The Energy of Money

By Maria Nemeth

Money is an uncomfortable subject for most of us. We love money, and we hate it. We can’t live with it, and we can’t live without it.

Money can be a source of great joy and creativity, for it can bring frustration and misery, depending on our relationship with it.

This very discomfort is what makes our relationship with money such fertile ground. Whatever is potent for us, whatever elicits strong emotions, whatever seems to “hold on to us” in life has the power to bring forth our greatest strengths and most remarkable qualities.

Our relationship with money calls on us to wake up to see how we are handling all kinds of energy-not only money but time, physical vitality, enjoyment, creativity, and the support of friends-and to use those lessons to enrich every aspect of our lives.

To use the energy of money successfully, you need to operate in both physical reality and the spiritual, metaphysical reality made up of dreams, visions and your life’s intentions, you need to understand not only where your passion is, but also where your strengths lie.

Make a list of the things you are passionate about, and then narrow the list to those items that present an opportunity to generate income.

Once you’ve narrowed your list and have matched your aptitudes and interests, it’s time to take a good look at your support network. Treat your money with more respect.

Making better choices in how you spend your money will make it easier to free yourself to change the direction of your life.
