This is related to a question you just answered, but how does one open their third eye? I've read so much about how you do readings with your third eye and stuff, but I legit don't know how to do it and I really want to.

first of all i’d recommend reading about the third chakra, so you know something about it; 

i had it ‘’opened’’ since i was very small so i don’t know how to ‘’open’’ it, but you develop it with your intuition!

something that has helped me is keep a dream journal, give yourself 5 min in the morning to write down anything you remember from your dream, doesn’t matter how much - don’t focus on what you don’t remember;

do you know the memory card games? try playing this but without remembering, maybe ask someone else to mix it for you or play it online; instead of relying on your memory, you use your intuition - it’s the very first feeling/hunch you have, but it’s very short, in my cases always under a second; once you get the hang of it and get used to your intuition, it will be a lot easier to listen to, and your 3rd eye will improve as well! 

many people suggest meditation, and you can try 3rd eye meditation! personally meditation isn’t being easy on me so i don’t do it much >< trust in the universe and not being afraid of their information is important as well

“I Sense Spirits”

You can meditate with this sigil over your third eye energy point or the energy point at the top of your head to develop the ability to sense spirits with time.

Or for a more immediate use, draw this (or draw it on a sticker or bandaid) on the back of your neck.

**So a long time ago I got a request for a sigil to help sense spirits, then months later I got a similar requests and forgot about already making one for the first one. So I now have 2 that I equally enjoy the designs of, so just pick whichever vibes with you the most.

him.

Just pick a god, make an offering, and start praying. It's not that big a deal.

The people of ancient times who worshipped these gods from cradle to grave didn't wait around for them to reach out first, that's for historically sure.

~ Infinite States ~

What are states?

"So when I speak of states I am speaking of states of consciousness, attitudes of mind which create a body of belief." - Neville Goddard

According to Neville Goddard, "A state is an attitude of mind, a state of experience with a body of beliefs which you live by." In other words, a state of consciousness is the mental attitude you carry about yourself and the outer world. Your self-concept determines the state you live in and the experiences you have in your outer reality as you navigate throughout the world.

Ask yourself this:

Do you identify with the state of being a "victim" of the outside world or being the powerful master of your own reality?

▪︎States of being▪︎

If you are in the state of being poor, you will experience poverty in the outer world.

▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎

If you are in the state of being wealthy, you will experience wealth and riches in the outer world.

▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎

If you are in the state of being admired and wanted by others, you will experience being wanted and receiving admiration from others in the outer world.

▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎

If you are in the state of being unwanted and ignored, you will experience being unwanted and ignored by others in the outer world.

▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎

If you are in the state of feeling as if "the universe is always against you" and "life is difficult for you", you will often experience "misfortunes" and situations to prove "life being difficult and unfair for you" in the outer world.

▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎

If you are in the state of feeling as if your life is always perfect and everything works out in your favor at all times, you will experience having an utterly perfect life in all aspects in the outer world.

Your state of consciousness is the sole cause of all phenomena in your reality because you are the creator.

Shifting states

"A change of circumstance happens as a result of a change in your state of consciousness." - Neville Goddard

It is essential for you to shift your inner state in order to embrace your infinite power as a creator with confidence and manifest your desires. There are infinite states because every possible state already exists. Once you change your state, the outer world changes to match your new state of consciousness because you are the operant power.

You have the freedom to choose whichever state you want to identify yourself as and persistently living in that new state of mind manifests the experiences you have in your reality. The entire outer world is molded by what you are conscious of being from within your state of mind. Shift into another state in order to experience a new reality with changed results. You can step into any state you want and when you persist in living in the new state of mind, the outer world will inevitably change to match the new state.

No matter what, you are always expressing a state. When you shift your state, you see the world differently and think from the mental attitude of already being the person you desire to be, no matter what it is you desire to realize or who you desire to be.

Your state manifests

Before I begin this next section, I need to clear up something very important. There's a lot of misinformation in this community about what truly manifests into your life on autopilot as creators. Everything in the outer world is manifested from your state, not your thoughts. It is solely your state that manifests. The world is entirely your state pushed out.

Thoughts are *only* an indicator of the state you currently hold, so you change your state instead of targeting the thoughts. It is absolutely pointless and a waste of time to worry about your thoughts when your thoughts are only revealing to you what state you are operating from. Your state is what is truly manifesting on autopilot and endlessly shaping your experiences in the outer world.

Everything you experience in your reality is entirely caused by the state of mind you hold. You can only experience that which you are conscious of being because you are the operant power.

The outside world is only a mirror magnifying what you are conscious of being from within your state. You are always manifesting on an endless repeat based entirely on your state of mind as the operant power of your reality and until you change your state and persist in a different one, you will forever manifest the same circumstances over and over again, endlessly.

