Intuition is receiving inspiration and guidance from outside yourself. Your greatest source of creativity is accessed when you tune into something beyond you, lose yourself in the joy and fulfillment of an activity. This is like becoming one with it, dissolving the illusion of separation.
Most of us are familliar with intuitive decisions in our daily life. Yet, we do not really think about it. Typical examples where intuition can play an important role in making decisions are: Choosing your life partner, selecting the right car or home to buy, where and when to move, which job, education or training to follow, deciding on a meal when eating out, selecting the next book to read or movie to watch, picking clothes to wear, or how to approach a stranger or function in unfamilliar places.
Making all or most decisions based on intuition is less common, at least in the Western World. Here are 5 keys to making intuitive decision-making a more conscious part of your life:
1. Recognize intuitive decision making is far more than using common sense
This involves engaging additional sensors to perceive and tune into the information outside yourself. Sometimes it is referred to as gut feeling, sixth sense, inner sense, instinct, inner voice, spiritual guide, etc.
2. Develop higher consciousness
It is possible to train the subtle senses to recognize intuitive information. You can train these sensors and to make the process of receiving information intuitively a more conscious one. People who can't accept the existence of such sensors may instead call it tapping into "collective intelligence" or "collective unconscious". How effectively you function based on higher consciousness is often underestimated.
3. See balance between logic and intuition
The question cannot be whether rational reasoning or intuitive decision making is generally better. The question is rather in each individual case how both approaches can be best combined for optimal results. For this purpose, an experienced consultant from outside can often help to avoid common mistakes and to dissolve prejudices.
4. Feel (rather than think) the way through life
The more you trust intuition, the more often you act based on what you feel. Intuition, when functionning at its highest level, involves conscious contact with non-incarnated beings, a process usually called channelling. It can also be controlled, as in, you can consciously tune in and out of different frequencies of information as the perceived need or usefulness arises.The more you trust intuition, the more the universe gives you reason to trust.
5. Consult an intuitive mentor
Recall the five peple you spend the most time with are the five people whose patterns and behaviours you are evolving into. You are also honing abilities of those who inspire you. You are literally drawing the qualities you admire in others out of yourself to manifest them in your life. The world is constructed in you mind and projected outward based on concepts. This learning process of concepts can block the flow of intuition and make it harder to live based on heartfelt guidance. It is very useful to evolve to accept help and assistance from the spiritual world. Enagaging an intuitive outside yourself can assist you to grow aware of the intuitive within yourself. Thus it grows easire to see through your beliefs and patterns so you are empowered to live more intuitively from within
