Try not to take this the wrong way, but the sad truth of the matter is that it’s YOUR fault.

No one likes to be told that they did something wrong, but unless your life is “heaven on earth”, you stepped off track a time or two along the way, and you only have yourself to blame.

When you look around your life right now, the people and the circumstances that make up your existence are there because – directly or indirectly – YOU put them there.

As Esther Hicks says in the movie ‘The Secret’, we are all “magnificent creators” of our existence. The problem is that most of us don’t realize just how much power we actually have because the true methods that we use to create our existence cannot be seen or touched. However, that power is there, and it is creating your existence at this very moment, whether you understand it or not.

The power that we are talking about is the Law of Attraction, and we wield that power with the thoughts that we hold in our heads, and the feelings that result because of those thoughts.

The science behind the Law of Attraction reveals that when we experience emotion, we create a very specific vibration. This vibration has a certain frequency based on the type of emotion that is being experienced and it acts as a magnet, attracting similar vibrations. Hence the name: the Law of Attraction.

Here is the part where you come in as the Creator of your existence. All through your life you have been sending out these vibrations, and attracting similar vibrations back to you. If your life had always been filled with joy, love, confidence, and other similar emotions, then that is what your life would probably still be filled with.

On the other hand, all of us have had other experiences in life that weren’t that positive. Negative emotions such as sadness, fear, grief, frustration, shame, and anger are things that most of us have experienced, and most people have experienced them frequently throughout their lives.

So if positive vibrations attract positive circumstances, then by the letter of the Law, negative vibrations must also attract negative circumstances. This could be explained by the simple fact that you can’t have good without bad, black without white, up without down, etc.

Here is the best part, though. Every single moment in your life is a chance for you to start over again. It doesn’t matter how much negative energy you have created in the past due to the experiences that have been a part of your life up to this point.

You can make a conscious decision right now – at this very moment – to take control of these emotional vibrations and make the majority of them positive. It takes some work in the beginning because you will be used to having the same type of negative reactions to life that you have become accustomed to up to this point.

However, a simple decision to react in a positive way – to see the bright side – of any given situation will net you incredible results in the long run. You will instantly feel better just because you won’t have the negative reaction that you would normally have, but the real results go much further than that.

When you continually experience positive emotions over and over again, day in and day out, you will be creating more and more positive vibrations that will be attracting even more positive vibrations into your life.

This may come in the form of material goods, money, opportunities, relationships, or pretty much any other positive things that you would like to have in your life. It may also simply come as an increased level of happiness, confidence, or surety of purpose and direction.

There is no way to tell exactly what the Law of Attraction will deliver to you when you attract positive vibrations into your life, but no matter what form it takes, your reward will be a positive one.

You will enjoy these positive experiences, and you will also know one thing for a fact:

It will be YOUR fault!

If asked if you are you an “awakened” parent you would probably pause to consider what that actually means. What constitutes being an awakened parent? Many equate the term “awakened” with “eyes wide-opened” or being “aware”. In terms of parenting, to be awakened means to be conscious of what your role as a parent consists of…examining your role, determining if it is working to produce the results you intend, and finally, making necessary changes to achieve those goals.

Parenting is not an exact science. There are no “proven” parenting methods available. The obvious reason being there are no two children exactly alike. Human beings are unique.

There is however a common thread in parents.

When you ask people, “What do you feel has the greatest value in your life?” Some may say their home, some their stock portfolio, others their diamonds or their sports car.

When asked this question many automatically think in terms of material wealth. But if you ask if they’d be willing to trade the life of their child for those things, without exception, the answer would be a resounding NO! Our children are what we value most in the world.

We live in a society where parents have more resources to be better educated about how to raise their children than ever before. There’s an abundance of books available on how to produce children who are healthy, happy, and successful.

In fact, the market reflects that sales are at an all time high. Bookstores are overflowing with books covering every aspect of child rearing, including developmental stages, brain development, nutrition, healthy habits, and safety.

That being said, parents need to ask themselves the following questions:

Why in the last year have 84% of public schools reported incidents of crime to the police? Why has teen suicide had its highest increase in 15 years? Why then are anti-depressants prescribed for more than 52% of our children and teenagers? Why has illegal drug use become an unbeatable war, with over 1/3 of children in the U.S. using them? Why has “bullying” become the number one topic on the minds of millions of parents?

Parents are looking for help. Many parents are confused about how to deal with these problems. They are not certain which approach is the right one. They have tried everything to no avail and end up feeling guilty and question whether they are good parents.

First, parents must examine their parenting method and ask themselves some tough questions.

Does your parenting method match the struggles your children face? Are you equipped to deal with the subject of peer pressure, bullying, lying, drugs, alcohol, and sex to name a few? And the most important question, are you raising your children in a way that empowers them with the skills to successfully meet these types of challenges?

There has been a major shift in thinking in the last 10 years. Breakthroughs in science, medicine, and psychology have caused people to question traditional methods of thinking, believing and operating…and opened doors to new and alternative possibilities. U.S. health officials report that Americans spent $33.9 billion out-of-pocket on complementary and alternative medicine in 2007 alone.

Continuing education for health care professionals in the areas of both physical and mental health offer many courses in alternative approaches to medical care, including courses that incorporate the principles and power of the law of attraction.

These principles are also being taught in teacher’s workshops, in sabbatical programs for people in ministry, to parenting groups, and to the general public.

As a large part of that market, books on the law of attraction have received growing attention in recent years. Tremendously successful books like Think and Grow Rich, written by Napoleon Hill, 1937, The Magic of Believing, by Claude M. Bristol, 1948, and You Can Heal Your Life, by Louise Hay, 1984, brought attention to the principles of the law of attraction and popularized the concept that thoughts and beliefs impact your health, success, relationships, and create your reality.

