What you need right now

Had a trés blissful day with Blessed, after a particularly shitful week, I felt the time was right for a day without any difficulties.
We set of late morning to find her a dress for her engagement party next week. Blessed suggested the best kept secret dress shop in Melbourne, filled to the brim with dresses in a rainbow of colors and sizes. So I thought of us getting the Star Car Park near the shop, I pictured her car backing into it and blow me down when we saw the park for us when we arrived at the frantically busy shopping centre. As we assessed the dresses I suggested a certain style that perhaps Blessed should channel for the party and the sales girls walked over and was holding THE dress for Blessed. The most perfect, divine flutter of silk and velvet, evoking images of Ali Macgraw with Robert Evans, palazzo's, inheritances and manhattans' served in a highball glass on the terrace at 5pm.
Blessed knew her dress was there and so it was. Meant.

We left, headed up to Chapel Street, I stated to Blessed that I would work on creating another Star Car Park and low and behold there it was outside the shoe shop, as we backed in Blessed and I congratulated ourselves on our skills.

We then found the heavenly velvet evening shoes we had imagined at the dress shop, wandered down Chapel Street and found perfect accessories and 20 minutes later we were sitting at the best table at Cafe E 'Cucina having champagne and pumpkin gnocchi in a porcini sauce with a dash truffle oil and quail rissotto before you could say 'manifestation'.

So what was the secret to our success?
I am starting to get the hang of this manifestation gig now and I see a few recurring themes that I need to share with you:

1] Have clear goals but not expectations. When you throw out to the world you will get will get not what you imagine but what you need. So say, "We want the perfect dress, the best parks and a great lunch" and leave the rest up to the universe. Example: I did imagine the car backing into the park on the street, I just didn't hold onto a particluar car spot.

2] Send out positive energy. Blessed and I had plenty of that today, hi-jinx and the best friend kinda love that souls vibrating together only brings.

3] Be filled with gratitude. Gratitude raises your energy to a higher vibration and then we are able to honor the creative process of manifesting. At lunch Blessed and I toasted with a glass of sparkling wine to how fabulous life is on the Wheel of Fortune, its ups and downs and everything in between. Life is real and with it comes hard days and sleepless nights but sometimes there are moments, brief pauses from the frenetic scramble where you are in the sweet spot, overjoyed with the simple occasion of living.

4] Have intention all the time. When you have intention you are putting it all out on the universal washing line, you are asking for answers and they will come in the form of clues and syncronicities, some are easy to decifer, some take time to become clear but it makes life fun putting it together.


Thanks you Universe for a splendid day!
