Your intuition is one of the greatest gifts you have as a human being. It is the light within you that connects you to the source of Creation. It is a knowingness that comes without explanation or proof, and takes place at the cellular level and beyond. Your intuition is the knowing feeling that you have near the pit of your stomach, but it is not limited to that area. If you pay close attention to people’s actions, when they have that knowing feeling, they will sometime have some kind of gesture toward their stomachs. For example, they may place one or both of their hands near their stomachs when they say, “I know this is the right thing to do.” Men usually referred to intuition as the gut feeling and women usually referred to it as the knowing feeling. Everyone experience many of these gut feelings on a regular basis but most people don’t realize that they are being guided by their intuition.

The more you learn to trust and use your intuition, the more confident you will become. At first, learning to use to your intuition can be tricky because it can be hard to tell if it is your intuition or your ego that is guiding you. A good way to tell if you are being guided by your intuition is to trust your emotions. If you feel more fear than love, it is usually not your intuition. Your intuition will not lie to you because it is the light of truth. Although, your interpretation of it can be wrong. This usually occurs when you let your ego get in the way. Once you learn how to use your intuition your life will turn around, because you will feel like your life is finally going somewhere.

How to listen and use your intuition

• Practice makes perfect so next time you make a decision, check your gut feeling and try to sense its presence.
• Your first impression when you meet a person is usually your intuition giving you guidance. The impression can be subtle and is usually not in your head. If your intuition is giving you a strong warning, it would be wise to avoid that person. When it comes to relationship, listening to your intuition will make your love life more enjoyable.
• Learn to sense subtle changes in your body when you meet someone or about to do something. If the changes feel positive, you are in good hands. If not, you may want to do something else.
• Your intuition often communicate to you as the creative playful child. Its guidance will help you find the most effective path for achieving your goals and dreams. Most of the time its communications are subtle so you will need to become more aware of its presence.
• Learning to face your fears will help increase your intuition. By facing your fears, you can reduce how they affect your subtle energies, such as your intuition. Fears affect your intuition by blocking it.
• Meditation is a great way to increase the connection with your intuition. Meditation reduces the noise in your head and raises your energy vibration; therefore, meditation makes it easier for you to sense your intuition.
