Breathe and Believe
We hear a lot about manifestation, magic, and the Law of Attraction. We try magical spells with tarot cards, candles, and crystals. Some people seem to find these practices very effective at helping them achieve their goals. Other people come to me wondering why their practices have never achieved the results they wanted. Some people have even reported that their circumstances have declined since they began these metaphysical practices.
There can be a few reasons that your energy work is not getting you the results you want.
My mother used to say that God answers all prayers, but sometimes the answer is no. There may be a larger cosmic reason that your desires do not align with the Universe’s plan for you.
Yet, there are some issues of technique that make a difference when we practice manifestation work. If you are not using these techniques properly, you might experience lackluster results.
The most important technique for any energy work, divination, magic, mediation, or yoga is proper conscious breathing. When we pay attention to the breath, breathe deeply and fully, and direct our breath, the breath becomes our most important magical tool.
You can follow every step in a spell you found in a book, but if you do not use the power of your breath, your spell may fall flat.
Another important point of technique is to do the mundane work associated with your desire. Your desire must be possible in the mundane world, and you must do the things that it takes to support that desire.
Many people will tell you that you need to believe in the energy work you are doing for it to be effective. I will take that a step further and say that you need to believe in yourself, and in your ability to achieve whatever goal you have set for yourself.
However, belief is not enough. In doing this energy work, you must be able to visualize your success as if it is happening in this moment. See your success in real time, in the present moment, in your mind’s eye. It is there that the magic happens.
The StaarCorner
StaarCon will take place January 21 through January 23, 2022. We will meet in person in Palm Beach Gardens, and online on Accelevents. Choose the ticket that is right for you!
One class I am really looking forward to is “Court Cards and Kingdoms” with Kim Danbert. Kim will lead us in a series of role-playing exercises in which the cards will come alive!
In participating and observing this process, we will develop a deeper understanding of the cards that are often considered the most confusing.
Wherever you are in your journey as a card reader, StaarCon will help you get to the next level!
Tarot Spreads Tools and Techniques Hybrid Class
On Thursday, September 30, from 7 pm to 9 pm ET, I will be teaching a hybrid tarot class about tarot spreads.
The class will meet in person at my Palm City office and on Zoom. Tickets are now available for both options.
The recorded class will be available for all ticket holders to review.
The class description on my website will give you more information about the class, and the opportunity to register.
I hope you will join us!
Breathing with a Tarot Card
When we speak of breathing with intention, we often talk about breathing an energy in, or breathing into a particular chakra or area of the body.
When working with specific tarot cards to manifest our desires, we can breathe the energy of the card into our bodies. This empowers us with the energy of that card.
Here is how to breathe in a tarot card.
Select the card that carries the energy you need more of in your life. For example, if you need a great new job, select the Ace of Pentacles or the Three of Pentacles. If you want a new love relationship, select the Two of Cups. If you want to feel more vitality and inspiration, select the Ace of Wands.
Look at the card and begin meditative intentional breathing. Think about the energy of the card. Visualize your life as it will be when this energy is manifested. Now hold the card to your heart, your throat, and your third eye. As you do this, consciously take the energy of the card into your body as you inhale.
This powerful practice will help you bring your desires to life.
The Week in Review
This week I shared a blogpost about one of the most confusing cards in the tarot deck, the Moon.
On my YouTube channel this week we will have two free tarot classes!
From Around the Web
From Tarot Parlor, Use Tarot Cards to Manifest What You Want.
From Tarot Romance, the Top Twelve Tarot Cards for Manifesting.
From Emerald Lotus Divination, a tarot spread to help you manifest your desires.
Cards for Your Consideration
A good card to consider when thinking about the process of manifestation and energy work is Major Arcana 1, The Magician. Related to the planet Mercury, the Magician’s ruling element is Air. The element of Air supports conscious breathing and effective visualization. As ruler of the intellect, Air also supports our belief in self and in our goals.
As card 1, the Magician is an initiate, just beginning a journey of learning and growth. As such, this card encourages us to begin our journey toward fulfilling our goals.
The Magician is pictured with the Four Tools of Magic on his table. Each tool gives the Magician the ability to work with one of the Four Elements. With those elements the Magician can create what he desires.
