ABSTRACT
In this chapter, the author constitutes a theoretical platform in order to introduce the difficult notion of empathy and, most important, to foster further research on intuition, ideally both theoretical and practical. Twelve categories of intuition exist in C. G. Jung's work. Four categories stem from the unconscious, four categories, or sub-categories, stem from the under-conscious, two categories stem from consciousness, and two categories stem from practice. From description to analysis, the author proposes four other categories, the fourfold scheme of the nature of intuition. Intuition is: a function leading to knowledge and the knowledge itself, a function leading to gnosis and gnosis itself, a relationship, and language. Intuition as a function and as a relationship constitutes Jung's single definition of intuition because the intuitive function is present in the unconscious, the under-conscious, consciousness, and in practice. Jung's definition of intuition is extremely concise and requires going through with a fine-toothed comb for years.
