    That is so amazing. I believe in intuition and the absorption of energy in the universe, but I can never fully trust my feelings. However, how can you be sure to get the right result? Is there a way to change and trust? and How confident can we be that we have received the correct answer?

    • Starlight says:

      That is a fantastic question. I can say personally that I have become very trusting with my intuition. This has been due to the feelings that I get being completely accurate. The times when I was younger and did not trust my intuition fully, I found myself getting into trouble that could have been avoided. For example, I had a bad feeling about going to a party and ignored that feeling, which resulted in someone spiking my drink. 

      I think the trust comes with experience and going through life events that show you that your gut feelings are correct and are for your best interest. The confidence comes when you witness for yourself that your feelings can be trusted and that they are trying to communicate with you. 

      Intuition is really a super power when you learn to hone it. You will find that your life will enhance in many different aspects. You will know who you can trust. You will know what career path to take, whether to go on that date, etc, etc,

    The magic of intuition is a fascinating and often underestimated aspect of human experience. In my opinion, intuition is like a hidden superpower that we all possess, yet many of us fail to tap into its full potential. It is that inner voice, that gut feeling, that unexplainable sense of knowing that guides us in making decisions, even when logic and reasoning might not provide a clear answer. Intuition goes beyond mere instinct; it is a deep-seated wisdom that comes from a place beyond our conscious mind.

    • Starlight says:

      Hello Conner, 

      I absolutely agree! Intuition is like a silent guide within us, offering valuable insights that can be easily overlooked. It is fascinating how this inner wisdom often transcends the limits of logic and taps into something deeper. Embracing and trusting our intuition can indeed be a powerful tool for navigating life’s uncertainties. It is like having a built-in compass for our personal journey.
