it's you conscience... it's your natural reaction to events or happenings. I think it comes from your morals... what you have been taught as to what is right or wrong... what you have come to learn throughout your life to be right/wrong.
It's usually right too, so follow it!!

I don't think it just comes from your morals somehow. You could say it's God- whatever that is- but I suppose I more think of it as the quiet voice that is loving towards you.
For example I have had to choose where I want to spend the next 3 years at university recently. I had the choice of a very high ranking university and another not-so-good university. ( in terms of league tables). When I visited the average one I had a really good feeling about it. When I visited the top one I had no feeling about it.
When it came to making my decision I am very perfectionist and didn't know what to choose. I ended up being drawn to the top-ranking uni coz it had a good course and was well-known....
Now I know I should have listened to my gut because I immensely regret my decision. I am really not looking forward to going to uni now and actually it is more important to be happy in your surroundings than to choose somewhere on academic grounds. My gut feeling told me where I'd feel happy and that this was important but I ignored it. Lesson learnt? I'm sure in the future I'll still be tempted to think I know best against my gut feeling.

its so funny you asked this question i was just thinking to myself today about were that phrase comes from . i just recently found out my best mate is moving to other side of country to be with my ex gf of like 5 years . and at first i was pissed for a couple days but then quickly got over it ( as in, well shes his problem now and will most likely f*** him over like she did me.) in fact im secretly giggling to myself about it haha sucked in you dont know what your in for. so in my head im like TOTALLY cool with it, in fact he is coming round for a beer tonight but deep down inside my stomach i have this kind of slight pain like, and for some reason i think it might have something to do with that wierd hey?

they derive from past experiences coming into play to provide a possible scenario for a current happening.

From our mind.
The senses trasmit information to common sense, common sense to understanding, understanding to imagination, imagination to memory, memory to mind, mind decides to keep in memory as a worthy feeling, idea, concept...or to discard.
