Another defining trait is heightened spiritual sensitivity:

  • Intuitions that later prove true.
  • Dreams that feel like messages or warnings.
  • A strong sense when something—or someone—“isn’t right.”
  • Sensing another person’s hurt before they say a word.

a call to protect, to discern, to pray, and to stay spiritually alert—not out of fear, but out of love.

  • Quiet moments alone.
  • Silence, free from screens and distractions.
  • Time for prayer, Scripture, or peaceful reflection.
  • In these moments, they often feel:
  • Mental clarity they lacked before.
  • Answers to their worries.
