It's been on my mind lately

Can subconsciousness interfere with eachother? For example when on the surface everything is normal, but you can feel that someone is uncomfortable. And you know that it's not because you saw that person acting this way, but you just feel it. Or is it just your brain's interpretation?

I think we can sense other people depending on our backgrounds, the environment, practice and other things.

Let’s talk about empaths for a moment. There’s no such thing. It’s an unrecognized classification with a moniker that has no definition. It’s currently believed particularly empathic people are often the child of trauma, where the development of an early warning system is a self-defense mechanism. That can carry through life, but temperament makes a difference, too.

Think of fish for a moment. Fish move in great schools as a synchronized body. They do it because their bodies sense pressure shifts in the water. They feel pressure on the right, they swim left. When people are in tune with themselves and the Universe, they can feel that same kind of movement and shift. As such, we learn to pick up on the emotions and composure of others so we know which way to swim, if you will.

Yes, I thoroughly believe intuition is a legitimate phenomenon, and some people do it better than others but everyone can learn.
