The sixth sense is traditionally believed to be intuition or the ability to perceive things beyond the ordinary five senses—sight, hearing, taste, touch, and smell. This concept often includes extrasensory perception (ESP), which encompasses phenomena such as clairvoyance, telepathy, and precognition. Many cultures and belief systems regard the sixth sense as a deeper spiritual or psychological awareness, enabling individuals to sense events or feelings that are not immediately observable. It is often associated with instincts, gut feelings, and an innate understanding of situations or people.
