Intuition
We are all intuitive; it is a part of being human. Unfortunately, many don’t feel they are, and, consequently, our culture has suffered from a dismissal or negative judgment of ‘intuitives’.

Intuition is the sixth sense. Mothers are known to experience strong intuitions concerning their children, especially in infancy. Females are associated more closely with intuition than males. However, truth be told, many who invest in the stock market (and are fairly successful) rely upon intuition as a part of their guidance.

Much has been written about intuition in the last 3 decades. One way to practice
and develop your intuition is to ‘play’ a bit – not with the stock market! Sonia
Choquette, a well known writer and psychic from Chicago, suggests playing a
game like guessing which elevator will arrive first as you wait. Harmless fun. It is
also a good way to give the ‘monkey mind’ a break – or give yourself a break from
the ‘monkey chatter’ (all of the thoughts constantly filling your mind with this ‘must
do’ to that old regret to yet another ‘bright idea’ for a book or invention and so on).

Acting Upon your Intuition

Once you begin to practice, you will notice that you have a sensation in your body or a sudden ‘feeling’ or ‘knowing’; if you pay attention and ‘listen’ with what I call the ‘third ear’, you will receive some valuable information. Then, the next step is to act upon this information. It may mean that you do something different than usual or that you stop doing something. As Sonia says, it is good to start out with activities or daily events that really don’t matter that much in the larger scheme of things.

Next time we’ll catch up with Justine Kerfoot again and see how she used her intuition.
