I have been feeling very energized lately because life feels like it is flowing nicely. I feel like my intuition has been very active and that guidance is always there when I need it. I wanted to talk today about intuition and our sense of knowing. I have come to realize that there is in you and I this available higher knowing that is always there when we ask. My experience has been that when I feel something is the right thing to do, and I feel it clearly then I know it is the right thing to do. The more I trust my intuitive knowing the more it is available to me. The more I go with this inner knowing the more I create the results I want. This feels good and I want to keep growing that trust in the part of me that does know.

I want to help you also grow the intuitive knowing and your receptivity to guidance. Here are some ideas I want to share. I have learned to trust my intuition by playing with it. I remember when I was a grad student and living in San Francisco and I would guess when the next bus would come to take me across town. If I paid attention to my sense of inner knowing, I got to the stop in time to catch the bus, if not I often just missed it or waited a long time. I often guess who is calling on the phone or what is in the surprise package I receive. I have fun with tapping into my inner knowing because that keeps me light and open. Kind of like, “angels can fly because they take themselves so lightly.” I have found the lighter I am about life, the more I know and can open to the flow. That little rhyme came from being open to letting my hands do the writing.

It has been my experience over and over again that there is always guidance when I am open to receiving it. I have another story about asking for guidance and how open you need to be to get your message from wherever it may come from. My friend Jonathan had been considering a trip to India during the Christmas holidays and had asked for guidance so he could decide whether to stay home for the holidays or go to India. He said to the universe I want to know what would be the best for me to do in the next week? On Sunday the last day of that next week Jonathan was channel surfing and came upon a TV ministry and for some odd reason he actually stop to watched for a few minutes. He never watches those programs so he found himself curious why he was feeling it was right to stop. In just a minute he knew why. The Minister was talking about why it was important to go to India, an unusually topic for this kind of program. Jonathan was now fully attentive to what this minister was saying. Then the part that gives me goose bumps every time. The minister then looked directly into the camera and said, Jonathan, you need to go to India. WOW if that isn’t clear message from the universe, I don’t know what is.

If you ask, you can know. If you learn to listen deeply you will always be guided. If you call on the universe to show you the way, you will be shown.

It is so much easier when you open to the aid of the universe. You don’t have to do it alone anymore.
