CARDIOGNOSIS

 

Literally "knowledge of the heart." The special charism that God confers on some people as recorded in the lives of the saints, to know the moral and spiritual condition of a person without self-manifestation. As an extraordinary supernatural gift, it must be distinguished from the psychological phenomenon of being able to shrewdly estimate someone's minimal external evidence.

**The special charism that God confers on some people as recorded in the lives of the saints**

I think of St. John Vianney.
