Do You Ever Sense that You’re Different?

Sometimes in life you may come across a special person who seems like they are from a different time or place. They may seem particularly empathetic, intuitive, spiritual or creative. There is also the possibility that maybe you haven't met someone like this, maybe you feel this way yourself. In this case there could be a chance that you are an old soul. If you think this could be you, here are some things it may be helpful to know.

What Is a Starsoul?

A starsoul, which is also sometimes referred to as an old soul, starseed or a starchild is a kind of person who often has special spiritual abilities. These abilities can take different forms, from an increased ability to feel and show empathy to others, to having a deep inner wisdom that they are able to tap into, to an increased sense of creativity. Some believe that starsouls are souls that have reincarnated and lived many past lives, which could explain their deep wisdom, intuition and spirituality.

Signs You May Be Unique Spirit

If you find yourself questioning whether you or someone you know may be a starseed there can be some things to look for that may help you know. For one, starsouls are often very empathetic and reach out to those who need help or support with ease. They are often unafraid to show emotion. They also tend to possess deep wisdom and understanding, even if they are young. Because of this it is often easy for them to grasp concepts that others might find difficult to understand. In addition to being wise beyond their years, a starsoul may feel that they have lived past lives, and may even have clear memories of former lives. Often, because of these special traits a starsoul may have a strong sense that they are out of place on this earth, which could make them even more drawn to the spiritual world.

Different Kinds of Unique Spirits

In addition to starseeds, there are other kinds of special souls it can be helpful to be aware of as well. Some examples are indigo children, crystal children and rainbow children. Indigo children are thought to have an increased sense of awareness and tend to be creative as well as highly motivated to make change in the world. Crystal children also may possess special abilities, but unlike indigo children tend to be more laid back and may be considered peacemakers, rather than drivers of change. Rainbow children, like the other two kinds of children also have special abilities, but may be different in the sense that they tend to be somewhat more joy-filled. Being aware of the different kinds of unique spirits can help you gain understanding about yourself, and decide which one describes you the best.

Acknowledging Your Old Soul

At times, even if you have suspected that you are an old soul or special spirit it can still be difficult to know for sure. While there is often no one sure-fire way to discern whether or not you may be a starseed or another kind of unique spirit, if you have a strong internal sense that you are, then there may be a high possibility that you are on the right track. While seeking the answer about this question, it can be helpful to increase the amount of meditation you do, or if you don't meditate beginning a meditation practice may be helpful in clearing outside distractions and helping you connect with your inner voice.

The Takeaway

While many may not realize it, there may be special souls on this earth, and one of them could be someone you know, or it could even be you.

Though it can sometimes be difficult to discern, there are some traits that are common to starsouls, and learning to spot them could help you decide if you or someone you know is one of these unique spirits.
