Warning: Speculation
Eorzea's special specifically because of how aether-dense the land is. I forget where specifically they mention that, but it's also theorized that's why magic is as potent as it is.
As Porkchop mentioned, conjurers can "hear" magic. Thaumaturges channel it for their spells, so they should be able to "feel" if there's enough around them to manipulate. It's not too far off, in my head, from the Force in the Star Wars universe. It's all around, but there are those sensitive to it.
Similarly, there are people in the real world who can feel air pressure drop when weather systems move, or similarly folks able to feel or hear the electromagnetic whine of technology. There's no reason why someone might not be able to feel aether more than others.
