Law of Divine Oneness - See everything and everyone as a God-being manifested in the physical form. Everyone and everything has a Divine gift to give you if you are open to receiving it. Law of Vibration - Spend a few minutes every day thinking of things to appreciate so your vibration rises to one of love. Law of Correspondance - Stop reacting to the outer world and begin intentionally creating it instead. The outer world is a byproduct of your inner world, which means you must change how you feel and think before your outer world can change. Law of Attraction - The more time you spend tending to your thoughts and emotions, the higher your vibration will be, and the more you will begin to attract that which vibrates on the same level. Health, abundance, love, and joy are all high vibrations, and you can rest in the knowledge that these will flow to you when you find yourself feeling them before they manifest. Law of Inspired Action - Ask yourself as many times a day as you remember, "What do I feel like doing now? What would be fun to do right now?" You are always being led towards action that will yield to you through the law of attraction. Law of Perpetual Transmutation of Energy - Since everything is energy in motion, to manifest something into physical form you need to slow to energy down. You do this by feeling into the vibration of desire. Feel vibrant/abundant/successful/ in love now in order to manifest it into physical form. Law of Cause and Effect - Understand that nothing in your life is by chance. It is all a reflection of where you have been mentally and emotionally. Love others and wish the best for them. Judge nothing and blame no one. The more love you send out, the more you will get back. Law of Compensation - Serve the world with love, no matter how small or menial you feel it is. Allow others to serve you. Intentionally put yourself in a place of ever-flowing giving and receiving. It is the divine order of things. Law of Relativity - Understand that life happens for you, not against you. Use everything you experience as feedback for fine-tuning your desires and the direction you want to go in. Law of Polarity - Take something that's occurring in your life that you don't like, and name its opposite. Use the law of polarity to help you focus on what you do want in order to move in the other direction. Understand that negative experiences can help propel you in the opposite direction. Law of Rhythm - See the good in every cycle and stage. Acknowledge and enjoy the positive that comes with every rising and receding tide. Allow yourself to experience the beauty in every unfolding and ever-changing cycle in life. Don't let current and temporary situations bring you down - understand that nothing is permanent. Law of Gender - In order to manifest your desires, you must strike a balance between doing and receiving, taking action and resting. Realize that when you focus on a thought or feeling, it goes into a state of incubation and is then "born" into physical reality inspired action must be balanced with patience and faith.
