Y'all Need Some Fucking Backbone And Discipline, Not Edward Art Or Neville.

I really do think that Stefan and Katherine should have been together in tvd. Yesterday I was thinking about how Elena was the one who made Damon embrace his humanity and I thought that the same could have happened with Stefan but backwards. Let me explain: Stefan sucked at being a vampire, we all know this, because he was a ripper and with that came the guilt, the brooding and all that stuff, and also and the most important thing he hated being a vampire. His one and only desire was to be human, that’s why he dated Elena and pretended to be a normal guy. He wanted a human girl with a human life (his words not mine) Same with Damon, he hated being human, in fact he couldn’t think of anything more miserable remember…So Damon ended up wanting to be human and embracing the human side of him thanks to Elena and just imagine how amazing it could have been if Stefan learnt to love his own nature and embrace his vampirism thanks to Katherine.

In my opinion, if this had happened Stefan would have been a much better character with a real character growth arc and it would’ve been just so fucking interesting. The love story could have worked as well as the delena relationship did.

Also, Katherine was the one who turned him so it could be so great if she was the one who teached him how to make a good vampire, how to love being one.

I also think that Stefan couldn’t love anyone right until he learnt to love himself, so…

And if they didn’t want to make nothing romantic between them, although I think it should have been, it could have been a really good friendship that improved the lives of both.

THEN WHAT IS THERE TO DO?

The Third House

The third house is a place of action. 3 is an active number. It is often associated with activity, manifestation, connection and creativity.

When it comes to the zodiac signs, number 3 is Gemini, which can be associated with the ideas of connection and activity. We can learn a lot about the third house, the house of activity, from analyzing Gemini, the sign of activity.

Gemini is the immediate Air sign, and it's mutable. It operates on the immediate, flexible capacity of its logic and perception. It represents agility, calculation, imitation, and adaptation. This gives the third house its rulership over the mind, memory, and expression.

Ultimately, Gemini is just an Air sign that wants things to be at ease for itself and for those around it. The third house is how we seek ease. It operates on the effortless responses and connections. As such, it represents trains of thought, words, reading, talking, conversation.

Gemini also famously represents twins or fraternity. This symbolism illuminates the third house's connection to siblings, cousins, next-door neighbors, best friends or childhood friends, lovers, community members and comrades. These are people who we can converse with at ease.

Finally, Gemini is the student. Smart, sharp, and cynical, this Mercury-ruled sign associates the third house with learning. The third house represents receiving an elementary education. All early or foundational learning experiences are here: K-12 education, training workshops, summer classes, living-learning communities and lower-division education.

Beyond the associations of Gemini, we can understand the third house by taking a look at the ancient scheme of houses.

In the ancient scheme, we are born under the earth. The fourth house represents birth or conception, home, parents, and family. It represents the comfortable, protected world of our most trusted family. Since this scheme is analyzed clockwise, the next house after the fourth house is the third house, which is quite interestingly named Goddess.

We have already discussed the third house's connections to communication, expression, intellect, and learning. The ancient scheme introduces a sense of local community. The child is born inside the safe and comfortable fourth house; her parents send her outside to play in the local community---school, friends, neighborhood. In the community, she makes friends, interacts with neighbors, and embarks and learns about the world and finds her core memories. The third house represents a child's learning about the world. Walking, eating, breathing---life's simple things. Simple activities, along with exploring the community, can make up our entire world during childhood.

But community exploration can be an adult thing too. Let's focus on the name of the third house---Goddess. Why would the Goddess (the Moon) choose this house as her temple? Well, there is naturally a divine magic to learning and information, and to the childlike experience of the world, but beyond that, there is a sense of comfort in the community which I feel appeals to the Goddess.

In the third house, there is a sense of ritual. A bus route you take every Tuesday. Walking by that bench and crossing this street to get to the bookstore. Commute and transportation on schedule. A daily scone that you grab on the way to work. Ritual in this sense, and perhaps in general, is comforting. At the weekly farmers market, people mingle at ease with the same friends and neighbors from the locality. Local vendors go about their small businesses mindlessly. People run their errands, children doodle in the grass and fly kites, queers flirt and frolic, friends grab a bite, elders walk, teens gossip. There's something really nostalgic about it all.

