Intuition is our ability to understand something immediately without the need for conscious reasoning. But how does intuition really work?

Your intuition functions just like a radio does 📻

In order for you to listen to music, there has to be an external source sending a radio wave or signal that you then tune into on your personal radio device. There is both a sender of the signal and a receiver of the signal. Both parts are necessary in order for you to actually hear music. 

If the signal was never sent, you wouldn’t be able to hear any music. But if there is static or a problem with the antenna of your radio, you also won’t be able to hear the music. 

When it comes to intuition, the “signal” or intuitive guidance is being sent by your higher self, your spirit guide/guide team, or the universe. YOU, or rather your energy field, is the receiver of their signal.

When they send a signal it is downloaded into your energy field the same way computers download files. But for you to be able to “open” their download, your energy field has to be clear from static and your antenna has to be tuned to the appropriate station. 

Your intuition has a CLEAR SIGNAL, so you are tapped in, tuned in, and turned on. You understand how your own energy field influences your ability to receive intuitive guidance and you make intentional shifts when you notice you are stuck in a lower vibration. You have already been doing the work to make sure that you are an intentional receiver and it shows.

You are able to easily differentiate between your intuition and the sound of your own thoughts. You can tune out your mental chatter and listen to the quiet whisper of your intuitive guidance that is beneath the noise. You decide to trust that whisper even when it doesn’t make sense to your logical mind which strengthens your intuition muscle.

Having a CLEAR SIGNAL helps you move through life with clarity and confidence. When you face decisions, you tap into your intuition and know the best decision for you without having to overthink it. 

Your focus is to keep your receiver (energy field) open and ready to receive intuitive guidance. When you notice your vibe is off or you’re out of alignment, make intentional shifts to raise yourself back to a higher vibration. 

The next step is to identify your primary “clair” and then actively work on developing it. Most people have one or two clairs that are the most dominant (i.e., the most common ways they receive intuitive guidance).

The four most common clairs are:

• Claircognizance or clear knowing

• Clairsentience or clear feeling

• Clairaudience or clear hearing

• Clairvoyance or clear seeing 

A tip to figure out your dominant clair, is to listen to your own word choice when you’re asking someone if they understand what you are saying.

• Saying “does that make sense?” indicates claircognizance

• Saying “do you feel me?” indicates clairsentience

• Saying “how does that sound?” indicates clairaudience

• Saying “do you see what I mean?” indicates clairvoyance

Which one of these do you hear yourself saying most often?? Whichever one it is, is probably your most dominant clair and the natural way you are already receiving intuitive information. Keep working on that clair and develop its accuracy even more!
