What can be done to make wishes come true?

Working with affirmations is like planting a crop. Only as seeds - your thoughts, and the harvest - fulfilled desires. But we must not forget that before you plant the seeds in the ground, it must be cleared of weeds, otherwise you will not see a rich harvest.

Therefore, before you start introducing positive attitudes into your life, you need to get rid of everything negative, superfluous, unnecessary. Everything that prevents you from moving forward, and desires to be fulfilled.

Watch a video on how to speed up the fulfillment of desires with affirmations:

What do we have to do:

Remember that the world is neither good nor bad - it simply reflects ourselves. Therefore, stop blaming anyone for your problems, look for the source of negativity only in yourself. When we don't like the reflection in the mirror, we change our facial expression. It doesn't occur to us to scold the mirror
When you do not like what is happening around you, do not get angry, do not be offended and do not scold your surroundings, but strive to change your thoughts
Get rid of fears, otherwise they will come true more often than desires. The universe does not care what to send you - be it joy or sorrow. She sends what you think about the most
Set the right goals. If you yourself do not know what you want, how will the Universe know about it?
Do the right karmic deeds. Give to others what you need yourself. Love, care, money (charity) and so on
Get rid of negativity: bad thoughts, emotions and feelings. They create a powerful block through which positive energy does not penetrate. If you are full of negative attitudes and thoughts, your desires will never come true easily.
Do not forget that a single flashed thought has no power. But the thought, repeated many times, has great power. Consider this both when you begin to read positive affirmations, and when you are fixated on problems.
The thoughts that are in your head give rise to certain energy radiations. Positive thoughts - positive radiation, negative - negative

Remember that your life is what you yourself have attracted. The world is mirrored, and like attracts like. Therefore, strive to radiate love, happiness, kindness and positive, then the Universe will begin to reciprocate and fulfill any of your desires.

Our thoughts work wonders. And if these thoughts are supported by words and pictures on paper, then desires begin to be fulfilled at lightning speed. A do-it-yourself feng shui wish card is quite easy to do. Let's look at all the details in more detail.

What it is

A do-it-yourself wish card or wish poster is the personification of our thoughts and desires, which are transferred to paper. Our Universe hears all our requests and is able to bring them to life! You can get through to the heavenly office faster with the help of a map, since the recorded thoughts work and come to life much faster.

Creation rules

A few of our tips will help you create the right message for your desires:

A do-it-yourself wish card can consist only of pictures, or maybe of pictures and text. Here the choice is yours.
All Wishlists must be written in present tense.

Wrong: I want a new job. I want a new car.

Right: I have a favorite job. I own a BMW car.

The more details the better. For the embodiment, try to describe your desire in the smallest detail. If you just ask for a “red car”, then they can bring you an old and battered red Cossack. And you wanted a BMW!

Incorrect: I have a good job.

That's right: I work as an editor of my own program on Channel One and receive 300,000 rubles a month.

Do not use the particles "not" and "without". The Universe does not perceive them and erases them. When you say "I don't want to be fat". The universe removes the "not" particle and interprets it like this: "I want to be fat."

Wrong: I don't want to cry over guys. I don't want a divorce. I do not want to be ill.

Right: I am happy and loved by my boyfriend/husband. I am healthy, my body is always in good shape, and my mood is in high spirits.

It's best to use your own photo. There should not be strangers on the wish card. When you ask for a new car, try to stick your photo next to it. Only in the marriage sector is a joint photo of you and your fiancé appropriate.
Ask for as many things as you need. If it is yours, it will definitely come to you.
The wish card has no expiration date. It can be done for a year, for two, for five years, and even for 10. It all depends on you.
What to do with a wish card when all wishes have come true? Give thanks for the work and just dispose of it.
A do-it-yourself wish card is made on whatman paper, on an A4 sheet. You can simply write down desires in a notebook or notebook. The wish card can also be electronic. If you own Paint or Photoshop, then feel free to create a new project of your future.
You can make a wish card simply in the Notes of your smartphone or download a special application. You can make a wish card on your phone using these applications:

vision board;
iWish.

Important areas

How to make a wish card with your own hands? It is important to remember that Feng Shui divides the space into several zones. These are 4 main sides (north, south, west, east) and 4 adjacent (northeast, southwest, northwest, southeast). Each of these sectors is responsible for a specific area of life. The wish card must be divided into zones and activated in a special way.

Western Sector of Creativity and Children

There is no limit to the imagination in this zone. After all, a do-it-yourself wish card is very simple. It is better to leave the background white or make it silver. If you are a creative person, then decorate this area in a way that only you can. If you are drawing, then draw something cute and original there. If you are sewing or knitting, then stick pictures of your tool materials. For singing people, you can put an image of a microphone, notes or musical instruments. If you are an actor, then it would be appropriate to place a stage, a harp or two masks here.

