Intuitive guidance is nothing
special. It is something we all posses. We just need to understand
it and learn how to use it.
Our intuitive guidance arises as a result of the energy we
experience. Intuitive guidance is the information available to you
before your mind steps in and manipulates it some way. Mind
manipulates it by placing its judgements and/or interpretation of
what is experienced and sensed.
Anything that manifests (seen or unseen) and/or experienced, whether
experienced in mind and/or body, is the result of a flow of energy.
There is a flow of energy which gives rise to the experience you
have. Without a flow of energy there is no movement to have an
experience. In being open to what we sense and feel, you can "know"
and/or "perceive" we can focus our attention and awareness into or
on what we are experiencing. That focus on what we sense gives rise
to intuitive insights in our mind. That is, mind will characterizes
what it is being experienced in the moment based on its past
experiences. What your intuitive guidance presents to you, whether
perceived as a feeling or a thought, word or image is only the best
your mind can do to describe what you experience. Mind is
characterizing everything we experience all the time. What surfaces
into our consciousness is determined by the composite of our
conscious and subconscious focus of our attention and awareness. By
consciously choosing how we focus our attention and awareness we can
access information about any topic. The question is whether or not
we have the minimum set of requisite experience to understand what
we sense for our mind to characterize it in a way we can understand
it. .
It is at this point a we are at a juncture. At this moment mind
steps in and either discards what surfaces or focus on it such that
it becomes the dominate thought in our mind. Here mind acts as a
filter. Based on habits of the past are determining what insight get
into our conscious mind such that we recognize the information and
are given the options of acting or not acting on it. However, if we
are mindful and aware, we can begin to see the space between what
arise as the characterization of energy by mind as a thought,
feeling, word or image and mind stepping in and allowing it to pass
or not pass into our attention to become the dominate thought. It is
in this moment, this space between mind stepping in, is where we
access the power of our intuitive guidance.
In any case, whatever feeling, thought, word or image, that arises
will most probably be wrong or in error simply because mind has
insufficient experience to properly characterize what is
experienced. The insights we gain in mind are incorrect and at
best approximations, unless we have the minimum requisite set of
experiences to understand what we sense. This is why intuitive
guidance seems to be accurate sometimes and at other times so
inaccurate. This is also why mind discards information that does not
seem to fit its
belief structure
and how it thinks things should be. Nevertheless, the direction
provided by the intuitive guidance regarding the flow of energy
manifesting the experience is correct and will be accurate.
What is presented by our intuitive guidance does provide you the
direction you need to move to know and get the experience you need
to understand what you are really experiencing. The intuitive
guidance tells you the direction you need to go to either 1) align
with the flow of energy that is manifesting, or will manifest, the
desired object or experience; and/or 2) the direction you need to go
to gain the minimum set of experiences to understand and/or
experience the manifesting form.
The awareness of this understanding about intuitive guidance can be
used to create anything you desire. Aligning with your intuitive
guidance takes you on the path of least resistance for what you wish
to create for it aligns with the flow of energy created by the
intention you hold. Intuitive guidance is usually perceived to be
intuition, body wisdom, and/or second knowing or other typical
“sixth sense” abilities.
Accessing intuitive guidance (Top)
In needs to be understood, we can
use our intuitive guidance to access any information that we desire
and it will limit the information it provides to what we desire.
However, our intuitive guidance will not provide us any information
unless we ask. We ask by setting a
clear intention or we carry a set of believe that opens our
intuitive guidance for routine use. The information our intuitive
guidance surfaces when we don’t not ask it anything in particular is
only in response to the
nonconscious intentions and direction we have set for our life.
Without awareness, most of our response to life is survival,
protection and keeping safe. Hence most individuals experience their
intuitive guidance protecting them and keeping them safe.
Forms of
intuitive guidance (Top)
Intuition (Top)
is an awareness about situations and people that you for which you
can find no rational way of knowing.
Body wisdom
(Top)
is about body sensations with no physical discernable cause. Body
wisdom, is also related to that inherent wisdom that grew us from an
infant into an adult without the need of mind. This aspect of body
wisdom is perfectly capable of guiding us to help fulfill our
creative endeavors if we able to listen and follow it. (More on

body wisdom)
Second knowing
(Top)
is knowing something specific like facts or information that you
have no way of logically knowing. For most, intuition and second
knowing are one and the same. Their main difference is intuition
typically has a “feel” or a feeling associated with the insight.
Second knowing, is normally a clear mental insight usually without
feeling.
Effectively using intuitive guidance
(Top)
Creation is about taking what
arises in the creative imagination and making it a physical reality
- an object or experience in physical Creation. To effectively use
our intuitive guidance we need to honor our intuitive guidance. We
do so by holding your creative ability and our creative insights
sacred. If we create real or imaginary action based on the intuitive
insight, one moves towards and/or into alignment with the flow of
energy and the understanding that gave rise to the intuitive
insight. By honoring the intuitive guidance as discussed here, you
are also honoring and embracing creativity and the creative process.
Honoring intuitive guidance
is discussed under that topic of the same name.
Developing
intuitive guidance (Top)
To develop intuitive guidance, one
needs to be open to feeling. To effectively use your intuitive
guidance, you have to be open to feeling and what you feel. You
body, what it feels and senses, is the doorway to being open to
feeling. Your body is like an antenna. It sends energy out and it
received energy. To improve your ability to sense the energy, you
need to open yourself to feeling and what you body feels. You will
need to become aware of the subtle feeling you get and being to
understand why you get the feeling you got and what information is
being picked up and which could be made available to you.
To being to develop your intuitive guidance, you can ask yourself,
“What do I need to feel, what types and kinds of experience do I
need to explore to be able to use the depth and breadth of my
creative ability?” Become aware of what your intuition presents to
you as to what you may need to do. Then
honor the intuitive guidance
that you get. Additionally you can develop a
daily practice of
feeling and opening yourself to feeling. For example, it could be to
exposure yourself to different types and kind of sensual feeling
experiences. It is also recommended you develop some type and kind
of meditation practice that allows you to become mindful and aware
of both your thoughts and your feelings.
Meditation concepts and
principles are discussed on the web site of the same

Major
issue in opening oneself to feeling
(Top)
The major issue in opening oneself
to feeling is why we shut down our intuitive insights in the first
place. For some of us, we use
thinking as an addition
to not allow ourselves to feel. To be open to feeling, you will find
it necessary to face and deal with all the reasons why you shut down
your ability to feel. Most often what you need to face will be those
circumstances and memories of the past where you creative spirit was
somehow thwarted in what it was choosing to create. This, of course,
could be a journey unto itself and would require much more time and
effort than what is required for any single creative endeavor.
However, you need not mount a full scale campaign to open yourself
to feeling. You only need to address what your being presents to you
in the moment as needing to be addressed to be open to what you need
to feel to create what you desire. However, you cannot run away from
it or suppress it. The past that surfaces in opposition to your
creative effort is only what you need to deal with to create what
you desire. You then simply need to face what arises one at a time.
How you choose to face what you need to face, is your choice. The
recommendation made here is to allow your intuitive guidance to tell
you the best, safest and fastest way to face what arises.
