Senses and Intuitions.
Wisdom is an ability score, and the primary ability of Clerics and Druids.
Wisdom affects your Animal Handling, Insight, Medicine, Perception, and Survival skills and improves spellcasting for Clerics, Druids, Monks and Rangers (better chance to hit enemies with spell attack rolls; increases the Difficulty Class of spells with Saving Throws).