Suitable affirmations:

My child loves me very much, and I love him even more every day.

The Zone of Knowledge and Wisdom turns brown or dark orange. Before posting something here, think: what kind of knowledge would you like to get? Someone is fond of physics, someone makes chemical experiments, someone is interested in geography, and someone is fond of the occult sciences.

Images of books, globes, secret formulas or signs can be pasted here. Make a list of works that you would like to read or watch and leave it in the wish card. You can read more about it in our article.

North Sector Careers

The Feng Shui Career Zone is colored blue. Here you need to have everything that you dream about. If you want to become a colonel, draw shoulder straps. If you want to win some kind of competition, then draw yourself on the pedestal as a winner. If you want to work for Gazprom, stick on the company badge and sign your position.

Do not ask too much at once, otherwise the desires will not come true. Start wishing for a step in your career a little higher than the one you currently stand on. Each time you rise, simply indicate a new position in a new wish card. More about here.

Did you know that Polina Gagarina visualized 2nd place at Eurovision 2015? Just before the competition, she and her husband made a wish card, in which the singer prophesied 2nd place for herself and indicated those countries that would give Russia 12 points.

A gray or silver hue characterizes the Helpers and Journeys zone. If you have any individuals whose support you want to enlist, or idols who inspire you, then feel free to post their image here.

Text by Alina Gess

The Universe fulfills our desires, if it is right to tell her about them, - says Alina Gess, motivator, blogger. She told Womenbz readers how to make a Wish Map - one of the main visualization tools. We propose to put aside our “Plans and Tasks for 2018” for the time being and dream as much as we can.

“Now I have a wonderful life. Husband and two Christmas kids. The daughter was born on January 7, 2009, and the son was born on December 25, 2014. Moreover, even the birth time of children is the same! And this is not an accident. These are my wishes that came true. There are many such stories in my life, below I will tell about some more.

Alina Hess. Personal history

My life has not always been smooth sailing. But it was the difficulties that prompted me to search for new knowledge that would help me correct the situation. The desire for self-development played a huge role. Since childhood, I loved books: I read everything that fell into my hands. That's how I got my first books on positive thinking - I was 18 years old. I thought maybe that was the key to the solution. Therefore, I began to study new literature, tried various techniques on myself that allowed me to fulfill desires and change reality for the better. She was glad when it worked, and tried to figure it out if something didn’t work out. It was not easy to get into it, but it was interesting.

Then for many years I attended various seminars and trainings, plunging deeper and deeper into this knowledge. And in the end, I put together my own step-by-step system for managing my desires.

Alina Hess

What is a Wish Map

Our subconscious creates our reality. It is it that conveys our desires to the Universe. Often the subconscious interprets our desires in its own way and transmits not at all what we need. But this process can be managed. To do this, you need to learn how to correctly formulate your request.

Over and over again, I am convinced that the Wish Map helps the best in this. It is a kind of basis with our "Wishlist" in the form of pictures. With its help, visual images are created - the subconscious remembers them well.

The Wish Card has its own rules. And I will tell about them.

From the personal archive of the heroine

What wishes does the card fulfill?

Be very responsible in shaping your desires. On the Internet you can find a lot of "fashionable" cards with yachts and palaces pasted on them. Don't stick it on your card just because you think it's pretty.

Desires that you make not from the heart will either not come true at all, or will come true, but not with you or not in the way you wanted.

Therefore, always listen to your soul, make sure that your desires cause you exclusively pleasant emotions, and not a feeling of discomfort.

In this technique, a very important component is your energy, with which you fill and charge your desires. You radiate this energy when you select pictures, then place them, look at them. It is very important! Therefore, I do not recommend making an electronic map.

How to make a wish card

The Wish Map includes 9 equal sectors.

Each sector is related to a certain area, so it is very important to respect the boundaries.

I suggest choosing pictures on the Internet and printing them on photo paper, and not cutting them out of magazines. It looks very neat and beautiful, it is possible to adjust all the pictures to one scale, and also choose from the whole variety exactly what suits and resonates within you.

9 sectors of the Wish Map

Map Center - "Health Sector"

In this sector, right in the center, we place our photo.

Most importantly, the photo should evoke joyful emotions in you! In no case do not take photos from sad events or moments when you felt unhappy.

Further in the same sector, along the perimeter of the photo, we place all the pictures related to health, sports, beauty. Do you dream of a beautiful snow-white smile, a toned athletic body, and good health? Find relevant pictures and place them next to your photo. How it should look, see below.

My example. I always wanted to pay enough attention to sports, but the gym never attracted me, and group fitness did not bring the desired result. I wanted to try my hand at yoga, but it was not clear where and to whom to go. I posted my wish on the board. Less than a month later, I won a monthly yoga membership. So I found a suitable group for myself and still continue to study.

