you that something bigger is at play in life . These moments of intuitive insight connect you to the larger purpose of your life and the ineffable knowingness that waits behind your thoughts , quietly , for your attention . The gut feelings and the times when you just know things , even without having all the facts — these are the first calling cards of your intuition . The more you invite your intuition in — the more you get to know it and honor it — the more you will witness the subtle nudges of intuition becoming clearer , stronger communication . What begins with a whisper ends , after time and practice , with an assured calling to recognize and choose the best in your life .
The existential angst so many of us feel today is due , in part , to our habitual and seemingly inescapable overreliance on our thinking mind . We have so much information to process , so much to figure out . We are bombarded , each day , with an endless stream of input from our electronic devices . The return to intuition is the way out of that din , an inner retreat from the chaos of the world . It calls us away from the frenetic distractions of obsessive thinking and back to the richness of life itself — the vitality of presence in the human experience .
We all crave intuition . The stress , the gnawing ache of an empty place inside of us , the feeling that something is wrong , but we don ’ t know what — these are symptoms of dislocation from our intuitive , inner being . When we learn to recognize and follow our inner guidance , it reconnects us with the fullness of our intended existence . In this way , intuition is not only our line to higher awareness but the cure for our pains — our imbalanced bodies , worried minds , broken hearts , and defeated spirits .
We often live our lives with a sense that we are incomplete . Though we may set this feeling aside or cover it up with activities , ambitions , and worldly pursuits , on a deeper level we know that we are more powerful , with more potential than we realize . When we turn to intuition , we step into that power and into the potential it holds . We rise above the fear , the disappointment , and the confusion of the human experience .
You are made for a different kind of life . You are made to be complete , to be joyful , to be inspired and fulfilled . You are made to use your extraordinary inner power to create the life of your dreams . This is what your intuition is calling you to do , right now .
How will you answer this call ? How can you open lines of communication between two very different worlds ? How do you touch this ineffable dimension of reality ? No teacher , no guru , no quest or drug can take you there ; you only get there by following your intuition . What is on the other side of that “ call ” is nothing less than life itself — the Ultimate , the Supreme , the Absolute , the allknowing , omnipresent Being . We can call it God , Spirit , or our Source — whatever we name it , we are all part of it . We are intrinsically embedded within it , and it within us — united by intuition .
