Is 5d Law of attraction broken?

What I’m about to say is going to be controversial. I’m telling you right now that you have a contracted situation you manifested, but you cannot manifest out of it. To give credit Jenn - she recognized this before I did. I was busy feeling sorry for myself!

Here’s my real-life experience and example:

Don’t get caught up in the “success” story—we go homeless just a few paragraphs down.

I quit school after the 10th grade and got a GED. I was given a book called Success Through a Positive Mental Attitude. Because of my lack of education and some teenage experiences, I became a meat cutter at a grocery store.

I manifested being the youngest and most profitable store in the country. Then, one day, I watched a commercial for a major brokerage firm, Merrill Lynch. It took a lot to get there, but I knew I would. I was the number one producer my first month out.

Literally, I went from butcher to broker. Then, started a tech company, and lived and worked in the Cayman Islands, Hong Kong, and Orlando. Then, I became a success copywriter—all using LOA along with the law of assumption (and other laws).

So, I knew how to manifest. I did it consciously and deliberately.

And then, we met, and got slammed Awake.

Look, if you’ve ever been blocked from a desire, that tells you right there that something more is at play than just the mechanisms of the law of attraction alone. Otherwise, we would manifest our desires every time.

Here’s an example:

I had recently started a copywriting business and had four long-term clients already lined up. We were moving to Florida so Jen could be closer to family, but we could not find a place to rent. We had money, we had everything you need, but one thing or another happened. I recognized we were blocked trying to manifest this. Nothing was working, and people were turning on us for no reason. Finally, we stayed at a friend’s rental house for only two weeks. 

To top it off, I’d lost my clients because they were pushing deadlines I couldn’t meet. 

Jen used to read to me when we went to bed. She had just read Out on a Limb because she wanted me to hear it. It’s about Shirley MaClaines' going to Peru and having spiritual experiences. 

I just had a super natural lesson and experience regarding being blocked. This came in real handy. Because when I finally realized we were blocked and out of the blue, I said maybe we’re supposed to go to Peru. 

I didn’t know exactly where that was. I asked how much money it would take. Jen was folding clothes and about four seconds later looked up and said $4000.

The next day, an attorney called and said she had been trying to reach us for weeks. She had a little project that she wanted me to bid on. After I spoke with her, I quoted 10 times her budget and required a $4000 deposit within two days.

Two days later, we had $4000.

We went to Peru and lived off commissions for nine months.

How could I not manifest one thing, but then manifest $4000 the next day?

Here’s my favorite part:

Spiritually speaking, Jen was "told from Within" that we were going to be homeless. Just a week or so before, I was told by Spirit we would be shutting down our site. At that time, we had the number one ranked website in the world for the search terms “Ascension” and “spiritual awakening symptoms.” It’s scary now that I look back—we weren’t ready to be any kind of an authority. No wonder Ascension took a detour and got delayed! (Kidding.)

Here’s what wasn’t funny:

I had just signed a new lucrative client and got a nice upfront payment. The website was growing like crazy. Finally, we were in a good place after years of being in the Ascension process. Plus, I knew how to manifest, and there’s “free will” and all that. This was 2011.

What could go wrong?

Within 9 months, we were homeless, on the streets in a strange town, and no family or friends were going to help. Back then, if you told family or friends about awakening or ascension, they thought you were on drugs, crazy, or in a cult.

We were legit homeless too. We walked 7 to 10 miles every day picking up cans, pushing grocery carts and cashing them daily. For another 9 months. 

Trust me, it took a lot to put us in this situation, but hey, we’re talking about the Universe and the Divine here—no limits.

And you can be 100% sure, and this is the same truth God knows, I was determined those two things weren’t happening.

However, even homeless we were manifesting sometimes within minutes. But we weren’t leaving that situation until it was completely played out. Imagine being homeless, fully awake, and still having spiritually transforming experiences. Not once did we doubt our Awakening or our being actively in the Ascension process.

What a great experience—blessed to have it.

Now, let’s discuss a little bit about the way the law of attraction works, in case you’re new or need a refresher:

Based on the Law of Attraction, you do attract what you vibrate. “What you think about comes about.” To add to this, you use visualization, emotions, and feelings, then layer it with the law of assumption along with others.

However, 5D manifestations won’t work like this.

You can have Jesus and Neville Goddard as personal coaches using this method, and it won’t make one difference.

We will no longer be able to attract what our ego wants; what the mind thinks it wants or is real. We will only receive what we are vibrating on the same level as, which comes from the Heart—your Heart’s Desire, which vibrates higher.

But even knowing this won’t help you now.

Here’s why:

1. You don’t get to be the final say on how this life plays out: Other aspects and your higher-self have influence because of Ascension. You Chose Before You Stepped Into This Life. You have a mission and a new 5D life coming you may not even be aware of. Promise.

2. We are collapsing timelines and parallel realities into THIS one: The reality you think you are trying to manifest might not even be available.

3. You don’t know what you want: I thought I did, but what we’ve been given—where we live and who is in our life—is truly amazing and a situation I would never have come up with. Yet, so far, it’s been perfect.

What I’m seeing is: be open, be led, let the vision come to you, and do not interfere.

Stay in gratitude, be open, feel, observe what you are drawn to. It could just be a stepping stone, so don’t let your mind lock down. You don’t know where you’ll wind up.

I took a long way around to starting this blog and site—no way this was on our radar a few months ago. We were told to stand down 13 years ago; now it’s stand up. Makes us think something is afoot…

Count your blessings and sit back and say, “I’m so happy and grateful now that all good things come to me.” 

That’s what I’m doing.

Big love,

Joe

PS. I hope this helps. Although this is part of our experience with manifesting, there’s also a good lesson on dealing with blocks. Did you catch it?
