“Synaesthesia is the simultaneous perception of different senses. There are a lot of people who carry this ability.

There are different Types of synaesthesia. Not every synaesthete obligatorily has to have all types. One of the most common synaesthesia is called grapheme synaesthesia. This is a matter of involuntary associations of colors with letters or numbers. For some synaesthetes these symbols also can have a gender or a personality. The calendar synaesthesia is also very common. Concepts of time like “week” or “year” are seen as a spatial shape, for example a 3-dimensional oval. The synaesthetes can orientate on this mental image.

Another frequently occurring form of synaesthesia is when music elicits colors and forms. It is sometimes accompanied with a taste or the sensation of touching a surface…”