Upper right sector - "Sector of love and relationships"

If you are looking for:

Pick up pictures of happy couples in love, you can just have a photo (of a stranger to you!) Of the person you would like your future companion (companion) to be like.
Do not paste in this sector a photo of a real person that you like, but you do not know if he likes you. And in general, if you paste someone real, then only with his consent, or if this is your spouse, with whom you have been married for a long time.
If in reality there is already a person for whom you feel sympathy, but for some reason you cannot say about it, then paste a photo of someone similar and, for example, from the back.

If you already have a partner:

Add photos of happy moments together to this sector.
Also, any pictures symbolizing love and harmony are suitable for this sector: hearts, flowers, a pair of swans or doves.

Middle right sector - "Sector of children and creativity"

An important rule: we paste pictures of children here only if you want to have more of them. If you have a child and you are not planning any more children, you do not need to glue either your own or someone else's child.

If, for example, you have a son and you dream of a daughter, then glue a picture of a little girl in this sector, you don’t need to glue your son there at all.

Everything related to creativity also belongs to this sector.

Maybe you dream of learning to sew, knit, embroider. Or learn to take pictures. Or learn to play the guitar/dance/make origami/stand on your head. All these desires can be glued to this sector.

3 completed sectors of the Wish Map

Lower right sector - "Sector of assistants and travel"

In this sector, you can break away and let your imagination run wild. Stick here all the places you dream of visiting, even if they seem unattainable to you at the moment.

Since it is also called the "Sector of Helpers", you can stick a photo of your friends (for example, if you want to meet more often or dream of a trip somewhere together). If you do not have friends and you would like to have them, pictures of friendly companies, joint hobbies, trips can help you.

Also in this sector you can stick a photo of the group whose concert you want to attend. Or a photo of a person who inspires you, your mentor. If you dream of moving to another country, then select a picture of the country you are interested in and glue it to this sector, signing something like this: I moved permanently to the country I dream of.

My example. When I was making my first Wish Map, I came across a photo of a beautiful cruise ship in a magazine. This photo caught my attention so much that I decided to add it to the Travel Sector. I hid the map in an inaccessible place and forgot to think about the photo of the liner. A few months later, my husband and I received an invitation to go on a cruise!

The most amazing thing is that on my Wish Card in the same place, in the "Travel Sector", the Roman Colosseum was pasted. And our cruise started in Rome!

Alina Gess with her husband on a trip

Lower central sector - "Career sector"

In this sector we place everything related to work or business. Career growth, sales growth, profit growth, salary increase - do not be modest, make all your dreams into real goals.

If you dream of opening your own business, decide on a theme and select pictures that symbolize this activity.
If you already have a business and want to develop it, choose pictures that show the growth of customers and sales. For example, you have a clothing store. You can stick a picture with a shop window, and next to it is a queue. You can sign something like this: every day more and more clients come to me.

Lower left sector - "Knowledge sector"

This sector symbolizes any knowledge, whether it is getting an education, attending any courses or just personal growth, spiritual development.

If you are still studying or dreaming of enrolling, you can stick a picture with the desired diploma or a photo of the educational institution where you want to study.

Also, maybe you have been dreaming of learning a language for a long time, then you can safely stick a picture of language courses.

Maybe you want to learn how to drive a car and pass on the rights, this also applies to this sector.

If you don’t want any knowledge for yourself, maybe you have such wishes for your child? Then select the appropriate pictures and sign them with the wording of the following content: I am glad that my child is making progress in school; I am glad that my child successfully entered / defended his diploma / received his rights.

6 completed sectors of the Wish Map

Middle left sector - "Family sector"

In this sector, you can glue photos of your children, husband and other family members, including pets.

Choose pictures that reflect happiness and harmony.

If you do not yet have your own family, select pictures of the family that you would like to have.

Also, everything related to housing for you and your family is suitable here: apartment, house or cottage; furniture, repairs, interior items, pets that you dream of - all here, in the family sector.

Upper left sector - "Wealth sector"

Let me tell you right now that you don't have to put it on here.

Please avoid all those enticing photos of suitcases of money, chests of gold and so on. Don't take this sector so literally!

If you really want to stick a pack of money or a hand with money, be sure to sign such pictures, because the interpretation can be ambiguous: both that you are given money and that you give it away.

You can paste here the desire to receive a bonus at work, a salary increase or profit from a business. As well as any material values: cars, jewelry, phones, household appliances, electronics, wardrobe items and so on.

Upper Central Sector - "Sector of Glory"

My example. My brother, who works as a chef, posted in this sector his desire to act in a film, and after a short time, Channel One invited him to shoot a series of documentaries.