But it was when Rhonda Byrne’s film entitled, The Secret, hit the market in 2006, and her book by the same title was released in 2007, that the term “The Law of Attraction” became a household word. It was featured on Larry King Live and Oprah and created quite a stir around the world. That same year, Esther and Jerry Hicks’ book, “The Law of Attraction”, which was published in 2006, catapulted to the New York Times bestseller list.

Many authors have had an impact in opening people’s minds to the incredible power of the law of attraction: Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra, Joe Vitale and other teachers featured in The Secret, as well as countless others…too many to name.

And now, people who are also parents have become “awakened” to the fact that these same principles, based on the law of attraction, when taught to their children will create a mindset that says they can do and become whatever they choose. Their children know they are worthy of all they desire, understand they have within them the power to choose what is positive, and that they are the creators of their lives.

With this mindset, children become confident, believe in themselves and enjoy a healthy self-esteem. They learn to be pro-active rather than re-active. Understanding the principles of the universal law of attraction and the miracles it promises and delivers removes the “victim” mentality and replaces it with one of responsibility and choice.

In this New Year, 2010, we as parents are blessed with the knowledge of the amazing power of the law of attraction and the enormous difference it makes in our lives. The real value lies in the fact that when integrated into our lives and our children’s lives it is successful for everyone. There are no age requirements, no pre-set criteria. It is a universal law. Those who choose be an “awakened parent” have the opportunity to give their children a gift that will insure their journey through life will be one of true inner happiness.

Your the secret revealed

By: David P Kennedy

Your the secret revealed. I will explain to you in this article the reason why I called my web site this.

First and foremost there is something that you have to understand. This is very important for you. You are first of all spirit. Re-read this until you get it. You are first of all spirit. You are creator. You are amazing all on your own. You create your life from the very things that you think about the most. I will talk more about these things latter on.

I will be discussing the secret law of attraction and will do my best to keep it simple and straight forward for everyone. I can say without hesitation threw my own personal experience that the law of attraction works every time provided that you follow the laws that were put into place when creation was thought out. These laws are unseen like the law of gravity is. Or the law of electricity. These laws work whether you believe in them or not. It does not matter if you are good or bad if you walk off a mountain top you will hit the bottom with a definite thud. They work period. No guessing about it.

SO why then is this not taught in schools at an early age? Well that’s an easy one yet hard to answer. Maybe the top 1% of the world that has about 96% of the worlds wealth doesn’t want the rest of us to know. We are taught that we are limited in resources so that we think we have to struggle through life without. The very truth is that there is more than enough for everyone at all times. For an example-before electricity was discovered (it’s always been here) there has always been enough. Now that we use it there is still enough. The amount there is has never changed.

As we expand our world everything expands with it. We are given the illusion that we have lack in the world. Well you can see it on the news cant you so it must be so? Well there is this thing called supply and demand right? If it looks like there is not enough of things the cost or worth of that increases for the ones who are buying and profits those who are selling. So for instance if the oil company’s want to gouge you and make more profits it would be in there interest to lead you to believe that there is a shortage in oil right? I think you get the picture here. If someone has an alterative say free energy system that benefits us all it would also be in there best interest to stop it somehow. I think though that it would be better for them to get involved with this new resource and help us all out. But what do I know…

 

The belief system that we all hold limits us to what we can’t do, or can’t have for that matter. What can we do about it we all ask ourselves. We can do plenty. It is very important to understand what I will say next please do yourself a favour and memorize it. You have heard it before but I want to really get this threw to you. Here it is-What you think about the most you attract to you. What you think about the most you attract to you…What you think about the most you attract to you. This is not a typo…I did repeat myself here. This is a key point and one that you must incorporate into your life. It is a key factor in manifesting or bringing to you all that you desire in life. I will explain and expand on this point a few times in this book. The Secret Law Of Attraction is real and it works. Change the way that you think and you will draw to you all the resources necessary to bring about all your desires.

Where do you begin? How do you change the way that you think and put the Law Of Attraction to work for you manifesting or creating the life that you want and deserve? What are the steps involved? I will address these important issues here. Like I said I will try to keep this to the point and easy to understand.

LOA Basics: To those who have seen the movie The Secret you know that in order to manifest things you must learn about the Law Of Attraction and how to put it in your life. It is said that its how you look at things is the way things look to you. If you just simply look at the things in your life that you want to change in a different way those things will change for you.

Your here because you are looking for answers…You already have them inside you. You just need to see them for yourself. I encourage you to just read without judging what is being spoken to you in these words on this page. Just let it Resonate Within you. The secret revealed is within you.

First of all you are spirit…You are a creator…you are in a physical world co-created by you. You are one with all and all with you. You create your world as you see it in your mind. Your subconscious mind is a problem solver and takes care of incredible amounts of things like..breathing, your heart rate, walking, talking the list is staggering. You don’t have to think about raising your fork to your mouth to eat your food it just happens without you constantly thinking about every detail. That’s real power you have inside you. I know your thinking borrrring already know this. Well if you truly think about it, it is incredible what you have inside of you.

The power that has made all of creation resides there. You just need to be reminded that it is the real you that has this power not your ego. I am so very grateful for this. Not having to think about every little detail I could never really get anything done. It just gets done without thinking in detail about it while I can concentrate on the things that I want to create.

So why tell me this?…Well when you ask for something that you want to create you can leave it up to this source energy to take care of it for you. You have to align your feelings with what you want to create in your life.

When something feels good you’re on the right track…when it doesn’t you’re not it’s that simple. You know the feelings you get…this doesn’t feel right..It doesn’t make me feel right etc.

Keeping all this in mind here is The Secret Law of attraction LOA-basics.

