The Power of Intention

“Intention is the moment your inner power chooses a direction.” — Sage

Dear Ones,

In our first years on planet Earth, no one really told us how powerful we truly are. The reason is not that “they” didn’t want us to know, but because the well-meaning first adults forgot about their own power too. Now, here we are, awakening to our innate power — all of us at different stages of awakening — and naturally we start truly treasuring it and perhaps asking ourselves where to direct it.

The power of our true infinite nature is harnessed through our focus. The image I am receiving as I write to you today is an archer focusing on the target. If she wants to reach the black circle in the middle, she has to be still, relaxed and at the same time focused, and then, when the time is right, release the string to send the arrow forward.

The focus is at the centre of this, coming from a calm, steady posture. If the archer is not grounded and focused enough and allows the arrows to go in any direction, the game can be not only frustrating but also potentially dangerous.

And so for us on a spiritual journey of awakening, there is a unique divine moment when we start seeing with such clarity the immense power of our thoughts and our beliefs. We can — perhaps for the first time — see so clearly how powerful a pure positive thought can be and what it can manifest in our everyday life. By a pure positive thought, I mean a clear thought or intention not contradicted by any doubts, resistance or opposite thoughts. A thought deeply aligned with our truth and not held back by any false negative beliefs. That kind of arrow has a beautiful, clear trajectory and hits the target right in the middle. Every single time.

And so my writing to you today is an invitation to play this divine game of archery and see for yourself what your pure positive thought or intention can do in your life. You could start by writing down one of your intentions. This is your inner yes, and when you write it down, see if the mind offers any inner no’s, any objections to your intention.

And this time you could actually do something different. Instead of seamlessly going with the thoughts of doubt or disbelief, you could question them, see if they are actually true and finally release them. No longer giving the immense power of your divine presence to false limiting beliefs, no longer continuing to manifest what you no longer want in your life. Perhaps this time you could allow yourself to align fully with the arrow and allow it to hit the target effortlessly. Wouldn’t that be much more fun than missing it again?

Are you ready, dearest One?

If you feel inspired to take this further, join us for this week’s meditation.

Lots of love,
