Intuition: Our Path to

Power,
Purpose,
Prosperity, and
Peace
by Marie Simpson

Our lives can truly be transformed by developing and using our intuition. I first remember knowing that I was psychic when I was 8 or 9 years old. I was talking with a girlfriend at a picnic and telling her about what different people were thinking and feeling. She asked me how I knew those things, and I replied, “Don’t you?” Until that time, I truly believed that everyone was in touch with their intuition. I didn’t realize until adulthood, working as a professional psychic, what a wonderful and powerful gift our intuition is for all of us.

More and more, people are asking me how to get in touch with their intuition, how to know if it is really their intuition they are feeling, and how to use it to their greatest benefit. As an intuitive counselor, speaker, and teacher, I assure them that developing their intuition is a simple process. The process is accelerated because when we desire a spiritual and peaceful life, we naturally have a desire to be fully connected to our higher selves.

Getting in Touch with Your Intuition
To begin developing our intuition, we need to clear out our lives and our emotions as much as possible. Begin in your immediate surroundings, clearing out the clutter – letting go of what no longer serves you. Give away, throw away, and sell all of the excess “things” in your life. Then you can begin to look within. What do you see? Are your emotions clear or is there much that you are holding on to? How are your relationships? Full of love or full of anger, pain, and anxiety? Are you still holding on to anger and resentment from the past? Taking an assessment of your emotional and spiritual life will help you know where to begin. When you feel that you have truly begun to “ clear out” the old “stuff,” you can then begin connecting with your inner self.

Meditation and visualization are also valuable tools when we are developing our psychic sense. Meditations can be done in whatever time you have available; consistency is the most important.

Knowing if It Is Really Your Intuition that You are Feeling
Your intuitive answers often come “in a flash.” The answer may be in the form of a thought or in the form of a feeling within your heart or your solar plexus (gut). You will have a sense of knowing. Intuition doesn’t take arduous reasoning or thinking. It just is. As you practice using it and following it, you will automatically know when information is coming from your higher self.

Using Intuition to Your Greatest Benefit

Accepting Your Power
As we grow and evolve we also begin to search and look for the deeper meanings of life.

We begin to understand the Universal Laws and sub-laws and their power in our lives. Events taking place in our world begin to make more sense to us. We no longer wonder why certain things happen, even if they appear tragic at first glance. We can begin to look within to see if the part we are playing in the world is contributing to peace or to chaos, and we can then make the necessary adjustments within ourselves. We will no longer view ourselves as victims; we know that we truly do have power over our thoughts and our actions. Our thoughts and actions affect not only our lives; but also have the power to change the world on all levels!

Realizing Peace
If you happen to be in a situation that is causing you great anguish – and you are having a problem hearing your intuition, sit or lie down for a moment, take 2 deep breaths and say to yourself, “relax”, “let go.” Allow a few moments for your mind and your emotions to clear. Look at your situation and ask yourself what you have control over. If there is something you can do to change your situation, move forward on it. If you do not have control over it – REALIZE THIS! This realization will bring peace of mind. Continue to assess your life and look at what you want to change and what you do not have control over. Feeling anguish in a situation that we are not in control of, is a major energy drain. Today our lives are so busy that we need all of our energy to move forward and manifest our heart’s desire.

I am often asked about using intuition in relationships. If we pay attention to our intuition we will be saved much pain. When we don’t listen and follow our guidance, that means we have a lesson to learn. If you feel “stuck” in a relationship that is not positive and supportive, ask yourself why you are there and what lesson you are supposed to learn from this experience. Once you can answer these questions, you will find that you can move on to a more positive experience. This may also be an important lesson in forgiveness. Ask yourself, “ Do I need to forgive the other person, or do I need to forgive myself?” Sometimes it is most difficult to forgive ourselves. Once we realize that all relationships are important learning tools, we no longer feel the need to blame ourselves for becoming involved in an unhealthy one. Leaving a non-supportive or abusive relationship, letting it go and forgiving everyone involved is a tremendous sign of self-love. Sometimes we have to cut our losses and move on. When you begin to feel grateful for these learning experiences it is a wonderful sign of great spiritual evolvement. This is a KEY to inner peace.

Finding Your Purpose
As you realize your power you will begin to see your true PURPOSE in this lifetime. Trust the process of the universe. You will begin to attract like-minded people into your life who will support your ideas. Set goals for yourself, and make a plan to reach them. Remember that you chose a special path – a special purpose for yourself long ago. Allow your life to flow in that direction with special guidance from within.

Experiencing Your Prosperity
Give thanks. Gratitude and thanksgiving are the keys to opening the doors to Prosperity.

We need to understand that what we focus on expands. If we are focusing on our negative feelings, more negative  experiences will come to us to match our feelings. Focus on something that you are truly grateful for, something that makes you happy or brings you joy. The universe will respond with a wonderful experience to match your feelings.

As we become more sensitive to our higher self, we begin to value ourselves more. We begin to also realize how  important it is to take care of ourselves – to eat healthy food, drink plenty of water, exercise, enjoy the fresh air and create space for ourselves.

Begin with yourself. Know the value of your intuition. It is love. It is Spirit. It is your connection to all of the Blessings you so richly deserve!
