    Tell me YOUR thoughts, beliefs and opinions on the manifestation rhetoric / law of attraction! I'm so curious to hear from you :)

      I was taught by Jagadguru Sai Maa Lakshmi Devi to focus on the Law of Resonance instead and to focus on the Higher Faculties of the minds through Imagination, Intuition, Perception, An Expanded Memory, Reason, Will, all the former focused and culminated through a focal point.

      I have never really worked at manifesting. I follow Yeshua and I am filled with. His Holy Spirit. He manifest for me anything that I need in my life. Now earning something is completely different than manifesting, I do believe that a person needs to work diligently.

    thanks for making this video 💜 as a psychotherapist that uses a lot of spirituality in my work, i can't tell you how many times the first part of my work with clients is helping them letting go of the need to manifest, knowing that it is an essential step to live a life that is not completely focused on the smaller self, so they can finally connect with the higher self, and surrender to the joy of not being the little one in "control" ✨ i don't find many videos out there with this narrative 🙏🏼 thank you again!

    Excellent Helena Absolutely 1000 % agree with you I too am over this trend - manifesting your life - Let The Inner Intelligence Allow your soul to be the guide and then go with the flow with actions Yes the planetary influences are there as well

    My husband and I are moving to Nice, France in the next few months. We decided to live our best life and not live in fear and anxiety. We always wanted to live in France and are so energized with our decision. I have Saturn, Neptune, Uranus, Pluto and Chiron at 29’ and 0’. I feel very empowered by our decision!

    Not even two full minutes in and I already know I agree. I also stopped manifestation when I learned more about Hellenistic astrology and realized the two are fundamentally incompatible. What we desire will be ours, but only in divine timing.

    I could've agree more. I loved this video. I used to do treasure naps and manifesti8n lists but abandoned them when I realized that my higher Self knew much better about my path in this incarnation than my Egowanting to manifest. I get a lot of guidance through my dreams that feels like it helps me live intuitively. I like Byron Katie's work that teaches "Loving What Is", much like Stoicism does that is about letting life unfold without judgment.
    I'm aware of the current transits as an astrologer, so when I encounter certain things that feel blocked, like under a Mars/Saturn transit, I'm curious and turn away from the blocked situation toward "what wants to happen" at that moment to find the flow in any moment.
    That's my version of living intuitively while still being aware of astrology on a daily basis. We have free will to engage with what is unfolding no matter what it is by choosing our attitude and consciousness.

    This is so timely im going through the same thing. You articulated a lot of it fully well. One more thing made me stay away from the idea of "manifestation" and self-improvement in general is that having to feel like you do all the work alone. And that goes back to what you said about it is empowering and harmful to be in position believing you manifested everything (including the unpleasant unwanted experiences)
    Now i don't direct myself into anything anymore, i just flow with what life offers now, adjust my actions along with it and make the process the most fun and magical

    Thank you for posting this message. I often stress so damn hard because I am well aware that sometimes I (and all of us)want things that may not be in our best interest. This whole manifesting culture has been so stressful on me…..what if I try to manifest something that isn’t on my timeline or shouldn’t be on my timeline? What if I need to go through this (insert bad situation here) in order to learn something I need to learn to be successful later on? Ive really struggled with this concept but you were able to put into words what could not. So thanks for taking away some of that anxiety 😘 not to mention it kinda takes the fun and excitement out of life.

    Hi! I’ve been a long time fan of your Astrocartography videos and have never commented 😂 thank you for sharing your insights regarding LOA. I actually share the same insights you’ve explained & definitely caution against a lot of the harmful rhetoric within LOA. It’s primarily why I’ve never dived fully into LOA, Abram Hicks, The Secret, etc as I’ve always felt these to be very snake oil like. I am a student of astrology and love it wholeheartedly.
    While I don’t follow more of the modern LOA techniques, I subscribe to Neville Goddard’s teachings, which imo, kinda works better with Astrology depending on how you see it.
    I’ve always thought LOA depends greatly on your vibration as if it were gravity. Goddard’s teachings don’t depend on that, but instead asks to live in the state fulfilled because all possibilities have already happened. They’re just in different timelines. Meaning, you prepare for the state fulfilled aka your manifestation. So what does that mean? Working on yourself, practicing and preparing to receive what you know you have.
    A lot of the teachings also talk about detaching to allow the space for growth behind the scenes. Which is contradictory to scripting everyday etc.
    There’s a lot more to it for sure. But one of the things Neville Goddard talks about is how it’s not the length of time it takes to receive something, but at the frequency in you practice living in the state fulfilled.
    But anyway, thank you for your videos!

    Hi Helena, I just loved hearing this! Thank you! I have been pondering this topic for a while.. the best times of my life have been without conscious manifestation. When i think back it has almost always been living in a state of trust and faith. I agree with what resists persists, the more i ask and expect the more often I have fallen in a heap. Much love to you..I appreciate your wisdom ❤

    • @lisanoell
      @lisanoell 6 дней назад

      Yes, it is a higher trust and faith to NOT put on the manifester’s blinders, which hide unimaginable possibility. It takes faith to NOT try to get control of everything and to pretend we can positive-think ourselves into a protective bubble from life and its challenges. We gain resilience, wisdom and strength from the challenges of life and actual effort and work vs manifesting and expecting the universe to just deliver us from problems and give us whatever our short-sighted self wants.

