Law of Attraction - Intuition: What is Intuition and How Do I Use it?

By Michelle L. Casto

Intuition is an incredible resource and gift that we have been given to help us live our best life. Unfortunately, not many people know what it is or how to use it. The word intuition means in to you in Latin.

Florence Scovel, a theologian, once said, Intuition is the spiritual faculty that doesn't explain; it seemingly points the way. It's also been said that intuition is your divine Spirit talking to you. If you will stop for a moment and acknowledge this, you will begin to realize the incredible perspective you have at your fingertips. You have this very amazing power! And you don't even have to get any special training to start using it. All you need to do is raise your awareness about it and set your intention to harness it.

Intuitive messages range from an inkling to a strong sign or message. Your inner self is persistent and consistent. It will keep trying to get your attention until you finally wise up! An inkling is like a glimmer or passing feeling/ thought that comes from somewhere inside and usually proceeds a hunch or intuitive message. A hunch is accurate information from a higher intelligence; therefore, you can rely on it. An intuitive message ranges from hearing actual words, seeing a clear picture, or a deep inner knowing. Some people experience intuition as a feeling, others a gut reaction, others will see images or have a dream, others hear an actual message. Become familiar with how your inner self communicates with you. Once you receive the message, check it out with your research and common

The best ways to get in touch with your intuition are:

1.    Be quiet. Practice taking time out every day to experience silence. Calm your mind with traditional or active meditation. Release your need to think, analyze, and know everything. The best information comes from the deep recesses of your soul.

2.    Be open Open to the gift of intuition and accept what is has to tell you. Many times, our ego thinks it has it ?all figured out,? but your true path may look very different than the one you are on. Being open to new possibilities and ways of living is key.

3.    Be creative There are many ways to be creative, painting, writing, dancing, designing a website, etc. Do something that helps you get into the flow, that place where time seems to fly by and the work is leading you. Creativity is an expression of your soul and goes hand-in-hand with intuitive guidance.

4.    Ask questions When you ask yourself questions, you gain additional insight and clarity. When you ask a question like ?What is the next step I need to take?? know that you already know what you need to know. Trust yourself. You already have everything you need inside.

5.     Journal When you write, you tap into thoughts, feelings, ideas and direction that you are not consciously awareof. Writing allows the truth to come forth and is an easy way to gain insight from your inner self.

You can further develop your intuitive guidance by preparing yourself by gathering the necessary information and experiences to provide more of an opportunity for your intuition to surface. Intuition cannot be forced; you need to allow it. After loading up your mind with information about the issue, give your intuition time to work on it. And then become open to the answer. You will likely experience an Aha moment, which is a moment of instant awareness, where the answer sprouts from out of the blue? If you have an important decision to make and are not 100% sure about something happening, stop and think before making a decision. Usually this is your intuition trying to tell you that something is not quite right. Likewise, if you feel that you should go for it, do it, so you don't miss a valuable opportunity. Intuition is your very own best friend. It is always there for you. It waits patiently for you. It gives the absolute best advice, and all you have to do is ask! Like any good friendship, all it takes to nurture it is a little time and attention. If you decide to be close and intimate with your intuition, I promise that your life will transform into something wonderful.