When it comes to manifesting your desires, you sustain the state of the wish fulfilled and mentally embody the confident attitude and knowing of the person who has already achieved your desire. You persistently live in that bold mindset of brazen impudence and view your world from knowing your wish is fulfilled.

If you identify with the state of "desperately trying" to manifest your desire and doing everything you can to "get" it, you are dwelling in the state of lack. You are embodying the desperate mindset of somebody who has not achieved your desire and therefore, you will continue to manifest experiences to prove that you have not attained your desire. This sort of poor mindset is also an indicator that you are living and viewing from your world from the "victim" mentality instead of truly seeing yourself as the master of your reality.

If you truly knew and understood you are the sole creator of your own reality, you wouldn't be "struggling" or "desperately trying" to manifest your desires with frustration and you would know for certainty that you already have achieved your desire. Why? Simply for the fact that you are the master of your own reality and nothing is impossible for you as a creator.

If you identify with the state of the master mentality and you know with confidence because you are the God of your reality, you already possess your desire and you truly recognize your power to move mountains at your command. That's an indicator you are living in the confident state of knowing. You are in the confident state of recognizing that you have already achieved your desire. Persistence in this state of mind will allow you to manifest your desire in the outer world.

Are you conscious of desperately "trying" to manifest your desires with "failure" or are you the person who recognizes that you already possess your desires?

To shift into another state, decide what it is you want and switch into the mindset of being the person who already has your desire. If you want to manifest a record deal, you persist in and view the world from the mindset of somebody who has already made a record deal. If you want to manifest extravagant riches, you persist in and view the world from the mindset of somebody who has already attained insane amounts of wealth. You can absolutely manifest anything you desire but you must persist in the confident mindset of somebody who has already achieved your desire for it to come to fruition in the outside world.

Since you are the powerful God of your own reality, your whole entire life reflects your state of mind as a result and this includes all the beliefs, ideas, and assumptions you hold about yourself and the outer world. The outer world has no choice but to conform to your state and what you are conscious of being because you are the boss in charge and you are always creating your own reality solely based on your state of consciousness. Simply shift into a different state of mind to experience a whole new reality as a result.

Play of Life

Think of your life as a play.

You are the writer, the director, the star of the show, and a character within the play of life.

Let's go back to Neville's comparison between states and rooms in a mansion.

"Think of the world as containing an infinite number of states of consciousness from which it could be viewed. Think of these states as rooms or mansions (...) with infinite plots and dramas and situations already worked out but not activated. They are activated as soon as human imagination enters and fuses them."

You are free to play the role of absolutely any character you choose for your role in the play of life. There are an infinite amount of possibilities and you have infinite characters to choose from.

Let's say you are inside of a mansion with an infinite amount of rooms and each room holds a new character role for every possible situation. When you enter a room, you become that new character and you embody the new state. As soon as you enter a room, you become a whole new person and you take on the state of the new character you wish to play. When you choose the character role you want to take on and you persist in the state of the chosen character, you experience that character's beliefs and assumptions reflected back to you in the outer world. The state of the character you persist in embodying determines the experiences you go through in the play of life.

"You can move into many states and play many parts (...) When you are rich, you are the same actor as when you are poor. These are only different parts you are playing."

▪︎ If you choose to play a character who is in the state of being absolutely wanted and adored by everyone - your character will experience those beliefs and assumptions in the play of life.

▪︎ If you choose to a play a character who is in the state of being ignored, unwanted, and invisible to the eye of others - your character will experience those beliefs and assumptions in the play of life.

▪︎ If you choose to play a character who is in the state of being treated as royalty and worshiped by others - your character will experience those beliefs and assumptions in the play of life.

▪︎ If you choose to play a character who is in the state of being wealthy and free from financial worries - your character will experience those beliefs and assumptions in the play of life.

▪︎ If you choose to play a character who is in the state of always being the center of attention with a seductive Marilyn Monroe effect upon others - your character will experience those beliefs and assumptions in the play of life.

▪︎ If you choose to play a character who is in the state of being a mysterious and bewitching female fatale - your character will experience those beliefs and assumptions in the play of life.

Do you understand the point now?

The character you identify as directly goes back to your state of consciousness. The character you identify as in the play of life. Your current character role determines the experiences you have in the outside world because you are the master of your reality.

Ask yourself this: what character are you currently playing in the play of life?

▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎▪︎

▪︎ Examine your character role below:

How do you see yourself? - Is your character a "victim" of the world? Or a powerful master?

What is your character conscious of experiencing?

What does your character believe and assume about themselves?

What does your character believe and assume about the outer world?

Is your character conscious of struggling with money? Or is your character wealthy?

Is your character conscious of perfect health or is your character having health issues?

How is your character's relationships with others? Are there any patterns in how your character is treated by others?

Is your character desperately "trying" to manifest with little success? Or is your character confidently aware of already possessing the desire?

Is life easy for your character or is life always difficult?

Is your character wanted and adored by others or is your character unwanted and left in the dust?

