A Deeper Look Into Manifestation

Today, being the Lions Gate Portal, is a huge day for manifestation. I figured this would be a great time to go into a deeper understanding of what manifestation really is. 

Manifestation has been a big buzzword over the last few years. Many believe if they think it, it will happen. Some know that they need to feel the energy of it already happening for it to manifest in their life and some, who are invested into the law of attraction, believe positive thoughts generate positive outcomes. And yes, there are aspects of truth to these beliefs but I am here to take you deeper.

To understand how manifestation really works, we have to consider the energetics of it, which is best articulated through a real life situation. Let's say there is this woman, let's call her Sarah. Sarah is really wanting to attract the perfect man. She does all the practices, visualizes him, feels like she already has attracted him, has a positive mindset about her finding the guy but for some reason, she keeps attracting assholes. These men don't value her, they use her and they can't show up for her the way that she is wanting. She is wondering how she always finds herself in these same situations.

So what is really happening? Energy attracts like energy. Not convincing yourself mentally of something energy, but the deeper energy of what is really playing out in your life. In this scenario, even though Sarah was mentally trying to "believe" and "convince" herself that she will attract her perfect guy, there is a wounded part of Sarah who truly believes that that is all she deserves. Who feels like she is not valuable, who constantly needs to prove her worth, and who doesn't feel worth showing up for reflected in the fact that she doesn't show up for or value herself. These programs, or energies, then attract people to her that will reflect that back to her. This is how we create our reality. We will continue to be in the same situations until we have literally grown out of them. Until we have transformed the energy that is keeping us stuck in these cycles. 

Lets stay with our same example. Sarah, getting fed up with the cycles of assholes has a realization. She realizes that nothing is actually going to change unless she does some work on herself. She spends the next year really going in and doing the inner work. She brings awareness to all these programs/energies/emotions/wounding, she spends time honoring them and truly healing them at an energetic level until they are not there anymore. 

She then starts dating, and as she is dating she feels the lowness of the men who are using her, the men who don't value her because she has elevated higher and she has enough self worth that she either sets a boundary or she moves on to the next. She is not sourcing her worth from these men anymore and as she is not accepting the crumbs, she is able to bring in the perfect man.

I am going to take you even deeper here so really pay attention. In this scenario, every single guy she met was the perfect man. Because without them, she would have never been shown those parts of herself that needed healing. The parts of her that were triggered by these men. She would have never realized that she was sourcing her worth and her value from these men. She would have never learned how to become that for herself. She is not able to walk through life knowing her worth, seeing her value which are attributes she can take into every single aspect of her life. Not only does she have the perfect man now, but she now quit the job that was taking advantage of her and has a more purposeful, aligned career with a team of people who value her work. You see how just looking at the surface, at the physical, is such a narrow perspective and never addresses the real issue, hence, perpetuates the suffering. 

This is why we end up in cycles. We are attracting or manifesting what it is that we are. The energy that we carry within us. Sometimes we attract certain people, sometimes we attract certain situations, sometimes these wounded energies manifest as physical ailments all with the same intention. When you go your whole life ignoring these wounds, your soul at some point needs to punch you in the face and say HERE! LOOK! PAY ATTENTION! What do you need to heal to become more aligned with me?

We will stay in these same cycles until we grow out of them because what we do, say, feel and think is all coming from the same energy. And if we spend our lives doing, thinking, saying and feeling the same things over and over and not changing the energy, we find ourselves in the same shit, just a different day. 

Once you address what energies/wounds that are the underlying cause to what you are experiencing, then using the affirmations or positive thinking can be very powerful. Though remember, energy does not lie, so you can't fake it.

I am going to take you just one step deeper. Another aspect of this is understanding that everytime Sarah would stay in these cycles, choosing to abandon herself, choosing powerlessness and accepting the crumbs, this would perpetuate the same unconscious behaviors in these guys she was dating. When they would treat her the way they would, she would allow it, she would get small, she would indirectly be saying "its okay that you treat me this way, this is normal". Thus, taking away the potential opportunity for these men to see how they have really been showing up and the opportunity to see what it is within themselves that they need to heal. Whether or not they decide to do the work and heal is irrelevant. The point is, when you allow your wounding to control your life, you prevent others from seeing how they are really showing up. 

Another example is Molly. Molly has this deep fear of abandonment and is trying to attract someone who won't leave her. She has developed an anxious attachment style and just can't seem to keep men around. Instead of playing out the scenario, I'm going to let you sit with this one and try to see what's really happening here. 

Not every situation is the same obviously but these two examples are fairly common. This is a topic I could talk for hours on. I recommend you read through this blog just one more time because some of this may be hard to comprehend. And some of you may not fully understand this and that is perfectly okay.  But for those of you who do, drop in, ask yourself, what is the energy behind this? Where is this coming from? What do I keep attracting and why? And do the real work. And with that, you will begin to manifest from your soul, and not your wounding.

With Love,
