Kant held intellectual intuition possible only for God, who creates what it knows. Fichte and Schelling claimed it for the self’s knowledge of its own activity and of the Absolute. In older terms it corresponds to noēsis, the intellect’s direct vision in Plato and Plotinus, and to the intellectus of the medieval contemplatives.
Intellectual Intuition
A direct, non-sensory seeing of reality by the intellect, as opposed to knowing by reasoning.
