Everywhere we look, we are encouraged to make things happen. Do you want that dream job? Hustle hard and make it happen. Do you want your relationship to work? Go hard at it and make it happen. Do you want to finally find a loving partner? Do everything it takes to make it happen.
There is certainly nothing wrong with having goals and committing to pursuing them. In fact, having goals alone is not enough. You have to show up and do your part.
But here is the real catch: How are you showing up? Are you so fixated on things working out a certain way? Are you caught up in a vortex of trying to control everything? Are you feeling anxiety, panic, and pressure around your goals?
There is a different way. This is the way of surrender. If you want to manifest your soulmate vision, surrendering and trusting the Universe is the final step of bringing “The One” into your life.
Surrendering does not mean you don’t do anything to manifest your desires. It means deliberately choosing to align with the Universe and knowing that the love of your life is on their way.
You Are A Co-Creator with the Universe
The concept of surrender can be a bit confusing especially if you are conditioned to think and live life in terms of making things happen and being in control.
The question that first comes to mind is this: Should we not have goals? Should we just sit back and expect that things will miraculously happen?
The answer is yes and no.
You see, you are a powerful co-creator. What this means is that the Universe is always manifesting to your will and responds to that which you call into existence.
The Universe gets things done in the ethereal or spiritual realm. We, as co-creator have to meet the Universe halfway by taking action in order to manifest our dreams into physical reality. We have to do the work that is required.
The work is, essentially, the systematic manifestation process based on the Law of Attraction. This includes:
- Setting clear intentions of what you want in a soulmate
- Creating and reciting positive affirmations to raise your vibrations and make them a match with that of your soulmate
- Performing full and half-moon rituals to prepare yourself spiritually, mentally, and emotionally for your soulmate
- Cutting energetic cords to past lovers and past conditioning
- Sending out a soulmate call inviting The One into your life
The steps and exact techniques might vary slightly but the idea here is that you have taken certain steps to create a space that supports the manifestation of your soulmate vision. By taking these steps, you are meeting the Universe halfway.
As you can see, manifestation is not a passive process where things are happening to you as you take a back seat. On the contrary, you are an active participant in the process of creating your life.
So, what happens after you do the work? Surrender happens. This is the trickiest part of the manifestation process for most people but it is also a key component of bringing your vision into physical reality.
Surrender signifies letting go, trusting the process, holding a deep knowing that all shall be well. Trusting the Universe to come through for you is a deeply liberating step to take.
To come back to the earlier questions: You absolutely need goals. Should we just sit back and expect that things will miraculously happen? Yes, but after you have done the work on your goals. Then sit back and wait for the miracles to unfold.
What does surrender truly feel like? When you surrender your soulmate vision to the Universe, you will know because you will feel:
- Less anxious because you know your soulmate is on their way to you
- Less stressed because you know you are worthy and enough for your perfect soulmate when they do arrive
- Less pressure to couple up right now
- Ease in the way you live your day-to-day life
Ironically, surrender accomplishes more than the energy of hustling, striving, and making things happen.
Divine Guidance and Surrender
The Universe is a co-creator in the manifestation process and is always responding to your will. This means that it is always working for you; never against you. As such, does it make sense to trust the Universe?
In every moment, the Universe is not only protecting you but it is also giving you the guidance you need to navigate the world, work through your goals, and manifest your desires.
But here is the thing about being too fixated on your goals and subsequently, fretting about the future: You get blindsided and block the divine guidance the Universe is sending your way.
If you do this you are essentially sending out signals to the Universe that you do not trust in the process and that you are fearful and doubtful that things will work out.
Difficult as it is to admit, sometimes what we think is good for us isn’t actually good for us. The Universe, which works from the ethereal realm where everything manifests before it can take form in the physical world, knows what is best for you and will always work for the highest good.
What this means is that it is fine to know what you want. In fact, you should know what you want; this is the first step in the manifestation process. However, it is also important to be fully open to the guidance the Universe is providing to help you manifest your desires and even to dodge bullets that may seem like roses at first sight!
