The Laws of Attraction/Laws of the Universe part 4
Intuition So let me step away from this part of the subject and discuss intuition as it has a lot to do with how we attract and “think” about things in our lives and also about what we feel we deserve.
Most people are led to believe that humans are limited and fragile creatures and are only capable of perceiving a small amount of the world around us. We have been taught that we are victims and should accept the conditions that befall us.
Life is a series of choices and every day - everything you choose creates your reality. In modern day society we no longer need to be concerned about survival skills. Unlike most animals who still depend on their extra senses for them to survive all of our needs are taken care, so our sensory skills have become quite inferior.
We all know about energy. All creation depends on the interaction of two forces female/yin, male/yang. The brain has 2 hemispheres, which control the opposite sides of the body. The left side is dominated by the right brain or feminine side while the left brain governs the right or masculine side.
The dictionary definition of intuition is "quick and ready insight" and "the act or process of coming to direct knowledge without reasoning or inferring." It is derived from the Latin word "intueri" which means, "to see within." Intuition is a lot like dreaming. We don't know how we do it, but we do it.
Intuitive knowledge comes to us spontaneously and directly, without the use of reason or logical thought. Some people trust their intuition - they "believe" in it and act on it. Others deny intuitive information or distrust it as "irrational."
In philosophy, intuition is the power of obtaining knowledge that cannot be acquired either by inference or observation, by reason or experience. As such, intuition is thought of as an original, independent source of knowledge, since it is designed to account for just those kinds of knowledge that other sources do not provide. Knowledge of necessary truths and of moral principles is sometimes explained in this way.
Attention is the power behind imagination and imagination is the source of all creation. If you can imagine it and concentrate or intend it, you can make it happen. It is the vehicle for the transmission of essential life energy. Wherever attention goes – energy flows. That is the key to attracting things in your life.
Explanations usually come along with intuitive messages on a "need to know basis." When the bigger, more important messages need to surface, they will, so pay attention! Listen with your heart! We know that the heart has many more neurons than it would need just for circulation of blood.
By following through on your everyday hunches, you are actually taking test drives, virtually homing in on your listening skills.. These skills will serve you well. Everyone is apparently somewhat psychic, but many people just have flabby psychic muscles.
Learning to listen to your inner dialog tones and strengthens this muscle. The more you use your intuition, the better you get at it. When we choose to ignore our gut instincts, we are only hurting ourselves.
Listening to your intuition is the essence of art and creativity and soulful living. Intuition is what you use to find the purpose of your life and your place in the world. Once you awaken your inner guide by unlocking the wisdom of your subconscious mind, you already know what to do. Being objective is harder when you are emotionally involved. It is more mature to admit your emotions as a factor than to deny them. This is also a way to attract more of what is right for you in your life.
There are three types of Intuition
1. Personal Intuition - knowledge from the personal unconscious that has been taken in, stored and synthesized. This knowledge comes to us intuitively in the form of "gut feelings," creative insights and through our "little voices."
2. Interpersonal Intuition - information about other people derived from unconscious observation and their non-verbal behavior. This may take the form of accurate first impressions and help one in being a good judge of character.
3. Transpersonal Intuition - A term for psychic phenomena. This is intuitive information about situations, places and people unknown to the personal unconscious; it typically comes in a way that defies ordinary time and space. This would include things like precognitive dreams, remote viewing, synchronicities, etc.
If you look at the inner workings of a watch you would see many wheels moving separately but yet efficiently with each other. The “mind” works this way too. We have different “minds or selves”.
1. The conscious self is the part we commonly think of as “I am”. It is the human or social self and is centered in your head. It is the part that speaks and communicates by talking. It is the director, decision maker and goal setter. It is considered masculine because it is forceful and is the role of the teacher, leader and the beginning of all things.
2. The subconscious or natural self is directed by the conscious self and never “sleeps”. It is highly influenced, feminine in nature and its job is manifesting the intentions of the conscious self and achieving goals. It is centered in your solar plexus. It has the power to commune with other aspects of the natural world and feels unity with them. This is why many people are sensitive to weather changes because our physical body systems are controlled by the natural self and possesses the wisdom or knowledge of how to maintain and develop the body to maturity.
3. The super-conscious is also called the higher self and is the part of the mind that goes beyond the world of nature and encompasses all that there is. It is our connection to the Divine nature and can be encountered in fantasy, imagination and dreams. Memories and wisdom from the past are contained within these realms. These remain outside your awareness until your conscious self is ready to bring it in. It is centered just over your head in the subtle body.
Energy is the essence of all that is. The desk in your room that you see as being solid wood is actually atoms and is not solid at all. In fact, it is a great deal more open space than solidity. Our bodies, when broken down to their smallest levels are also energetic frequencies.
All creation depends upon the interaction of 2 forces:
1. male/yang/fire, which is dominated by the left side of the brain and controls the right side of the body. This is our day-to-day functioning. Fire people are outgoing and active and tend to be initiators and organizers.
2. female/yin/water is dominated by the right side of the brain and controls the left side of the body. This is our intuitive ability. Water people are sensitive and introverted and enjoy solitude and mental rather than physical labor.
Next we will discuss that in order to truly develop a good sense of attraction we must first learn that we have the power within us to do just that. And you do!
