A Manifestation Guide for the Earthly Magician

The alignment of the 4 elements in the perfect symphony of abundance

By Verónica Vélez GuzmánPublished 2 months ago 6 min read

I don’t know how familiar you are with the topic of manifesting the life you deserve. I must say that, until recently, I wasn’t truly aware of it myself. I had some general knowledge gathered from platforms like YouTube and Spotify, and from friends on a spiritual path, plus bits of information I found online.

But it’s one thing to “know” something and a very different thing to actually live it. Everything remains theoretical until you apply it to your own life.

Recently, I’ve gone through a series of major events that have forced me to completely rethink the way I’ve been living. While navigating all those changes, disappointments, catastrophes, and tower moments, a piece of information suddenly clicked for me:

Manifesting is not just one thing—it’s a combination of several elements that must work together if you want real results.

Some people say you only need to shout affirmations at the mirror to get what you want.

At the beginning of the year, one of my friends created a vision board with the goals she wanted to achieve in 2025. So far, only one of those goals has become a reality. Don’t get me wrong—achieving any goal is reason to celebrate, and I’m really happy for her. But she had at least five goals on that board. We’re in November now, and the remaining four don’t seem anywhere close to happening yet.

Are those goals impossible? Of course not.

Does that mean she’ll never achieve them? Absolutely not!

But it may take more than a vision board to get there.

What I discovered is that there are four aspects of yourself that must align in the same vibration in order for your desires to manifest into reality:

Your thoughts

Your words

Your inner beliefs

Your feelings

All of them have to be in tune.

If even one of them is out of alignment, the universe simply can’t understand what you want—you’re sending mixed signals.

Let me give you an example:

Let’s say you want a bucket full of money to come into your life. So you stand in front of the mirror and say:

“I’m abundant. I deserve abundance. Today, I will receive a bucket full of money.”

Your words are aligned.

But suddenly your mind jumps in:

“Where is this money supposed to come from? Who’s going to give it to you? Don’t be ridiculous.”

Your thoughts are not aligned.

Then your subconscious adds:

“You’re not worthy of receiving that money. You don’t deserve abundance.”

Your inner beliefs are not aligned either.

And maybe right now you’re going through financial struggles, so while you say those affirmations you actually feel desperate, anxious, pessimistic, and poor.

Your feelings are also out of tune.

So imagine what the universe hears:

Your words say: “Give me money.”

Your thoughts say: “Block it.”

Your beliefs say: “I don’t deserve it.”

Your feelings say: “Give me more struggle.”

Let me tell you a little secret:

The beings “up there” have no idea what life in the matrix truly feels like.

They don’t understand pain, anxiety, or the fear of living paycheck to paycheck. Most of them have never lived a human life.

So they don’t know if what you’re asking for is good or bad for you—they only know that you’re asking for it.

That’s why you need to be very specific and very aligned.

I once met a woman who could turn any conversation into a list of complaints. The first time I met her, it was a beautiful day, the sky was clear and blue, painted with the hand of God. I said:

“Look at the sky—it’s beautiful today!”

She answered:

“It won’t last. It’s going to rain later. Traffic will be terrible. I’ll get soaked waiting for the bus…”

And she continued complaining about something that wasn’t even happening yet.

It’s no wonder she had lived the weirdest, most dramatic, most improbable experiences one could imagine.

If you ask for struggles—consciously or unconsciously—that’s exactly what you’re gonna get.

This insight came to me during one of the hardest financial periods of my life.

Two years ago, I spent several months with almost no money in my bank account beyond bare survival. I lived in constant fear that something major would happen—a car crash, an illness, a fire—and I wouldn’t have the means to survive it. And indeed, I had to deal with one unexpected thing after another.

Until this information not only reached me but finally clicked inside of me. And I realized how my thoughts, words, inner beliefs, and feelings kept me trapped in a world of scarcity.

Today, my approach to life is completely different. I’ve been living in abundance for a while now, and I can finally say that I’ve passed the test.

One of the first things I realized was that I used to have no respect for money. Even though I’ve never been wealthy, I pretended I was by throwing money away. I lived outside my means because I refused to accept my reality.

But if you don’t respect money—if you treat it as meaningless—money will simply stay away from you.

Last week, I had a minor car accident. Today, I took my car to the mechanic. Before, I would’ve taken an Uber home, regardless of the cost—like many people would. But today I thought:

“Wait, there’s a bus that goes straight to my destination. It’ll be much cheaper.”

And then I thought:

“My home is only 2.7 km from the gym. I usually burn that on the cardio machine. Why not walk it?”

Don’t get me wrong—I had the money for the Uber.

My decision didn’t come from scarcity or punishment.

It came from abundance, from making smart choices so that abundance stays with me instead of being thrown away.

Would those $15 dollars for the Uber have made any real difference in my financial stability? — of course not. But the point is that when the four elements aligned in abundance, they naturally led you to make different choices. That is what truly matters.

So I took the bus. Everything went smoothly. The driver was kind, the bus was almost empty, and nothing bad happened. It cost 90% less than Uber.

Then I walked home from the gym, as planned.

My epiphany came during that walk.

I passed by a man who felt heavy, as if life itself were unbearable and he was carrying it on his shoulders. He looked at me—maybe he noticed the joyful vibe on my face—and he seemed almost offended by it, as if he couldn’t believe someone could feel genuinely happy while walking that same route instead of having a more comfortable way home.

A few meters ahead, I walked past a woman whose steps were so cautious it looked like she might stumble at any moment. Her expression was a mix of fear and anger, and she also looked at me with a hint of disgust, as if my joy contradicted her entire experience of the moment. As she passed, I felt like I wanted to hold her (but of course I didn’t because we were complete strangers), it felt like she was falling apart with every step she took.

I passed cleaning workers who seemed ashamed when I acknowledged them, misinterpreting my glance as judgment—when the only judgment came from within themselves.

I walked among eyes and faces full of struggle, pain, scarcity, fear, anxiety, and deprivation… while I was having an amazing, spontaneous, productive day.

We were all in the same place, at the same time.

We could all have been experiencing the same beautiful day.

But they chose otherwise.

And that’s when I realized:

My days of lack are over.

I learned the lesson.

I learned how to align my thoughts, words, emotions, and beliefs into a perfect symphony of abundance.

No matter where I am or what is happening, there is only one predominant frequency in my life now:

abundance.

That is the true secret of manifestation:

Not to wait for circumstances to change, but to think, say, feel, and believe that you already are who you want to be, and that you already have everything you desire.

Money, love, health—it doesn’t matter.

Once you align the four elements, there is truly no limit to what you can achieve.

You are the one and perfect only architect and master of your own life.