So, the choice is yours: Do you want to be so fixated on manifesting your soulmate vision that you miss the signs or do you want to receive divine guidance to help you know where to look, what to do, and what to say to bring “The One” into your life?
Manifest Your Soulmate in Divine Timing
Time, as we understand it in linear terms can be a source of such immense pressure. When things do not happen according to our timeline, stress, anxiety, and frustration sets in. And guess what? We activate a process of attracting more stress, anxiety, frustration!
Think about it: Has there been a time in your life where you wanted something to happen so badly at a specific time? What happened when things did not pan out the way you wanted them to? You may have found yourself caught up in a world of anxiety that threatened your inner peace.
Does this mean you should ignore time? Not necessarily. However, to manifest with ease and to experience more peace, it helps to transform your perception of time as you know it.
The Universe does not operate on the kind of linear time that we do. What might seem like a good time might actually not be a good time after all. When you understand this concept, you will come to the understanding that everything happens at the time it is supposed to happen and this time is the perfect time.
When you revise your perception of time, you will come to the knowing that what seems like a delay is the Universe urging you to be patient. Remember, the Universe is always working for you.
When it comes to manifesting your soulmate vision, try to let go of old concepts of time. It might feel as though you need to be in a relationship now but don’t you see how much stress and anxiety that kind of thinking is causing you?
In fact, when you become fixated on timelines, you begin to manifest from a space of fear, doubt, and desperation. The results might be sporadic at best and undesirable at worst.
The opposite of being attached to specific timelines is choosing to trust in divine timing. Divine timing is the Universe’s timing. It is the time that serves not just your best interests but also the greater good.
Allowing your soulmate vision to manifest at the perfect time aligns you with the Universe, eliminates resistance, and creates space for you to receive what you asked for and better.
This acceptance and understanding is such a powerful show of trust in the Universe; it is an unshakable knowing that your vision is on its way and it will manifest just when the time is right. Whew! No more pressure for things to happen Now! Now! Now!
To release your intentions to divine timing, end your prayers or affirmations with the phrase “this soulmate vision or a better vision is manifesting in my life in perfect divine timing,”. Then let it go.
Practice Patience and Embrace the Lessons in Delays
Surrendering to divine timing is a practice in patience. No matter how powerful your manifestation skills are, you will not always manifest what you want immediately because it is simply not meant to be.
Patience is a necessary virtue in the manifestation game. Those who hold space for patience can release resistance and remain a vibrational match for what they want to manifest.
Every delay has a lesson within it. Do not look at delays as pesky inconveniences. In fact, they serve an essential role, which may or may not be immediately obvious to you. What is important is to realize that whenever you experience a delay, it is for your greatest good.
Delays sometimes come to allow you to do additional work, for example, to remove resistance, to allow you time to grow, or to enable you to create space for what you want to manifest. Often, we do not know what a delay or a series of them means until much later. Other times, we just never come around to find out the reason for the detour and that is fine too.
The important thing to remember is that just because you are not manifesting your soulmate vision fast enough does not mean that your prayers will never be answered. You are just being prepared to receive what you asked for in perfect divine timing.
Make Gratitude A Core Principle of Your Lifestyle
There is something powerful about cultivating an attitude of gratitude. For one, you notice more and more things to be grateful for, which creates a wonderful momentum in terms of raising your vibrational frequency.
Gratitude can also restore your trust in the Universe. When you take notice and feel appreciation for all the wonderful things you have in your life, you are assured that the Universe always works for you.
If the Universe conspired for you before, why won’t it continue to do so and conspire to help you manifest your soulmate?
Be grateful for the love and connections you already have in your life right now. If the Universe worked to bring you great friends, family or colleagues, why won’t it work to bring you the love of your life?
Look around you, there is so much to be thankful for, no matter how small it may seem. The more you practice gratitude, the more things, people, and experiences you will have to be grateful for.
*****
Your soulmate vision will come to you in perfect timing. Do not concern yourself with how or when. As a powerful co-creator, your task is to do the work needed to ready yourself to receive your vision. Then, let go and have absolute trust that the Universe conspires for you at all times.
