Intuitive Strategy and Applied Discernment
Intuition is the emotional currency of the future workplace,
connecting your soul´s desire with the external forces.
Intuition is the ability to have direct access to unconscious knowledge without reasoning, insight into unconscious patterns and profound understanding of the deeper meaning between the lines.
To some, it can manifest physically, as a bodily sensation, to some it can come in an innate knowing, to some in emotional currency, to some as pictures in their inner mind - WE ALL HAVE INTUITION:
... and the good thing?
It can be trained and mastered.
Rupert Sheldrake, who studied biochemistry in Cambridge, additionally philosophy and history of science in Harvard, has long been known for his theory of the morphic resonance and its field, the morphogenetic field, upon which individuals imprint their habits, and the field then causes subsequent generations to show that habit, behaviour or mannerism within their own species.
"Morphic resonance is a process whereby self-organising systems inherit a memory from previous similar systems. In its most general formulation, morphic resonance means that the so-called laws of nature are more like habits. The hypothesis of morphic resonance also leads to a radically new interpretation of memory storage in the brain and of biological inheritance. Memory need not be stored in material traces inside brains, which are more like TV receivers than video recorders, tuning into influences from the past. And biological inheritance need not all be coded in the genes, or in epigenetic modifications of the genes; much of it depends on morphic resonance from previous members of the species. Thus each individual inherits a collective memory from past members of the species, and also contributes to the collective memory, affecting other members of the species in the future." (Rupert Sheldrake)
Also intensly interested in
Indian philosophy,
Hinduism
and
transcendental meditation, Sheldrake went to spend time in an Ashram in India to study the Vedas, Buddhism and Sufism.
He became internationally known for his extraordinary interest in inutition and telepathy between humans as well as between humans and animals, publishing several experiments and studies, conducted on rats, birds and dogs, thereby finding obvious relations between the learned behaviour of a species in one place and the inherited habits of the same species in a completely different place, from where they could have never inherited the specific learned behaviour genetically, but rather adapted via morphic resonance.
This theory suggests that we are all connected in an energetic, morphogenetic field, constantly storing, fermenting and emanating information within that field, which may lead to a specific evolution or trait in a species.
It makes sense that the same energetic field can be tapped into by human consciousness and further explored for intuitive purposes.
If you wish to train and master your own intuition, learn to listen to yourself first and learn to discern intuition from trauma based triggers and fear, two major road blocks on the road to successfully interpreting the voice within.
Science so far has told us that intuition is partly based on past experiences, which our brain keeps constantly matching with current experiences automatically and subconsciously thereby recognizing patterns and subtle clues,
which is precisely the reason why your "gut feeling" might fail you and re-traumatize you, because what presented itself as intuition was actually just a trauma trigger that got reactivated, putting your body in a stressful fight or flight state.
Let me elaborate here a bit more: As example, let us assume you have once been scared by someone in a dark parking spot, which caused you anxiety and trauma and from now on, everytime you pull up on any dark driveway, your "intuition" tells you to be extra careful, hyping up your senses to the maximum alert. What actually just happened, was your trauma response triggering fear:
Whilst in this scenario, the upcoming fear might almost seem rational, since it is common knowledge that dark spots can attract predators,
instead of identifying it wrongly as intuition, TRUE INTUITION is based on unexplainable knowing WITHOUT relatable experiences, when toddlers, animals or uninformed, unbiased people "just know" stuff and cannot explain why or where they got these clues from.
The dangerous element in a situation, where you misjudge fear or trauma based triggers as intuition, is the manifesting momentum within: Too much fear and trauma triggers will keep your body in its fight or flight mode, therefore unconsciously attracting exactly those experiences you wished to avoid into your life due to your matching energy - YES, YOU CAN ABSOLUTELY "CURSE YOURSELF" !
Same goes the other way round, you might as well identify something wrongly as a trauma trigger, something small that used to scare you as a kid but was not really scary, yet haunted you a few times, now you have a likewise experience, dump it as just some short reminiscence, almost laughing about yourself, when in fact it was your intuition warning you.
Herein lies the importance to further distinguish between fear, intuition and trauma.
Whereas intuition can spur you into movement, it is not necessarily connected to fearful situations, intuition itself has no polarity and is even received best when the emotions are balanced.
Learn to listen to your inner voice in silence and avoid asking questions or making up scenarios in your mind to match your desired outcome, this is contraproductive and will drag your consciousness down rather than opening it up to information from the morphogenetic field, which in many cultures will also be called the Akashic Records.
Get to know your sensory type and how it expresses itself, from auditory to visual or kinesthetic or even all of them:
Do you get chills, a rapid heartbeat, do you smell something, do you hear something, can you see something in your inner mind?
HOW and WHEN do useful clues normally come to you?
Do you almost hear voices in your head?
When you concentrate on them or when you least expect them?
When you are alone or in a group?
How do they present themselves?
As bodily sensation? Some kind of knowing? Some kind of sound or picture within?
Sudden coincidences matching your life path and presenting a glimpse of the future..?
Whatever your sensory type is and you can have several, the goal is to strengthen your intuitive connection with exactly those small clues you are getting, especially, when they ARE NOT TIED to relatable experiences, only then you can be sure to have an example of pure intuition and not made up fantasy or triggered cell memory you are unaware of.
The next level of intuition is telepathy, a skill all of us have within our human DNA, which I will explore in another article.
