What is Intuition?

What is intuition?

Intuition is the ability to accurately, instinctually, know things. These knowings don't come from the thinking mind. Your Higher Self can communicate with energies on a spiritual level. Your spirit isn't inside of you; you are inside of it. It is energy that extends far beyond your physical body. It transcends time and space as we know it. Even though you might not be conscious of it, humans always receive intuitive information. As we awaken to the Universe's spiritual nature, our conscious awareness can expand to include intuitive and psychic information.

How does intuition work?

It's helpful to learn how information can be intuitively received. The most common ways are through the "clairs," which are similar to your five senses, but they perceive other levels of reality than your normal five senses do. Everyone has different strengths and weaknesses regarding which Clair senses work best for them, and you can learn to communicate effectively with any of them.

Clairvoyance means clear sight. These are usually images you see inside of your head.

Clairaudience means clear hearing. These are sounds that convey messages.

Claircognizance means clear knowing. These are ideas that seem to appear in your mind.

Clairsentience means clear feeling. Sensations in your body that give you messages. A typical example is a gut feeling.

Clairalience means clear smelling.

Clairgustance clear tasting.

How do you already use intuition?

Think about times when answers seem to come or you instinctively know what to do. Think about times that you feel inspired. How does the information come to you? Do you get a feeling? A flash of an image in your mind? It is probably something that seems natural and normal to you, so you probably don't even usually think of it as intuition. Try these journaling techniques to connect to your intuition and your higher self.
