Clairaudience in Action – a Reader’s Real Life Experience

How can we understand clairaudience in action? A reader responds to a post I wrote with her real-life experience.

Clairaudience in Action, or Clear-Hearing Part II

A while ago, I wrote about clairaudience — clear-hearing — the auditory counterpart to clairvoyance, which is clear-seeing.

The post received some wonderful comments, and today, I want to share a story from a reader named Rita, who asked if her experience might be an example of clairaudience.

Rita’s Story

I do not know if I have clairaudient abilities, or not. I can only tell you what I experienced and let you decide.

I was singing with the radio, doing my dishes, and out of the blue, I hear this voice, telling me that someone, and it even gives the person’s name, is trying to leave the elementary school, with my daughter.

I say out loud, “no, my daughter will not leave with no one, whom she is not suppose to leave with.”

 The voice, says the same thing to me, but LOUDER this time.

I think I am losing my mind, and ignore it.

I go to school, to pick up my children…and my daughter runs up to me, and says, “Mommy, (the person’s name) tried to get me to leave with her today, but I did not”. I could not believe my ears. It was the person that the voice has told me.

 I drove home, went in my bedroom, and cried like a baby.

I said I was sorry for not listening to it, and that from here on, I would. And I do.

I thought it was a angel, or a loved one who had passed on, someone who warns me of things. What do you think?

My Reflection on Rita’s Experience

I believe that an angel, guide, or protective presence was indeed warning Rita about her child.

Many parents report intuitive “hits” when it comes to their children’s safety — moments when something deep within them knows something isn’t right.

Parents often experience this kind of intuitive awareness in everyday life, even if they don’t label it “psychic.” Here are a few examples:

• Claircognizance (clear knowing): Knowing your child is getting sick before any symptoms appear.
• Clairsentience (clear feeling): A gut feeling that your child might be in danger.
• Clairaudience (clear hearing): Hearing that little voice telling you to check on them.
• Clair-empathy: Feeling that something is emotionally wrong and needing to find your child, even if you can’t explain why.
• Clairvoyance (clear seeing): Getting a mental image or scene that prompts you to act.
• Clairgustance/Clairscent: Sensing through smell that something or someone around your child “doesn’t feel right.”
• Clairtangency (psychometry): Picking up your child’s object and sensing emotional residue or energy from it.

Of course, we all have instincts that can explain some of these experiences — but those instincts are part of our intuitive system.

Sadly, many people, especially women, have been conditioned to ignore their inner warnings to appear “nice” or “rational.”

Yet intuition remains a vital and trustworthy sense when it comes to protection and care.

Understanding Rita’s Clairaudient Moment

In Rita’s case, she was singing along with the radio and washing dishes — a simple, repetitive task that quiets the analytical mind.

This likely opened her right-brain awareness, allowing her intuitive channels to activate more easily.

The music, too, can act as a bridge between the conscious and subconscious mind — a kind of meditative gateway.

We don’t know whether Rita heard the voice in one ear or both.

In my own experience, clairaudient messages come through my left ear, while telepathic communication tends to arise in the center of my head.

My intuition about Rita’s experience is that the voice came from a guide or protective mother-figure, possibly someone she once knew in this life who has since passed on.

The guide knew exactly what to say to trigger Rita’s reaction — and through their mother–child energetic connection, that message may have also reached her daughter subconsciously, warning her to be cautious.

The ultimate validation came when the exact details — the person’s name — matched between what Rita heard and what her daughter later confirmed.

That’s the gold standard of intuitive validation: when information comes through that you could not possibly have known in any other way.

Acting on Clairaudient Messages

If you ever receive a strong intuitive or clairaudient message about your child — or anyone you love — trust it and take action.

The worst-case scenario? Everything is fine, your loved one is safe, and you may feel a little silly afterward (that’s just the ego talking).

The best-case scenario? You prevent something serious.

If, on the other hand, something happens that you didn’t foresee, try not to fall into guilt.

Even the most intuitive among us can’t see around every corner — we catch glimpses, not the whole picture.

My own mother once ignored a strong “gut feeling” that I shouldn’t ride my bike to school one winter morning. She didn’t want to seem overprotective.

That day, I hit black ice, crashed, and was knocked unconscious. She carried guilt for years — feeling she’d “known” something but hadn’t acted.

We all learn through these moments, just as Rita did.

As she said so beautifully:

“I was sorry for not listening, and from here on, I would. And I do.”

It can only help, not hinder.

Closing Thoughts

Stories like Rita’s remind us that intuition isn’t rare or mystical; it’s part of being human.

It’s how love communicates across time and space, especially between parent and child.

If you’ve ever had a clairaudient, intuitive, or just plain “weird but true” experience — I’d love to hear about it.

Feel free to share your story in the comments or message me directly. I love hearing about clairaudience in action.
