A people-skill most of our parents didn?t know or teach us is intuitively reading energy (the vibes around people). We?ve learned to draw conclusions from surface data: how nice someone seems, looks, education. But attraction goes deeper; to make it work for you other ingredients must be considered.

A people-skill most of our parents didn?t know or teach us is intuitively reading energy (the vibes around people). We?ve learned to draw conclusions from surface data: how nice someone seems, looks, education. But attraction goes deeper; to make it work for you other ingredients must be considered.
Here is a general guideline of body-based intuitions. Use this checklist at a first meeting, to troubleshoot problems if you're already involved, or to access opportunities. A signature energy always accompanies situations or people. Remember the Lil? Abner jinxed cartoon character who always had a black cloud hanging over his head? Not a vibe that bodes well for positive outcomes. Instead, you must learn to gravitate towards brightness, a positive intuition your body will affirm. When tuning into vibes take a few quiet moments to go into sensing mode, not intellectual analysis.
Look for these signs.
Positive Intuitions About Relationships or Situations
A feeling of comforting familiarity or brightness; you may sense you've known the person before, as with the experience of deja-vu.
You breathe easier, chest and shoulders are relaxed, gut is calm.
You find yourself leaning forward, not defensively crossing your arms or edging away to keep a distance your heart opens; you feel safe, peaceful, energized, expansive, or alive.
You?re at ease with a person?s touch whether a hand shake, hug, or during intimacy.
Negative Intuitions About Relationships or Situations
A sick feeling in the pit of your stomach or increased stomach acid which may prompt an unpalatable deja-vu.
Your skin starts crawling, you're jumpy, instinctively withdraw if touched
shoulder muscles are in knots, chest area or throat constricts; you notice aggravated aches or pains.
The hair on the back of your neck creepily stands on end.
A sense of malaise, darkness, pressure, agitation, or being drained
These signs provide a no-nonsense appraisal of your body?s comfort zone.
(The more positive intuitions the better--even one can be definitive--but nagging negatives often mean ?watch-out and go slow.?) They?ll lead you to friends, lovers, and work milieus with positive vibes. Plus, you?ll know when to cool it or exit in the face of blatant warnings. Listen to these signs and your choices in relationships will become smarter and more intuitively informed!