Start by having gratitude thankful for all you have right now. Even if you’re not where you want to be. Powerful words for you to use are as follows: (I have Said this in other articles) When you wake up say to yourself-what a wonderful day. I love life, I love people, I love creation. Creation will draw close to you by you showing appreciation to it. You must and I repeat must feel what you are saying. When you say I love life (Even if you don’t) Feel like you do. I mean really feel it deep inside of you. What a great world this is and I can create it the way I see it in my mind. When you go to bed at night do the same thing. What a great day this was. I loved it. When you change the way you look at things those things change the way they look to you.

When you say I love people and feel it deep inside almost right away people see you differently and they are drawn to you in a positive way. It starts from the very moment you ask and feel it inside you. You also can feel how good it feels and know you’re on the right track. How you feel inside good or bad are only indicators for if your one the right path for what you want. The Secret is a good starting point. The Law Of Attraction once understood will manifest your desires into reality.

You will notice a great change in your life just by this simple method of using the law of attraction. Just the basics. Now you can ask for bigger and better things…Wealth, Health, Happiness, Your soul mate anything. It works the same for small things as for the big things.

What you think, and how you feel and what manifests always matches every single time. (Abraham-Hicks) When you change the way you feel and go with the flow instead of against the universe WOW…You are awesome…

I encourage you to try this exercise for a few weeks and write me and tell me how it has changed the way you think about life and how you influence it.

So Gratitude ties into Loa-Basics.

Gratitude:

Nothing new can come into your life unless you open yourself up for being grateful for all that you have right now. This is an amazing powerful magnetic force.

True forgiveness is being able to say and mean thank you for giving me that experience.

Being grateful for everything is a perfect way to express to the universal mind what a Wonderful creation you are a part of. It sets the stage for being in-line with the creative force. In harmony with the life force that surrounds us all.

Have you ever noticed that when you show appreciation to others for the things they do for you, you will always get a better response from them? People want to help each other, give to each other. It’s all in how you treat others. What goes around comes around… You get back what you put out…Sound familiar? These are true statements.

All a part of the unseen laws that govern us all alike.

In the book The Science of getting rich (Page 27) Wallace Wattles wrote: “First you believe that there is one Intelligent Substance, from which all things proceed; second, you believe that this Substance gives you everything you desire; and third, you relate yourself to it by a feeling of deep and profound gratitude.”

Being thankful for creation and all within it draws you to the very source that brought it all into being. This is an important step that The Secret and the Law of Attraction holds and helps you manifest into your life the abundance that you seek.

Always look at the positive side of things and the positive will become a part of your life. You are special just the way you are. You can create your life the way you want it to be. Only you can do it.

When you incorporate the LOA Basics and Gratitude the next step would be the 3 magic steps I call: Ask, Believe, Recieve.

 

Ask, Believe, Recieve:

What do you want in life? A new car? A new home? New Job? Lots of Money?

What if there was a way to have it all…You can if you follow a certain way. What if it were just a matter of changing the way you think.

Have you ever noticed that there are people who have it all and you wonder why them and not you? It does not matter your circumstances or your situation you can take charge of your life now just by changing the way you think. I’m sure you have known someone who always complains about their health? There always sick right? The truth is… you are what you think.

The hit movie “The Secret” started putting things together for me and has led me to studies into many areas. I found that the very basic knowledge of life that we all have all but deleted for our lives have always been right here all along.

One of the scientific areas of studies I now find interesting is Quantum Physics. They have discovered that all things seen and unseen comes from one source only. I like to call it “Thought Energy “It states that nothing can come into being without thought entering the equation.

When you look at anything close enough it comes down to energy. As a result we are all connected to all. We are creators. We create our world and our lives. What you think about the most you bring or attract to you. Thus called the Law Of Attraction a part of “The Secret”

There are 3 main areas that start the process. Ask Believe Receive. 3 Key words that can change your life for the better. The universe does not distinguish between small or big. So whatever you ask for can be anything provided that all may benefit from it.

Here are the basics…

 

Step 1 Ask: You must ask from the heart in Ernest. You must always remain positive on it. Negative thoughts can prevent it from coming into being. Whether big or small you can create it in your life.

 

Step 2 Believe: Clear your mind of all negative barriers. Do not let negative thoughts run you. Learn to see what you are thinking about and when the negative thoughts enter see it for what it is. The secret here is certainty. The law of attraction is a science. See what you want in your mind and own it. Be certain it is yours, feel it. Feeling it leads to a stronger belief.

When you see what is negative and destructive to you it cannot stay with you. You have to see it for the negative that it is and catch it creeping up on you. You can stop it in your life. Dead in its tracks. It cannot be a part of you if you see it for what it is. After a while it will leave you.

Replace it with positive thoughts. Affirmations, Meditation, Mind power, visualizations are great tools. Just believe that what you asked for is real and is yours for the taking. Live your life don`t let life live you.

Close your eyes from time to time and live what you asked for and believe that is real for you. You can fool your mind into believing it is real and you mind will make it so. It is connected to the all.

 

Step 3 Receive: Anticipate receiving what you asked for. It is real and wants to be a part of you. When you see it coming to you accept it for it is your birthright. You run your life.

Enjoy and be grateful for what you bring or manifest into your life. Remember to pay it forward. When you achieve what you set out to teach others to do the same. This is the basics on how to create your world. Your new way of thinking and being. Only you can make it happen. It works for everyone every time, if you change the way you think.

I want you all to have much success in your lives. Give it a try what have you got to lose…. Ask Believe Receive, The Secret, law of Attraction…

 

 

What is your belief-system and how does it tie into the law of attraction? Belief-System:

I find it amazing that today in this world we live in we can believe so much about the very things we cannot see, feel, taste etc. There is much more around us that we must become aware of or conscious about. In your belief system you know that certain things exist even if you can’t see them or know how they work. Examples of this? Well how about this… you can watch T.V. and not see the frequencies flying through the air…you probably don’t know how that all works but just because you can’t see it your belief system tells you it’s real and it works. Your cell phone does the same thing. Microwave same thing.

