Sometimes it’s difficult to know if you manifested something or if intuitively you had a premonition. Can you tell the difference? In this blog we will discuss that very challenge.
Premonitions may tell you what will happen if you stay the course whereas manifestation is the creation of the course, ongoing or new. Premonitions can be like signs whereas manifestation is about consciously deciding to follow the sign or create something completely different. Let me give an example. I was driving on Interstate 95, when a motorcyclist raced between me and the car in the other lane. My dear friend said, “Body bag.” A few miles up the road the cyclist and bike were laying in separate places in the shoulder.
A manifestation is the creation of your vision or dream. A premonition is the snapshot that can be of your life or someone else’s.
She freaked and thought she had manifested it! It took me some time to calm her down and help her see that it was a premonition and not a manifestation. She had a vision that flashed within her as he flew by us (a sign) and she stated what she saw. That was the premonition. Furthermore, she would NEVER wish harm on anyone. Therefore, her intentions would never align with a thought like that to manifest the situation. A premonition can also be a one-time vision whereas manifestation allows the vision to unfold and continue forward. Here is an example:
A very dear friend of mine had a vision of being an attorney (CLICK HERE to see the Instagram Video) when he was a boy, prior to knowing what an attorney was. Later in his childhood, he saw a tv show about an attorney and realized what he was going to be. It was then that he began manifesting the initial vision. He indeed became a very successful attorney.
Further, a premonition can be your vision to see the dream or that vision can just come into your awareness and pass. A premonition may also come into your thoughts as a thought.
For example, I may be straightening up my home and I have a very clear thought of my high-school best friend. That evening, I get a text message saying she is coming to my area and wants to know if we can get together. We had not spoken or gotten together for over 15 years!!
Oftentimes, these premonitions are telling you someone is present or something is present. If it’s more of an insert, it can be a calling forth at that moment.
Another example: I had a week of flashing, intruding thoughts and visions of one of my dogs Pedro, who had passed months earlier. The following week, Magoo, his brother, passed away. I realized Pedro was coming in to take Magoo to the other side.
There was no manifestation in those visions. They were an awareness of a presence.
Our premonitions and visions exist often spontaneously, as you can see. The manifestation has more consistency to it by allowing the vision to unfold as it continues to go forward. As you develop the vision, or premonition, of your dream, you can “see” the dream. You want the vision to have great detail and be very clear to you in the way it feels, moves, and looks. This is where you begin to understand that.
As you can see, premonition is the intrusive thought or vision that gives a snapshot of what will be. They can be entwined with your manifestations. In the premonition, you may not have any of the surrounding details or context. When you manifest you have the context and the details. In many cases you know what’s leading up to the manifestation.
In a premonition, you don’t know what leads up to it. You don’t know why it is, you just know it is. You can manifest your premonition or choose to manifest something different than the premonition. However, if the premonition you have is on behalf of someone else then it’s clearly a premonition. We do not manifest things in other people’s lives. Unless we are working in concert with their effort to manifest within their lives.
Now let’s add another dimension to our understanding of the difference, and yet the connection, between the two. To the energetic realm, there is no such thing as time. Consequently everything just is. There is also no such thing as space in between. Everything is one. So when we have a premonition, we tap that source of energy. Premonition is tapping that source of energy and getting a glimpse of what occurs in what we perceive as the future. We see something in the now that may be in the future.
We see it happening here but it will happen there. Manifestation is holding the space for the creation. That is the crux of energizing your manifestations. You want to see it in the here and now with the vision and be clear on the “future” experience. It is then that you are fueling the dream you are manifesting.
And finally, let’s understand the context within which manifestation resides. Manifestation is part of the Law of Attraction (CLICK HERE to read the blog). The Law of Attraction is a law of life that has been around from the beginning. It says that what you put out comes back. All of life is a circle and that circle begins with, and circles back to, you. So, you attract back to you what you send out. Manifestation is the act of creating with the law of attraction. You can create consciously or unconsciously. You create your fears and your joys. Always!
In conclusion, manifestation is the creation of your vision or dream. A premonition is the snapshot that can be of your life or someone else’s. You attract the premonition because of the concept of all is one and the law of attraction. Therefore, you can have a premonition that relates to what you are manifesting or a premonition that is simply an awareness of an event (your’s or someone else’s).
The premonition can be an introduction to your manifestation but can also be completely separate and can stand alone. The premonition can be about you or another. You do not, however, manifest other’s lives. That is their free will. When you have a premonition that involves another, it is just that, a premonition. Otherwise, you hold the free will to choose if you will manifest your premonition or manifest a new direction in your life!