Can your character manifest desires easily? Or does your character "struggle" with it?

Does everything always go wrong for your character? Or does everything always go right?

More About States From Neville:

▪︎ "Always expressing a state, you identify yourself with it by saying: I am poor or I am rich. I am known or I am unknown. I am wanted or I am unwanted."

▪︎ "You can change states morning, noon, and night, but the state to which you most constantly return constitutes your dwelling place."

▪︎ "You can satisfy self by appropriating the feeling that you are what you want to be. And this assumption though false, that is, although reason and senses deny it, if persisted in will harden into fact."

▪︎ "The state, the attitude of mind to which you most constantly return, constitutes your dwelling place. If you dwell in self-pity you will express the state."

▪︎ "The world and all within it are states of consciousness objectified. Your world is defined by your conception of yourself-"

▪︎ "There is no one to change but self; that self is simply your awareness, your consciousness and the world in which it lives is determined by the concept you hold of self. It is to consciousness that we must turn as to the only reality."

▪︎ "Health, wealth, beauty, and genius are not created; they are only manifested by the arrangement of your mind that is, by your concept of yourself, and your concept of yourself is all that you accept and consent to as true."

▪︎ "It is just as easy to possess the consciousness of having your desire, as it is to possess the consciousness of not having it. Get the consciousness first and the thing is compelled to appear."

The way you can make any famous celebrity fall in love with you and be your partner in a couple of days. You can have some random person send you $10 million dollars because they want to be nice. You could go to the grocery store and someone from vogue could see you and give you the biggest modeling job of the year. You can go to bed in your horrible home and wake up in a mansion with all your desires. You could look in the mirror and suddenly have fairy wings. THE LAW DOES NOT OPERATE ON LOGIC, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. IT DOESN’T HAVE TO TAKE LONG AT ALL, IT CAN TAKE A SECOND. YOU DECIDE HOW FAST THINGS HAPPEN FOR YOU. 🧚🏼‍♀️

• Tarot apps that give you a card pull for the day or let you do readings

•Apps that give you affirmations, guided meditations, etc. so you don’t have to search much for something to follow and get overwhelmed by choice.

•Drink sun or moon water, bonus if you add healing or energetic intent into it.

•If you need to cleanse and don’t have the energy, just let some incense burn, your oil diffuser run with cleansing oils, or take advantage of my personal favourite “lazy” option and let belongings cleanse on some selenite.

•We all know this but tea/coffee magic is great for when you’re low energy, especially since you’ll likely be drinking these for comfort anyway. If you don’t drink these don’t forget you can put intent into any food or drink, these are things you’re ingesting so you’re letting that intent go into you, think of ways to take advantage of that! (Bonus again for using sun/moon/etc water for drinks!)

•If you need to sleep but need to communicate with a deity/guide/etc invite them to communicate to you in your dreams. Take care of yourself first and let yourself rest but sometimes there’s moments where you need to talk to them and are struggling to find the energy.

•Simplify offerings to match your energy level, whether that’s saying you can’t give anything today, or finding something easy for you like a fresh glass of water, some herbs, whatever works with your needs.

•Audio books, podcasts, and youtube videos are great for when you want to learn but don’t have the brain power to read and research much, especially when you’re in an emotional rut vs. simply taking a few days off because you burnt yourself out. You can listen to these in bed, eyes closed, get those good feelings from being productive by learning more while not pushing yourself too far.

•Sigils are perfect low energy magic, even more so if you have sigils made ahead of time! Draw an energy sigil on you, put a pain-calming sigil under your pillow, a motivating sigil on your bath products to help you get through washing your face and/or brushing your teeth. Be mindful when using sigils off the internet that you don’t always know for sure what they’re made for, and it tends to work best when it’s your own. Using symbols like runes or bindrunes are also a great option if you want to play it safe but not make your own.

•rock. just pick the rocks you want in your pockets, on your bedside table. it’s pretty, it’s nice, they’re good fidgets, i don’t have to explain to other practitioners why crystals are great (coming from someone who barely uses them in their practice)

•Baths!! Baths aren’t as easy as a lot of people treat them, it’s totally okay to not have the energy to run a bath, especially if you want to wash out the tub a bit first, not have to deal with wet hair, all that. But if you can, it’s going to ease your body so much, use teabags you already have for simple herbs in the bath, water safe crystals, epsom salts are great for your muscles.

•Do some self love journaling, which is a great balance to doing shadow work. Look up self love journal prompts and go with whatever you can come up with things to write about.

•Music/sounds for everything! Youtube and other audio platforms are full of music and sounds that already are made with intention, or you can play intentionally to cleanse, protect, calm, bring joy, etc.

•Making online altar spaces or just collecting general fun inspiration, pinterest and tumblr are great for these!

•Sit outside, lay in the sun, watch the bugs, watch the weather, stare at the moon and stars.
