Mystical in nature, our third eye is typically known as the organ of inner perception and psychic gifts. Honestly, many of the conversations regarding intuition emphasize the third eye as the main source. However, for many, their intuitive abilities aren’t limited to their third eye, or they may experience their intuition in an entirely different area of the body. So if you don’t feel like you can see images when you close your eyes or have vivid visions, don’t fret, my friends!

Often, the assumption is that only the ones that can see auras are intuitive. However, this isn’t the case from my years of study, personal experiences, and talking with others. There are various ways one can intuit messages, and typically you have more than one. Before I give you a mini list of intuitive gifts, I invite you to explore the following questions:

1. When you close your eyes, is your mind full of images and colors? 
2. When you wake in the morning, can you easily recall your dreams?
3. When you are talking with someone, do you feel certain sensations in your body that don’t relate to how you feel? 
4. Do you ever feel like you have a deep sense of Knowing and you’re not sure why or where the information came from? 

Now that you have a few ideas in mind of what comes naturally to you, let’s dive in a little bit deeper and gain some clarity around what may be your dominant source of intuition.

1. If you see images and colors when you close your eyes, you may have the gift of clairvoyance. 
2. If you can easily recall your dreams, you may have the gift of dream recall or dream empathy. 
3. If you feel certain sensations in your body when you’re around others or in spaces, you may have the gift of somatic-based empathy or clairsentience.
4. If you feel like you have a deep sense of Knowing and you’re not sure why or where the information came from, you may have the gift of claircognizance.

Now please keep in mind that the above discussion isn’t an exhaustive list of innate gifts you may have. Nor does it account for other possible situation factors. The above mentions are merely a few suggestions that acft as a jumping-off point to dive in deeper if it calls to you.

While the above questions and discussion can be helpful for some, here is another approach I invite you to try. Take a moment to read the following list and see what jumps out to you. Try not to question it or force it, just allow yourself to read it over and notice what one you felt initially drawn to or one that you keep coming back to.

A mini list of Intuitive Gifts + Abilities + Healers:

• The Heart-Centered Healer connects to levels of empathy and understanding through the heart’s electromagnetic field. 
• The Intuitive Healer – uses combined modalities and gifts in a way that is done organically as they feel called to use 
• Clairaudience – gains information from the spiritual realms through channeling or hearing
• Claircognizance – an understanding and knowledge about something with no known source for the information. 
• Body-Based Empathy – able to detect smells, feelings, sensations, and awareness of others’ states in the self. 
• Hands-on Healer – uses their hands to interpret or shift energy 
• Precognition – foresight of the future
• Retrocognition – knowledge of past lives

After the above inquiry and review this list, has anything initially jumped out at you? Since everyone’s intuitive abilities are unique to them, you may be more of a responsive intuitive type that feels sensations or a sense of knowing when they read something or experience an event—something worth considering when you want to dive into your gifts even deeper.

While I wish I could discuss all the different types of intuitive gifts and how to access them or use them, my main hope in writing this is that whoever is reading this can use these words as a guide. Rather than this being a step-by-step method of the “best” way to access your gifts, this post is more of a tool to support you in uncovering your gifts. The best thing for your intuition is to explore what it means to you, and in doing this, you can connect with yourself more deeply and develop a sense of trust in yourself so that you know what is true for you. After all, only you really know. 

The further you journey into this work, the clearer you will come to know that we all are intuitive beings with our own unique gifts. They are not limited to the few. They are available to all that choose to dive into this work and are open to the mystery of the magic that is within them. Additionally, with continuous practice, you will come to learn how your intuitive gifts communicate with you and interact with the worlds around you. Our intuitive gifts are like muscles; the more you exercise your intuition, the more accessible it becomes when working with yourself and others.
