Where is the line between intuition and

The line isn't in how loudly the feeling arrives — it's in what happens to it when you check it.

Three cards came out, all Major Arcana, which puts this on a structural level rather than a bad-week level.

Past — The Fool, reversed. The suspicion started as a leap: something read as a signal before there was ground under it. Not a mistake in itself, but the beginning was unexamined, and an unexamined beginning tends to keep generating evidence for itself.

Present — The High Priestess, upright. Right now your intuition is genuine and available; she sits just behind the veil, which means the signal is real but it does not narrate. The trap of this seat is not that the intuition is false — it's that it can't be argued with, and something that can't be argued with starts doing the work of proof.

Future — Justice, upright. Left as it is, this resolves toward weighing: cause and effect, evidence held up next to claim, the question of what actually happened versus what you supplied. Justice doesn't say the intuition was wrong. It says it eventually has to be weighed, and it sets the balance up itself.

So, conditionally: if the next few weeks include at least one past occasion where you held this same "I just know" about the same person or situation, and going back over what actually happened supports it — that's intuition, and Justice is simply the moment you check it and it holds. If you go back and can find no date, no occasion, and only the present feeling — that's the Fool's unexamined leap repeating, and the signal is coming from the wanting, not the knowing.

One thing to do in the next 48 hours: pick the single strongest "I already know this" you've had this month, and find one past instance of the same feeling about the same person — then go look at the actual record: the messages, the dates, what was actually said or not said. Write down what you find next to what you felt. That check is what the cards can't do for you, and Justice is a scale, not a feeling.