If you told people 100 to 200 years ago about these inventions they would not believe you. It would not be a part of the collective thought. Why is it so hard to understand that we can tune into a frequency in our creative resource (Our thoughts) and create or make things. We do it all the time and all at a greater rate than ever before. We create the things that we see every day. From the artist to the architect, thoughts first, followed by things.

Why is this not taught in the mainstream of life? Education for example? It is not my place here to answer that one, just to bring to light what you can do as an individual.

So then why would it not make sense that we can create our life the way we want it to be? We can. If you change your belief-system and eliminate your doubts or negative thoughts you can create the world you want and the life you deserve.

The world is at the very edge of great change. It is closer than you may think. You can doubt this fact all you want but that will not change the fact. The collective frequencies are changing and so is the created world we live in.

As Mike Dooley says thoughts become things. They really do. You just have to have a strong belief system.

Just because you can’t see it doesn’t make it less real. The truth is it is more real than you could ever realize.

When you apply the Law of attraction and add your belief-system in a positive way and truly believe in what you ask for your on your way to manifesting your life into reality.

I Hope this has helped you to better understand who you really are and what you are capable of being. Remember always when it comes to the secret your the secret revealed

Ever feel like you are stuck going round and round on a race track being driven by obligations, responsibilities and promises to keep? And the Holidays seem to be looming ahead in a dreadful, foreboding way rather than the happy, joyous events that you wish they would be? If you feel like you’re running on empty emotionally, maybe now would be a good time to break away from the pack, stop in your tracks and check your “Thank Tank,” because gratitude is the fuel that ignites your spirit and sparks your soul to create something different–to create your heart’s desires.

All analogies and puns aside, it’s in present moments that we think clearly, that we appreciate freely and that we really see, with an almost childlike perception, our surroundings, our circumstances, our life. The object here is to improve the way you feel, even if that improvement is ever so slight. For instance, if you are stuck in a traffic jam, notice those abbreviated vanity license plates around you and try to decipher what they mean. Make a game of it. When you’ve broken the code, appreciate how quickly you did it or how clever the author of the plate was. Or cast a glace around your vehicle and thank it for providing you with safe and comfortable transportation. If nothing else, you can always be grateful that you are out of the cold and will soon be on your way.

Changing your mood from frustration or irritation to appreciation and thankfulness feels better and increases your vibration–the way you communicate your desires to the Universe. Quoting Abraham (through the wonderful works of Esther and Jerry Hicks), the “Universal” Law of Attraction says that “like attracts like,” so by changing your focus, and more important, the way you feel, you will literally be magnetizing better things into your life (like missing traffic jams!). Test this law for yourself. We’ve all had those days when you would swear that a little black cloud was hanging over your head and everything that could go wrong seemed to be going wrong. You can “right” yourself simply by taking your attention off of what is and filling a moment–a present moment–with gratitude and appreciation for what you have. Even if it’s the smallest, most insignificant thing that you can come up with, focus on that and radiate love and appreciation for it. Then do it again for another moment, and another, and another, and soon your cloudy outlook will have a new, improved forecast.

But why not start or end every day with a full Thank Tank? Every morning when you wake up or every night before you fall asleep, acknowledge that for which you are grateful. As you put your attention on the people, circumstances or things that you appreciate, really feel how happy and blessed you are to have them in your life and open your heart to receiving more. Gratitude is the key that unlocks your ability to receive. The more grateful you feel for what you have, the sooner you will receive more of what your heart desires.

As we, as a nation, turn our attention to gratitude–with turkey and all the trimmings–reaffirm to yourself your commitment to Giving Thanks each and every day of the year.

And since you’re getting off that race track, maybe you should check your oil, too!

After the excitement of last week with many relevant aspects and transits we will start into a new round of adjusting and reorienting ourselves with Sun in Libra. This is the autumnal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere and the beginning of spring below the equator. Days are getting shorter and the general energy is turning more inwards. We will discuss the planetary color for September 21 and 22, 2009. This discussion of the planets and their dynamics is also applicable whenever you have those planetary constellations in your own, personal chart.

The equinox is one of the pivotal points of the year and being in Libra it asks us for choices in the direction we want to take for the rest of the year. Let us have a look at the qualities of Libra and what it brings to the table for us.

Libra: The Judge and Harmonizer

The ruling planet of Libra is the goddess Venus and the time of the year for the Sun in Libra is September 23 to October 22. Libra is attributed to the element air and the masculine gender. With that we have a sign which is mentally oriented and that shows in how the Libra will approach life and love.

The symbol for Libra, a scale, indicates Libra’s strong need for balance. Libras are very oriented toward other people and skillfully tuned into their needs and emotions. Their preference in relationships is for harmony and love—they are peacemakers. Others are drawn to them for their sociable charm. Putting together those qualities, they make wonderful psychologists and mediators, as well as friends and partners. But because they have the ability to see both sides of things, it can be very difficult for them to make decisions. It would be good for them to remember that sometimes it is better to just decide on a less then ideal choice and get moving instead of staying on the fence of indecision.

Their love of harmony and balance draws them to beauty in the arts and wherever else they can indulge their aesthetic sense. Libras in general are good with people and they are artistically inclined. These are the two areas they excel in.

Moon in Scorpio
The Moon position in Scorpio is one of the most intense ones of the year. It is about getting real, knowing who you are including the areas of shadow and denial. The gift of this Moon is to be really honest with oneself. Only with that kind of honesty we will be able to move forward with clarity and purpose. Scorpio people are always reinventing themselves and are not allowed to stay in one place or indecision for very long. They are asked to allow deep transformation to happen, to be the Phoenix out of Ashes and soar out of the burning fire where the old structures of the self are burned and deeply transformed.