This idea of memory and comfort and familiarity in the community feels almost Cancerian. This is why the Moon rejoices in the third house, in the traditional scheme of planetary joys (see the diagram above). This is part of why the third house is so important. A lot of comfort can be found in a healthy locality. Recent feminist scholars in the field of urban studies have advocated for the replacement of our patriarchal view of the city with a matriarchal view. Today's cities are not loving or nurturing, they place cold, alienating, isolating, exploitative and White cis-heteropatriarchal expectations on people, upholding the system of industrial global neoliberalism. Cities need to be more localized, affordable, inclusive and comfortable for the unhoused, for the working class, and for women, queer people and racial minorities. The Moon rejoices in the local, inclusive, comforting space envisioned by the third house. Urban planners should take inspiration from that. Providing protective comfort and care along with a healthy democracy for natives, immigrants and marginalized groups (and for the environment) should be the central purpose of a city, not profit. Sorry I'm an urban planning major and I'm super passionate about this.

To sum it all up, here's a list of the indications of the third house.

action, the mind, memory, expression, thought, words, reading, talking, conversation, eating, walking, breathing, childhood, siblings, cousins, neighbors, best friends, childhood friends, community members, comrades, learning, receiving an elementary education, local community, neighborhood, sense of comfort in the community, ritual, commute, transportation, small businesses, people

At this point, I'm gonna shift over to discuss placements in the third house. Please take what resonates!

Basic Intro to SATS

General Summary of sats

State Akin To Sleep (SATS) is a phenomenon that originated with the teachings of Neville Goddard, a spiritual philosopher and spiritual teacher of the 20th Century. His teachings suggested that we can use our imagination and mental contemplation to access a ‘state akin to sleep’ or SATS, in which we can gain deeper insight into the universal laws and principles of life. By free-associating with ourselves and our environment, we can tap into a powerful source of wisdom and understanding to manifest our dream life.

SATS can be accessed voluntarily and at will, enabling us to explore deep levels of consciousness, gain clarity and peace of mind and truly understand and manifest our desires. It is said that this practice enables us to access wisdom that lies beyond the physical plane, and to gain deeper understanding of our deepest hopes, dreams, and desires.

The benefits of SATS are numerous. It has been said that this type of inner contemplation can help us find peace and harmony in our lives, as well as providing clarity and focus on our purpose. It can also help us manifest our dream lives and desires.

Neville and Sats

Neville Goddard was a spiritual philosopher who encouraged unlocking our full potential via creative visualization and believing in a higher power, claiming that “imagination creates reality”. He believed that when we are able to access this inner state, known as a state akin to sleep, then we are able to manifest our true desires.

So what exactly is this state akin to sleep? Neville Goddard explains it as a state of “focused concentration” where we become so focused on a particular thought or concept that time no longer exists. He states that “suspension of intellect loosens the conscious mind from the physical seat of the conscious ego and allows one to enter an inner creative state where time stands still.”

This state is often referred to as a deep meditation but there are other ways to access it. Neville Goddard suggests that when you go to sleep, you should begin by visualizing and describing a certain outcome, or an idea which you would like to bring into being. He states that “if you haven’t already succeeded in bringing your desire into existence, practice regularly by concentrating on the desired result and life will take on a magical quality.”

This practice can be done during any part of the day, although Neville Goddard suggests that it be done during sleep to experience a more trance-like state. He advises that “by returning to this creative state often, you will become more aware of your own power and ability to direct your destiny.”

Other methods

Neville Goddard's teachings highlight the importance of entering a state akin to sleep in order to manifest your desires through the Law of Assumption. Here are some methods to enter the state akin to sleep and a tutorial on how to use them effectively.

Methods to relax

1. The Pseudo-Sleep Method: This involves closing your eyes and imagining a scene that implies you already have your desire. Repeat the scene until it feels real, and persist in the feeling of its reality until you drift off.

2. The Relaxation Method: Lay down in a comfortable position with your eyes closed. Take deep breaths and focus on relaxing your muscles one by one, beginning from your toes to your head.

3. The Counting Method: Count backward from 100 while focusing your attention solely on the numbers. Allow yourself to become fully absorbed in counting and let go of any other thoughts or distractions.

4. The Affirmation Method: Choose a positive affirmation that resonates with you and repeat it silently or out loud until you feel calm and peaceful. This can help you to clear your mind and focus on your manifestation.

5. The Visualization Method: Visualize yourself in a peaceful and calm place, such as a beach or forest. Surround yourself with all the things you desire and embrace the feeling of gratitude for their manifestation.

