Intuition. What is it?

We are aware of only a small part of getting information, but our brain remembers everything. Is intuition just a work of our subconscious, experience of our subconscious? Or is it some kind of miracle?

    I appreciate your initiative here ...but perhaps some appropiate agreement on the designations of the words 1) conscious, 2) Sub-conscious and 3) Unconscious would be in order ? It can be argued that 99.9% of the HUman population is walking around in a state of Unconsciousness ( dream) state but by some strange agreement ...they call it "awake" and "conscious".
    In the mean time .just to add here......the current issue of Scientic American "Mind" has a 2 articles on assessing the Dream state for the purpose of Problem Solving and Creaivity. I have read that there is comprable reasurch do in your country. This would be a good way of expending on your topic here.
