Intuition is using your ‘gut feeling’ about possible courses of action.

Although people talk about it as if it were a magical ‘sense’, intuition is a combination of experience and your personal values. It is worth taking your intuition into account because it reflects your learning about life. It is, however, not always based on reality, only your perceptions, many of which may have started in childhood and may not be very mature as a result.

It is therefore worth examining your gut feeling closely, especially if you have a very strong feeling against a course of action, to see if you can work out why, and whether the feeling is justified.
