Intuition- A Birth Right?

Intuition is sometimes nebulous, or so it seems.  Controversial?  Yes, definitely that word can be used to describe intuition.   This is what Wikipedia has to say about it.   is the ability to acquire knowledge without inference and/or the use of reason.[1] “The word ‘intuition’ comes from the Latin word ‘intueri’ which is usually translated as ‘to look inside’ or ‘to contemplate’.”[2] Intuition provides us with beliefs that we cannot justify in every case. For this reason, it has been the subject of study in psychology, as well as a topic of interest in the supernatural. The “right brain” is popularly associated with intuitive processes such as aesthetic abilities.[3][4][5] Some scientists have contended that intuition is associated with innovation in scientific discovery.[6] Intuition is also a common subject of New Age writings.[7].  Sorry the references for these notes are too long to list here.  If you are interested, Google Intuition and look at the Wikipedia definition.

Yes, these are a lot of ideas of how describe something that is so natural and is such a big part of our lives.  Perhaps, you have your own ideas as well.  Do you  have your own definition as well?  You have your own experiences with knowing and feeling and sensing things that don’t appear to be obvious.   We all do.  The challenge may be to not get caught up in the definition of what it might be or might not be or whether or not you agree with the description.  Just tune in and use IT!
