What is the source of intuition?

My intuition has never failed me. I have recognized a intuition after a event and I have ignored it and 'paid the price'. Is intuition an advanced human capacity that we have yet to harness? Is it a mental process based on retained experience and associated probabilities? Or, do we process an event and enlist our creative mind to imagine and convince ourselves we were aware prior? Your thoughts

    Jul 20 2012: Think that what we call intuition is the impression from something we recieve outside of us.
    These are forces that work on us and enter through our five ssences like : taste, smell, sight, touch,and hearing.
    So if we imagine these then we are living in a box wich has five openings where we recieve impressins,only these are corrupted because we are recievers and not the source.
    If we look at the Universe as the source where everything comes from we can consider this as perfect or the truth or the positive.
    We as recievers are the opposit to the Universe and we are corrupted or negative ,like in an electricity system where you have plus and minus.
    So I think that intuition is the connection between this 2 forces and it depends on how much we are equal to the source and for the time being this is our truth of the moment.
