How to Build that Good Good Intuition
Lovelies, I want to start by saying this is my own UPG. What is UPG? UPG or also "unverified personal gnosis" is basically my own spiritual and energetic experience, and what I have personally gotten from it. Therefore, what I am about to discuss may or may not be your same experience. And that is a-okay! Alright, let's get to it.
I would like to say that EVERYONE is capable of building their intuition. Some people may be more connected, and therefore it may come more easily. But that doesn't mean that someone else can't harness growth in their intuition up to the same advanced level. Before I get to it, let me say that a little more clearly for the witches/practitioners in the back that may not still understand this concept. Everyone, no matter your "magickal lineage," your gender, your race, religious background or lack thereof. If you are a person, you have this innate ability.
Now that that is out of the way, let's talk first thoughts. First thoughts were taught to me by a couple different deities, and they are literally the first thought your brain jumps to when encountering something. For example, maybe you are doing a tarot reading, and your first gut instinct is to choose a card halfway through the deck. That little voice, or that little desire to reach for that card is the first thought. It is your ethereal being telling you to pick that card.
That said, this also occurs while we are doing normal mundane tasks as well. A couple weeks ago a woman came into the store I used to work at, wanting to buy a salve from my own business. I told her I would bring her one the next day. Well next day comes around, and my first thought was to pack three instead of only one for her. She comes in, explains how she actually wants to buy two, one for her friend as well. Later that same day, I had a repeat customer of mine come in and buy the third jar I brought. What you have to understand, usually our first thoughts are right on the money.
But how do we get to that point of trusting ourselves? It takes a lot of internal work and healing. Not only that, but building the habit of listening to those first thoughts, and acting upon them. I am in no way suggesting anyone should act upon first thoughts that are harmful to themselves, others, or their environment. That isn't the point of this post. What I am trying to explain, is that say you are trying to decide what herb you want to use in your upcoming spell. Is there an herb that just keeps coming up in your mind? Like for no reason that is clear to your monkey brain, but that thought of incorporating this particular herb, just feels right. Maybe you are feeling called to go for a hike, and when choosing where you want to go, there is one place that literally just the thought of walking there makes your soul sing. Listen to that. Follow that primal soul desire. That is your first thoughts, and by recognizing them and following them (as long as it is safe I swear to the GODS DON"T HURT YOURSELVES), you will be on the fast track towards being that scarily intuitive bad witch you have always dreamed of being.
I mean shit, I followed my first thoughts and moved across the country to be where my soul sings. Now my soul is a professional opera singer. It won't shut up, and honestly, I don't want it to.
As always, if you would like to support me, send me a follow! Or go check out my amazing salve on my website! Do you have skin? Does it get dry or itchy? Do you want something more natural to maybe put on those god awful hemorrhoids? Yeah I said it, they're a bitch to deal with, but not for long with this epic salve. Go look at it. Seriously.
