I’m sure most
of us have been in a situation when something we are being told just doesn’t
feel right. You’re not sure why, you can’t put your finger on it, but something
is telling you that something is wrong. So what are you sensing and what is it
that is trying to communicate with you? Your energy body or aura is giving out
and receiving communication on an energetic level all the time and it is your
solar plexus chakra in particular where you ‘sense’ or ‘feel’ energy. This chakra connected to the psychic ability
of clairsentience or ‘clear feeling’. The solar plexus is situated in our
stomach just above the naval. For that reason, this feeling or intuition is
also known as gut instinct. If you can strengthen your gut instinct and gain
trust in it through practice, you can in effect become a human lie detector.
Everyone has
a personal energy vibration made up of their thoughts and emotions. We respond
subconsciously to a person’s energy vibration all the time – in other words,
there are some people you instantly resonate with and others that you just wish
to avoid. We make decisions about other people based on their vibration without
even realising it. We can sense when someone is being authentic and equally
when they are not being truthful. When someone is being authentic and truthful,
the energy matches their words. When they are telling a lie, the energy they
give out does not match what they are saying. This creates a feeling that
something isn’t quite right and it is simply because the energy vibrations do
not match. This is why you get that feeling that something just doesn’t feel
right. Energy doesn’t lie.
Feeling Truth and Untruth
in the Body
Your body
works like a finely tuned biofeedback mechanism and is constantly giving you
clues if you can learn how to interpret them. If you say a statement out loud,
notice where you feel it in your body when you say something that is true, and
again notice where you feel it in your body when you say something that is
untrue. When I say a true statement, I
feel a nice healthy in/out type of bouncing energy in my solar plexus. However
when I say an untrue statement, I feel a heavier energy swirling deeper, lower
down from the solar plexus, around the belly button. Try practicing this
yourself and determine your own responses for truth and untruth. Please note that your responses reflect how
you really feel about something, not fact or prediction.
Greater Awareness
Once you’ve
practiced this a few times and found a consistent pattern, you will start to
trust your gut instincts all the time. It can be very useful to find out how you
really feel about something for instance. Do you really want what you are
striving for or is it really what someone else wants for you? Try practicing
with other people as well. Get a friend to make various statements and you will
be able to develop your ability to sense other people’s energy as well as
determine whether they are being honest with you! All psychic abilities can be
developed with practice – it’s just like learning to strengthen a muscle you
don’t normally use – and this is a skill that can be put to great use in a
variety of situations.