In the two and a half days the Moon is in one sign every month, we get a taste of the potential and challenges the signs are representing. If we know what astrological Moon position is active we have the ability to consciously choose how we want to use it to our advantage and we can tell how it will fit in with the rest of our personal horoscope. I see the Moon position as an emotional spot light helping to bring awareness into the inner world of feelings.

Moon in Scorpio and Sun in Libra

The combination of Moon in Scorpio with Sun in Libra is putting us to the test. We have to develop a willingness to let go, get ready for profound changes and make good decisions. I know that is not the easiest task and we have been asked to adjust to changes in our society and tightening the belt for some time now. We constantly have to monitor our thoughts and fears in order to stay in balance. And this is exactly what we need to do now with total clarity and determination. Scorpio is not a timid one and will help the Libra energies to a good, honest and more profound start into the rest of the year.

Suggestion

As usual you might sit with a cup of tea and your journal for your inquiry. I always say that because it creates a little ritual for your inner connection with your higher self. This is a good time for you to take inventory in your relationships and ask yourself how you are able to deal with changes and challenges to the status quo. Are you growing in your relationship? How are your communication skills? Is there an area with your partner which needs to be addressed with honesty without attacking your loved one? How is your balance between intimacy and autonomy? Would you like to be more autonomous and free or are you yearning for a deepening of your love?

In relationships we are asked to learn tolerance and respect for the differences we have. Our intimate relationship is usually the most profound area of spiritual teachings to help us grow out of our childhood traumas and conditioning. In relationships we are the most vulnerable and unconsciously reactive to outer stimulus. We usually are very emotional, tend to be righteous and truly think if just the other person would change in that and that way, we would be happy.

Of course we can not expect to change our partner — we can only learn to adjust our own expectation to a level of a more harmonic togetherness. Most struggle and fights in relationships are our desperate trying to fix something in the outside in order to feel better inside. Has it ever worked for you? It never has for me!

All your power and freedom is inside of you and how you adjust your thoughts and feelings without the dependency on outer circumstances. That could mean that you keep focusing onto the parts of your partner you love and pull your attention away from the parts you are reacting to. Abraham Hicks, who is a wonderful teacher on the subject of Law of Attraction, puts it this way.

– By My Attention to Things, I Am Making Choices…
What people do not understand is that you do not choose something by looking at it and shouting Yes, I would like some of that! You make your choices by your attention to things. In this Universe that is based on attraction, when you look at an unwanted thing, your attention to it causes an activation of the Vibration within you, and then the Law of Attraction brings more like it into your experience. – Abraham- Hicks

Find an Anchor for the Quality you Want to Achieve in your Life

When I want to focus onto something I love about my husband I focus onto his love for our cat Angelito. Angelito came to us 8 days old and we bottle feed him around the clock. It was an amazing time to care for such a vulnerable being and was a big gift for both of us. Even if we both were his caregivers he bonded more deeply with my husband. His mother was dying at that time and he was in a very vulnerable place. The tiny kitten would sit on his chest, on his heart and they had that special sweetness and melting. The cat is now 2 years old and the first thing it does coming into the house, is running up to him and sit on his chest for a minute. I look at them having that bonding communion and it never fails to touch my heart. That quality of being one with each other and deeply loving for that moment in time has become my anchor for the love I desire to manifest deeper and deeper in my life and with my husband. I want to inspire you to put some thought to this in your own life. Find something to focus on and to direct your attention towards.

The Gem for the Day is the Herkimer Diamond

In Vedic and Western astrology using gemstones is recommended for pacifying difficult astrological constellations. The Herkimer Diamond is a stone for balance and will serve the general situation of intense Scorpio Moon energy and Libra needs. The Herkimer Diamond is one of the true birthstones of Libra. It is a wonderful ally for meditation and can also be made into jewelry.

– Found in Herkimer, New York, this is a double-terminated rock crystal with such clarity and brilliance that it was named after the most reflective and brilliant stone there is, the Diamond. A handful of Herkimer Diamonds are as dazzling as real Diamonds. The most common material on earth, silica, becomes a sparkling little gem in the Herkimer Diamond.  

This stone grows in small air pockets in the mother matrix rock material. It starts as a small seed crystal and grows outward from the center. Some collector’s pieces are displayed still embedded in a pocket of air in the mother matrix.

This stone is amazing in its beauty, clarity, and perfection. Unlike the Diamond, which must be cut and polished to bring out its beauty, the Herkimer Diamond is perfect in its natural state and requires no cutting or polishing at all. It is untouched by the human hand.

Balancing the Aura and Stabilizing Our Energy

The Herkimer Diamond has a very special place among the gems because of its superior qualities. It is worn most beneficially over the heart. Sitting on the heart chakra, which is the middle one of the seven, it balances the whole energetic system. Thus it is able to strengthen our auric field against all kinds of radiation, including electro smog and negative thought projections. We are constantly targeted by radiation in our daily lives, especially in urban areas. It is known that sitting in front of a computer for several hours can lower our white blood cell count, which inevitably impacts our health. The Herkimer Diamond in its perfection and balance between the negative and positive points can balance us and strengthen our own energy field.

This stone also strengthens our auric field against negative emotional or mental projections. I have made many Herkimer Diamond pendants for people who work in the healing professions to help them stabilize and treat their clients without picking up their imbalances. The more sensitive you are the more likely you are to pick up on disharmony in your outer field. The Herkimer Diamond is your ally in maintaining your own balance and strength.

