Create Your Dream

A lovely friend of mine asked me a question today that prompted me to share a Creation Exercise that I call the Sundial Exercise. I call it that because it works all of the consciousness to get focus and clarity on a desire so that it can be more readily manifested!

So, here’s the Sundial Exercise:

Take a blank piece of paper and draw a little circle in the middle. Just big enough to write what you want inside the circle. For example: house, car, job, husband, baby, etc.

If you are putting in a person, like a husband, you want to literally write husband, even if who you really want is Steve Hotpants (that works over in accounting to be the one carrying you over the threshold). Do this powerful exercise to create what you want but allowing others free will of choice!

Now you’ve got the middle of your sun that has the thing you want written in it. Imagine you are 5 again drawing a sun. Start at the edge of your circle and draw a straight line out.

On that straight line write a trait that you want your ‘desired thing’ to have. And keep going around the circle drawing a straight line out adding a trait, for example if it is a husband and you are still thinking along the lines of Steve Hotpants then perhaps you might write “is clever in a sexy way’, or ‘has a great sense of mathematical humor’. You can describe Steve Hotpants, you just can’t name him.

Once you’ve gone around and made yourself a wonderful sundial with all the qualities and traits, physical, emotional, spiritual, anything you want put it somewhere you will see it as it is, like on your bedside table or on your fridge.

If you are really wanting whatever it is you wrote in that circle, then you’ll want to put a bit more effort into this project. Each day you will want to start from scratch and delete qualities or traits from the day before, modify them or just add new ones.

The act of re-writing it and putting your attention and focus on it helps to clarify what you want and it helps you to get more into alignment with what your Inner Being/Higher Self/Source wants for you. Often times from our limited perspective we reach for things that are less than what Source wants for us. So add to your Sundial the phrase “This or something better.”

When I do a Sundial I put it on my alter and keep it there, even when I am fine tuning it, the Sundial for that day stays on my alter and I give it a moment or two of my focus and attention.

Even if you don’t re-write and re-work your Sundial, you’ll get what you want. I’ve found, though, that the more you put into it the more clarity and focus you will get and that will lead to a quicker result.
