The Power of 30 Days: What to Do After You Set Your Intentions
Most people write intentions on a New Moon and then never look at them again until the next one. That is the part that is costing you.
A few weeks ago I told you that an intention is not a wish you send out, it is an instruction you send in. This is the other half. What happens in the thirty days after you write it, and why that window is the whole practice.
I walk you through how I actually build a vision: the kitchen, the light, the clothes I pick out, the conversation with my partner, the number on the screen. Then the part almost nobody teaches, which is that all of those details exist to evoke one feeling, and the feeling is what you stay attached to. The details can change. They often do. The feeling is what you are manifesting.
Then we get into the thirty days. New Moon to New Moon is about thirty days, and that is also the window where behavior changes and habits form. Your brain runs on what is familiar because familiar is cheap and safe, and changing it costs real energy, so it will not change unless you tell it to. Reading your vision every day from a regulated state is how you tell it. You are directing your attention, which means your brain starts flagging the opportunities that match instead of letting them slide past.
The New Moon in Libra arrives Saturday, October 10, at 8:50 AM PT, at seventeen degrees. Write it tomorrow. Then do not forget about it.
