Enhance Creative Expression with Garnet

Found in mineral deposits scattered across the globe, garnet ranges in color depending on the location in which it is mined. From colorless to rare blue, its most popular shade is a deep maroon. Closely resembling a seed of a pomegranate, garnet is referred to in Latin as “granatus” meaning seed or grain. Dating back to the Bronze Age, 3000 B.C., it is one of the oldest known stones in human history influencing Greek mythology, Egyptian, Biblical and Medieval history.

One of garnets most popular legends dates back to the story of Noah’s Ark. It was said that Noah used large pieces of garnet to illuminate the interior and path of the Ark. As a result, garnet has since been a popular stone carried amongst travelers to ensure safety and guidance throughout their journeys.

Garnet has a detailed history in use and lore. One of its most interesting uses was by the tribal Indians in Kashmir. They fashioned it into bullets and fired them at invading British armies. Today garnet is widely used in jewelry for its brilliance. For its durability, it is used as an alternative to sand in the abrasive industry. Its molecular composition and hardness allows it to be efficiently recycled while cutting down on the amount of dust and waste that is produced when smoothing and grinding other material items

On an energetic level, the glowing luminescence of garnet awakens one to their inherent creative forces. The process of becoming aware of one’s creative potential, sparks passion within the self. A symbol of the strengthening effects of light, truth and faith, garnet activates the vitality of life force energy at a root level. As creative expression ignites, the body is energized. This vital flow of energy motivates one to commit to the implementation of inspirational ideas through physical action.

When passion to create is aroused, garnet illumines the path to one’s purpose. Its inner glow is symbolic of our desire to create according to our deepest needs. One is drawn to garnet like a glowing warm fire. It nurtures and rejuvenates. Garnet’s loving devotion creates a magnetic force that causes a strong attraction to whatever one deliberately focuses their creative energy upon. As a result, instant healing and transformation occur.

A deep gratitude arises for the realization of one’s ability to deliberately create according to personal preference. Peace and calm enter the body, as one acquires the necessary patience that allows inspired action to manifest on all levels of BEING. As self-realization occurs, one grows and expands in their confidence to consciously direct creative expression into any area of their life. Miracles are created.

Wearing and consciously working with garnet activates powerful energies that will have one functioning at peak performance. One can always depend on garnet to light the way. Solutions and multiple pathways will always be revealed. Allow garnet to strengthen your relationship to yourself, your passion and purpose in life. One can always look to garnet for comfort and guidance as you create according to your deepest desires.

The Greatest Miracle

I created this Intentional Scrapbooking LO with the intent to strengthen the belief in the power of my mind. This month as we focus on creating miracles at Creating Intentions, it is time to turn our attention inward to strengthen and develop all that happens on the inside.

I recently came across this picture of my daughter taken a few days after her birth last December. As she just celebrated her first birthday, I was feeling grateful and appreciative that she was in my life. In cultivating these feelings, I realized that her presence on this earth is the greatest miracle! To be alive and to be able to experience physical sensations that life offers would not be possible without the presence of the subconscious mind.

Responsible for over 90 percent of our mental faculties, the subconscious processes over 400 billion bits of information in every second. It does this while directing and communicating all of our bodily functions such as breathing, the beating of the heart, circulating blood flow, cellular regeneration, and many other functions. Within our subconscious mind lies an infinite source of creative intelligence that also gives shape and form to this entire universe. Creative intelligence carries us from the time of conception until it is our time to leave the earth. It is accessible within the depths of our inner mind always lying in wait and ready to be harnessed and directed at any time.

Creating this LO, I focused thoughts of trust, faith and belief in my subconscious mind to clearly receive and implement all future direction that I impress upon it. It is sort of like priming the pump so that any and all future intentions will be launched with a turbo boost. When thoughts and emotions are backed by the energizing power of belief, a powerful magnetic force is created that will attract like thoughts, events, opportunities and people into one’s life.

As a direct result from creating this month’s Intentional Scrapbooking Kit™ “Miracles Happen” and this LO, incredible shift happened in my life. It is amazing how strong and firm my belief has amplified in my ability to create anything that I can imagine for myself. As a direct result, I feel a new found sense of peace and comfort that miracles are happening in my life NOW as a result of my focused positive thinking. Every day I receive signs from all over that confirm that I am attracting what I am voluntarily programming into my consciousness. I am so grateful to be equipped with this wonderful source of unlimited potential!

