We expand skills by doing them, engaging in repetitive practice, both cognized and spontaneous, as ignited by your personal moments of living. The skill evolves as we invest in them, even adjusting and morphing into something previously unimagined. In a sense, everything has a life of its own…and it has an evolution that delivers oh, so much more.

In creating an expansive practice of internalizing a deep level of trust in the asking and receiving skills, we must include the ones that ignite at the point between present and future. As we open to using this celestial circle of engaging in manifestation it serves to educate us of its more advanced capacities. Something happens only when we choose to engage it. Thus we become the inventor of the now form. This knowing and skill transcends all of life and, though it is essential to become an in the flow manifestor, it is also is now one can maneuver the cosmic soup. More on this when we look into the manifesting process in Session A1-5 The Vibratory Nature of the Cosmos and What it All Means.

In the perfect state we ask without hesitation, expecting to receive without any doubt, that which we deserve and desire or that even more magnificent. We trust the flowing  circle that serves the Law. In the advanced state we have no connection between asking and self worth. We simply know that there is so much that serves us and often more than meets our personal eye, or knowledge of possibilities. We ask in the moment, almost like a reflex, because we want to engage the existing structure that is infallible. Though we may have a host of perspective resources to assist us, we trust more than not that the best one for the job will show up at just the right time. Sure, we can call upon Archangels, Ascended Masters, even, the Source, herself. Yet there is a playful sense of adventure to simply put the asking in motion and see what unfolds. Additionally, it is important that we choose to give away the request and surrender any attachment to the form of our intention. The Universe is very capable of outdoing us with the delivery design and form, often giving something that was not even considered or imagined. And likely it was your request that manufactured the perfect form to fill your desire.

Asking is purposeless unless we create and maintain the expectant atmosphere of receiving the right and perfect response to our request. Of course it shall arrive at just the right time. What is required of us is to participate in the reception process…and that means pay attention, especially to the nuances of the external, or the internal. Answers come in frequency forms that are often different than we thought we wanted. Focusing on a particular form can often cause us to miss the “so much better” manifestation that was brought in just for you. If you find that the delivery was not what you desired you can make another request, even asking for something more specific if you choose. But, what is even more effective is to have an air of being open to be surprised. This is a playful Cosmos and if, indeed, your Higher Self is orchestrating the ideal for you in person, experience, and object to support your remembering of the Real You, then your openness is a catalyst for a windfall, so to speak…

Asking/giving and receiving are the circle that makes physical the intention. The substance that lubricates the flow is Gratitude. The end result of receiving is the outflow of legitimate, heart felt gratitude to the source and all those involved. By doing so you grease the wheel and keep the cards and letters coming. Do not overlook this element as it is the juice…

So, knowing the elements it is time to practice and play:

1. Play a spontaneous game of asking for guidance and see what happens. Explore how responses come in, the forms, the style of delivery, the nature of the information, etc. Doing this will start to fine tune your own sensitivity receptors and direct your attention whenever you ask.
2. Look at the current issues in your life. Select three resources to approach (angel, archangel, ascended master, akashic source, Higher Self, power animal, Celestial Being, etc). One at a time present the issue and the request to each. Note the responses you receive as well as the way you receive it. Compare the resources and their responses. Here you can start to fine tune the reliability of your support and learn which will serve you with certain issues.
3. Consider a challenge someone in your life is having. Tune in and ask for guidance for them. See what happens. You can share it or not. If not, then consider sending a mental wash of the potential solution to them and see what happens. Here we are learning to be resources for one another and building the connections that will grow the seeds of Oneness.
4. Consider some world challenges, issues that impact many. Ask for guidance from as many resources as you choose. Ask for new approaches to the issues and see what comes. Pay attention to the all around you to see how the guidance drops in, billboards, titles, songs, conversations overheard, a movie, a tv show, a book, etc.
5. Spend a period of time simply receiving. Wherever your eyes land accept the gift and acknowledge how you might use it. Be sure to express gratitude for the gift to all that come to mind.
6. On a piece of paper ask for three guides to reveal themselves by name. Write down the first names that come to mind. Then, for each, ask them for a message. Allow a stream of consciousness writing of what each says. Go deeper by allowing them to respond using your non-dominant hand to write with.  Start to build your personal posse of guides. We will explore more of this in some Block C sessions.
