Why You Should Consider Developing Your Outuition
If you're reading this, I'm sure you're familiar with the concept of intuition, but have you ever thought about seeing from more than a singular point of view when using yours? I've realised that there simply isn't a word to describe the concept, but we need one, and so, I give you "outuition".
While intuition is a quiet voice that comes from within, reaching us as feelings, images, or sometimes just a "knowing" that we can grasp once the fog of our day to day preoccupations is cleared through meditative activity or quiet contemplation, outuition is taking that quiet awareness to a different place.
Instead of waiting for that inner voice, once the"fog" clears, shift your awareness outside of yourself. A good exercise to accomplish this is to imagine your thoughts taking place in something you feel in tune with. It may be a tree, a crystal, or any object, really. Wait for those feelings and images to come.
Taken further, you can do the same with a place,a pet, a person, a situation,or if you're feeling really ambitious and cosmic, even the Universe. (Hello, Akashic Records, if you prefer that modern term ). I remember trying to explain this concept, first to myself and then to others, as a child. I called it the Library Of The Universe. Once you learn to "enter" and "read", you've got endless potential to reach, learn, and understand. I have seen self appointed experts try to complicate this with systems and fancy names, but it is such a simple thing, really. All you need is a pure intent, an open yet discerning mind, and a bit of patience.
I am not going to try to define outuition further, because I'd rather let you who read this create your own unique concept, building on this basic framework, than just consider and possibly adopt my personal understanding of it.
Outuition is wonderful. It can help you to understand and empathise with others. It can even help you to gain a more objective view on personal matters.
Between intuition and outuition, you will discover truths as only you can know them.