One more example. Thanks to my brother, one day, without my knowledge, another wish of mine came true. He sent my photos in a bathing suit to the competition of a well-known men's magazine. And I got into a hundred, whose photos were printed in a magazine. Only after some time I saw a picture with a magazine in my Map.

9 completed sectors of the Wish Map

A few more important points

Make sure that none of your sectors is empty. This disrupts harmony and creates an imbalance that will lead to problems in various areas.

Sectors should not overlap, and desires should not be placed in several sectors at the same time.

Since the Map is a Feng Shui tool, it must be done on the right days. The best period of the year is considered to be 2 weeks after the Chinese New Year, which will be February 16th. But if you missed this period, then the period of the growing moon is also considered auspicious days.

The map is best placed away from prying eyes. Everyone has their own energy, and it will not be very good for your desires if someone rewards them with their evil energy.

The validity of the Wish Card is on average 1-3 years. If your Card has worked, you can replace it with a new one, but with one important condition: You can only have one Card.

Wish Card Activation

After you have finished issuing your Card, you need to activate it!

To do this, you post a photo of any symbolic desire that you can fulfill yourself and in a short time. For example: buy yourself ice cream, go to the cinema, meet a friend. As soon as you fulfill your desire, your Map begins to work!

How to make a Wish Map

Recently, various services have appeared that offer to make you a Wish Map according to your wishes. I really don't recommend you do this. Indeed, in this technique, a very important component is your energy, with which you fill and charge your desires. You radiate this energy when you select pictures, then place them, look at them. And this is very important!

Option 1: on whatman paper

Most often, a wish card is made on whatman paper. At your disposal is a large area of paper, which is easily divided into 9 sectors and allows you to place any desires so that they do not interfere with each other.

Pictures can be cut out of magazines, drawn or taken on the Internet and printed at the nearest printing house. The most interesting thing is to take pictures from the Internet, because there are a lot of them and everyone can find something of their own, plus you can easily adjust the size of the pictures to fit them all on whatman paper.

Option 3: on paper with paints

For the most creative and assiduous, there is a more difficult task. You can draw your own Wish Map. Pencils, paints, crayons are at your disposal. You can reflect all your dreams with the help of drawings, or choose one and put your whole soul into its image.

Setting the right goals is an important step towards success. In order not to be a mere passenger in life, you need to learn to understand what you want to achieve from life and what will make you a happier person.

There are various methods for practicing goal setting. One of the most popular techniques is the mapping of desires. Its essence is to visualize your desires on a piece of paper. This helps to think well about your plans and aspirations and bring them closer to you psychologically and spiritually. At the heart of the map of desires are psychological laws and laws.

How to make a wish map?

In order for the wish card to be not just a collage, but a working tool, when compiling it, you must adhere to some rules:

if an individual card is drawn up, then it is necessary to do it yourself, without anyone's help and participation;
a wish card must be made with your own hands, and not drawn on the Internet. In this way, more creative energy can be attracted;
during the preparation of the map, nothing should be distracting;
you can turn on quiet pleasant music;
a wish card is best done on a growing moon or on auspicious days. These days are considered 15 days from the birthday and the period from the New Year to the Chinese New Year. In addition, every 5th, 8th, 10th and 11th day of the month are considered auspicious;
Before you draw a map of desires, you need to decide on goals. First, write them down on a piece of paper. Goals should be formulated in a positive way. For example, one should write “I want to be responsible” instead of “I want to stop being irresponsible”;
you should write goals from different areas of your life - this will help bring order and harmony to life;
the map can be drawn up for a year, or short-term projects can be done;
the card must be done in a good mood and cheerful mood;
to draw up a map of desires, you can use pictures from various magazines and brochures. In addition, you can find pictures on the Internet and print them on a color printer;
for each goal, you need to find a suitable picture and write the corresponding goal on the reverse side;
in the center of the wish card, you need to place your portrait in a positive way;
around the portrait, you need to place pictures that visualize desires. However, it must be borne in mind that the wish map is made by sectors. Each piece of the field is responsible for a certain part of life.

How to work with a wish card?

A ready-made wish map is a tool that will help bring the desired events closer. Therefore, the map must be kept in sight. Sometimes it’s worth paying attention to it, carefully examining all the pictures, feeling how much you are striving to achieve your goal.

Since the wish card is a personal vision, it should not be put on public display. Your family members can see it, but you should not show it to those who come to your house.

Affirmations for the wish card

Each wish card must be accompanied by one or more affirmations. They will help you succinctly state what you want to achieve. You can take someone else's, or you can make your own.

Examples of affirmations for a wish card:

Thanks to the map of desires, you can achieve great heights in life and get more pleasure from life.
