ABUNDANCE
“Abundance is the constant. The realization of abundance in our everyday lives is the
outward expression of our vibrational alignment with Living Harmony."
Cathleen Campbell
Fullness to overflowing. More than required, an unending supply. We may think of abundance in terms of cash and material possessions, but material effects are just a drop in the bucket of abundances life affords. Our true abundance comes to us in the form of the endless opportunities constantly flowing our way from which we can partake to our heart’s content. Abundance isn’t something you generate yourself, nor can you. While we speak of “attracting abundance” we’re not so much creating as we are opening ourselves up to finally noticing and then accepting the truth of the abundance that surrounds us. Like selecting a 
particular shade from a palette of colors, we manifest by choosing from the abundance of what is.
"How many of us go through our days parched and empty, thirsting after happiness, when we're really standing knee-deep in the river of abundance?" - Sarah Ban Breathnach
Perhaps we’ve heard it said that Abundance simply is our natural state. That may be true, but how do we get back to a state we may not ever have consciously known?
It’s simple, really: if you don’t have the abundance you want, your vibrational frequency is not in harmonic resonance with that which you wish to experience, have or be. Clear those blocks, your vibrational frequency will naturally harmonize with abundance. From a clear place, we can then launch consciously chosen intentions - we are magnetically attractive, manifesting in seemingly magical ways.
Often we seek to learn about manifesting and success because we’re lacking in some area of our lives, most often in the area of financial resources. We wish to create, generate, find, even have given to us that which we think we are lacking. But lack is a lie, a man-made concept. Though our current circumstances may appear to be limited, our options few, how many times must we hear of yet another’s successful accomplishments when they’ve had to overcome far more than we face right now before we will believe that Abundance is there for all?
“Abundance is not something we acquire. It is something we tune into.” Dr. Wayne Dyer
While it might sound more appealing to speak of abundance in terms of all life has to offer, we still live in a tangible world, a world that has agreed to use money as a means of exchanging value. Like it or not, we simply need money in order to live and enjoy life in general, and in many cases to enjoy the rest of the abundances the world has to offer us. As Wallace Wattles, the revered author of The Science of Getting Rich, wrote nearly 100 years ago:
“WHATEVER may be said in praise of poverty, the fact remains that it is not possible to live a really complete or successful life unless one is rich. No man can rise to his greatest possible height in talent or soul development unless he has plenty of money; for to unfold the soul and to develop talent he must have many things to use, and he cannot have these things unless he has money to buy them with.
A man develops in mind, soul, and body by making use of things, and society is so organized that man must have money in order to become the possessor of things; therefore, the basis of all advancement for man must be the science of getting rich.”
Abundance simply is the constant. The realization of abundance in our everyday lives is the outward expression of our inner harmony. No matter what the moment or circumstance, we can see the possibilities or be blocked by the challenges. We can see, in even our darkest hour, the glimmer of opportunity. Or surrounded by riches we can find our attention drawn to things lost to us forever. Attention is the fertilizer that grows whatever holds it.
Abundance is the simple awareness that there is more than enough. Yet rather than see the endless ocean of possibilities in every area of our lives, stuck energies keep our attention squarely on what is not, and so we continue to create and even grow that painful lack-filled reality, a lack that permeates all areas of our lives, including our finances. We can easily see where we are vibrating at anything less than abundance, for in that area we will experience lack.
The very thing we lack may be the issue, or a symptom our subconscious is using to help us clear our way back to abundance. Lacking cash may mean we are vibrating at the frequency of poverty, or it may indicate our vibration is projecting insecurity. Money in any form in and of itself is not abundance but rather a tool, and in either case we’ll simply fail to manifest the tool of cash thus keeping us in “harmony” with our vibration. Change our vibration and we change our experiential results. Change our vibration and suddenly we’re not just aware of the opportunities, but we’re able to participate and profit from them.
"There is a tide in the affairs of men, Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune," said Shakespeare.
Still, while it may seem a happy problem to have for those who are lacking financial abundance, there are far worse difficulties. Hearts longing for love yet unable to form meaningful connections; possessing financial riches but being unable to rise out of bed; being estranged from those we love...these are the real results of the lack mentality, the lack vibrational frequency.
But when we work on creating abundance in any area of our lives and meet with anything less than success, the result we currently have may not mean failure. The abundance we seek may be on it’s way to us in ways we can’t see, preparing further or finalizing in some way we can’t consciously comprehend. If the results mean we are not to have the abundance we seek, all it means is NOT now, not with your current state of vibrational frequency. It doesn’t mean that others are more deserving or they are smarter, it doesn’t mean you were bad and are now being punished. Discerning whether or not what you are experiencing is true lack is the question. For what we perceive to be lack in the moment may actually be the process. But if we allow ourselves to see the process and determine it to be lack, then we will begin to manifest that lack instead.
“Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough.” Oprah Winfrey
All your RESULTS tell you is where your vibrational frequency has been, and not necessarily where it is right this minute. They are the measure by which you can read your own energy, but the energy of your past. Our current circumstances weren’t created this instant, they are the consequence of the energy we had been sending forth. Yet often we don’t see tangible results the way we’d like them and the culprit is our own attention! As we work to change our vibration, creating that which we desire, our vibration changes but our patience is lacking, our perceptive abilities not yet honed properly. We see the lack in our present and turn our vibration back down again, producing a constant state of stagnation and frustration punctuated by great bursts of positive energy brought about by sheer application of force.
It’s true our feelings are the catalyst for our manifestations, but they are not the only measure or method. When Abraham-Hicks tells you to “feel good” they don’t just mean to sit around on a couch and eat chocolates or watch TV expecting that all your dreams will come knocking on your door. The “feel good” they are talking about does include our emotions, but it is so much more. We have to have a flowing feeling throughout our entire energy signature in order to create and receive abundance.
A universal truth is that as we begin working exercises to create abundance in an area where we still have stuck energy, such as the energy of negative subconscious beliefs, we simply cannot produce success. In fact, as we continue to push against our own energy signature we’ll get an answer in loud response. Try it for yourself and see: work on a financial growth exercise but don’t bother clearing any of your negative money beliefs. As you begin to spend the millions in your dream bank account, you may very well see your own physical bank account dwindle. Work on your abundance overall, and don’t be surprised to find yourself unexpectedly unemployed. And spend time dreaming up the perfect romantic partner when you are still embracing abandonment issues and you’ll watch as the very nice person you were dating simply drifts away.
“Many a man curses the rain that falls upon his head, and knows not that it brings abundance to drive away the hunger.” Saint Basil
Often students of manifesting have these diametrically opposed results and feel they just don’t get it. In one instance they manifest beautifully and easily, giving them inspiration to work on something bigger and more important. But as they begin to work on the thing that really matters to them, they are surprised to find out how difficult it can be and even more so when they come up against some very hard blocks. All it means is that in the first instance where they were able to successfully and easily manifest their intention, they were clear, they had nothing blocking them. Whereas if we are honest with ourselves, the reason we haven’t already manifested the thing we really want is that whether we focus on it consciously or not, we know deep inside we are blocked, or we’d already have it by now.
“It is a truth universally acknowledged that when one part of your life starts going okay, another falls spectacularly to pieces.”
Bridget Jones
We don’t have to manifest in a do or die manner. While chemicalization is a part of the process, the process by which things, change, grow, break down and then reform, it doesn’t have to be so catastrophic. And too we can keep clearing ourselves of whatever we experience thru chemicalization so we don’t get mired in the current mess, but instead we can keep floating just above the fray, confidently moving toward our desired goal. Rather than using force, which is limited and therefore can only produce positive results in a limited way, by clearing our energies and raising our vibrations we begin to realize magnetic attraction of abundance in all areas of our lives.
One of the biggest, most common blocks to creating is the belief that we are creating from scratch. For the most part, much of what we wish to receive has long since been in the works. From the time we were a small child and thought of our dream car, wedding or job, they were already forming and coming towards us. So a major block to clear that would work wonders in any situation is the feeling that you are starting from scratch, that there is much work to do or any of the patterns along these lines. Unless, of course, it is a singularly brand-new thought you have and then yes, you simply start from where you are, but that is a rare thing indeed.
The reality is that our Abundance was there all along. Throughout our lives we launch every single thought and desire, not just those we consciously choose. Every thought we think goes forth and reaches out into substance to be created for us, ready to be drawn into our lives. The more we think the thought, launch the intention, the more that substance will become form. When you realize this, you know that by now you have a huge cache of material things, experiences and people already formed and awaiting your acceptance in your current life.
The spiritual substance from which comes all visible wealth is never depleted. It is right with you all the time and responds to your faith in it and your demands on it. It is not affected by our ignorant talk of hard times, though we are affected because our thoughts and words govern our demonstration. The unfailing resource is always ready to give. It has no choice in the matter; it must give, for that is its nature. Pour your living words of faith into the omnipresent substance, and you will be prospered though all the banks in the world close their doors. Turn the great energy of your thinking toward "plenty" ideas, and you will have plenty regardless of what men about you are saying or doing. Charles Fillmore
The divide keeping us apart from all we have created awaiting us is made up of our blocks, the difference vibrational frequency. For example, we can not experience love when we are vibrating at the frequency of hate, the difference between the two vibrations acts like opposing sides of magnets, they literally can not connect. Clear the blocks, maintain your conscious intention and you have no choice but to manifest your desire...and if you’re smartly positioning your intention as a launching pad, not attached to the specific outcome, often you will manifest “...this AND something better!” And if you do have what you want and want more of it, you may find a weak block, but chances are you are clear to go ahead and manifest whatever you wish. And so it is, as they say.
Harmony being the relational state of agreement, true Living Harmony by definition exists when we are flourishing throughout our lives in the Abundance of our unlimited potential and the unlimited potential of all that surrounds us.
Whatever your current financial scorecard, right now in this moment you can experience Abundance, and in experiencing it with an openness and gratitude simply because it is what holds your attention you will be filling your cup with more and more...let your Abundance flow in Living Harmony.
