Just like working out your muscles and getting stronger, your intuition is like a muscle and needs to be worked out. Some people will be born with the innate ability to listen closely to their intuition, and some will have to work harder to make their intuition work well for them.
So, if your intuition is like a muscle, how can you make your intuition stronger? People that are naturally intuitive will be able to understand the idea behind intuition better than someone that has to work through it.
Intuition is part of your psychic gifting, but it is one that everyone has. Some people have very strong intuition, and they are able to listen to it and to have a strong sense. There are ways that you can keep your intuition strong, and you can work it out like a muscle.
Remember that your intuition is not the same as the clair giftings and if you aren’t sure what the clair giftings are, here is a list of them so that you can understand them.
Clairvoyance
This is a gift that helps you to be able to see things in the physical but from a spiritual eye. This means you can likely see spirits or read the auras of other people.
Clairsentience
Someone with this gifting is able to feel the energy of people and things. They can read the energy and know things about them without being told.
Clairaudience
Someone with this gift is able to hear into the spirit world. They can talk to the spirits, and they can get information from them.
Claircognizance
This gift is one that has information that comes to people without a real explanation. This can be someone that has extra intuition, and they often have dreams and visions.
Clairtangency
This is also called psychometry, and this means that you can know things about an object by holding it. This doesn’t just mean an object, but you can know things about an area or a place and even about animals.
Once you understand the different giftings more, you can get information about what gifts you have that can go along with your own intuition.
Making the Intuition Stronger
Here are some ways that you can make your own intuition stronger, and you can be able to not miss out on important things in your life:
Meditation
One thing that you need to do each day is to meditate. This doesn’t have to be long if you have a busy schedule, but it can be a short meditation. Some people will meditate for hours but if you meditate just 10 minutes a day, it can help you to have more of an open mind.
You might even have to do as little as 2 to 5 minutes each day until you get used to it. It is hard to not be distracted by things around you and when you meditate it helps you to learn to get rid of the distractions and to be able to hear things in your mind better and to listen to your intuition.
You can try different kinds of meditation and mindfulness if you have a hard time sitting for any period of time.
Work with a Tool
There are different tools that you can use each day to help you to listen more to your intuition. As you learn things and you spend time with your tools, you will become stronger in your gifting. You should use the tool for about 10 minutes each day to start.
Once you pick your tool, you will want to figure out a way to use it. Stick with new things and practice them until you get them right. You can find a way to use these tools each day and you can follow the guidance of others to help you along the way.
Here are some tools that many people try out:
- Oracle cards.
- Tarot cards.
- Scrying.
- Tea leaf reading.
- Runes.
- Pendulums.
- Crystal Balls.
There are so many tools out there that are not even listed. Find ones that you want to try out and give it a try.
Connect with Your Intuition
The most important thing to do is to listen to your body and practice listening. When your muscles start building and you learn to hear your intuition, you will notice changes in your body. You need to be able to reach into the spirit world to be able to really get your intuition moving.
Intuition will always come to you in a physical way such as your body getting chills, or you are getting butterflies in your stomach.
Your intuition will be a strong sensation which is why people often call it a gut feeling. This can be a sign in your mind, a vision, ringing in your years or something that is just trying to get your attention. Learn to listen for signs and pay attention to the things that your body is trying to tell you.
As you practice listening to your intuition each day, you will see that meditating and using tools will help to strengthen you. You will also see that you can use your intuition to pay more attention to your body and how it feels, and this will give you confidence to know that you are hearing your intuition.
You can use the tools a few minutes each day, and you will see fast results. Keep trying until your intuition gets as strong as you want it to. The more you practice the stronger your intuition will be.
The list of tools like Oracle cards and Tarot cards as aids in strengthening intuition is interesting. It suggests that these tools serve more as a medium for developing latent intuitive skills rather than having any inherent magical properties.
Meditation as a method to strengthen intuition is a fascinating idea. The benefits of meditation on the mind are well-documented, and extending that to intuitive abilities seems logical.
The analogy of intuition being like a muscle is quite apt. It makes sense that regular practice and mindfulness would enhance one’s innate abilities, just like physical exercise strengthens the body.
The emphasis on physical sensations—such as chills or butterflies in the stomach—as indicators of intuition is noteworthy. It’s a reminder that intuition is often experienced in very tangible, bodily ways.
It’s intriguing to see the different ‘clair’ abilities listed out. Many people often confuse intuition with clairvoyance or other psychic abilities, so the distinction provided here is quite helpful.
