The Spiritual Meaning: Hearing A Loud Clap Noise
Updated 2025.05.13
Have you heard the sound of a deafening crack? Sounded like thunder, except there wasn't any?
If so, you may not be alone.
About 15 years ago, I went for a walk in the woods.
Stopping to notice a passionflower that had just bloomed, I bent down to inspect it further and admire its beauty.
While I paused on my walk, a loud, deafening crack pierced the air.
It sounded like the crack of thunder had just flashed over my head, except there was no lightning. It was a beautiful, crystal clear day without a cloud in the sky.
My ears now ringing from the aftermath; I was mystified.
Fast forward to today, I've learned that when I hear a noise originating from no physical or human source in sight, it's probably something spiritual.
Have you heard a loud pop in meditation? A sudden bang while you're all alone?
If you can find no physical world origin for the sound, what you have heard is spiritual and called a rapport. Rapports are the sonic boom of the Spirit World.
A rapport occurs when a Spirit traveling in a high-frequency dimension zips through our lower frequency dimension.
Some people interpret this energy through vibrations or other sensations. Whichever way you interpret the energy, a rapid energetic wave is produced.
When a Spirit is traveling really fast to meet you on the physical level, there can be an associated physical effect, like a loud sound.
What you've heard can be the sound of a Spirit traveling to you or traversing the veil between the two worlds to communicate. I like to think of this sound as the sound of a communication gateway opening up to connect the realms.
When you hear something like this, pause, take some time to tune in and notice if there are any additional impressions you get or messages you can pick up on.
