You know that tingling feeling you get in your stomach or that voice you hear in your head just before an important decision or event? That’s usually your intuition speaking, and in many cases, it tends to lead folks in the right direction.

The problem is that over time, people have stopped paying attention to their gut feelings, and instead tried to follow the “logical” path. Hopefully these true stories will convince you that there’s something truly magical behind your intuition, and that it can be a powerful protector.

My late partner suffered 7 cancers in her lifetime, all of which ended going into remission , but the one she feared the most was breast cancer. Very fortunately, she did not suffer from that cancer.

    A dog trainer I knew had a Doberman and one night when the dog was on the front seat in her car at a stop, a guy came up and yanked the passenger door open. The Doberman rose up with every tooth showing and the guy slammed the door shut and took off. Probably never did that again.

    'A sense of impending doom' is a rare but very real symptom of a lot of stuff like this- heart attacks and strokes are where you see it most often, but blood clots can cause it. The body sometimes just knows, but can't communicate whats wrong so you just get this massive feeling of NOPE.

    A friend of mine owned/ran a pub in London back in the 1980s/1990s. He was always a very good judge of character, and was able to spot a potential troublemaker very quickly. He politely but firmly would ask that customer to leave. On one occasion, a very obnoxious customer, who had been behaving very inappropriate with the other patrons, particularly the ladies, was asked to leave. About a half an hour later, my friend just felt something strange just as the pub doors opened. As he looked up, he noticed this man had a crossbow which he fired, but my friend was just about quick enough to duck down behind the bar, and the bolt hit the wall behind the bar. The man ran off but was eventually caught by the police, convicted and sentenced to 8 years in prison.
