No it's feeling

Intuition is "big-picture" thinking -- it's basically when your brain takes a bunch of puzzle pieces, puts them together, and then fills in the gaps where there were no pieces.
So you don't really "think" through intuition, instead you "leap the gap" because you see the solution all at once, as one big picture.
This is rather like Einstein's theory of relativity. First he saw the limited evidence and got the "big picture" that fit around that evidence.
It was only afterwards that he did all the actual math and "proofs" that he needed to justify his intution as to his solution.
It's the same sort of sense by which a wife would realize her husband was cheating on her, or one might realize a certain stock will rise/fall, or one hires someone for a job position.
(It's a bunch of random clues that suddenly "snap" into focus as one complete picture, even if pieces are still missing.)

Intuition has little to do with conscious thinking.It is the subconscious areas of the mind which are concerned with intuition.Dreams and feelings are involved rather than deliberation.To discuss it is to miss the point,since intuition is instinctive rather than rationalised thought.

Intuition is when you feel strongly about something is going to happen & it happens.
