Empaths are often thinkers and problem solvers; they love to study a variety of different materials. They believe that problems and solutions exist together and that there is always a solution at hand. They will often search until they find the answer to a problem, which can be a great benefit to others around them, whether at work or at home.

The empath is often capable of tapping into the knowledge of the universe and receiving the guidance they need to solve the problem they have put their minds to. Empaths are dreamers; they have vivid and detailed dreams. They believe that their dreams are linked to their physical reality and that they are being warned about something that is happening in their life or the life of someone they know. From a young age, they invest their time and effort into unlocking the mysteries of their dreams.

Empaths thrive off mental engagement; they have no desire for the mundane and find it difficult to hold their focus on things that don’t stimulate them. When they find themselves getting bored, they will often resort to daydreaming and settle into a detached state of mind. Although their physical body is in the same location, their mind is in another dimension.

A teacher will only hold the attention of an empath student if they are as expressive and emotional as they are; if not they will quickly switch off. If empaths are not completely captivated by their audience, they lack interest. They make the best actors because of their innate ability to become so submerged by the feelings of others that when they play a role, they do so with all the emotions of the character that they are playing.

They are prone to experiencing synchronicities and déjà vu. What begins as a set of continuous coincidences leads to an understanding that seeing into the future is a part of who the empath is. As this acceptance becomes a reality, a feeling of euphoria sets in as they begin to connect with the power of their gift.

Many empaths have a deep connection to the paranormal; they will have a number of near-death and out-of-body experiences throughout their lives. Traveling in the spirit realm to another dimension is a normal occurrence in the life of an empath. They are free spirits and the mundane routine of life is not what they live for. When they get stuck in this cycle, all meaning of life is lost and they are forced to stop, re-examine their life, and get back on the journey to self-discovery.

Their paranormal experiences lead to isolation; to the average person this is not the norm and so the empath tends to suppress their abilities in fear of being labeled negatively. However, they are capable of overcoming this and it typically takes place when they are surrounded by other empaths.
