THE MAIN ATTRACTION

By: Cynthia Litman

Pearl of the Week: Plug into Your Heart

"Roses in A Vase" - Renoir

With all the nostalgia that February brings, I keep hearing the pearl in Poison’s song “every rose has its thorn.”

The "law of attraction" is no secret and has been a universal spiritual law for centuries, so why does it seem that so many people are clueless as to its existence and power?

I often wonder if I actually asked for what I received with defeatist thoughts like – “I don’t remember signing up for this”, “I got more than I bargained for”, "I reaped what I sowed" and my good old standby “that’s the way the cookie crumbles.” 

Then I recall one definition of "law" is "a statement of an order or relation of phenomena that so far as is known is invariable and unchangeable under the given conditions".

So what if everything that happened in your life, you 100% set up for yourself because of your beliefs, laws and affirmations?? You staged it, planned it, intended and manifested it?  Even when you fail, you take the same path again. Yikes!! Someone get me a new stage director!!

I never could have imagined that I’d be exactly where I am this day. Yet, looking back, I see that I’m exactly where I let myself be. I laid my path brick by brick.

Overview the areas of your life and see the life lessons in them. Do you see the laws you've laid for yourself? The relationship you’ve attracted, even the crappy ones chock full of heartaches, are mirrors into your souls.  Actually most of my greatest slaps in the face have been my most valuable lessons. Each smack has brought me closer to what's true to my heart. 

My heart closes when I try to enact an unholy law.

Sweeping in with the February snowflakes is Cupid and as love fills the air, I conjure memories of my past loves.

This practice involves remembering not just past boyfriends and Valentines Days spent alone but other lost loves, like volleyball, playing violin, sleeping in...  What was it I loved so much in my past that I left behind? What loves did I blindly follow? Did I turn away love? What else have I left frozen in time?

It's time for the thaw. Time to clear my heart for the love I have yet to know.

The key to unlocking my heart is trust. I’m learning to trust. To trust myself and be a conscious player in the universe’s grand master plan which trusts me completely to play my part. Trusting also that everything will turn up roses and learning not to prick myself on their thorns. 

Better yet, I trust that by following my heart I will manifest roses without thorns.

In love.
