3 Common Characteristics of People with Strong Intuition

Do you recognize these three common characteristics of people with strong intuition and honor yourself for them?

People with strong intuition have widely varied traits, yet they all have some common characteristics. We all have intuitive ability. In this article, I’m talking about the traits of people who live fully tuned into their innate psychic natures.

1. Imagination is a CHARACTERISTIC of people with strong INTUITION

The first characteristic commonly held by those with strong intuition is imagination.  Imagination stems from the creative part of your brain and opens the doorway to daydreams and visions. Daydreams provide an abundance of soul-level guidance.

When you imagine, you see pictures on your internal screen of your mind’s eye. This is the same place where you see psychic visions.

The canvas of your mind’s eye is where your guides paint intuitive images for you. Your inner being and guides create pictures that you can understand and have some sort of personal meaning for you.

You also use imagination when using the psychic technique of projection. Projecting yourself into the future with your imagination empowers manifesting your desires. The distant Reiki symbol is helpful to empower your goals and project your consciousness.

Allow yourself to imagine often. It will strengthen your ability to see clearly on the screen of your mind’s eye. You can even ask questions of your higher self or guides and notice the inner visions you have. Ideas pop in your mind in the context of your imagination. Those are your divine answers.

When using Reiki, allow your mind to wander and notice any thoughts or images that appear. This is the Reiki energy using your imagination to communicate with you.

2. Focused on inner perceptions

The second characteristic of someone with strong intuition is being inwardly focused on your own perceptions. The ability to turn in and notice what’s going on within yourself is a key aspect of being strongly intuitive. This helps build trust in what you perceive. If you resist turning inward, you will have a hard time distinguishing your guidance from other people’s influence.

Confidence in your own inner awareness and intuitive guidance is often developed by trial and error. After regretting not trusting your own inner knowing, the inner confidence comes in.  

Hindsight is 20/20. For example, those moments when you say to yourself, “I knew I should have done that.” Often followed by, “Why did I listen to so and so?” Those times help you trust the guidance that comes next time. Keep track of when you intuition was right, even if you failed to act on it at the time.

What it comes down to, is understanding that your inner sensations are telling you something about the unseen in your life (or the lives of those around you) and fully trusting that information.

This ability to turn within and trust your inner world is what helps distinguish between intuitive guidance and fear based, wishful thinking or other people’s influence. Until you have the confidence of trusting your guidance, you may have the inclination to think your are making things up.

It just takes a little practice to fully cultivate the confidence in the intuitive information and trust that it isn’t just the imagination. If you are seeking answers, usually, the first thing that pops into mind is the intuitive information. After that your logical mind takes over.

Your inner perceptions are there guiding you and helping you choose the best option for you in any given moment. Remember to turn within to find your clarity. The answers always come from within.

3. Sensitivity

The third characteristic of strongly intuitive people is they are very sensitive to the energy around them, whether it be thoughts, feeling, emotions. Intuitive individuals are always picking up on what’s going on around them.

Unless you have the proper tools which enable you to run your own energy, you could be uncomfortable or over-stimulated in larger groups of people. You may not even be able to tell which emotions and thoughts are your own. You might think you feel one way, then get away from others and find out that you feel completely different.

For example, when you are with other who are sad about something, you may experience feeling sad and even cry. When you are back by yourself you realize that you don’t really feel sad at all. You were just energetically feeling their sadness in your energy body.

In conclusion, if you recognize these characteristics in yourself you are most certainly a person with strong intuition.

Lastly, Reiki helps you live more comfortably with your energetic sensitivity.
