Comments on: Intuitive “Malfunction?” http://www.empoweredsoul.com/2008/01/intuitive-malfunction/ Abundance Through Transformational Consciousness Fri, 17 May 2013 04:28:08 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Andrea Hess http://www.empoweredsoul.com/2008/01/intuitive-malfunction/comment-page-1/#comment-1300 Andrea Hess Mon, 04 Feb 2008 01:56:56 +0000 http://www.empoweredsoul.com/blog/?p=173#comment-1300 Pat - it's a wonderful question! There's a two-part answer, really. The first is that our Higher Self will always lead us to the path that aligns with our highest path and purpose ... and that path is designed for our optimum growth and learning based on wherever we are now. So, if we've been reluctant to address an issue or learn a lesson, our highest path and purpose may well include getting tapped on the shoulder ... and if that doesn't work, getting smacked upside the head with a big stick. Now, before that happens, we are usually afforded many opportunities to address the lessons in other ways. The second is that, when we find something that resonates really strongly, such as a job or a relationship, we say: "Aha! This is IT!" And we become attached to having found THE job or THE relationship, when in reality they are just designed to serve us right now. The job or relationship that served us six months ago may not serve us today ... but we have crossed it off our list, we are no longer paying attention in this area. And so we are brilliantly given a big shove by Spirit to move on! Which is really far more desirable than a slow deterioration within a situation that doesn't serve us ... There are, of course, sometimes blocks and restrictions present that also can lead to repeated manifesting of the same old situations over and over ... but barring that, the above two examples might apply. Thanks for the awesome question (I loved the post, too!) Blessings, Andrea Pat – it’s a wonderful question! There’s a two-part answer, really.

I could relate to the commenter with the job interview and I agree with your response. I have a question, however, what do you do when you get the job and you think you're in tune and then out of the blue it turns totally the opposite leaving you speechless. I recently wrote a post called <a>Thoughts Will Either Lift You Up Or...Do You In</a> sharing a personal experience I recently had. I think my experience had more to do with healing issues as Marianne Williamson explains in her book "Age of Miracles" and the Universe was presenting another event to give me a chance to truly heal this time. What do you think? I'm still wondering about it. Andrea – I’m just catching up on posts that have been sent to me and I read this one.

I think the popularity of the Law of Attraction has actually done us a bit of a disservice in a way ... I mean, we set our intentions and now expect exactly what we intended. But it is limiting to insist on our expectation, and we might actually miss the many, many ways the Universe returns the energy of our intention into our lives. And, let's face it, the Universe usually comes up with something way, way better than what we could have imagined! Thanks for reading and commenting! Blessings, Andrea Thank you, Ryan!

I do not think I have ever heard anybody put that kind of twist on the Law of Attraction. Wow, thank you so much for this blog entry.
