THE SECRET BEHIND "THE SECRET"
The advice given by the blockbuster film "The Secret" (Rhonda Byrnes, 2006) is based on Universal Principles proposed long ago by ancient Hermetic wisdom. The film's speakers stress the importance of what they call the "Law of Attraction," which is actually a spin-off of the older Hermetic "Law of Cause and Effect." This age-old concept states that "All cause has an effect; all effect has its cause." It's interesting to note that both the scientists and mystics of today endorse this Principle, each in their own way, as its application produces results both in the material world and in the spiritual realm.
According to "The Secret" (and to Hermetic philosophy), every person attracts what they predominantly visualize or lets their mind linger on, be it that they want it to manifest in their life or not. "The Secret" also states that we can attract and become whatever we want, whenever we choose to do so. And here is where Astronica differs with the author of "The Secret."
Undoubtedly, the entire Universe is governed by a Supreme Intelligence or Creative Power, which always acts in accordance with Universal Principles. But not even Supreme Intelligence, with all its power, can act in a whimsical way. For example, when we look at the way Nature works, we see an orderly, rhythmic and evolving process, and not a haphazard or capricious behavior. In Nature, everything has a specific function and a particular moment to express it; everything has a purpose and a time to do it.
How many times have you decided to try to be successful at a certain type of enterprise, only to see that "something" insists on leading you toward another kind of undertaking?
How many times have you vehemently desired something, even expected to get it, only to discover that what you wanted just won't make its appearance, and thus, you give up on it?
So then, is it that the "Law of Cause and Effect" (the so-called "Law of Attraction") doesn't work? Or is it that you don't deserve to get what you want and so strongly focus on? Maybe it's just that you don't know how to use this Law...
Let me asure you that the Law works and, yes, you do deserve what you want. And you can get it, if you comply with Universal Principles. It is you who has to adapt to these Principles, and not believe in the childish advice that tells you that "the Universe will grant you whatever you want, whenever you want it." It just doesn't work that way.
The astronical theory sustains that each of us has an Ideal Occupation and a Purpose in Life. It also states that each of us has an ESSENCE (a Higher Self, the "Genie of The Lamp" referred to in "The Secret") that will guide and assist us in whatever it takes to accomplish our Ideal Occupation as well as our particular Purpose in Life.
Several experiments have determined that during our first 40 - 45 years of existence, our Essence tries to provide us with experiences and resources that allow us to express our Ideal Occupation, that is, toward the activity that will provide us with a decent livelihood. From that age on, our Essence will then try to lead us toward the expression of our Purpose in Life.
Please note that your Essence will always try to help you advance in the toward your Ideal Occupation and your Purpose in Life, by making good use of your inborn Attributes and Qualities. It's also important to know that your Essence only acts in harmony with natural (astronical) cycles. This means that if the ongoing influence favors a given theme or tendency, your Essence immediately takes it into consideration and acts accordingly. This highlights the importance of (a) knowing your Ideal Occupation, your personal Purpose in Life and your true Aptitudes and Skills, and (b) being aware of the present or future natural tendencies.
So then, if what you visualize can help your Essence carry out your Ideal Occupation or your Specific Function, the "Universe," or "The Genie of The Lamp," will help you get what you are focusing on. But, if what you hold in your mind does not favor the fulfilment of your Ideal Line of Work or your Life's Purpose, then your Essence, in compliance with Universal Principles, will not help you out.
EVERYTHING functions according to a very precise natural timetable. Astronica can give you the agenda of the "Genie" (your Essence) that tells you what and when to ask for it. This --and only this-- is what you can attract into your life at any given moment.
Allow Astronica's free resources to help you. For example, if you want to know your Ideal Occupation or your Purpose in Life, please read your Astronical Profile. To know what aspect of life to pay attention to right now, regarding your Ideal Occupation (Work/Job section) or your Purpose in Life (Today's Advice and Purpose in Life sections), please read the information given in the mentioned sections of your Astronical Page. And to find out what your "Genie" (your Essence) wants to give you today, read the Very Important section of the same Page.
Lastly, if you want to successfuly make use of the advice given by "The Secret" (and by the Hermetics), I invite you to do so taking into consideration the timetable given by the astronical resources. This is the foolproof way of getting what you want, in accordance with the way the Universe wants to give it to you.
