The Many Ways We ‘See’ Energy 
One of the most fascinating things about working with energy is realising that we all experience it differently. There’s no single “right” way to sense it—our bodies and souls interpret it through a blend of our physical senses and our intuitive perception. I always teach people to use all their senses, objective & subjective – this means to use their human eyes to see it or their psychic or third eye to ‘see’ it in their mind.
For me, energy often shows up in surprising ways. When I’m lying in bed at night, gazing at the ceiling in that still, in-between space before sleep, I see what looks like tiny microbes wriggling under a microscope—little movements and shifts in the air that aren’t “really” there, yet are undeniably present.
On a dull day, if I look out of the window, it can appear as though it’s raining. Not a heavy, soaking downpour, but fine, delicate streaks—like the air itself is alive and moving. Of course, nothing outside is getting wet, but my senses are telling me that something is shifting energetically.
And here’s one many people don’t expect: I’ve smelt energy. It’s hard to put into words—sometimes it’s a sharp, metallic tang, other times a sweet, almost perfumed note that seems to drift in from nowhere. No candle burning, no perfume sprayed – just the signature of an energetic presence making itself known.
There was a time when I was shifting from having my spirituality as a hobby to it being my full time job that I could smell it all the time, I even got paranoid & carried deodorant, yet my partner assured me he couldn’t smell anything – thank goodness!
The truth is, we all pick up on energy in our own unique way.
Some people see colours, auras, or shimmering light. Others feel changes in temperature or pressure. Some hear sounds – like soft humming or a change in the quality of silence or a ringing tone. And yes, a lucky few even smell or taste it.
Energy isn’t confined to one sense – it’s multi-layered and ever-present, and our intuitive body is designed to notice it. The more you pay attention, the more your own way of perceiving it will reveal itself.
Next time you notice a flicker in your vision, a subtle scent with no source, or a sense that the air around you is moving differently – pause. You may just be experiencing the language of energy in the way you are meant to. The angels have their unique smell & so do your loved ones as they’ll bring smells you associate with them such as perfume, cigarette smoke, it’s not real, it’s energy!
