America Goes Spiritual
The Law of Attraction and More Mystical Experiences
The world works in strange ways. Even more so when you uncover the secrets with how to communicate with the universe. One popularized method of this is the Law of Attraction. You may have watched the documentary called 'The Secret' on Netflix which will tell you everything you need to know from putting your message out to creating a vision board. (Another good idea is to create a digital vision board, but we will go over that another time.)
One can use the Law of Attraction for big and small things. Skeptics may chose to ask for something small as that is more likely to manifest quicker than a big favor. For instance, ask for a close parking space to be open to your job when you arrive. The main key is to trust that it is going to happen and to stop thinking about it. This has personally worked for me! For a better explanation I love watching 'The Gem Goddess' on YouTube. Her strong suit is talking about vibrations and manifesting. As for vibrations, its very relaxing to search YouTube for 'Meditation Music' or even specific vibration waves for what you are trying to manifest.
In a day and age where spirituality is becoming used more throughout the world, especially America, some people may stray towards a Wiccan-inpsired way of practicing as well. In this manner I am not speaking of the full-fledged religion, more like the aspects of it. More specifically, tarot cards. Online one can find many videos of free tarot card readings if they do not already have a deck of their own. I recommend watching Star Girl the Practical Witch for readings as she does an excellent job at deciphering each card's meaning in comparison to the others drawn.
Misconceptions
Spiritual people listen to reggae and wear crystals, they also normally dress "weird".
This is not true. One does not have to wear zero makeup, have dreads, not care much about style, or have any other stereotypes there are to be spiritual. Some people do end up dressing like this in a subconscious sheep-effect because this is what they believe they should look like, as a form of expressing what they practice. In truth, each journey is different for everyone. Someone may dress up like an alien because that is what they feel is right, and another person who is just as enlightened may look like any other person. For instance, look at the picture of 'The Gem Goddess' I have provided. Style is actually one of the exciting parts about becoming awakened because you get to design your new wardrobe and finally wear clothes you feel comfortable in!
Spiritual People are Not Living Factually
While this may appear true because their are no solid facts supporting it, doesn't mean its not true. When I was younger I remember telling a friend,
"...you know how you just zone out and colors start surrounding everything until you stare too long and it clouds your whole vision?"
(I see auras in a slightly more structured way than this - there can be multiple layers of aura colors like this)
They had no idea what I was talking about, and it was strange to me because I thought everyone perceived the world in the same way that I did. I found out that what I was seeing was auras and that most people have to practice for a very long time to even get a glimpse of them, which I thought to myself I must be special. Some people of course thought I was lying and that auras were fake, which I cannot blame them since they have never seen it. BUT. Now we have technology where one can actually capture their aura with a special camera. Proving that just because you do not see things or believe things that other people experience does not mean you are in the right.
If you were interested in a more realistic picture, it can also look like this but one solid color if you are only seeing this much of it:
Tarot Cards are Demonic
I have been using them since I was fourteen. I am now eighteen. If they were demonic something would have happened by now. The only thing I have gotten from them that was scary was the accuracy.
You Cannot Use Tarot Cards Etc. If You Are Religious
The truth is spirituality is not a "religion", its a way of living. Many Christians shy away from tarot cards but no where in The Bible does it specifically say to not use them. But, of course it is up to that person if they want to use them. In truth, as long as it does not interfere with one's religion it should be fine. I am personally not religious but I do not want to sway anyone to do something they think they should not.
All Spiritual People Believe in Astrology
Not true. If it does not resonate with you, do not feel like you have to touch it. It does help with tarot card readings though as it will help identify who the card is referring to.
How Do I Start MY Journey?
Education
Like any subject in life, you are going to want to educate yourself in it as much as you can before you tackle it. So if you want to use the Law of Attraction, then you should watch 'The Secret' or videos on how it works. Once you dive into this world you will find it is such a deep ocean of knowledge and their is always something to learn or grow upon!
One Bite at a Time
It's easy to get burned out before you get going if you try to do everything at once. I would suggest to take one part of spirituality at a time to work on, then moving onto the next once you've become at least an intermediate at it. Keep in mind that each subcategory differs in mastery time. You are also going to want to practice the others to keep your skills up while learning the new aspect of spirituality.
My Process so Far (an example):
1. Law of Attraction
2. Tarot cards
3. Meditation
4. Health (Current. Yes, you want to have good health for optimal performance.)
Conclusion
Using the Law of Attraction, tarot cards, meditation and eating healthier has changed my life for the better and has made me feel more at peace. Other things you can work on would be yoga, fasting, astral projection, lucid dreaming, etc. (You can also try using crystals to help with vibrations or manifesting. Even if it does not work, placebos work, and it looks pretty. So win win?) I hope this article has inspired you to take time to discover yourself or even just have a healthier lifestyle. <3
