Your Intuition is Trying to Talk to You & Here’s How to Actually Listen

Intuition is not something only certain people have. Everyone has it. The difference is not ability, but attention. Most people are taught to ignore their intuition in favor of logic, outside opinions, or fear. Over time, that quiet inner voice becomes harder to hear, not because it is gone, but because it is drowned out.

What Intuition Actually Feels Like

Intuition is often subtle. It is not usually loud, dramatic, or emotional. It tends to show up as a quiet knowing, a sense of comfort or discomfort, a gentle pull, or a feeling that something either fits or does not. It can also appear as hesitation, clarity, or a feeling that something needs more time. Intuition does not rush, but fear and desperation do.

Why Intuition Gets Ignored

Many people doubt their intuition because they are afraid of being wrong. Others mistake anxiety, desire, or overthinking for intuitive guidance.

Intuition is calm, even when it delivers an uncomfortable truth. Anxiety feels urgent and spiraling. Learning the difference takes time and self-awareness.

How to Create Space to Listen

Intuition is easiest to hear when you slow down. This does not require meditation or silence, although those can help. It simply requires presence. Pausing before decisions, taking a breath, and checking in with how something feels rather than how it looks allows intuition to surface. Silence is not required, but attention is.

Trust Builds Through Practice

Intuition strengthens when it is acknowledged and respected. The more you listen and act on it, even in small ways, the clearer it becomes. Ignoring intuition repeatedly teaches the mind to override it. Listening teaches one to speak more clearly. This is a relationship, not a skill you master overnight.

Intuition and Spiritual Work

Spiritual tools, rituals, readings, and guidance can support intuition, but they should never replace it. Your inner knowing is always the foundation. When browsing my offerings, deciding on next steps, or reflecting on a situation, intuition often shows up as what feels steady rather than what feels urgent. Learning to listen here can support every area of your life.

When Intuition Feels Unclear

There will be times when intuition feels quiet or confusing. This usually happens during emotional overwhelm, exhaustion, or stress. In those moments, grounding, rest, and patience are more helpful than forcing answers. Intuition returns when space is created.

Your intuition is always communicating. Listening is not about perfection or certainty; it is about willingness. When you slow down and allow yourself to feel rather than analyze, intuition becomes easier to recognize.
