Impressions can be received through visual images, words, thoughts, or physical sensations about the object, or through a combination of these. Insights can also come from the vibrations in a particular location or setting. Sometimes the intuition we receive relates to a time other than the present.
Precognition is the ability to know about something before it actually occurs.
Retrocognition is the ability to know details about something that has taken place in the past without having been told or having read about it. Past-life memories are an example of retrocognition. As with the different types of information experienced by individuals, confirmations of intuition come to us in a variety of ways. Many people, especially those whose intuitive strength is through clairsentience, experience physical sensations that are harbingers of truth. If the impressions are of a warning nature, the physical indicators might include restlessness, physical pain, or discomfort in the stomach.
