Intuition by Susan Piver #Trust30 (Day 24)

The secret of fortune is joy in our hands. – Ralph Waldo Emerson
If you could picture your intuition as a person, what would he or she look like? If you sat down together for dinner, what is the first thing he or she would tell you?



I realize I have once again strayed from the prompt by not using a person to describe my intuition.  But I do not view my intuition as a person.  I believe it comes from something beyond our human-ness.  It has a voice, but it does not necessarily 'look' the same in each person, or speak the same.  It is totally unique in each of us.  I view it as the ‘key to life’.  It serves both as a guide and a protection.   I believe intuition comes from our soul,  our spirit.  How can I put a human face to something that I believe is spiritual?  

Ankh

I picture my intuition as ‘ANKH’.
The first thing my Intuition would say to me is as follows:
“Why do you not trust me?  The times you have listened to me I have not guided you in the wrong direction.  I am very strong and wise.  My knowledge can take you very far on your journey.   My key can unlock many doors for you, which lead to many paths.  Sometimes you over think.  I am not saying thinking is wrong…thinking is good.  Yet, when thinking leads you to a place that goes against me, it is not the right place for you.  I am waiting patiently for you to use me more…I do not mind being used.  For me, being used is not a negative connotation.  USE ME!  I am your ‘eternal life’.  Trust me.  I promise not to let you down.”

  5. Shutting the mind off or clearing it definitely paves the way for more intuition. Thinking when needed for critical judgment-- to use as a tool-- is warranted. We all tend to overthink, however. Our minds run constantly with thoughts and this can definitely detract from our intuition.

    I love the ankh. :)

  6. Nico: I dearly hope that you have this symbol somewhere in your home and/or on your person. I feel that you just unlocked your touchstone to assist you when you temporarily forget. Straight from your intuitive soul to your "self." What a lovely gift, my friend!

    Namaste.
