Do You Have Clairalience? 10 Sure Fire Signs You Have It

Did you know that it’s not only animals that have the ability to receive information and navigate their life with smell, someone who has clairalience can also do this. The meaning of clairalience is “clear smelling”. Someone that is clairalient has a heightened sense of smell.

When you have clairalience, you are picking up on smells from this realm or different realms and tapping into them in a much deeper way than what your physical nose can perceive. You are using your psychic senses to receive information via smell.

What Is Clairalience?

Clairalience means “clear smelling” and is one of the 7 ‘clair’ abilities. This ability is connected to your nose and throat chakra.

Clairalience means that you can smell things that aren’t physically here in your 3D reality. You may smell something in your mind or physically as if it’s right there in front of you. Either way that you receive this information is valid.

How Do You know If You Have Clairalience?

1. You Smell Things When There Are No Smells Around You

One of the meanings of being clairalient is that you smell things that you can’t see with your eyes or that aren’t in your immediate environment. You may be with a  group of people, and you are the only one who smells something.

This is because you are picking up on smells from a different dimension, very far away, or a different place here on earth that other people aren’t tuned into. You are basically tuning into a frequency and picking up information from that specific frequency.

For example, you may think about your mother who lives in a different country and smell apple pie. Later when you talk to her you discover that she was baking an apple pie. You’ve picked up on her frequency by tuning into her energy.

2. You Smell Energy When You Tune into Someone or Something

If you have clairalience then you can smell energy. You may receive certain smells when you tune into someone or something. These smells may signify something unique to you.

You may be able to smell disease or illness in someone by the way they smell. You may also be able to sense health and vitality in someone by the way they smell.

If you are clairalient you can pick up on emotions by someone’s smell. Or you may even be able to tell what psychic abilities they have.

You may know what type of career they have by their ‘smell’. There are endless possibilities that your clairalience can pick up on! You can receive a lot of information about another person by the smell you receive from them.

3. You Smell Things That Are Out of This World 

Another sign that you have clairalience is that you may smell things that you’ve never smelt before that are ‘out of this world.’ You may tap into different dimensions and smell things from those realms.

There are smells in other realms that aren’t here on earth. Just as there are colors in different worlds and dimensions that don’t exist on earth. The higher in dimension you go, the more beautiful the smells. The lower in dimension you go, the more unpleasant smells.

So, if you are smelling something that is not like anything you’ve ever smelt before then you have clairalience.

4. You Have a Strong Sense of Smell if You Have Clairalience

If you have a strong sense of smell, you may be clairalient. You may smell things from far away or smell things much stronger than others around you. If other people have told you that you have a really good nose and you also feel that way, that is another sign that you may have this clair ability.

5. You Enjoy Nice Smelling Things

If you are clairalient, you may find that you really enjoy smelling nice things. You may really enjoy the smell of flowers or fresh baking or the smell after it rains. Smells may even evoke emotions within you and make you feel a certain way.

6. Smells Pop into Your Head

Another meaning of being clairalient is that smells pop into your head either randomly or when you tune into something. You may be thinking about someone and a smell pops into your head. It’s important to journal about this because you may not understand what the smell means at first and it can have many meanings.

You may also receive smells when you think about a place or an event. These smells are connecting you with the energy of that place or event.

Or someone may be thinking about you and you pick up on it and receive a smell that is connected to them.

7. Clairalience Comes Through in How You Speak

Another way to know if you have clairalience is how you speak. If you say things such as, “Something smells fishy” or “something smells off” to describe that something isn’t right even without a physical smell then you have clairalience.

You use the word “smell” to describe things in your reality. Notice how you describe things to see if you use the word “smell” when you speak.

8. You Can Smell Spirits When They Are Around

If you have clairalience, you may smell spirits when they are around. You may walk into a room and smell something that is connected to the spirits who are there. Or you may smell your own spirit guides or angels.

Different types of beings will have different smells to you, and this will help you differentiate who is around. For example, an angelic being may smell heavenly while a lower 4^th density astral being may smell like smoke. These are just random examples, as they will be very unique to you.

9. You Can Smell What Someone Just Ate Even When They Aren’t Around You

You may be able to pick up on and smell what someone ate who isn’t around you if you have clairalience. You don’t need to be in their presence as you are tuning into the energy of the smell, not the actual physical smell itself.

This may look like you thinking about someone and then receiving a smell that is what they just ate or even what they want to eat.

10. You Can Smell the Past, Present, or Future

Some clairalient individuals can actually smell things that have happened in the past, present, or future. They can relate things to certain times. This is definitely a less common clair ability, but it is possible. If you have clairalience, you may pick up on something through your sense of smell and know when it relates to.

Or you may be thinking of the past and receive a certain smell. Then when you tune in to the present that smell changes and when you tune into the future it’s yet again another smell.

For example, someone that is clairalient may tune into a time period let’s say the 1,600’s, and receive a specific smell that sums up that time. Then when they tune into the 1,700’s they receive a different type of smell that sums up that period. They are able to relate that smell to a feeling or a knowing of what the energy was like then.

Note: You don’t have to have all the above to be clairalient. You might have a couple of them and still have a really strong clairalience ability.

How to Strengthen Your Clairalience

• Journal About Your Clairalience Experiences

You can strengthen your clairalience abilities by keeping a journal of your experiences.

Be sure to record what you smell, when you smell things that aren’t there, and also what you were doing while you smelled it. Then check your journal regularly for patterns.

For example, you may notice that you always receive clairalient information when you are meditating. You may be connecting with a certain person, and they are coming through as a smell.

This is why it’s important to record what you smell because if you pick up on different scents, you’ll know that there is more than one person there. If you keep picking up one the same scent every time you meditate you know that the same being is showing up for you.

• Strengthen and Clear Your Nose and Throat Chakra

The next thing you can do to strengthen your psychic ability of clairalience is to work on your nose and throat chakra. Take time every day to clear and balance your nose and throat chakra.

You can imagine beautiful energy going into these chakras and cleansing them. Imagine that they are open and clear and ready to receive information.

When strengthening a chakra, adding that color into your life will help to balance it. You can wear the color blue, look at the blue sky, focus on looking at a blue picture, paint your nails blue, and eat blue foods such as blueberries to help balance this chakra.

• Practice Smelling Things Deeply

Another way to strengthen your clairalience is to practice smelling a variety of things. Really tune into and focus on the depth of the smells.

You may smell things at a new level that you didn’t before. You may begin to smell layers of different things. This will help to expand your chakras to increase your clairalience.

• Smell New Smells

Another great way to develop your clairalience is to practice smelling new things that you’ve never smelt before. This will open up a new level of your ability as your senses become enhanced from experiencing something new.
