intuitive personality types out there. So, what's

so special about this so-called INFJ intuition?

Alright, let’s get right into it starting with..

Number 1: It can feel different for every INFJ

Although all INFJ brain’s prefer to use intuition

as their dominant function when making decisions,

intuition differently. And aside from that,

and other people involved. Of course the feeling

of an intuitive hunch can be difficult to put

into words, but in a general sense intuition can

trigger both emotional, and physical sensations

that allow the INFJ brain to pay closer attention

to what they’re being called to focus on.

Sometimes it’s a feeling about energy, sometimes

it’s a flash of a future prediction, and other

times it can just be a physical chill, avoidance,

change in body temperature, and the list goes on..

whatsoever, and instead just a mental knowing.

In early INFJ years, their intuitive gifts can

seem otherworldly. The astonishing findings

a gift they need to share with the world,

but over time, INFJs learn that most intuitive

feelings are actually best kept to themselves.

Regardless of how familiar an INFJ is with

feeling misunderstood in the world, sharing their

intuitive findings is a sure way to make them seem

crazy, especially to logical personality types.

of open mindedness to understand intuition,

and they learn to not expect that from everyone.

Aside from the fact that intuitive feelings

can feel taboo and woo-woo to some people, INFJs

can also receive information from these hunches

that other people are not ready to see as

true. For example, if an INFJ intuitively

felt that their friend’s new partner was being

unfaithful, they may A) tell their friend and

risk jeopardizing being blamed for jumping to

conclusions, or B) keep it to themselves and

wait for it all to play out in the future. Of

course INFJs would rather choose to save their

friend from misery as soon as possible, but in

doing so can actually cause more harm than good.

Intuition requires the subconscious brain

to be working on overdrive. Even though everyone’s

intuitions work in the background of their minds,

for an INFJ it can take a serious amount of

exerted energy to keep their strong intuitions

running 24/7. This intuitive inner compass is

not only running when being paid attention too,

details of everything around them at all times,

subconsciously noting information that can

If that doesn’t sound exhausting enough, just

add the INFJ empathetic nature to the mix.

the whole intuitive process can be even more

draining. Empathy triggers the INFJ intuition

to be on high alert; such high alert that it can

be difficult for this introspective personality

type to pay attention to anything other than

what their intuition is pushing them to focus

on. This is why it’s so important for INFJs to

set boundaries around this energy, because it can

easily consume their entire focus involuntarily.

Number 4: It’s not as supernatural as it seems

but not everyone uses it. For that very reason,

the INFJ intuition can seem alienating, almost

as if they have these psychic powers that others

aren’t equipped with. While INFJs do have a one up

considering introverted intuition is their most

dominant function, the supernatural aspect of

their intuition is often blown out of proportion.

In fact, the reason an INFJs intuition is so

particularly strong compared to other personality

types is for the sole reason that they have a

certain set of introspective functions that allows

them to absorb crucial pieces of information that

others often overlook. Since INFJs are already

so familiar with analyzing their surroundings,

their subconscious minds are way ahead of them.

Subtle everyday things like body language,

tone of voice, autopilot behaviour and overall

energy is picked up by their extroverted sensing

while their introverted intuition makes sense of

it all behind the scenes. So, rather than INFJs

having some type of secret spiritual connection

to divine intuition, they’re more likely to

be just using their functions in the proper order.

like any special gift or talent, practise makes

perfect. Ironically, you can’t really control

having deep intuitive abilities, but you can

improve the precision and understanding of

intuitive findings over time. The INFJ intuition

is like a muscle that grows the more you use it,

likewise, it can wilt away when out of practise.

So.. how can this strong intuition be improved?

Well, the main steps any INFJ can take to

improve their intuition are quite simple,

but they do require patience. Learning to listen

and trust that random and repetitive voice in

their heads is the first step, and then putting

their intuitive understandings into practise

is the second step. Repeat step one and step 2

everyday, even for the seemingly simple things,

Practise makes perfect, but what exactly happens

when an INFJ’s intuition is strengthened to its

fullest capacity? Well, to put it simply, extreme

accuracy happens. In fact, especially when it

comes to an INFJ personality type, a well seasoned

intuition is what gives the INFJ their psychic

stereotype. The visions, callings, gut feelings,

flashes of insights, and whatever else the INFJ

experiences, become so well equipped to different

types of scenarios that they ultimately lead

the INFJ without the need of any type of factual

basis. They begin to experience flashes of future

projections, and then deja vu when these future

projections actually come into fruition. The first

few times this happens it can feel unsettlingly

unexplainable, but overtime, this gift becomes

second nature for an INFJ. Yet, when it comes

to outside witnesses of the INFJ’s intuitive

abilities, the bone-chilling accuracy will almost

always leave other’s speechless and skeptical.

It’s important to know that these insights

may not be immediate projections, sometimes

INFJs have to wait days or even years until they

see their insights play out in the real world.

Number 7: It can cause discord in relationships

When an INFJ chooses to use their intuition

it’s understandable that others may think the INFJ

is being reckless or rash. Intuitive feelings can

be extremely unpredictable to say the least, and

sometimes these hunches aren’t always in agreement

with what an INFJ’s heart and head has their

focus on. For example, if an INFJ is in a

romantic relationship where all the facts

make it seem like they’re a perfect match,

some INFJs wouldn’t hesitate to end it with no

factual explanation. Although it may seem unfair,

experienced intuitives know that they’re saving

both themselves and the other person a lot of

so they see it as the most ideal decision.

INFJ intuition does not work on demand, and it

does not have an off button. Insights don’t come

to an INFJ when they ask for them, and stop when

they’ve had enough. Instead, they come and go as

they please, with the INFJ only acting as the

messenger. It works in the background of the

and picks up on information that the INFJ

themselves may even overlook. And while it may

seem like a supernatural gift or a second brain,

this auto-pilot intuition can feel exhausting and

sometimes almost as if it is an unshakable burden

with no cure. Yet, once an INFJ sees all the

wonderful ways in which their powerful instincts

work, and how they can use their intuitive gifts

as their decision making compass - everything

starts to change. Afterall, intuition will only

ever move someone towards their higher good.

INFJs are, overall, slightly more ‘people

Number 6: They don’t mind accepting fault

One amazing quality of the INFJ personality

type is that they would never push necessary

blame onto another if it was their doing.

Even if a mistake was made through an accumulative

effort, their self-reflection tendencies cause

them to deeply analyze where their short-comings

are apparent and how they could’ve probably

For example, if an INFJ was in charge of ordering

catering for their workplace meeting, and

they were told that due to allergies, 3 people

require a gluten-free alternative, the INFJ

would make it a point to mention the importance

Yet, when the food arrived the following day,

and there was no gluten-free alternative provided,

One key behavior of a notably people-pleasing

person is being quick to agree with others,

even if they believe the opposite to be true.

For the INFJ, this act seems relatable to

some degree, yet it’s not for the reasons

not uncommon for some of these opinions to

Due to their deep analyses and open-minded

nature, they can see things from all angles,

and can easily accept 2 competing beliefs

This alone can be unfathomable and even unbelievable

foundation to feel at ease with certain topics.

behavior people probably write it off to be.
