Intuition and the Creative Force

Intuition and creativity are a bit like the chicken and egg story - which came first?

Creativity creates the mood, scene, state in which to access intuition.

Intuition on the other hand, leads to creativity.

They really do work hand in hand... and like the yin/yang symbol, I believe they are magnetic forces that propel each other - pushing and pulling, drawing in and sending out.

Authenticity, truth and what's real are the result. However both intuition and creativity require risk, and that's where life gets interesting.  We live in an age where the pain not to risk is greater than the pain to leap. At least that's been my experience. We're all going through this together. Time to let it be what it is; not sugar coat it, nor ignore the simplicity of it - the beauty, wonder and awe of the intuitive, creative force at work. It's all in the little things, because it's those little things that give life meaning.

I am so grateful for the opportunity, privilege and experience of living in this element of creation/intuition in action. I am grateful for the courage to keep on risking. Some days it comes easier than others, but it is a daily ingredient nonetheless, up there with faith and follow-through.
