Intuition vs Fear

I was asked recently how to tell the difference between ones true intuition or ones fear about situations, events and people. I have been contemplating this since then and have collected and written my thoughts,feelings and experiences over the years with deciphering the feelings associated with true intuition and inner fears. This subject undoubtedly has many possibilities and potential. With intuition I see and sense signs from the beginning. I often notice immediately that something is amiss or 'off'. This is sensed or felt with a lack of emotion. It feels more like an observation and has a sense at times of awe and expansiveness. It's that hmmm moment. For me, intuition comes in like gentle radio waves that slowly focus into a clarity and holds an aspect of being reasonable. Even in demanding situations, intuition does not scream negativity, in fact it doesn't scream at all. The voice that begs to be heard while causing physical reactions such as pupil dialation,racing pulse and heart palpitations is fear...with no solid reasoning. That is not to say that warnings are not a part of intuition. Indeed they can be, again, they lack an emotional component. This is why a true earth events psychic presents more factual details and lacks raised emotion or drama.

My intuition [ can be different for others] will often spark suggestions via 'snapshot'visual flashes, and often offers peaceful guidance during the course of what I am experiencing and what decision I need to make.

There is a persistent and reoccurrence that goes along with intuition, gut feelings or 'spidey senses'. It repeats typically the same and feels expansive, with a sense of just knowing. Fear causes feelings of retraction, stifling or suffocation. There is often a feeling of urgency while the imagination expands wildly. This is when our fear programming kicks in and steps on our innate intuition.

Reoccuring irrational fears much of the time revolve around phobias such as failure, loss and lack of control. A lack of feeling in control is a precursor to possible paranoia and fear based thoughts that can then result in self sabotoging behavior. At this stage the mind creates a warning that causes an irrational false 'message'. Plain and simple, intuition is not that complicated or emotional.
