What is the secret of attraction?

Contrary to popular belief, the secret of attraction cannot be learned.  Still, the idea of this natural force is something humans seek to harness and control. Many people assume its something you can pursue or have and wield like  magical power to turns heads.  Yet, if not that, you may ask what is it that actually influences what and whom you attract?

You may be surprised to hear that the source of your assumed animal magnetism is not what you think.  Sexual prowess relates to confidence, and appreciation of the physical body, but there's more.  Beneath the surface, attraction is an energetic force.  You allow yourself to feel it through acceptance and being aware of something deeper.  Its about raising awareness of a soul connection.

In essence, the source of true power of attraction is to tap into existing mental clarity.  That's right! This is about seeing through what ego tells you attraction is and focusing all faculties and skills to manifest the purpose known deep in the soul.  You know when you are in the presence of someone who lives in the now.  You feel peace and contentment of the universe without doing anything. Be the divine force inherent in us all.

"The secret of attraction is to love yourself. Attractive people judge neither themselves nor others. They are open to gestures of love. They think about love, and express their love in every action. They know that love is not a mere sentiment, but the ultimate truth at the heart of the universe." -Deepak Chopra 

Be content in the changing world

As you gaze out into the world, change is everywhere.  You are invited to change and evolve based on what other people are doing. Come what may, are you always able to take change in stride and view it as an adventure?  If not, then some thought or belief is getting in the way. 

Know raising awareness of how you think and feel is an invitation to laugh at yourself and let go of what has already served its purpose.  Every moment is a new beginning beckoning. Transform your perception and transform your life.  Notice the exhileration and newness that refreshes and revitalizes. Allow the heart to clarify the nature of the experience that focuses your attention. How is it an invitation to love thyself, your conditions and everything around you all the more?

"All the art of living lies in the fine mingling of letting go and holding on." -Havelock Ellis 

Allow the light to shine

Notice as something within is deeply touched and no words can describe the experience.  Notice whether your  external response grows devotional, philosophical or, shifts in ways beyond words. Notice from the moment you reach a place of stillness and contentment, no restlessness exists. Everything unfolds according to its destiny. 

“Love is something eternal; the aspect may change, but not the essence." - Vincent Van Gogh

Be the compassionate universe

Be aware that energy creates reality.  Be aware of what is real.  You nurture what you see with thoughts and emotions. Nature remains as you let go of all that is nurtured. Go within. Feel connected to everyone and everything and the truth reveals itself.  You exist to evolve your consciousness.  Notice whether you listen to the heart (intuition). Allow yourself to be in the empty space that exists within the heart. Be that in silence.

Consider what happens from the moment you choose to live in empathy, to help, serve or empower others with love and appreciation. You begin to sense what it feels like to do the right thing and intuitively do it. You begin to go deeper within yourself and know the universe you are.  Interconnected universes are held together with compassion. You are the fabric of everything that has ever existed and all that is in this moment.  All that is unfolding invites you to let go of what stands in the way of accepting the real you.

"I allow my intuition to lead my path." - Manuel Puig 

Follow the thread of love

Notice you always encounter apparent strangers and strike up conversations for reasons the heart knows even when the logical mind does not.  Intuition is always a silent guide. Notice how you think, feel or interact with others sets off a domino effect. 

As you follow the thread of love, who is helping who? Do you invite a stranger into your life or does the person energetically beckon you? Notice what happens as you see everyone is interdependent, satisfying needs before they arise.  All needs are met in acceptance and mutual appreciation.  Any sense of difference or division falls away. 

You might say memories, perception and emotions are teachers. They distract your attention away from the compassionate being that is forever present and aware. As attention shifts, home speaks for itself in silence. All is well and invites you to just be.

"There are threads that help you find your way back, and there are threads that intend to bring you back. Mind turns to pull, it's hard to pull away." -Jeanette Winterson