6. Using subliminals, or waves of your preference

Tutorial on how to enter the state akin to sleep in 5 steps:

1. Find a quiet and comfortable place where you won't be disturbed.

2. Choose whichever method resonates with you and practice it consistently.

3. Take deep breaths and focus on relaxing your body and mind.

4. Introduce your desired scene, affirmation, or visualization and imagine it as if it is happening now.

5. Persist in this state until you drift off to sleep, allowing your subconscious to absorb the manifestation of your desire.

Remember, the key to entering the state akin to sleep is to focus on the feeling of already having your desire, and to persist in this feeling until it becomes your reality. Use whichever method works best for you, and repeat it daily until you achieve your manifestations

hey yalllll! this is a quick follow up on this ask

i’m not gonna make this an in depth post because, baby, ion got the time for that. but lemme go ahead and tell y’all, my babies, how i just got new family members!! now, i know that sounds like i just went to target and bought them but y’all know what i mean😭 so bear with me, please and thank you.

so for some backstory: i originally come from a family of 5 including me, my mama, my daddy, and my 2 sisters. my dad is a hypocrite and a yeller (can’t stand a yeller). my mom likes to gaslight, my older sister also likes to gaslight and is one petty mf. and my little sister always tryna act like she older than me and ion like that cause, sweetheart, i’m twice your age.

so what’s new?

their personality and looks—they’re completely different people. i only wanted to change their looks because it was weird to imagine them as these new personalities because, their faces are just so deeply associated with those old personalities. so i was like lemme alter them according to these new personalities.

how?

the same way you manifest anything else. decide, accept, and persist.

the execution.

as some of y’all may or may not know, i live in a different state than the rest of my family because of college. but i’ve been coming back to texas this summer quite frequently to visit them and my childhood friends. i fulfilled my imagination before i got on the plane to houston, literally while in the airport, so when my parents picked me up that’s when i physically saw they had reflected my imagination. and i later on saw my sisters too.

when?

this happened within 5/6 hours. and i was not in the slightest bit shocked. when i saw my parents the first thing that popped up in my head was “oh okay rae! we materializing shit quick i seeee” 🤣 the thoughts i be having, you’d think i was talking to someone fr. i really am my own best friend😂 i love it here!

end.

feel free to ask questions, i’ll probably get to them in a few hours. i’m bout to take a nice lil nap. i just wanted to proofread and post real quick cause it’s been in the drafts for a week and a half now. and my drafts just keep on getting bigger, further burying this post.

love y’all

𝐾𝑜𝑘𝑜𝑚𝑖 𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑢𝑎𝑠ℎ𝑖 𝑖𝑠 𝑎𝑛 𝑖𝑐𝑜𝑛：

As one of my pretty followers said “Why tho?”

Self concept. Her self concept was on fucking point. She would walk down the street believing she was the prettiest girl alive and yes ma’am, everyone believed her. She believed everyone wanted to both be her and be with her, and the 3D reflected that by showing her every man to be at her feet. They all wanted to date her.

You might be asking “ahem what about saiki?”

And yes you are right on that one. She had dominant thoughts about how saiki was ignoring her and wouldn’t notice her, which then manifested.

Although i will argue that was a queen at flipping those negative thoughts into a positive. She turned “omg saiki just walked straight past me” into “he thought i was beautiful i was some kind of hologram” lmaoo.

Where did she go wrong with saiki?

Eventually she kinda gave in to the dominant thoughts and lost her ability to flip those thoughts into positive. Which obviously didn’t help her manifestation of him.

What she should of done is keep persisting in the fact he does love her and want nothing but to be with her as we all persistence is key when coming into contact with doubts and limiting beliefs.

So how is she a loa icon if she didn’t get her sp?

UM she got the whole world apart from one little stubborn leo man to fall in love with her and believe she’s the prettiest and most perfect girl that has ever seen. You can’t deny her power. She has a little work to do, yes. But that doesn’t make her any less of a powerful god.

Take this into consideration

Just because you haven’t manifested that one little thing you wanted, although you have manifested loads of other stuff, it doesn’t make you powerless. It doesn’t dethrone you of your god title. You’re a still a god if you have only just started learning how to manifest consciously. You are still a god if you are still ‘waiting’ for your manifestations to come thru. Don’t doubt your power on how fast you can manifest. It’s not a competition. Your desires are coming. Your desires are already here. Accept them and claim them.
