Now I know that might go against the natural order of visioning and imagining the thing that you want to manifest out in deep space somewhere, however having two feet on planet earth is just as important.
Here me out.
Personally I’ve never actually had an issue with leaving my body, frequently jumping out into a place where I hover above my self comes naturally. In fact it’s my preferred place to be. Magic happens up there, and there’s an immense sense of escaping reality, shooting up into the stars to exist just there, in that space far far away. Sounds romantic I know, and it is.
But being embodied and embodying is perhaps the single most important factor in creating something solid on earth. It’s a very big factor that I think gets forgotten in the manifestation process.
I know a lot of my friends, colleagues and fellow artists have no problem dreaming and existing in their unconscious, going deep and sinking into the space beyond the space, of channeling and being given brilliant sparks of genius.
But where does this go if there is no embodiment, no actual grounding of that idea into the physical world.
I like to imagine a magician, or alchemist, that take energy- an idea and make it manifest through changing its form into a physical reality. Energy to matter, that’s the process here.
Being of the earth means you can make matter come to life on earth. Being of ether means that ideas, dreams, visions stay as ether, as immaterial ideas that fill up your daydreams and frustratingly never become much else.
I’ve had to work hard at staying in my body. It’s become a playful challenge for me now. There are many things that trigger me out, lack of boundaries, energy leaches, fear, avoidance, boring conversations – but that’s a different story.
If we akin the body to chakras then I am all about the third eye, crown and the one that hovers above the crown, the portal. I’ve got these ones down pat. If you’re having trouble taking your dreams into something solid then focus being in your first 3 chakras, the root, sacral and solar plexus chakras. Take your vision right down there, let it swim and sit there. Embody your vision from this place.
When you’re grounded and centered on earth many synchronicities seem to unfold to make your vision a reality. Chance meetings, people who are the right connection, feedback and messages come in many forms. All of this can be missed if there’s no presence.
Our body also gives us direct feedback about stepping closer to our manifestations or moving further away such as pain, pleasure, heartbeats and sensations. It’s critical to be able to listen to this feedback and take action accordingly. Our bodies facilitate the vision into a physical presence. We are in fact the manifestation so our body needs to walk that, talk that, and be that.
So to my fellow dreamers, visionaries, ether and star buddies I love you, I know you, I feel how your soul shoots around and knows the freedom to simply be part of the universe soaring across the Milky Way. But if you’ve had that urge, the nudge or even the push to manifest something greater than what you’re living now I usher you back to your body, back to this earth and let your body begin to organize a better physical world for you.
If you resonate, then please comment.
In love
