18 Nov 2022 · 20 min
Sahara Rose and Mia Magik discuss why your manifestations aren't working, focusing on alignment, healing blocks, and trusting divine timing. They blend personal stories with practical advice for getting unstuck in your spiritual practice.
Rejection is redirection and it is protection. So sometimes it's not working out for you because the universe knows some information that you do not yet know about. Hey hey. Welcome back to the Highest Self podcast, a place where we discuss what makes you your soul's highest evolvement. If it's your first time listening, welcome. My name is Sahara Rose and I'm all about making spirituality fun, grounded, joyful, relatable so you can actually implement it in your human reality. Who would have thought? So today's episode is a very special, spunky little one because it is straight from my YouTube series, Manifest yout Magic. So if you're not subscribed to me on YouTube, there's a whole other experience going on over there, so be sure to head over to YouTube.com sahararose I'll link that below as well. But I created this witchy little series with my friend Mia Magic, who is a real life witch, and we talk about manifesting all of these different things. And also, what does it mean if you're not manifesting the thing that you're calling in? Because, let's be real, sometimes you do the full moon ritual with the full moon water with the chakra aligned crystals with the visual and the oracle cards on the astrological date and all of the things, and you're like, wait, where is my abundance? Where is my soulmate? Where are the things I'm calling in? And in this episode we share why those things might not be showing up and how sometimes it's related to actually you not being in alignment with the things that you're calling in. And sometimes it's also divine timing and how to know and trust. So without further ado, let's tune into this episode straight for my Manifest yout Magic series. And before we get started, I have an announcement for you. So have you been on your spiritual journey for a while? But to be honest, you don't resonate with a lot of the practices like hours of seated meditation or reading all these really heady spiritual books. But instead you're craving something that invites the full you, that allows you to be radiant and beautiful and connecting with your intuition and womb wisdom. Well, I felt the exact same way on my spiritual journey. I went from spending hours doing really rigid Ashtanga yoga every year, where I actually lost my period for over two years and even went into perimenopause in my early twenties, into connecting back with my sacred feminine energy. And this is exactly what I share in my new course, Divine Feminine Embodiment. So this is really about dropping out of the mind and into the body. Because the truth is, a lot of the spiritual practice that we hear about right now really were created by men for men. And our culture is very masculine as well. It's very focused on productivity and hustle. And if you're ready to go beyond that and reclaiming your ease, your joy, your bliss, your juiciness, your daily dance, then this course is for you. So I discuss the different art forms of divine feminine wisdom, such as the art of magnetism, the art of embodiment, the art of ritual, and so much more. So this is also a really powerful entry point into stepping into deeper, sacred feminine work. I teach you my goddess embodiment practice, my goddess breathwork practice, and much more. So if you're interested and curious to learn more about what's inside, head over to Divine Feedback Feminine course dot com. Again, that's divine Feminine course dot com. You can find that link in the show notes. This month, the course is over 50% off as our special introductory price. So I highly recommend diving into it right now and beginning your sacred feminine immersion.
What's up, everyone? Welcome back to Manifest yout Magic and your most magical life. I'm Mia Magic.
And I'm Sahara Rose.
And today we wanted to share with you some of the really important elements to remember if your manifestation is not working. I know that it can be really triggering and we can get really freaked out and really worried and like, oh, my God, what's happening? I'm doing something wrong. And that is actually one of the most important things not to do as you're waiting for a manifestation to come to fruition.
So the first tip that we'd love to give you is when you're sitting with that thing, that thing that you've manifested, maybe it's a certain job or home or opportunity. Opportunity. And it hasn't happened yet. What is the story that you're making up about it? What are you making it believe say about you? So I would invite you right now to just take a moment and journal that what really shows up for you right now. But maybe you're creating stories of I'm not worthy of it, or someone else is better than me, or good things don't happen to me. So really pay attention to those stories because they're showing up for you for a reason. This is your opportunity to look at those stories that have actually been playing behind the scenes this whole time. But this opportunity is bringing them front and center. And it's only when we become very clear about them, are we able to release them? And also note, how are these stories showing up in other areas of my life? Because if you're playing a story of good things don't happen to me, I'm not worthy of success. I'm not someone that finds love. Chances are that story is repeating and repeating and repeating and manifesting situations to perpetuate that story, that very thing that you don't want. So take a moment right now to journal on what you are making this mean for yourself.
