When do you let go of your visualization?

[mallie]

Hey everyone,

I was just wondering how do you know when to let go of something you are visualizing (esp if it is really big) ?

Do you keep visualizing it until it appears? The problem is, what if your manifestation has divine timing on it and it is not supposed to manifest for another year or longer? There is no way I can keep up the great, joyful energy I have visualizing this thing now for another year or so.

If you are supposed to visualize for a specified amount of time, when do you know it is time to release it to the Universe so that it can come to you?

That's a very good question and I'm not sure I have an answer for you. In the past, with my visualizing, I just kept going until my goal showed up. But I do understand what you mean, when you say you don't have the energy to keep going for a whole year. I never visualized for a long time, like a year or so, and don't know if there is a "set time" to stop or whatever.... I'll think I'll do some searches on the internet and see what I can find.

Stop visualizing when you lose the motivation to. Then just trust that you've put all the effort needed into it and relax and wait for it to come. These things have their own logic to them, best to let your subconscious handle it rather than demanding to have conscious control over the process.

Yeah, that's what I do, now....It keeps me in the moment, and there are times when my family comes in with their realistic crap and when I react, I find it amazing how I'm just able to shrug it off as if nothing ever happened...

It happened to me last night and I was like, wow! OK. And I went about my day like nothing happened...

At the moment I’m trying a method where I’m visualizing until I get so sick of it that I no longer have any ‘desire’ for the thing I’m visualizing. When I look back at all of my manifestation…intentional or not…they have almost always manifested this way. I’m one of those people who cling to the outcome so if I only visualize a few times and then try to let it go, I can’t. When I visualize so much that I don’t want to even think about the thing I’m visualizing anymore it usually manifests. I guess this is because the desire is taken away and I'm letting it come to me

Hi, Mallie:

The theory of adopting a posture of detachment over one's visualization of an intended manifestation is to demonstrate to the Universe that one is not obsessing over the arrival of the manifestation. The theory goes that obsessing over the arrival of the manifestation--taking the Universe's temperature over and over again--signals to the Universe that one is beginning to doubt the arrival will ever come. Then, that doubt becomes the dominant mental impression one radiates outward, manifesting the counterpart to doubt, which frequently is the non-arrival or delay of the manifestation, depending on the circumstances and the strength of the doubt.

However, not all re-living of a visualization is born of nagging doubt. Let me give you an example. I have a visualization of a private island I own in a different dimension, I named it Willis Island. Now, I visualize having fun on that island all the time. I will never run out of joy in partaking in that visualization. I am not simply visualizing "getting the island," but the activities that occur on Willis Island, which change over time, through different seasons. Never once have I doubted that Willis Island will break down the barriers to this dimension--it is making its way to me right now! I still visualize all the time how much fun I have in that tropical paradise! I see it this way: I know it will arrive, and I am not visualizing it any more for the "purpose" of manifesting it, per se. I visualize it because I love it, and want to be near it and on it, all the time. Together, we have great fun, Willis Island and I do! Since my lovely manifestation is arriving in my dimension, according to its timetable, I don't let that separate us. So, I choose to arrive in Willis Island's dimension according to my timetable, which is now, and several days a week! I am showing love and respect for Willis Island, to not let simple mechanical laws governing the separation of dimensions come between us. I am committed to Willis Island, and I don't begrudge it for not yet being here in this dimension.

So I would ask you: how do you feel, when you partake of your visualization? If you feel wonderful, as I do, then why stop? In fact, I think an artificial stopping, out of fear that one is not "detaching" correctly, also can send a signal of doubt to the Universe. It's like saying, "they told me not to do this, or else I will block the manifestation of my intention because they told me that I have to do something else, called 'letting go and detaching,' or else, I will be demonstrating to the Universe a sort of obsessive-compulsive disorder regarding my intended-visualization. That's what they told me. They must know something about me and my manifestation that I don't. Oh, darn..."

After a while, one could obsess about the prospect of obsessing. However, your feelings will not betray you. They will tell you whether your dominant mental impression is in or out of vibrational harmony with the manifestation of your intention. If you feel bored, listless, tired, impatient, sad, angry, disillusioned, embarrassed--any of the negative feelings, then you probably could benefit from dropping the visualization and "just trusting" the Universe. If, however, you feel as I do: enthused, animated, and happy, then you could probably benefit from continuing to partake in your bliss.

I think too much is made of "rules," that may work for some people, but not others. I say trust your instinct and "go with the flow," as Abraham was fond of instructing us to do (i.e., paddle down stream, not upstream). Now, if you're not sure, then just ask your unconscious mind to give you a sign or an answer.

It all worked out beautifully for you! You're awesome!

Hi Balbrae,

Thanks so much for your answer! Right now the visualization still feels great (I have been visualizing this for 2 months now) and there is still a lot of joy and even tears of joy that this thing I want really badly has manifested in my mind - but when the energy disapates and it becomes a source of resistance, then I will let it go and realize that sufficient energy has been given to the manifestation.

You must have read my mind because I was going to ask God and the angels to send me a sign when it is time to let go of my visualization and just trust that it is on its way.

Thanks everyone for your answers - they were very helpful!

Hi Mallie, how are you? Off topic sorry, but are you still having Theta healing? If so how's it going? Maybe you could post? It was recommended to me today as I seem to be stuck with a thought pattern I can't change, could be a 'former life' issue. I didn't even believe in past lives until I came to this forum, so could be a bit strange for me. Interested in any feedback you may have and if anything (both internally and externally) has shifted for you? Thanks

Its exactly how things work for me... Sometimes I don't even feel a bit of charm when my desire has manifested.... I wish universal law was a bit more fast....

You are supposed to forget about it and allow the Universe to manifest it. This is hard to do, so when you find yourself thinking about it, give it some additional positive energy. I tend to manifest things when I have forgotten about them.

In other words, stop obsessing? True. I sure need to let it go some time...!
