During these past months, I’ve received several questions along the same lines:

“Why is my intuition sometimes crystal clear and other times clear as mud? Am I doing something wrong?”

The good news is that intuition is part of the human experience; we’re hard-wired to tune into the subtleties inside. Regardless of our path or our past, we can’t lose the connection we share with our soul.

Look up at the moon. Our Earth is locked in rotation with our celestial companion. Where we go, the moon goes too. Yet, some nights the moon seems invisible, shrouded in darkness, millions of miles away. Wait a few evenings, and suddenly, a sliver of light, a crescent sheen, a curve that glows, reminds us that the moon has been there all along.

While full, the moon seems touchable, close, brilliant, clear.

Similarly, our intuition naturally and rhythmically waxes and wanes through phases of our lives. In times when we don’t “see” or “hear” messages, we have an opportunity to trust and be still. Those are the moments to wait, rest, take time to breathe.

As this shifts, and it always will, we learn to trust the little nudges and pay attention to the small signs. Gentle messages teach us to stay in the moment and take things one choice at a time. In our culture of extremes and polarities, these tender messages help us stay focused and centered just where we are.

Then, intuitive messages are full, bright, and clear. So we act, choose, and go! The rewards come as we patiently listen, willingly wait, and graciously learn, that we cannot separate ourselves from our intuition. We’re locked in.

I encourage you to embrace this. Have faith, hold fast, listen deeply to the small, still voice. Your intuition can only bless you, and you are worthy of love.
