Empath means “becoming one”. Empaths have the ability to become one with something (humans, animals, crystals, environment, etc.) How would you describe the kind of empath you are?
Since childhood I’ve been able to connect with other people and feel what they are feeling, however animals seem to respond to my energy as well. I recall a particular incident when I was explaining to a rather high strung friend of mine that her energy was exhausting. To illustrate my point a puppy was jumping up and down next to her like it was on a trampoline (bing-bing-bing) yet when it crossed the room to me it settled down immediately putting its head on my lap and mellowing out.

Empathy is the ability to control or feel others emotions, or send others your emotions. For an empath on a day of little balance, they could broadcast their emotions to others unintentionally. In some cases, they would be in a cheerful mood and thus everyone around them is also in that pleasant mood, and responds pleasantly to the empath.
On occasions when the empath is upset or angry, the entirety of the people surrounding them would become overwhelmed by this emotion and act out at others including the empath, or end up with sporadic emotions ranging from rage to uncontrollable laughter. Empathic suggestion fits normally in this same package, for they are suggesting to others how to feel in general, and how to feel towards them.
