And Step 3 is a great achievement. From there, you just have to start trusting and taking actions based on your intuition. We can spend hours channeling intuitive messages (with or without dowsing), but if that is all we do, we are stuck. And as you pointed out, that is when the ego steps in and gives you second thoughts to keep you where you are. To change this situation, you need to get unstuck, which takes courage. You can start small, however. So many people wait until huge life change pushes them to use intuition. They want their intuition to tell them which job offer to take, or if they should marry the person they've been dating, etc. That is like wanting to run a full marathon right away. You may have the ability to run, and with proper training and practice, you may indeed be able to run a marathon, but ... you do need practice. So start acting on your intuition. Use your intuition about something small like what you want to do this weekend. Then see how it goes, and maybe journal it. This gives feedback to your intuitive process, and sharpen the intuition. Hope this helps :) Hi Jasper,

Great interview, Ariel and Akemi! I have been working on improving my intuition since some time now. I feel I´m mostly at step 3 (Recognizing intuition as intuition)now. Sometimes it works very well, but more often I get a immediate claircognition upon a question, but then the ego screws it up, by trying to rationalize etc. :D What would you recommend me to do, to go further in developing my intuition besides dowsing? Bless! Hey!

It's a way to bring the intuitive messages to the conscious level. You can google it to see the youtube video clip -- seeing is probably easier to understand.

Dowsing is great because it gives clear yes or no answer -- provided I form the question properly. I think it can be a great tool in developing intuition. I often use it to support / verify what I get intuitively. Christopher,

I like how you structured it with categories, in an order that made the Q&A flow logically and intuitively. Great answers, Akemi. They all resonated with what I know while giving me a more complete understanding of the topic. I'm not sure what else I can ask about the topic of intuition. It seems that all the bases were covered! A personal question: do you dowse for the sake of intuiton? And if so, what does it do for you? Christopher Great questions, Ariel, and great interview.