And as you complete this prompt and really are tuning in with the story that you're making up about this particular thing not coming or not happening yet when you do that, you really want to notice that there's a belief system under there. There is some kind of block that is creating that story that's making you believe that you can't have that thing or that it's not coming because you're not worthy. So the story is going to really show you what the underly belief is or at least lead you in the direction of it. And then once you look at the story, diving deeper into it and seeing, okay, where is this block Now? Depending on what type of energy system or what your other belief systems are, you can maybe use the chakras. Is this in my root chakra, my stability, the very red energy of my life, my safety and security? Maybe it's a block in your throat around your expression and not feeling safe to say or speak your truth. Any anything that you can, that you can figure out within yourself. You have an opportunity to then work with that block like Sahara said, see how it shows up in other areas of your life. Where are you blocking? Is it a block from receiving or maybe a block from showing up or like being in your giving energy the way that you share. There's so many different ways that we can watch and witness our blocks. And then the best thing you can do to support that manifestation is just work on healing that block is figuring out, okay, how can I, I shift this, open this change this bring pleasure to it, support it. That's one of the things that I've noticed for sure in my own manifestations and in my life is if I have a block, what does it need? There's some little broken part of me or some inner child wound that needs to be healed, that needs to be tended to. And so if you can find what that block needs, you can ask it. I always say doing channeled writings and writing to the block. I call upon the block in my throat, please write to me through me, anything I'm meant to receive in this moment, that is one of my greatest practices. It really allows you to communicate with different parts of your body and your soul, your energy body, in order to know what that thing needs from you. To feel supported, to feel safe, in order to heal itself so that you can be free from that block and be even closer to your manifestation.
Such amazing tips. And another thing I really want you to pay attention to is maybe this thing is not actually for my highest good. I know it's so hard to hear that because you're like, no, I'm manifesting this thing and it needs to work. Why is it not working? And yes, it may be a block or sometimes rejection is redirection. So maybe you think, oh, for example, I really wanted to buy this condo right when I got married. It was in the Pacific Palisades. It was so beautiful. It was by the ocean. I was like, the day I went, I saw dolphins there. And like, those are my power animals. So if I saw dolphins, I'm like, this is meant to be. Like, I am meant to buy this condo. It's happening, it's happening. Full manifestation juice there. And it got blocked. In fact, we thought we were going to buy it in last minute. Someone who was like, second place came back, cash offer. It was out of our hands. And I was so confused. You know, this house belongs to me. I saw the dolphins. We just got married. Where are we going to live? We already moved out of our place. We were in this limbo of not knowing what to do, and it was so hard on me. However, about a year later, I ended up moving to Miami. You know, 2020 happened, and my husband's office shut down. And we really sat with ourselves of, where do we want to live? Where is our highest expression? And now I'm in Miami, Florida, where there's even more dolphins in an even better condo. But at that moment, in felt like everything was working against me, right? The universe had its back on me, but really it was protecting me in a way that I couldn't have seen at that time. So rejection is redirection and it is protection. So sometimes it's not working out for you because the universe knows some information that you do not yet know about.
And that's so important to remember all the time. Like, one of the same, very similar situation happened to me. One of the biggest, deepest desires of my whole life I thought was happening. We were, like, gonna do this beautiful show about real witch, and it was gonna be so exciting. And I was like, so juiced up and amplified and, like, yes. And I was thinking about it every day. And I'd moved into this dream house, and I was just building my life around this manifestation. And then when it didn't happen, I was devastated. I was literally heartbroken. I, like, could barely function. And so I decided to do one of the things that always is healing for me, and I know Sahara has done this too, is to take an adventure and to go out into the world and travel and receive new experiences. And one of the things that I have always lived by is that travel is one of the only things we can buy that makes us richer. And so I went to Bali. Some people love Bali. I love a lot of things about Bali. But I was, like, standing in this waterfall, and there was this, like, toothbrush with a string, like, attached to a plastic bag dripping down on me. I rented a house that had a waterfall in the backyard, but you couldn't swim in it because of all the trash. And, like, the water was unclean. And I was like, this does not work for me. I need amazing nature. And I randomly went. My friend was like, I'm gonna get my head tattooed. Do you wanna come over and hang out while I get my head tattooed? I was like, no, but I feel like I'm supposed to say yes. And so I did, and I went, he's, like, getting his head tattooed. And I met this Australian girl who was just there, like, playing the sound bowl. And she was like, how have you been liking Bali? And I was like, I haven't really. I've had a really hard time connecting to the nature. And that's why I came here. There's so much trash, and I literally just spend all my time, like, picking up plastic. Cause it's