The dictionary definition of manifest is to show quality or feeling with one’s acts. This hints at the metaphysical meaning.
Manifesting is making thoughts and visions reality, taking ideas from the imagination, and creating them in the physical world. This process often involves generating the feelings of the desired outcome already being a reality using visualization. It is also a new age term that refers to the power of intention that allows us to co-create.
Manifesting is an esoteric process that utilizes the higher Laws of Attraction in our Universe. Some manifesting techniques include using the Moon cycles, visualization, affirmations, candles, and asking your spirit guides for support. Some people make vision boards to manifest.
People commonly manifest:
- New job/increased wealth
- New friendships/relationships/love
- Personal wellness
- Positive karma
In modern ritual style, the monthly manifestation process is begun on the New Moon and completed on the Full Moon. It is important to look at what sign the Moon is in and other factors before deciding to put your intentions upon its energy.
Often when manifesting, people will use mantras, affirmations, or intentions as a tool to phrase their desires and put them into action. Manifesting works best with active phrases. That means, instead of writing “I want a new job,” you would use your energy to say “I got a new job,” or “I got an interview at [insert dream company].”
