As of lately, the term empath has become quite popular, and while we may be hearing a lot about them, most people still don’t realize that there are many different types of empaths. That being said, some of those are much more powerful than others.

Empaths all have gifts that most other people just cannot understand. Being an empath is one of the best gifts a person can be given by the Universe. Empaths feel things differently, and no two empaths are the same. If you happen to fall into any of the following categories, you are one of the most powerful kinds of empaths to walk this earth.

7 Of The Most Powerful Kinds of Empaths:

1. The Worldly Empath

This kind of empath is powerful because he or she is much more connected with nature than most other empaths. They are able to really resonate with the world around them. No matter how hard they try, they cannot break their bond with nature.

2. The Emotional Empath

This kind of empath is one that focuses much more on emotions than the others. While all empaths are emotion-oriented, this one really takes the cake. They are able to really drench themselves in the things other people are going through and sometimes that is a very hard thing to face.

3. The Animal Empath

This kind of empath is a force to be reckoned with. They are able to really connect with animals of all kinds. They are drawn to things that are not human because of the innocence within them. Empaths are needed for all living beings, and there are even plant empaths. Animal empaths are always willing to help their four-legged friends in need.

4. The Astral Empath

This kind of empath is more connected and at peace with the Universe. He or she is able to really travel through different planes of existence in one way or another. In my opinion, this kind of empath is the most misunderstood and yet most powerful by far.

5. The Healing Empath

This kind of empath always gives too much of his or herself. They are always doing things for other people and really seem to draw in those that need healing. They do a lot of good in this world.

6. The Intuitive Empath

This kind of empath is one that relies on his or her gut for well, everything. They know that their intuition is the one thing they can trust without a doubt. They really tune into their intuition in all situations and allow it to think for them.

7. The Psychic Empath

This kind of empath is more in sync with the world of those who have passed. They help the living by also helping the dead. Their job is one that most people could not handle and they find strength in some of the most unexpected places.
