Manifestation Series XII - Miracles

The other week I was telling Elle that I needed a few miracles. The next day, I received a flyer in the mail announcing the 3rd installment of the Metu Neter book series. The name of the book is 'The Key to Miracles'. Check.

Manifestation Series XI - Ask and It Is Given

On my way in to work today, I intended for my clients to offer me more money. It felt good and I really connected with the intention emotionally...vibrationally. As soon as my client walked in the door, she said, 'Simone, would you be able to give us another day here each week starting in September?'

LOL

Manifestation Series X - Critical Thinking with bell hooks

On my vacation in St. Maarten, I was privileged to read the book 'Rock My Soul' by bell hooks. Reading her work was a profound confirmation of what I've felt but have not been able to express to my satisfaction. I'm so glad she exists. I'm so glad that she writes about 2 books a year! Here she is in all her brilliant glory. There are 7 or 8 more parts to this video on You Tube. First Na'im Akbar, then Sun Ra now bell. Love it.

Manifestation Series IX & IX.5 - My Money 2 & Free Sorbet :)

Okay! Really great things happening here. I received a rate increase from one of my clients that I just started working with a month ago.

I moved recently and was in the process of closing my old bank account. About two weeks ago, I was being hit with all of these charges that began to snowball. I spoke with a woman from my bank who, at the time, did not seem very open to helping me. To her credit, she did agree to reverse one the many charges I was hit with. I decided that I would send a final deposit to my old account to bring it out of the red and close the account. When I called in and heard the balance, I couldn't believe it. It listed a balance that was not in the red. I thought, 'Maybe I keyed in to someone else's account.' I immediately pressed 0 to speak to a representative and find out what was going on. She confirmed my balance. She went on to tell me that I'd been reimbursed for most of the snowball of charges on my account...

(What? I couldn't believe I was speaking to an actual bank representative! Really??)
The wild thing about this is that someone at my old bank branch took it upon themselves to reverse all of those charges. I hadn't called asking for it, or expecting it. I expected to have to send a deposit in.

BUT, my sense is that my intention and expectation today, to see.....
OMIGOD. OK. Check this out y'all. Today, I specifically intended:

Today, I intend to see an increase of money in my bank account that is separate from my paycheck. I was serious.

As I was saying above, my sense is that my intention and expectation today, to see more money in my account, was stronger than my expectation to mail a deposit. Woohoo! haha

This evening, my family and I ordered take-out. My dad asked how much our total was. I said, 'It's complimentary.' I was kidding....sort of. We didn't get our take-out for free. BUT, after picking up our take-out, my sister and I went to get dessert. We had a really nice conversation with the woman working there. The woman gave us our dessert for free! I had to include that in this post, so I gave it a .5.

If I can do this, you can too!

Manifestation Series VIII - Hafeezah

Recently, I've been looking to connect with the conscious community. I talked with an amazing sister, Hafeezah, today. I entered a random search on Google and her name came up. She is a life coach and an energy worker. She told me everything I needed to know, essentially, about the career I'm intending to transition into. She shared her wisdom and experience lovingly, freely and openly. She answered questions I didn't even know I had. She sent me info on things I didn't even know I was looking for. I'm now connected to an entire community of bodyworkers, energy workers, mediation and yoga teachers, holistic health practitioners, bookstore owners and more in my area. Amazing.

Manifestation Series VII - My Money

Long story, short, I had to straighten things out with my bank regarding my money. I had to really stand up for myself. Money has been a source of shame for me in the past. It makes sense that past feelings of shame around money would come up now. So, I stood up for myself. I would not take no for an answer. Today, my banker called and told me what I wanted to hear. I manifested what I wanted. Check.

Manifestation Series VI - After anger

I also don't want to leave out this -

I was very unhappy with a certain aspect of my living situation. And, there seemed to be nothing short of moving out that I could do about it. I felt stuck and trapped. I felt so angry. While in my anger, I knew I had a choice. So I chose to focus on what I wanted. I still angry as hell but at the same time I saw the possibility of what I wanted and what I wanted my life to be.

I decided to go for a drive and call my friend Rob. As a result of talking to him, we talked about a way to solve my issue with my living situation. I'm being vague because I haven't totally worked it out yet. But I have something exciting in the works! My conversation with Rob was an answer to what I was asking for in the midst of anger.

Cool, huh?

