Reclaiming the Ancient Knowing Within

We live in a world that demands proof—facts, receipts, logic. But for witches, mystics, and seekers, there is another way of navigating: through intuition. It’s not a vague feeling or some rare psychic talent. It is your soul’s internal compass—quiet, ancient, and powerfully yours.
We are taught to dismiss it. To prioritize logic over gut, politeness over perception, performance over presence. We were conditioned to ask for permission before trusting what we already knew. But here’s the truth: intuition is not something you earn. It’s something you remember.
It’s the soft knowing before the world starts shouting. The hush before the storm. The chill that crawls over your skin when something’s off. The warmth that rises in your chest when you are deeply aligned. It lives in your bones, your belly, your dreams. And the more you listen, the louder it gets.
🧠But How Do You Know If It’s Real?
Intuition doesn’t scream. It doesn’t always come with explanations. It doesn’t ask to be proven—it asks to be felt. Sometimes it shows up as a whisper in your gut. Sometimes it’s a random song on the radio, a recurring image in dreams, or a sense that something is wrong without knowing why.
You’re not broken if it feels faint. You’ve just been trained to turn it down. But it’s still there—beneath the noise, behind the masks, waiting for you to return to it.
🗝️ A Practice to Begin Reconnecting
Try this:
Hold a small object in your hand—a key, a bell, a crystal, a stone. Close your eyes. Breathe with it. Ask:
- What does this object want to say to me?
- What sensations or images arise as I hold it?
- Does my body respond in any particular way?
You’re not trying to guess a right answer—you’re practicing trusting the way you receive. Whether you see, feel, hear, or just know something… it counts.
✨ A Body-Based Compass
Another way to build your intuitive muscle is through your body. Try a simple check-in:
- Think of a full-body yes.
Where do you feel it? Does your breath open? Do your shoulders relax? - Now think of a full-body no.
What tightens? What contracts or closes?
Your body holds wisdom older than words. This is your internal divination tool—always available, always honest.

Want to explore your intuitive journey? Write on these prompts:
- When have I ignored my intuition? What happened?

Let your answers surprise you. The goal is not perfection—it’s presence.
đź’¬ One Final Thought
If you’ve ever said, “I knew it”—you were already listening. The path forward is learning to listen sooner, and to honor that knowing without needing permission.
Intuition is your sacred inheritance.
It’s your power, your guide, your truth.
And it’s time to trust it again.
