What is Intuition?
How do you trust your intuition?
These are the most common question asked about Intuition.
Intuition is messages from your spiritual being to your physical self in order to create an action. It is the way the body and the spirit communicate. You can receive these intuitive messages in many ways as they come from the spirit to the physical.
Intuition is beyond any doubt; it is a deep-seated knowing that creates an automatic response. Often that response is of an emotional nature or we experience it as an emotion. We could see something that reminds us of an experience that has happened in the past. This can bring forward an emotional response that has come from your spirit as an intuitive message.
When we experience emotion, we respond or act accordingly. However, if the emotion appears to be of a negative aspect we can react to that instead of going deeper to see what the real intuitive message is all about.
We can discover more as we sit with our feelings and let our intuition come through. Then it becomes beyond questioning and it is more than a feeling; it is a genuine knowing. An Intuitive understanding directly from your Spiritual self through your Intuition.
One thing we must remember about our two bodies that is the Spiritual Being does not have the physical senses as the physical Human does. Only a Human can touch, taste, smell, see, and hear. Spirit knows but cannot experience unless they are in a physical body.
Intuition. Our sixth sense
Intuition is also called our 6th Sense which is to a certain degree because we refer to our senses in the physical realm. The 6th Sense is in the Spiritual realm that comes through into the physical environment. Developing your intuition will help you in many ways.
It is like riding a bike. You can learn all about it, how to sit on the seat, how to pedal and steer but until you really sit on a bike and ride it you have not experienced it. You cannot feel the wind in your hair, the feeling of exhilaration as you balance yourself around a corner, or even the experience of crashing into a nearby fence. Spiritual beings need to be in the physical body to really experience the physical senses.
Beliefs are influenced by culture, creating differences, tensions, and doubts about that belief. Intuition is a deep-seated knowing. You know what to do or what to say. You even know how to do it without ever being taught.
You don’t question it or think twice about it, you act upon it, not knowing why or second-guessing it. It can come through as a ‘Gut Feeling’ which usually means it has come through the Sacral or Solar Plexus chakras and you feel it in the stomach area.
A knowing or intuition is a thought, an action, or a feeling that does not hold any doubt. Intuition has also been classed as innate knowledge, a type of knowledge we are already aware of. This is because the Spiritual Being has experienced many lives over many years so it does bring through some innate knowledge. However, that can be forgotten very quickly as the child grows.
Intuition is the Spiritual and Physical bodies communicating
What are Emotions?
Emotions are ‘energy in motion’ which are used to direct or guide the processes of the mind. They are a tool that the physical and spiritual bodies use to communicate with via the mind. Emotions are tools just like electricity is a tool, they are both energy in motion.
It is through the emotions that an understanding is created and that eventual understanding becomes Intuitive Knowledge or a ‘Knowing’. Intuition is ‘Deep Seated Knowing’. A Knowing that may have been developed over many, many lifetimes, through various physical incarnations and stored within the spirit.
Intuition is created by the physical body via the thought processes of the mind. It is permanently retained within the spiritual body and this can only be achieved by using emotional energy as the guiding tool.
Emotions are a tool of communication that we need to pay attention too in order of achieving the agendas of both the physical and spiritual bodies.
What is Intuition about?
The physical body is a three-dimensional body used in the physical world to experience the five senses of sight, sound, smell touch, and taste through various aspects and for a limited period of time. The physical human is a means of experience for the Spiritual Being who does not experience the 5 physical senses unless within a body.
The spiritual body is a body of energy that collects and experiences information through many physical bodies to expand its Intuitive Knowledge and is done so over an indefinite period of time. They are connected to one physical human at a time but are attached to everything and everyone. They are infinite and can be referred to as Universal Energy, Prana, God, and many other names. The mind is not a body, there is no mental body.
The mind processes information that is gathered from the physical body and blends it with the ideals from the spiritual body to create thought. The mind is therefore a process, not a body. It is there to process the Spiritual intuitive messages with the physical thoughts and beliefs.
In this Aura and Chakra digital scanning image, we can clearly see the physical body within the aura or spiritual body. The chakras are the spinning vortexes that give and receive energy from internal and external environments as a continuous flow.
It is through these chakra energy centre’s that we often receive our intuitive information.

Your Questions About Intuition
What is the difference between intuition and psychic ability?
Intuition is the natural communication between your spiritual and physical bodies — it’s something every human being has access to, whether they’re aware of it or not. Psychic ability is an extension of that same connection, developed and refined to receive and interpret information with greater clarity and depth. Think of intuition as the language we’re all born speaking, and psychic ability as becoming fluent in it. At Intuitive Nature, my work is rooted in helping you reconnect with and trust the intuitive language you already have.
