I don't get why people make such a big deal around the topic of intuition. Yes, I have plenty of down time, solitude, and possibly one or two other items listed above, but am stuck & frustrated with my life and don't hear a "still, small voice" giving hints about what direction to try. (In part I suspect several of the items listed above may be the *result* of intuition or maybe side effects, if they are related at all.) I would invite people to tell where in their lives they have seen intuition making a difference--some real stories might be more helpful than this article.

Nancy Austin- I have felt and can often feel that life is very much “waiting at the train station”, but when you DO hop on the train, it’s undeniable when you are “under the influence” of your intuition. Try simple things like “not” calling a certain person back (an example) simply because you DON’T FEEL LIKE IT… perhaps there is a reason why… the more we honor our “feelings”, the more that the intuitive nature in us will feel safe to begin to take up more space in our personalities. We all need to stop being so connected to so many people. It has only been a TINY span (a blip!) of time in human existence in which humans have decided to remain PLUGGED INTO each other. There are no boundaries any more. Where one person stops, the other begins without any space… without any time… without any genuine and authentic living. I live a completely unattached life and could never go back. I have a TINY circle and I have no fear that I may miss out or that I may have (my own) funeral in an empty hall. Things like that do not terrify me nor should they. I’m free and I honor my feelings. Feelings are never wrong. Exaggerated? Maybe. But never wrong. Misinformed? Sometimes. But still not wrong. If we are meant to know different, we will know. Oh yes! The universe has a GREAT WAY of getting messages through to us when we need to hear them! And TIMING IS EVERYTHING. It can take YEARS at different phases (seasons) of our lives before we are “ready” for what is next. TRUSSSST MEEE it can be a DOOOZY! Sometimes “what is next” will ROCK THE HELL OUT OF YOUR $HIT BEFORE IT PAVES THE WAY FOR “better days”… trust that the timing is always correct. It’s never late. Ever. And again- it also spares us the decency of not arriving early- before we are ready. Sometimes the least momentous seasons in life should be enjoyed while they can because life has a way of breaking things down to their naked and bare essence before it makes… a nice aromatic essential oil out of you.
