moments touch us — some enlighten us , or move us , or uplift us . All have the same end , which is to impart the wisdom we require to elevate our experience of life .

By embracing the many ways that your intuition manifests , you are taking the first step to discovering your own , unique intuition affinities — and putting them to work in your life . As we go deeper into this process , you will answer important questions like :

What kind of intuition comes naturally to me ?

How do I know when my intuition is speaking to me ?

What is the difference between intuition and my regular thoughts or imagination ?

And most importantly , how can I know , for certain , that I understand my intuition correctly ?

The first step in answering these questions is to discover how each intuitive pathway touches you . Are you a natural Healer ? A Sage ? A Visionary or a Mystic ? Each type of intuition carries with it the energy of its archetype . When we attune to that energy , we , in turn , embody that archetype in our own beautiful and sacred way , and make our mark on the world .

Like snowflakes , no two intuitive sensibilities are alike — because no two people are alike . Each of us uses the Four Intuitions in our own way — a special blend of insight , attuned by our own experiences and purpose in this life . As your intuition strengthens and becomes part of your living nature , you will realize the power that comes with so many ways of knowing truth .

As we awaken to the power of insight , we no longer ask ourselves , “ Do I have intuition ?” but instead , “ How do I strengthen my intuition ?” The role of intuition is to relay information to us from the inside , instead of from the outside , as our thinking normally functions . To understand how it does that , consider how we are designed to process information .

Your mind is fueled by a collective set of input systems designed to process information from the outside world . You sense things ; you know things ; you feel things ; you experience things . With intuition , it ’ s no different . Your intuition uses those same pathways — your body , your mind , your heart , your spirit —
