How Do You See? Options

I was curious as to how members here see things such as auras and other things that the normal person does not see. Like me i noticed that i see sylphs really easy when i asked few of my family and friends they said they had no clue they had never seen anything like that. I also can see auras somewhat ok every now and then when im just spaced out i admit im not the best at seeing them as i have not practiced that much. So how do you see? I have always found it intriguing to here how others view the world. I also have something with my eyes have had it my whole life i have very good vision but at any time at will i can make everything blurry but not like i cannot see it's almost like it disperses light. and makes everything closer but like even a little red dot looks like a fire work of light. No one else i have ever talked to can do this. Not sure exactly what it even is i sometimes do it whenever i get nerveous seems to calm me down. But nevertheless getting of topic so how do others here see the world around you?

I know what you mean by smelling energy. Sometimes you sense an energy signature in a way that seems similar to taste or smell. But how we sense energy doesn't matter as much as that we do sense it and that we have a system to associate a particular sensation with a particular condition. For instance when I feel a cool or cold spot in someone's energy I associate it with an old emotional trauma. But some of the others I know describe old traumas as being a sense of tension or tingling or some other description, but it is something that doesn't quite belong. It is an irregularity to what is normal.

I have seen people's auras very clearly at times but it isn't something that I can do at will. It has always occurred while I was doing therapeutic treatment. When I'm treating clients I often drift from one level of consciousness to another, particularly while I'm doing craniosacral therapy. When I've seen the aura in a altered state of consciousness it looks like a neon light in different colours with a dominant colour overall. It's very cool looking but if you can't tap into this on command it isn't very useful professionally. Generally the best I can do is something like fatherjhon, seeing a shadowy outline with perhaps a single dominant colour.