Balancing the Brain

This stone also balances the right and left hemispheres of the brain, the creative and logical, the female and the male sides in us. Most of us tend toward one side or the other. The Herkimer Diamond balances us out in the middle between the two. The creative mind and the logical and scientific mind are enhanced by each other’s qualities: the creative mind benefits from greater focus and logic and the scientific mind draws on more creative and intuitive resources. The two hemispheres join forces, resulting in inventions and discoveries beyond the known.

Stimulates Creativity and Inspiration
The Herkimer Diamond’s brilliancy stimulates our inspiration and connection to higher truth and wisdom. Clarity of thought and a peaceful mind are a matter of balance.
The Herkimer Diamond can be worn very beneficially over your heart or as earrings close to the brain. For jewelry seek the clearest and most perfect crystals. For meditation or even under your pillow you may choose a larger crystal, which might not be quite as perfect as the smaller ones. The larger stones have inclusions and rainbows that make them very beautiful nonetheless. The Herkimer Diamond is a gift in its perfection and balancing qualities, a visual reminder of God’s perfect creation.

After the excitement of last week with many relevant aspects and transits we will start into a new round of adjusting and reorienting ourselves with Sun in Libra. This is the autumnal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere and the beginning of spring below the equator. Days are getting shorter and the general energy is turning more inwards. We will discuss the planetary color for September 21 and 22, 2009. This discussion of the planets and their dynamics is also applicable whenever you have those planetary constellations in your own, personal chart.

The equinox is one of the pivotal points of the year and being in Libra it asks us for choices in the direction we want to take for the rest of the year. Let us have a look at the qualities of Libra and what it brings to the table for us.

Libra: The Judge and Harmonizer

The ruling planet of Libra is the goddess Venus and the time of the year for the Sun in Libra is September 23 to October 22. Libra is attributed to the element air and the masculine gender. With that we have a sign which is mentally oriented and that shows in how the Libra will approach life and love.

The symbol for Libra, a scale, indicates Libra’s strong need for balance. Libras are very oriented toward other people and skillfully tuned into their needs and emotions. Their preference in relationships is for harmony and love—they are peacemakers. Others are drawn to them for their sociable charm. Putting together those qualities, they make wonderful psychologists and mediators, as well as friends and partners. But because they have the ability to see both sides of things, it can be very difficult for them to make decisions. It would be good for them to remember that sometimes it is better to just decide on a less then ideal choice and get moving instead of staying on the fence of indecision.

Their love of harmony and balance draws them to beauty in the arts and wherever else they can indulge their aesthetic sense. Libras in general are good with people and they are artistically inclined. These are the two areas they excel in.

Moon in Scorpio
The Moon position in Scorpio is one of the most intense ones of the year. It is about getting real, knowing who you are including the areas of shadow and denial. The gift of this Moon is to be really honest with oneself. Only with that kind of honesty we will be able to move forward with clarity and purpose. Scorpio people are always reinventing themselves and are not allowed to stay in one place or indecision for very long. They are asked to allow deep transformation to happen, to be the Phoenix out of Ashes and soar out of the burning fire where the old structures of the self are burned and deeply transformed.

In the two and a half days the Moon is in one sign every month, we get a taste of the potential and challenges the signs are representing. If we know what astrological Moon position is active we have the ability to consciously choose how we want to use it to our advantage and we can tell how it will fit in with the rest of our personal horoscope. I see the Moon position as an emotional spot light helping to bring awareness into the inner world of feelings.

Moon in Scorpio and Sun in Libra

The combination of Moon in Scorpio with Sun in Libra is putting us to the test. We have to develop a willingness to let go, get ready for profound changes and make good decisions. I know that is not the easiest task and we have been asked to adjust to changes in our society and tightening the belt for some time now. We constantly have to monitor our thoughts and fears in order to stay in balance. And this is exactly what we need to do now with total clarity and determination. Scorpio is not a timid one and will help the Libra energies to a good, honest and more profound start into the rest of the year.

Suggestion

As usual you might sit with a cup of tea and your journal for your inquiry. I always say that because it creates a little ritual for your inner connection with your higher self. This is a good time for you to take inventory in your relationships and ask yourself how you are able to deal with changes and challenges to the status quo. Are you growing in your relationship? How are your communication skills? Is there an area with your partner which needs to be addressed with honesty without attacking your loved one? How is your balance between intimacy and autonomy? Would you like to be more autonomous and free or are you yearning for a deepening of your love?

In relationships we are asked to learn tolerance and respect for the differences we have. Our intimate relationship is usually the most profound area of spiritual teachings to help us grow out of our childhood traumas and conditioning. In relationships we are the most vulnerable and unconsciously reactive to outer stimulus. We usually are very emotional, tend to be righteous and truly think if just the other person would change in that and that way, we would be happy.

Of course we can not expect to change our partner — we can only learn to adjust our own expectation to a level of a more harmonic togetherness. Most struggle and fights in relationships are our desperate trying to fix something in the outside in order to feel better inside. Has it ever worked for you? It never has for me!

All your power and freedom is inside of you and how you adjust your thoughts and feelings without the dependency on outer circumstances. That could mean that you keep focusing onto the parts of your partner you love and pull your attention away from the parts you are reacting to. Abraham Hicks, who is a wonderful teacher on the subject of Law of Attraction, puts it this way.

– By My Attention to Things, I Am Making Choices…

You’ve read lots of information about the process of awakening to living the life of your dreams. You’ve seen The Secret and understand how the law of attraction works. Perhaps you’ve read books, attended teleseminars and live seminars and you’ve put a lot of time, money and effort into learning about manifesting and attracting whatever you want in life.

You were so excited, enthusiastic and optimistic, because this really is life transforming material. You know that this can change your life, but so far it hasn’t changed the things you would like to change in any significant way. You are not yet living the life of your dreams. Maybe.you have become disheartened and discouraged. It’s all supposed to be so easy and straightforward. Your heart yearns to awaken to live the life of your dreams.

