Developing Your Intuition

Intuition is such a wonderful gift that the the Divine Creator has given to us.  It's a special gift that allows you the opportunity and the ability to tune into the energy of the world around us to understand it.  Because it's outside of your five primary senses many have to sit in meditation or in silence to listen to the whispers of their heart.  Many remember having easy access to their intuition as a child and then something, somewhere along their development happened when they either shut it down, or simply forgot to stay in touch with it.  

You were born with this gift of intuition, so you still have it within you.  The spiritual gifts that you were born with cannot be taken away from you.  You just may have to be a little bit more proactive to connect with it now.  And to access it "at will" you'll have to practice connecting with it and using it frequently, so you can ultimately access it whenever you want.

An intuitive tip to help you to begin working on your intuition - whether it's your ability to be clairvoyant, clairaudient, or clairsentient is to practice the exercise below. 

1.  Write down a question you'd like to have answered.   
2.  Find a quiet place to just BE, either inside or outside.  
3.  You can also listen to some relaxing music as it helps your physical body to relax.  
4.  Close your eyes.
5.  Focus on your crown chakra. 
6.  Connect your crown chakra with a large golden sphere that's about 3 feet above the top of your head.  This sphere connects to the Divine Consciousness of the Universe.
7.  Focus on root chakra.  
8.  Imagine roots coming from your root chakra and the bottoms of your feet to connect with the center of the Earth.  
9.  Doing both, connecting with the Divine and connecting with Earth, help you remain connected with the Spirit realm and the Earth realm, keeping you in balance and harmony with both.  In order to practice your intuitive skills you have to be balanced - grounded on this plane, and connected with the spirit realm.  
10.  After you feel completely secured to both the spirit realm and Earth sit in silence for at least 15 minutes.
During this process your mind is going to race: you'll be thinking about all of the things you seemingly "have" to do, but what better priority than to strengthen your connection with yourself, the Divinity of the world around you and your own intuition. 
11.  Finally, ask your question....wait....and see what answer you receive.  Spirit communicates in symbolic language that only you understand.  They speak YOUR language.  So if you're a musician, they'll speak to you in song, if you're visual they'll speak to you in pictures, if you're more literal you'll see words.  They love using symbols because symbols communicate so much more than just words.  Watch for a symbol - it can be anything - animals, plants, people, celebrities, shapes, etc.  Communicating with Spirit is boundless.

If you think you may forget what you see, hear, or experience, then keep a pencil and paper handy so you can jot down the intuitive messages you receive.  
While still remaining in your silent mode, and after receiving your message, keep your eyes closed for a few more minutes.  This helps you become accustomed to the vibration of the energy you just connected with so you'll remember what it feels like the next time.

Finally, open your eyes, look around you, take a deep connecting breath and move forward with your day or evening.  Even if you didn't get a message this time, I guarantee if you keep practicing you will.
