If you felt the desire to open this article and find out more about the main traits of an empath, you must already have a bit of understanding about the subject.
Maybe you have a background of general spiritual knowledge, and maybe even a hunch that you or someone close to you could be an empath.
With the vibration of planet Earth gradually rising over the last few years and all the changes that occur in people’s vibrational level and consciousness as a result of that, more and more empaths and natural healers are born.
Also, more people are developing empathetic and healing abilities later in life.
This because people are starting to match the new vibrational level of a planet that is becoming a place of healing and spiritual growth for souls from all dimensions.
If you suspect that you or someone you know, might have out of the ordinary empathic abilities, proceed with reading this article in order to finally find out for sure!
Firstly, to be clear…
What Is An Empath?
An Empath is a person who possesses, to a certain extent, a sort of supernatural ability.
Empaths are very well in tune with the Universe (or The Divine Source, as it can also be named).
Therefore they are VERY SENSITIVE to everything that is happening above the physical realm, in the subtle dimensions of our planet.
In other words, by being able to sense someone’s energies, they can also feel those people’s emotions and intentions.
Sometimes they even know what someone else is thinking.
Being an Empath is usually a sign that the person is an old soul being called to proceed with their journey on the path of healing others.
Empathy is the primary trait that a true healer must possess. But being empathic can be difficult, confusing and exhausting at times.
This is because the Empath may not be aware of their abilities and don’t know how to protect their energy.
What Are The Most Obvious Signs Of An Empath?
There are a few landmark traits and behaviours of an Empath, that set them apart from other people.
However, having a few empathic traits it’s not enough for a person to be a true Empath.
It may simply mean that they have more empathy than the average person or that they are in the process of BECOMING an empath.
Empaths are very sensitive to energy.
This means that an Empath will instantly feel the energy of every place they go or person they come across, the energy of food or of objects that transmit information such as books or audio/video.
Therefore, Empaths will be affected by the negative energy of a place and would not be able to live in a home that is charged with negative energy.
Nor will they take pleasure in reading books written about violence or watch horror movies.
Also, they might struggle to eat meat at times, especially if they do not know how to energetically cleanse it, because they will feel the energy of the animal that was killed.
So having said that, let’s get into…
What Are The Traits Of An Empath?
Trait #1: Empaths Feel Other People’s Emotions
This means more than just accurately identifying the emotion of a person and understanding how they feel.
Once they have picked up on an emotion, the empaths, especially the untrained ones will feel the emotion as powerfully as if it was their own, which can be confusing even when it comes to positive emotions.
Imagine bursting into laughter while you’re traveling home by subway with no obvious reason, but it can become a true burden when it comes to picking up negative emotions.
Taking on other people’s sadness, anger or fear can become daunting if the Empath does not know how to transform these emotions or remove them using Light and Positive Energy.
Trait #2: They Have A Very Powerful Intuition And They “Just Know Things”
This trait can be especially observed if you have an empath as a close friend.
If the connection between you two is very strong, the empath will know how you’re doing or feeling WITHOUT you telling them.
In fact, they might be “accidentally” calling when you’re feeling very down just because “they felt something is wrong”.
They might also have premonitions about natural disasters or negative events before they happen, but that is more characteristic of Empaths who have already trained themselves to become more perceptive.
Trait #3: Empaths Are Human Lie Detectors
As the core internal value of an Empath is the truth, they are able to detect people’s lies sometimes even without seeing the person’s body language, just by picking up the vibe that “something is wrong”.
In fact, if you are friends with an Empath you might have heard them using phrases like “I have a bad feeling” or “Something’s not quite right here” and they are usually right.
What’s fascinating is that Empaths are…