So what’s stopping you? Well, something must be or your life would have changed by now. You would be seeing the results. You would be enjoying all those things you want in life.

Consider for a moment, what awakening really means to you. What is it that you wish to awaken to? Is it a life of abundance, a life of spiritual awareness, a life filled with love, joy and happiness? That sounds so wonderful, and yet, if you wholeheartedly believed that it was wonderful, and that it was possible for you, then you would be living it by now. So what’s stopping you?

Maybe you come up with lots of ‘reasons’, lots of excuses why you haven’t yet got to where you want to be. It’s so easy to slip into the ‘victim’ mode and blame external events and circumstances. “There’s the recession.” “The economic climate is a big worry” “The media is constantly bombarding me with tales of gloom and doom and all the woes of the world, so that it’s difficult to stay positive”.etc., etc. You are very busy and there just aren’t enough hours in the day to do all the things you would like to be doing. And because you are so busy, with all your doing, you are becoming more and more exhausted and have less energy and enthusiasm for those things that filled you with such optimism and joy.

These are all wonderful ways of keeping you exactly where you are, with the wheels spinning and going nowhere. You can convince yourself that you are doing all you can to attract or create the changes you want, but this isn’t so. You are doing all you can to keep yourself where you are. If you feel irritated or indignant reading this, that’s good. It may prompt you to start considering and acknowledging how you are keeping yourself from awakening.

You read earlier – if you wholeheartedly believed that it was wonderful, and that it was possible for you, then you would the living it by now’. Do you recognise this as true?

The law of attraction operates on the basis that vibrations matching those you are creating will be attracted to you. And so you get more of the same. Abraham Hicks tells you the same thing and you’ve probably read it in many other places as well. If you believe this, then it follows that you accept that you are not a vibrational match with that you wish to attract. This means that, in addition to the positive thoughts and feelings you have around whatever it is you wish to create and attract into your life now, there are thoughts, ideas and beliefs creating different vibrations, and these outweigh those of your dreams.

They tend to be the old thought patterns and beliefs that you developed a long time ago, which maybe you thought had been replaced by the new, updated ideas about what you want. You may not be aware of the beliefs you hold, which are in opposition to what you think you want. When you become aware of them, you can change them. Sometimes this is very easy and sometimes it is less easy, but you can do it and, in order to create different results in your life, you have to do it.

Now you know that what is stopping you from awakening are the old beliefs and patterns of thought which supported your old lifestyle and which need updating in order to achieve the life of your dreams. So, notice your thoughts and feelings and be creative. By changing the way you think and feel, you really can create the life of your dreams if you believe you can.

It happens to everyone.  Sometimes things happen, life conspires, events occur, and even though we may know intellectually that we are 100% responsible, we feel bad.  Bad could be scared, it could be upset, it could be angry, it could be worried, it could be some of all of them…but whatever it is, we feel bad.  Then we try and use our “spiritual knowledge”, take 100% responsibility and we find ourselves in an even faster downward spiral.

We can turn it around…and we have to.  The Law of Attraction says that the worse it gets, the worse it gets.  Feeling bad attracts more feeling bad.  The most important thing we can do is to feel better and feel better now.

Once you know you are feeling bad and you acknowledge that you want to feel better, you are really already started…and here is how to get to feeling good.

Step 1 – Say Thank You.  You may not be feeling particularly grateful at the moment, but that doesn’t matter.  Say Thank You to the Universe.  At the very least you can be grateful that at least you can feel something.  Feeling is the emotional guidance system at work and just knowing that your system is working as it should is a great start.  There is also a lot more to be thankful for…no matter what is happening, you have a miraculous life going on just existing in your physical body and the entire world is working exactly like it ought  to be…so feel grateful.

Step 2 – Now that you have got a little gratitude going, it is time to recognize that you are responsible for whatever you are getting in your life.  You did it, you made it, your life is your creation and so, whatever it is you are feeling bad about is something you created.  Now that you recognize that, you should feel pretty good about your ability to create.  You powerfully created your experience, and if you created the one that you are feeling bad about, you can create one to feel good about.  That knowledge in and of itself should give you at least a little wry smile.  Take advantage of that and smile.  Smile for a full minutes, 60 full seconds.  Do you know how hard it is to smile and feel bad at the same time?

Step 3 – The emotional turn-around has started now, so take advantage of it.  Ask yourself the question, “What do I want?”  Something has made you feel bad and you can identify what that is, and you know  that you do not want that.  So, turn the bad into the good by asking yourself, “What do I want?”  If someone made you angry, perhaps you want to feel good about the person.  If you can’t pay your bills, you might want a quick, easy and effortless flow of money.  Whatever it is, identify what you do want and focus on that.  Spend a minute just thinking about having what you want.

Step 4 – Use the Law of Attraction to your advantage (you use gravity to your advantage all the time, so why not Attraction).  According to Abraham in Esther and Jerry Hicks’ book, “Ask and It Is Given”, “…the Law of Attraction is so very powerful that when you hold a thought for as little as 17 seconds, another thought like it will join it…if you manage to stay focused upon any thought for as little as 68 seconds, the vibration is powerful enough that its manifestation begins.”  So, take what you do want and phrase it in the present tense as though you now have it.  If you want a quick, easy and effortless flow of money, then your statement would be, “Money is flowing to me quickly, easily and effortlessly.”  Once you have that statement, take a blank piece of paper and handwrite that sentence with your dominant hand (your right hand, if you are right handed, your left hand if you are left handed) ten times, and then with your other hand (penmanship does not count) five times.  You will now have been focused on what you want for at least 70 – 80 seconds.  You should be feeling pretty good.

