Manifestation seems to be a hot button word these days but speaking it into existence has a long standing tradition. Think about the tradition of blowing out birthday candles. When you make a wish, you are putting out a need or desire in the world that you hope will come true. Whether you are asking for money, love, good health, or even a new pair of shoes, you are manifesting that it happens.
Today, November 11th (11/11), has been labeled manifestation day. This particular 11/11 is considered the most powerful manifesting day of the year because Mercury will eclipse the sun in retrograde. The number 11 is known to be a master number representing inspiration, illumination, and spiritual enlightenment. Manifestation requires individuals to be aware and not passive bystanders. Manifesting is a conscious way to create your own reality. You can do so by saying it out loud, by writing it down, and by visualizing it which will ultimately lead to it happening.
The year is coming to an end and I am thinking about what I would like to see manifest in 2020. When considering my goals and desires, it is advised to speak in present tense to help visualize it being real.
I will become Dr. Branch!
I started my PhD program in 2014. After some hiccups, I am finally on track to be finished within the next year. By the end of 2020, I will be a doctor. I am manifesting it and speaking it into existence, so it will come true.
I will receive a pay increase.
At some point in 2020, preferably at the top of the year, I would love a pay increase or another steady stream of income. More money is always a win.
I will write more.
I love writing (most days). I want to eventually be able to turn this hobby into a career, but in the meantime I will continue to post on this blog and maybe even write a novel, or two or three.
I will travel more.
I will see more of the world but also of the United States. Of the 50 states, I have probably only been to about 10.
I will be more open.
Being open requires vulnerability, and who actually enjoys being vulnerable. I will be more open to accepting advice and help. I will be more open to new relationships, platonic and romantic. I will be more willing to try new things.
On this day, I challenge you to begin manifesting your next year! 2020 is almost here and you are definitely going to kill it. What will you accomplish in 2020?