Can everyone develop their intuition, or is it a gift some people are born with?
Everyone has intuition — it is part of being human. It is our Intuitive Nature. What varies from person to person is how clearly we can hear it, which is shaped by our experiences, our self-trust, and how much attention we’ve paid to it over time. Like any natural ability, it can be strengthened with awareness and practice. Some people have a more naturally developed sensitivity, but that doesn’t mean others can’t cultivate a deep and reliable connection with their own inner knowing.
How do I know if I’m receiving an intuitive message or just my own thoughts?
This is one of the most common questions I hear, and the honest answer is that learning to tell them apart takes practice. Intuition tends to be quiet, steady, and certain — it arrives without needing to convince you, and it tends to remain consistent when you sit with it. Your own thoughts, particularly when driven by fear or overthinking, are louder, more circular, and often come with a sense of urgency or doubt. A useful starting point: in a moment of stillness, notice what remains when the mental noise settles. That quieter signal is usually closer to intuition.
Why does my intuition feel stronger at some times than others?
Intuition is communication, and like any communication, it’s affected by the quality of the connection. Stress, exhaustion, emotional overwhelm, and prolonged self-doubt can all muffle the signal. Periods of rest, stillness, and emotional safety tend to make it clearer. If your intuition feels particularly quiet right now, it may simply be asking you to slow down and create space for it to be heard.
Your Questions About Working With Susan
What happens during an Intuitive Psychic Reading?
An Intuitive Psychic Reading is a supportive, conversational session in which I use my psychic sensitivity to tune into the energetic and emotional information around you. I work with whatever is most present for you — whether that’s a relationship, a decision, a life transition, or a general sense of feeling stuck or unclear. Sessions are warm, grounded, and practical. The aim is not to tell you what to do, but to help you access greater clarity about what your own intuition is already trying to communicate. Book an Intuitive Psychic Reading here.
What is a Flower Reading and how does it work?
A Flower Reading, or flowermancy, is an intuitive session in which you’re invited to respond to a selection of flower images, noticing which ones draw you, repel you, or stir something in you. The flowers you’re drawn to in any given moment reflect something alive in your emotional and spiritual landscape right now. From there, we explore what those responses are showing you. It could be about your current state, the questions you’re holding, and the direction your intuition is pointing. No prior knowledge of flowers or symbolism is needed. Learn more about Flower Readings or book a session here.
What are Flower Essences and are they safe?
Flower essences are gentle liquid preparations that carry the vibrational imprint of a flower rather than its physical plant material. They work on an energetic and emotional level, supporting the release of difficult emotional patterns such as grief, self-doubt, fear, anxiety. This helps create internal space for healing and growth. They are non-toxic, have no known interactions with medications, and are suitable for adults and children. They are a complement to, not a replacement for, professional medical or psychological care. The blend I create for you is tailored to where you are right now, and adjusted as you shift and grow.
How is life coaching at Intuitive Nature different from traditional coaching?
Traditional life coaching typically focuses on goals, strategies, and action planning. At Intuitive Nature, coaching is woven together with intuitive guidance — meaning we work not just on the practical steps forward, but on the deeper emotional and energetic patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Sessions draw on my background in psychic and intuitive work, flower essences, and personal development to support you as a whole person, not just the version of you that shows up with a to-do list. Find out more about coaching here.
Do I need to believe in psychic ability for a reading to be helpful?
No. Many clients come to me sceptical, curious, or simply open, and all of those are perfectly valid starting points. What matters most is a genuine willingness to reflect and engage honestly with what comes up in the session. The insights that emerge tend to resonate regardless of where you sit on the belief spectrum, because they are ultimately reflecting something that is true for you.
How do I know which service is right for me?
A good starting point is to ask yourself what you’re most needing right now. If you’re seeking clarity about a specific situation or life direction, an Intuitive Psychic Reading or Flower Reading is often the best first step. If you’re navigating a particular emotional pattern or looking for ongoing support through a transition, coaching combined with flower essences may be more suited to where you are. If you’re unsure, I offer a free 15-minute chat so we can talk through what would serve you best. Book a free chat here.
Can I have a session online, or does it need to be in person?
All sessions are available online, and many clients find that the comfort of their own home actually supports a deeper and more relaxed experience. Whether you’re based in Australia or overseas, you’re welcome to work with me remotely. In-person sessions on the Gold Coast are also available for those who prefer them. Check availability and book here.