Step 5 – End where you began, with gratitude.  Give thanks for your new better feeling.  Give thanks for a perfect Universe and a perfect creation where your feelings are your guide and where you can guide your feelings.  Just be grateful.

Once you have mastered this little five step process that takes much less than five minutes you will find that you feel bad a lot less often and for a lot shorter period of time than you used to.  You may even welcome the occasional bad feeling, since it is just your guidance system at work, and it will always lead you to a better feeling and the beginning of the manifestation of something you really want.

So, no matter what, you can feel good now!

I always get a kick out of discovering the correlations between events in my life and the astrological equivalent in the skies. It makes me feel connected with the motions of the universe in a meaningful way. I become a conscious part of the bigger picture and I just enjoy that.

In astrology we look at many relevant aspect connections between the planets in your personal chart as well as in the actual daily astrology. This article is an astrological discussion and forecast of the planetary weather in the heavens for September 7 to 9, 2009. If you have the same specific aspect connection being active in the heavens as in your own personal chart you will experience similar things I am describing. Like if you have Moon in Aries in your personal chart you will be able to relate to what I describe here today in an even more profound way.

Yesterday I had my Circle of Writers group meeting and I could really feel the Aries energy charging us up. We are 5 terrific women who get together every 2 weeks to share our work and support each other. It is like a master mind group and an enormous asset to have in my life. Writing is a solitary profession and I spend most of my time at home and in front of the computer. For me to have my circle is just wonderful. It is so inspiring to watch each other going through the process of writing and publishing our books.

The Moon in Aries

Yesterday we had an especially exceptional meeting. We had so much energy going on, so many ideas to share with each other it felt like we were on a whole new level. It was the most energetic meeting we ever had and that is Aries energy for you!

Aries is a powerful symbol of new beginnings, energy, light, and creativity. People born under the sign of Aries may be destined to be great leaders—if they can keep their aggression and tendency to dominate others in check. Aries must always be undertaking new projects, especially creative endeavors, to keep their high energy occupied and flowing. They are extroverts and tend to be very impulsive and initiative. Their challenge is to learn guiding their energy into proper channels.

The Moon in Aries
will give us impatience and things will not move fast enough. We might have a shorter fuse then usual and easier to irritate or pick a fight. But it also gives us this fresh energy, motivation to start something new and put all our energy towards our goal. There is decisiveness and power available to really take action steps towards our dreams and create a new future.

Aries and their many Ideas

Aries is a very self confident initiator and warrior. There is no self doubting but the willing application to move and manifest in the physical realm. Always the first step of any manifestation process is the conception of an idea, and then the clarity of intention and the last step is the action we take for implementation.

For me the action part helps me to become aligned emotionally with my goals and I am enjoying the journey more and more. I used to get hang up with not being already there where I wanted to go. But I have learned to be in the moment and enjoy myself there and so can you.

The creator of Law of Attraction Abraham Hicks talks about three steps for manifestation.

1.    First we have a specific desire
2.    Then we released it to the universe into that creative potentiality
3.    To receive the manifestation of our desire in our life we do need to be energetically in alignment with it. We have to keep focused on where we want to go instead of the deficiency of that we want to manifest. Wherever I focus the universal manifesting energy will follow and flow. This is where our power lies.

–If you will simply imagine your life as you want it to be, all cooperative components will be summoned. And even more important, all components that are summoned will cooperate. It is Law. The experience that you have with others is about what you evoke from them.—Abraham Hicks

Take a Moment for Yourself

Today the Moon position is great for you to get your process of manifestation rolling. Write down your next dream project you want to manifest in your life. Write down why you want that dream in your life. What will it give you? How does it feel to be there? Get excited about it.  I really like you to approach this from an emotional standpoint. Your emotions will carry you towards it and make you feel good along the way.

Remember every journey starts from where you are. But to reach your destination you need to have a clear picture of where you want to go and keep your compass on it. If you like to learn more about the process of manifestation I recommend the books of Abraham Hicks. I have all of them and enjoy their teachings very much. They resonate with my own experience and I know them to be true.

Crystal Quartz as a Tool to help you Manifest
I am a gemstone lady as you might know. I love to beauty and the use of the metaphysical properties of gemstones in my life. I use them in meaningful soul jewelry, for meditation purposes, as objects of beauty on my shelves and altar and as an anchor to help me manifest my dreams. When you have done the work of becoming clear of your goal, charged yourself with the supporting emotions you can then download the emotional thought forms into a crystal. You can charge your crystal the following way.

•    Hold the crystal in between both hands. Take some deep breath and become aware of the energy field of the crystal between your two hands.
•    Then focus intently on your vision, intention, or goal. Imagine in it powerful clarity, as if you really were already experiencing the goal accomplished. Feel the strong emotions of success and fulfillment associated with your goal. Fill yourself with that energy. Maybe imagine it with a specific color penetrating your whole body and each cell.
•    Then release the image of your goal with a sharp breath out and store that energy burst into your stone.

Now you will be able to activate your vision any time by simply taking the crystal into your hand and reconnect with the thoughts and emotions you have stored in it.

Moon in Taurus
After you have done the work of getting clear about your intentions, setting your emotions into motion with the Moon in Aries, you will have the Moon in Taurus tomorrow, supporting you with further steps of implementation and practical steps and measures.

Taurus people are very much in tune with the earthly plane. Due to the influence of Venus, they have a great love for beauty found in all areas of live and things such as art, jewelry, and nature. Taurus people are loyal, patient, stubborn and deliberate in working toward their goals, just as farmers must be in tending their crops from planting through harvest. When a Taurus person undertakes a project, it most likely will be completed! Grounded in reality and the physical world, they excel at any profession because they just take one step after the other till they arrive at their goal.

I wish you much fun with the process of creation and hope you enjoy yourself.
