You feel something
But what exactly is it we are feeling? The conventional idea of an intuition or hunch is that it solves a problem—a eureka experience that might even change the course of history. On a grand scale, such a description may hold true. But on a more practical level, intuition has a place in our everyday experience. A frequent reader of searchwithin.org describes intuition as "A direct knowing of a person, place, thing, or situation that comes of its own accord. When experienced, it fills the mind and spirit with a certainty that only comes with a direct experience of events. It comes in a flash—as a vision or a voice—and if we're caught up in illusion, we'll miss it."
You've probably experienced something unusual in your own life but on a much smaller scale. Perhaps you have experienced a vague hunch about what to do or where to go at certain moments, not really understanding why but acting on it nonetheless. Often, such actions only become clear in retrospect. Or you might resonate with Sadony's description.

I recall once having the feeling I should take a different route than usual. It was through the woods instead off on the main highway. I was surprised to come upon a man sitting on a pail in the middle of the road in the freezing cold of winter. I stopped to ask him why he was there and he told me if I hadn’t stopped he would have freezed to death that night. It came to me because I was receptive to the radio waves of the universe and universal prayer waves. I just allowed myself time to do something different and went a different way, to describe it in simple terms.