Easily Create Miracles in Your Life

Many people today are aware of the incredible power of the mind. It is comforting to know that we possess an inherent ability to create whatever we set our mind to. Every one of us has the capacity to tap into this inner resource at will, yet many still do not fully understand how to successfully harness it or where to begin when intending change. The question is how do we effectively co-create with this facet of our consciousness to achieve the results we desire?

The answer lies in the awareness of one’s thoughts and feelings. Consistently thinking the same thought over and over sends a strong message to the subconscious mind. Repetitious thinking eventually brings one to arrive at the conclusion that they are to receive whatever they have convinced themselves of. Belief is created and that belief is handed over to the subconscious mind. Each time a new belief is formed, it becomes the basis from which our subconscious mind executes all future action.

Belief is a powerful state of mind induced through repeated suggestion. Our beliefs energize our thoughts. When belief backs one’s thoughts, a strong magnetic force is created within the mind. This magnetic field attracts more thoughts that are similar in nature and equivalent physical experiences.

Many of our existing beliefs are formed unconsciously from the time of our birth. Our consciousness operates unbeknownst to us from these core beliefs. The great news is that we can rewrite our beliefs at any given point in time through intention setting and repeated suggestion.

Creating new beliefs through repetition of affirmative orders can make the Law of Attraction work for anyone. When intending to create change or transformation in any area of life, it is important to find the best feeling and most positively stated words to describe the desired outcome that one is seeking. Deliberately repeating desired thought patterns throughout the day allows one’s new way of thinking to dominate the mind. Time for some more good news... as your new thought patterns begin to dominate your mentality, it becomes habit. This means that your desired way of thinking automatically surfaces into your waking mentality, making it EASY for you to focus on what you truly want in life!

Implementing new beliefs through repeated suggestion does require a certain degree of disciplined effort, but it can be FUN and EASY and the reward is well worth it. Imagine experiencing sustainable thoughts and feelings of sheer happiness and well-being! It is an amazing experience to be filled with positive energy as a reward for time well spent.

Belief is the starting point from which all miracles are created. Without belief, one cannot create or attract the things they desire. Belief needs to be present when intending to create desired results, for it is the fuel that backs every thought. Since one creates successful outcomes according to their level of belief, focusing on raising belief in the power of mind will boost ones ability to create and attract desired results with greater accuracy. The following are some effective ways to strengthen belief:

• Deliberately suggest to your subconscious mind through repeated affirmative orders, your belief in its ability to attract to you the physical equivalent of the directed thought you impress upon it. Time must be spent each day directly communicating to your inner mind of your belief in its abilities. Engage the imagination for effective communication of your heartfelt thoughts in the form of words, images and aroused emotion.
• An English Proverb states “the eyes are the window to the soul”. Find a mirror, look directly into your eyes and speak out loud to the depths of your soul, where your deep inner mind resides. Speak of your admiration, love, respect, and appreciation of its worth. This is a very powerful technique. It will stir great emotion from the depths of your BEING.
• Intentionally arouse positive supporting emotions when repeating affirmations. All thought is birthed into existed by an emotional state. Strive to hold positive emotions of well-being as much as possible. Emotions are our internal guidance system. We sense through emotional well-being how aligned we are to our higher selves or source energy.
• Focus your desired intent of strengthening belief through the Intentional Scrapbooking Method™ to anchor your thoughts into physical shape and form. Taking the time to focus your intent in this way expresses commitment to your desired goal. This process aligns all four levels of BEING which strongly imprints the subconscious mind and activates the Law of Attraction. Your desires will only manifest as a result!

Strengthening belief in the power of mind will have you creating and attracting all the things you truly desire in life with ease and effortlessness. The journey of self-discovery is a process of becoming. It is on-going. Once a desired goal is fulfilled, one will always uncover more desires that serve to grow and expand the self to new heights. Believe in yourself, the creative potential of your thoughts and the power of your subconscious mind. Belief is the starting point from which all miracles happen. Believe in believing.
