Clairgustance

Clairgustance means "clear taste" and is the ability to taste spiritual essences. Clairgustance is one of the rarer or lesser-known abilities. With the tongue always moist with saliva, we can obviously associate taste with water. Since what we are tasting is of the earth, the element of earth is also responsible for this sense.

With this ability, one may spontaneously taste a substance on their tongue as if it had been placed in the mouth. It may, again, lend insight into future potentials. It might represent the cravings of those nearby, or could be an intuitive dietary suggestion. It’s also worth contemplating the deeper symbolic significance of the flavor. For instance, let us say that the you tasted a potato. What can we associate with potatoes? Off-hand I know that potatoes can be used as batteries (power, energy). Potatoes are also used to make vodka. Vodka is an alcohol, or a spirit, and is flammable. 

Personal examples of clairgustance: I was texting a friend and as I was in mid-text, I spontaneously tasted chicken. Since this friend is also intuitively inclined, I knew it’d be okay to say something about it. I told them that I tasted chicken and asked if they were eating chicken. Shocked, my friend exclaimed that they’d just gotten done eating a chicken burrito. I had a similar instance come about during my last relationship. I was living with my boyfriend at that time and he had just gotten home from work. He planted a close-mouthed kiss on me, and as our lips met, I tasted tacos. He drew back and I asked, “Tacos?” His jaw dropped and he said, “How did you know? I was going to ask you if you wanted tacos for dinner tonight!”
