. The latter involves leaving behind reality and moving into another level of awareness.
This is not the case when you are having a clairaudience experience. This experience only gives guidance to your current level of awareness.
The most given advice to clairaudient people is to accept their gift. Once you do so, you will be able to see its value and may even look forward to the next experience.
Forms of Clairaudient Messages
Clairaudient messages can come to you in a variety of forms. As these messages are different from your inner voice, you have to become aware of them so that you can use the information in a valuable way. The 4 most common forms of clairaudient information are described below.
1. Your Own Voice
Most clairaudience messages are subtle and often sound as if you are having an internal dialogue. But the voice of clairaudience is the voice of our Spirit that guides us and tells us the truth.
This comes from a different place then the inner guidance. That’s why you have to develop your intuitive gift so that you can recognize the difference between your inner guidance and clairaudient messages.
2. Spirit Voices
Next, to receiving messages telepathically through your own voice, you can also receive messages through Spirit voices. In some cases, these voices are from friends, relatives or acquaintances who passed away and will sound like they did while they were living.
3. Sounds
Messages can also come in the form of sounds, like hearing your name when no one is around, or hearing noises, talking, radio or whispering. If you can’t discern the physical source of the noise, it is very possible that this is a spirit generated speech.
4. Warnings
In distress situations, you can receive a clairaudient message out loud. You can hear ringing or yelling. Don’t get scared when receiving such a message, but just listen to it. You will be thankful later.
How to Improve Your Clairaudient Skills
You don’t have to be born with the gift of clairaudience to have an experience with it. You can develop and improve your clairaudience skills by accessing your divine guidance and by practicing a lot.
Compare it with tuning an instrument. You can create an awareness of what to listen for and train your ears to recognize subtle distinctions of different tones. Simple, right? Here are some exercises that I use to develop my clairaudience skills.
1. Listen
The easiest way to develop your clairaudience skills is to practice sensitizing your physical hearing.
Close your eyes and gently tune into sounds you normally don’t focus on: leaves rustling, birds singing, people talking, your own breathing, etc. See if you can isolate each one, and focus on it for a few moments.
At first, this may be hard, but once you do this more often, you will expand your range of hearing and it will be easier for you to pick up sounds from the Spirit world.
2. Ask Questions
Another way to improve your clairaudient abilities is by asking Higher Spirits for an auditory message. Are you pondering on a specific question in your life? Focus on this specific question and ask for guidance.
Messages of the Higher Spirits may be received in a conversation, through lyrics of a song you hear on the radio, or a random sound.
3. Strengthen your fifth chakra
Clairaudience is associated with your fifth chakra, also known as the throat chakra. This chakra is the center of communication and purification.
Balancing this chakra can help you reconnect with your true nature and your clairaudience ability. Singing or toning are great ways to do this. Practice making sounds that are both loud and soft, high and low.
You can also use crystals and gemstones to balance your fifth chakra: Lapis Lazuli, aquamarine, turquoise, blue tourmaline are a few mentionable ones.
4. Meditate
If you want to improve any psychic ability, you have to start with meditation. Nowadays, you can find a lot of guided meditations online.
Try meditation with music, spoken meditations, and complete silent meditation, to figure out which style you prefer and try to squeeze a meditation moment into your daily routine.
Clairaudience FAQ
Being clairaudient is an extraordinary psychic gift that is sometimes perceived as a curse. Some people who experience clairaudient episodes might think that they are losing touch with reality and having a psychotic episode.
However, clairaudience is an authentic thing and has nothing to do with your mental health. Keep reading for some insights into what it means to be clairaudient, the main signs of this ability, and how to strengthen clairaudient skills.
What does it mean to be clairaudient?
Clairaudient people can hear sounds that are outside of the physical realm. One of the most well-known examples of clairaudience is the ability to listen to the voices of the dead. However, this ability extends to a few different areas, too.
Clairaudient people receive intuitive messages from the spirit realm that might offer advice or urge one to heed a warning. Clairaudience sometimes also involves hearing other sounds or music. Many people who have this gift ignore it or think that they are ‘crazy’ and try to turn it off. This is actually a very powerful gift for those who embrace it and use it for good.
What are the main signs of clairaudience?
Clairaudience manifests itself in a host of different ways. Although the general idea of it means that you hear sounds from the spirit realm, the way you hear them may differ from the way the gift presents in others. But the truth is, those with clairaudience don’t always hear messages in the same way.
You might hear a voice that sounds like it’s coming from right beside you, from inside your mind, or even from a different dimension. The messages you receive could be clear and sometimes incomprehensible. Learning the way your gift presents and fine-tuning it is key.
Can you strengthen your clairaudience abilities?
If you want to strengthen your clairaudience abilities, you most definitely can. One of the easiest things you can do to accomplish this is simple: learn to listen. Take time out of each day to shut off TV’s and radios so that you have a quiet space to listen. Then, listen to the sounds around you like the wind blowing or cars driving down the street. Setting aside this time to open up your senses will help you fine-tune your clairaudience overall.
Clairaudience Ready?
As I mentioned, clairaudience can be awesome and challenging at the same time. It can be scary to hear voices especially when you’re alone at night and you least expect it.
If you have concerns about your clairaudience skills – for example, if you have a constant ring in your ear or frequently hear voices that are destructive or evil – use your common sense. If it doesn’t feel good, be sure to speak to a health professional, as frightening clairaudient experiences shouldn’t occur too often.
Guidance from spirits will be delivered with love, and normally, people experience clairaudience as useful, valuable, and fun. So don’t be afraid to develop your skills, because they can give you a lot of joy and wisdom!

I keep getting a sense of someone being near me or watching me when alone. I began to video In my house when I get these feelings and have videos of tons of orbs and people speaking! Some of what is being said I do feel are messages for people I know. I have no fear of what I’m hearing and no fear of being alone in my house! In someways I feel peace. I’m just not sure what to do…as I said these are voices I’ve videoed in my house. Any suggestions?? I’m at a loss trying to find anyone to help me understand.

This does sound like something spiritual is going on! As long as you feel at peace, living alongside spirits can be really rewarding.
