Is there an expression similar to the English "gut feeling" in Chinese? Is there a metaphor or idiom that has a similar meaning to "gut feeling", as a metaphor for "intuition" or "instinctive feeling", in Mandarin Chinese?
The word for intuition or gut feeling is usually just rendered:


  直觉


New Century English-Chinese also defines gut feeling:


  NOUN
  直觉(相对于基于事实的观点)
