The Blossoming Prosperity Paradigm

As we have struggled with the fear mongering of the Washington DC pundits, the issues of prosperity, how it works and why it does not seem to work at times has been on minds across the nation and the world.

Fear may be the most limiting aspect of all of the “sky is falling” talk of the past month. To try to dispel the damage being done I wrote the article Light a Candle for Hope article where I included both a free downloadable meditation on Abundance and an Invocation to Magnetic Attraction. These are gifts to enhance prosperity in this important time.

Through this period, I have been meditating and pondering about the issues of both abundance and prosperity. It came to me that part of the problem is the thought forms we as a society are using. As I have written in other articles, a basic life principle is that energy follows thought. That means thoughts have power and when a whole society holds a thought form it can become very powerful.

A thought that many holds (and have been keeping for many years now) have become, in my opinion, a part of the challenge for creating abundance on a global and national scale. That is the belief in what has been called “Trickle Down Economics.” In pondering our nation and the world’s current economic challenges, that theory which many use to justify keeping taxes low on the most affluent seems to be demonstrating a fatal flaw. As I considered this issue in depth, I realized that prosperity does not “Trickle Down,” it Blossoms.

As I began to work with that new thought, I saw a beautiful blossoming garden where every plant was growing healthy and strong as it reached for the light and reached out to touch everything that grew near it. In addition and more importantly, produced seeds that create new flowers and new blossoms around it. As I hold that image in my mind, it seemed to reflect truth.

I am not an economist, but I do understand the basic principles of money circulation in the world and feel that focusing on the image of prosperity blossoming is a powerful metaphor for how abundance and the world of money works. The growth from the touch of the blossoms to others and more importantly the release and planting of new seeds in the garden of life are all a part of an image and thought that can help rebuild prosperity in the world through the energy of creation. The petals from our blossom caress the flowers that are nearby. The pollen from one flower helps the fertilization and pollination of all of the flowers in the garden.

Every flower in the garden is beautiful and has its place in creating the lush abundance and beauty of the garden.

This prosperity blossoms image is very powerful because it contains within it a fundamental principle about abundance. When there are good times, not just for those at the top but for all levels of society is when we see the economy blossom and grow. Entrepreneurship brings new ideas and solutions to society. The seeds of new ideas can be planted and create jobs and opportunity for others, who then as those businesses blossom spark new ideas and new growth, spreading out and increasing as far as our thoughts can imagine.

Jobs and opportunity are the solution to our debt crisis. This is reflected in the old adage, as goes Main Street, so goes Wall Street. The very rich need the prosperity of the less rich to move the wheels of commerce. Job creation rather than resource hoarding is a part of how prosperity can blossom. Rather than waiting for prosperity to trickle down, those who have the resources need to think how they can blossom forth.

It is just a single thought. However, we all know, thoughts are powerful things.

So I suggest as a nation and as a world, we consider changing our thoughts and our paradigm to Prosperity Blossoming so the petals of prosperity and the seeds of growth can reach the fertile fields of creativity and potential.

In the Light,