    I love this video Helena - your approach is so inspiring and nuanced. We can work hard to manifest our dreams and goals, but our souls has a plan . . . life is always working for our greatest and highest good. We came here to learn experience and grow. Getting what we want all the time when we want it won't necessarily help us grow, right? My favorite things you said were 1) to surrender to the flow of life and 2) find joy everyday.

  • @eignalegnar4805
    @eignalegnar4805 3 дня назад

    Hey Helena! Love your videos! Manifestation is actually happening always whether you believe your manifesting or not. I don’t think everything in your life is of your doing, my belief is that we agree to some things happening or it was destined and how we deal with those things and what we create from them is our manifestation. I don’t think you can ever stop manifesting, maybe once you die but idk nothing about the afterlife, just theories. But it seems like you’re talking about the things people believe is manifesting which is like lists and 369 methods and all, in that case then yeah you can stop doing those acts. But manifesting is part of life. If you’re still interested in this topic, I encourage you to study Jackie Winkler’s work, I like the way she teaches manifestation. She bases it on aligning with your highest self and getting to the root of limiting beliefs so they don’t stop you from what your soul truly desires. No lists, no mantras, nothing. Best thing I discovered

    Why couldn’t these two things coexist? Using LOA techniques to foster a sense of agency and thereby raising your vibration but astrological weather can still influence the circumstances you’re presented with. You can use still LOA logic to cope with hard astrological transits as long as you’re wholly aware of your situation.

    This sounds bad but my belief is that life is a bitch with a few great moments that we savor. I've always used astrology (transits, progressions...) to get through the bad waves of life. Suppose I'm too old but I never went through the manifestation period. I do like to write and listen to music which soothes me. I like to just sit and do nothing and that's when my best ideas come to me. I admire your journey through life; it's inspiring.

    I completely agree. My main issue with manifesting is the blind faith problem it has, which religions have. What I like about astrology is that it doesn’t require your faith. Astrology is always there, meanwhile manifesting is contingent on faith. Manifesting can easily create an uncomfortable relationship with yourself.
    I also just trust astrology more because it has more history and it actually has ancient texts, which manifesting doesn’t. A lot of people try to say Manifestation is rooted in Hinduism, but it actually isn’t. Manifesting didn’t exist until the 1800s.
    There is actually a non-dual teacher Rupert Spira, and there are people who try to use non-dual teachings into manifesting now. But Rupert Spira himself said to treat everything like it was fated.

      Based off Neville Goddard’s teachings, Jesus Christ was teaching law of assumption. He was the Son of God (ie. God made all of us in His image , God comes down to earth to experience life in each of us) and if you want to heal, you need to believe and only those that had faith, healed.

      @@BlueBanistersLove ⁠⁠yes I am well aware of Neville Goddard, and I have been since 2019. But I just don’t believes it’s a journey worth doing. His teachings have caused more harm than good in peoples’ lives. Haven’t you ever found it strange how the same ones who claim to succeed, go off and start making courses to make you succeed too, as if that’s the only route in life after finding and succeeding with manifesting?
      Not only that, but Neville Goddard’s teachings add a layer of mental gymnastics that’s hard to incorporate at first. The whole “everybody/everything is you pushed out”, but then if you complain about failing with manifesting it’s your fault, but wouldn’t it make more sense for it to be the fault of the person who’s reading the persons post complaining about how it all doesn’t work, if everybody is them pushed out?
      Like since you saw my comment not believing in manifesting, wouldn’t it be right for me to say you manifested me getting to this point of sharing my thoughts and feelings on manifesting? After all it is “your reality” where “you” are reading my comment and replying to it. my comment that you technically manifested if we are talking about Neville’s teachings at work.
      The same people who say “everybody/everything is you pushed out”, would never go out of their way to manifest for you, despite them saying how effortless it all is.
      Everything becomes your fault, or something that you influenced to happen.
      Is it really a journey worth doing if mostly everyone is failing and struggling, and the small percent of people who claim to succeed are selling you something?
      I recommend reading about the history of Christian Science and Mary Baker Eddy, thousands of people who died from Christian Science. A lot of them believed their desire to be fulfilled (cured of sickness), and yet they died. They called the sickness an illusion and persisted in being healed, and yet they died. They really were so immersed into the feeling of their wish fulfilled to the extent where they didn’t accept medication, and look what happened.

      @ I am suffering tremendously from a health affliction with no cure. Last year, I hired a manifestation coach and read all of Neville Goddard. Nothing worked. This past August, I had a reading with Helena which showed me the terrible transits going on in my birth chart . I am being hit badly by Saturn, Neptune & Uranus all at one time plus other things. It’s like all my efforts for vitality are blocked right now. It’s hell on earth.

    I can’t manifest my bad health condition to get better… I’ve tried everything. Just chalking it up to bad astrological timing (hard transits from the big 3 : Saturn, Neptune & Uranus on tricky natal placements) I guess. Hoping the wheel will turn soon. My life is right now a hell on earth with suffering physically and emotionally and I had a lot of fear leading up to the condition starting. I can’t get out of it.. I have tried everything.
