That's an interesting question.. When we define Clair-voyance it means "clear seeing" and seeing without using known human senses.<br />
<br />
All of us have probably had some clairvoyant experiences but perhaps our "rational" thinking mnimizes these things and in time we forget them or explain them away as coincidences.<br />
<br />
Now synethesia .. I'm unsure if that's clairvoyance.. It's more a case of say hearing music and seeing colors.. or as you mention above sensing that some numbers are "angry". Synesthesia…

Now synethesia .. I'm unsure if that's clairvoyance.. It's more a case of say hearing music and seeing colors.. or as you mention above sensing that some numbers are "angry". Synesthesia though seems to me closer to Artistic sense.. An artist conveys something using a medium .. brush and paint .. that stirs our emotions and evokes ideas and thoughts.. Why? because by nature, we are symbolic beings. Our languages and thought are based on symbols.<br />

Maybe there's an area where synesthesia and clairvoyance inter sect?