so heartbreaking. She was like, you would love Mullumbimbi. And I was like, what? I'd never heard that word before. It made no sense to me. It's like this beautiful Aboriginal word about this tiny town near Byron Bay in Australia. And she just said that. And I was like, something was in. In me was like, yes, and I am gonna love Mullumbimby. And I ended up going there, and a dear sister of mine, who I knew was Australian, but I had no idea was back in Australia or was from Byron Bay. I ended up telling her, hey, I'm going to Oz. I want to visit this place called Mullumbimbi. She's like, I'm from five Minutes from Mullumb Place. Very well, you gotta come visit us. You can Come stay with me. I had no idea. I knew that her family had money. I had no idea that they had a seven home compound and were basically like own Australia. And they ended up giving me my own beautiful witchy cabin to live in on this land, waterfalls and nature. And I. I had the most magical experience. And also her mom was a witch. Her mom had been in a covenant for 30 years and done all these rituals and all this magic with her sister and her sisters. And that woman changed my life. She completely transformed my relationship to my craft, to my belief systems, to the goddess and the way that I communicate with her, my devotion and dedication to being a vessel for her. And so if that manifestation had happened, I would never have gone there. And I deepened into my craft. And yeah, they were gonna do this show about me being a witch, but I truly became a witch during A Wise Woman. I learned from a wise Woman. I utilized the heartbreak from that experience to enhance and cultivate my own personal wisdom and my intuition. And that time was some of the most special of my entire life. I will never forget it. And it truly shifted the trajectory of my reality. So like Sahara said, rejection can be redirection and protection. I would not have been ready for that manifestation the way that I could be ready for it now without having had that experience.
I love that story so much because it really shows that sometimes there is a lesson that we still need to learn before a manifestation to happen. That we can sometimes see what's meant for us 10 years from now, but we don't see all the steps and all of the obstacles that we get to face that really shape us for us to get there. So you knew and you still are going to have that show in divine timing. And you're trusting that the lessons in every single year, you're deepening into your wisdom and your witchcraft and who you are, that the show is actually gonna be better and better and better. And maybe if you had got that show at that time before that experience and the experience you've had since, it could have flopped because you weren't fully embodying it to that degree. So sometimes we do we feel like, oh, I need to get that thing right now. But it's actually, how do we get to deepen and grow and learn to really allow that thing to stick when it happens? And the exact same thing happened to me. I wrote my first book on Ayurveda and I pitched it to 30 different publishers and they all rejected me. And I had spent two years writing this book. I got disowned by my family, I wrote risk everything to write this book, and I got rejected by every single publisher I shared it with. So I'm like, like, goddess, I follow the steps. Like, what is going on? Like, show me the path. And what ended up happening was I was later hired to write the official Idiot's Guide to Ayurveda, which is like the official textbook which caused me to go so much deeper into Ayurveda than I ever have before. And now I've realized that I needed to write that book first. It was like my PhD into Ayurveda to really be able to it, not without any of my own ego or story or anything attached to it, but, like, to purely learn the channel of it and be the vessel of it. So then I could write my own book and my own interpretation of it. So be open to the lessons that are showing up, and instead of trying to run away from them, lean into them, because they're here to teach you.
Yeah, that's such an important thing to remember, too, that I have to really drill home with y' all is that if it's not coming, the story, the block, those are the first steps. But that means that there's some part of you that gets to. Not that there's something wrong with you, but that gets to grow, expand, learn something deeper, embody something more, Become that version of yourself that is truly in alignment. It's just like the friendship videos that we made. It's about becoming that, becoming the energy of that within yourself. And so. So I needed to learn that ritual is not just the one hour that you sit in circle together. It's the day that you're building, that you're crafting, that you're communicating with the goddess and seeing and hearing and feeling. What do I need to do? What is the most important thing for me to bring into this ritual space? What do I want to create for people? What are the colors that I want to build my altar with? It's the communication that the universe is giving to me and sharing with me all the time. And that everything is divination, everything is communic. Knowing that I have based my entire life on that fact now, and everything has changed. The way that I dress, the way that I move, the way that I communicate back to the universe in return. All the feng shui, all the things of my house, all the tips that I use for manifestation have shifted because of that experience. And so the biggest thing that all of these pieces go together in order to let you know that where you are now is perfect and you have an opportunity to become even closer to the version of yourself that has that manifestation before it even comes into your life. And all you have to do is trust. Trust in the timing, trust in the process, and trust in yourself. That's the true origin of the word confidence is to trust. Trust in yourself that you can make this happen, that you can become that version of yourself. And when you do, your manifestation will come straight to you.
