tonight I learned that caul-born people refer to themselves as 'caul bearers' and they are extremely intense:

It's not easy being a caul bearer. Painful images and messages hover, pester and persist. It's been happening since you were a small child and sometimes you feel like you will lose your mind. If you share what you see, people think you're weird, crazy or possessed by the devil. So you hold it all inside.

Then...you discover alcohol elixirs and drugs to swallow or smoke. For a while you finally escape from the fear and chaos. But the voices and visions always come back and the dark pain becomes worse. The downward spiral has begun and you want something better....and there is something better...you just need to tap into it....

~Possess a natural ability to perform Remote Healings

~Strong empathic abilities

~Is a protector or guide

~Sense of urgency to save the world - often "before it's too late"

~Are increasingly frustrated with the ignorance of the masses, and long for meaningful conversations

~Highly sensitive, intuitive and perceptive - sometimes unnervingly so

~Have vivid memories of past lives or the ability to approach unfamiliar tasks with ease

~Frequent deja vu

~Strong and recurring visions of the future of mankind

~A catalyst for any number of things such as change or connecting other Caul Bearers with each other

~Invoke very strong positive or negative responses in people - sometimes perfect strangers - often children and animals

~Prophetic or precognitive dreams and visions - often frightening

~Possess telepathic abilities

~Psychic or clairvoyant type abilities

~See entities -- VOIDS or "soul catchers" (see description in the Forums), ghosts, spirits, energy imprints, angels, demons, and the wee folk

~Can See auras

~Strong connection with animals and nature

~Natural leader, but a supportive follower

~Feel overwhelmed in crowds and often prefer to be alone