Manifestation Series - V - By The Way 1

I don't want to jip myself from acknowledging any manifestations that I've been excited about. And since I started a Manifestation Series, I want to have an accurate tally of my deliberately created manifestations. Deliberately created manifestations. haha! When did I start talking like this?? Anyway. Something really cool happened last week at work. My boss asked me to help her with a special project. It sounded like a complicated situation and I wasn't sure I'd be able to help. Right before I went in to work, I set the following intention:
Whether I am able to solve this problem for my boss or not, I intend to feel good about my work. I intend for my boss to feel really happy with my work and feel that I helped her.

It turned out that I did not solve the problem for her. I spent a few hours going over paperwork, but I did not make any headway with helping her to reconcile her work. I really didn't do much of anything at all. But, at the end of the day she was really happy! She thanked me a few times for helping her to get a better perspective on what she was dealing with and for making her feel that she wasn't the only one who was baffled by her work. I went home happy and feeling good that she felt good!

Another deliberate manifestation. Check. :)

Manifestation Series - IV - My Value

Yo!
One area of my life that I have seen the most lack in has been my finances. I could go on and on about this but I will not. First because it'd be boring. Second because it'd be focusing on lack and what I don't want. So, I'm not going there. I'm getting the hang of this. :) Either yesterday, or the day before, I got fed up with having negative experiences with money. I have been focusing on what I want and feeling really really good. In each segment of my day, I have been setting powerful intentions for what I want to see and experience. Things have been progressing nicely, except in the area of money. So I tapped into joy. In joy, I made a serious and powerful statement, almost to the point of yelling, that 'I WANT TO SEE EVIDENCE THAT I VALUE MYSELF MANIFEST IN THE PHYSICAL, THROUGH MY FINANCES, THROUGH MONEY OR OTHERWISE.' Today, while driving into work, I intended to make a lot money. I had no idea how I was going to do that. But I put it out there and expected to see results.

Well don't you know I received an email notifying me that my credit score increased significantly. I have been considering buying a home. My credit score increasing, increases my value to myself! My current credit score makes me eligible for a lower interest rate than my previous credit score. This essentially means that I saved/made a lot of money today!

Then, I discovered that my credit card company increased my credit limit by 250%. I would say that this is definitely physical evidence that I value myself comparable to how I felt when I set the intention.

I'm feeling reeeaaalllly good right now, y'all. I'm going to watch Big Love now. See you at the next installment of the Manifestation Series.

Manifestation Series - III - Sun Ra

First things first, I decided to start a Manifestation Series. So each time I see that I deliberately created something that I want, I can see evidence of it here. In 6 months, on January 2, 2008, I'll have a good sense of what the real deal is with The Secret, Law of Attraction, Deliberate Creation, the Law of Allowing, and most importantly, myself.
--

Yo my good people! Are you up on Sun Ra?? This man was incredible. He was a pioneer of 'free jazz'. He passed in 1993. One of my daily intentions has been to consciously be in vibrational alignment with my Spirit/Soul/Self. I watched the Sun Ra Arkestra perform the song 'Retrospect'. You can view it here. A shift occurred! It was like a light inside me was activated. I experienced myself as vibrating light. I consciously experienced my mind and body as light that is infinite. Talk about vibrational alignment! Woo!

Manifestation Series - II - Express Delivery Update: Na'im Akbar

These videos of psychologist, Dr. Na'im Akbar, came into my awareness recently. I have one of his books entitled, 'Breaking the Chains of Psychological Slavery'. The 3rd segment was a direct answer to my sense of hopelessness and despair about the state of black communities.

Another confirmation that the Law of Attraction is real.

Manifestation Series - I - Express Delivery

Yo. What a day I've had. A relationship or non-relationship (long story) with a guy I was seeing came to an end today. How does that make me feel? Sad.

Also, I feel so hopeless and in despair about the state of the African-American community and the world. I have done and given so much of myself to somehow bring about change. But not much has changed. As far as I can tell, things are only getting worse. It seems there is nowhere else to go and nowhere else to turn for answers. I talked to my friend, Jjai, about it and told her how helpless I felt because I didn't know what else to do. She completely understood. I knew she would. And ultimately, as we normally do, ended up giggling and laughing. Right in the middle of a giggle, I received this flyer through the mail:





Wow right?!






I was in shock! ha! And, check out the fine print!








Laugh more. Talk more. Share more quality time.
POWER UP.
For our customer: Simone. haha! This reminds me of the woman who spoke on Oprah about The Secret, who said when you put something out into the universe, you are placing an order.

Jjai started laughing more and said, 'You did that! You manifested that!'

This happened a few hours ago now. I'm still staring at this clear, in-my-face, express-delivered message from myself in awe. hahaha!...

Yup, still staring at it...
