Show me how to: Improve my intuition

Luis Suárez is the principal psychic reader at Nob Hill Psychics and Healers. He sat down with the Daily Lobo to explain how to improve intuition. He said such skills can even be useful in the professional world.

DL: How did you get into reading?

Luis Suárez: I found myself in 2000 trying to answer questions about me and about life. I got into all these things — meditation, energetic healings; I got into this direction, I started studying astrology, tarot, fundamentally to try to understand me. Finally, in the year 2006, I jumped into doing it for the public.

DL: How does this help people? What can we learn?

LS: It helps people to figure out what they’re not wanting to see, to bring it out into their forefront, to help themselves understand some things about themselves and about how life really works. Things that are outside of the domain of what they’ve taught us in our homes and schooling systems. If we just use information that’s been given in those environments, sometimes we find it very puzzling to understand what the hell is happening and why it is I’m reacting to things this way or that way. I try to give people insight and tools that they can actually develop themselves so they can understand and connect with their own sense of direction in life.

DL: What kind of information does a psychic reading or tarot cards provide?

LS: The cards try to give perspective on what’s really happening (in a person’s life) … they are talking about your reality right now.

DL: You see your role as a guide to helping people figure out things for themselves?

LS: A guide and a facilitator to assist you to actually hone into your own power to really understand what you need to understand … because a large part of the information resides outside of the domain of what’s visible. You need to go into the domain of what’s not visible. In the same way that we connect (with distant family members through intuition) we can connect to whatever’s around us and at least get a feel. Most of the people that are intuitive … typically they feel. People (that are psychic) have exploited a talent that’s embedded in every human being and basically they’re using it for themselves first, because if you don’t know how to use it for yourself, how could you help others? Then you try to hone in and help other people to get that kind of clarity.

DL: How would you recommend people go about improving their intuition?

LS: As simple as experimenting with something that brings them into the intuitive domain. It could be as simple as throwing coins, ‘yes’ or ‘no’? More interestingly, if you ask meaningful questions, the answers, ‘yes’ or ‘no,’ that will come, will be the appropriate answers most of the time. Many people have experimented with a simple thing like that. There are many ways of developing intuition. If you’re going to become a lawyer … let’s say you’re practicing law … the first thing you need to have your intuition working is when you have that client in front of you, and you need to figure out if this client … is he going to come with me through all the things we’re going to have to go through and is still going to be a good solid defender of this cause? How are you doing to answer that any other way if it’s not intuition?
