How Can I Manifest My Dream Home When There May Be Competing Energies Around It?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named ChrisTanya.

Chris: Hello, dear ones. I am about to move soon to a house in the countryside close to my hometown, which I left 15 years ago when I went to university in a big city. In many ways, this house has the potential to be the dream home I have long wished for.

Council: Definitely. We would say, “Yes, it is like you have created in life, a way to get back to something that meant a lot.

Chris: The way it came into my life without me having to do anything feels almost miraculous.

Council: Oh, it’s not without you having to do anything. You have created this. Even on an unconscious level, you have created this to bring this back into your life.

Chris: I’m starting to believe that I manifested this house into my reality.

Council: You certainly did. No one else did it.

Chris: Over the past 10 years, I have invested hundreds of hours dreaming about houses, imagining layouts, and mentally and emotionally living inside them.

Council: And that is how you manifest. Exactly what you’ve done.

Chris: Perhaps all that energy has finally borne fruit.

Council: Definitely.

Chris: However, it is not yet mine on paper. My dad bought it for himself with the money he inherited after my grandmother passed away, from selling her apartment. In a way, I feel this house is an indirect inheritance from my grandmother, who seems to be watching over me from the other side.

Council: It all works together. And, yes, grandma does help.

Chris: I feel as though the house has been calling me, and I it, and the universe created a perfect, straightforward opportunity for us to move there. Our current landlord is selling the apartment we’ve been renting, and we can no longer afford living in the city.

Council: Isn’t that amazing?

Chris: So things have aligned perfectly for my husband and me in the direction of our dreams happening at just the right time.

Council: Ahh, but we hear a ‘but’ coming.

Chris: However…

Council: Oh, however, instead of but. Okay.

Chris: Proportional to the size of the hopes, dreams, and expectations, are also the anxieties. We need to invest some money in renovations to make the house livable in the long term.

Council: And that’s a wonderful thing because you get to create some more, and you get to create in the physical, not just with your mind.

Chris: But what concerns me most is not the lack of finances, but the potential interference of others regarding my plans and project for the house.

Council: Okay, we want to say here, one of the things you came in to learn this time is to have confidence in yourself, and to be very strong. And so, if you have ideas and you want things a certain way, why would you let your power go to somebody else and not do what you want?

Chris: The thing is, I’ve thought about creative, simple, cheap, and eco-friendly solutions for almost everything that needs doing, but I worry that others – my parents, the handyman, or even my husband, though he is mostly supportive – might not agree with them.

Council: And so, people don’t agree with you. They’re allowed not to agree with you. When you think of the way you want things, does it make you feel good? And that is what you go with. Let everybody – the grocery man, the kids outside playing ball, a teacher, a friend, whatever – not agree with you. That’s okay. You can kindly, nicely say to them, “I understand how you think, but that’s not what I want. And we appreciate your input, but this is the way we are going to do it.” That’s when you call on your strength. And that’s what you wanted to do this lifetime.

There are so many different ways people will disagree. That’s okay. But that doesn’t mean you have to change your life, or the way you want to live it, or how you want to live it, because of people interfering. And you can even say, at one time, when this goes in that direction, “Excuse me, but I really don’t want your opinion right now. We know how we want to do it.” That’s a kind way. You’re not saying, “Hey, shut up, get out.” You’re just saying, “We appreciate your input, but that’s not what we want. That’s not how we’re going to do it.” That is your lesson.

You are so lucky that you have created everything you wanted. You’ve done all the inner work to have this happen, and now you’re going to turn it over to the guy down the street, your parents, your this, your that. No. You created this so that you would get to a point where you would stand your ground and feel good about it.

Chris: The lack of financial independence and legal ownership makes me fear I won’t have the freedom I need to put my plans into motion.

Council: So take your energy and your thoughts, like you did before in creating this, and create that, eventually, legally, it will be yours, if that’s what you want. You can do it. You have changed everything. You have brought it to you. You can do it more if you need it. Energetically you can say, right now at this moment, it is yours. Energetically, it is yours. If it happens in energy, it must happen in reality, in the physical. So you know how to do this.

Chris: Even though I’m willing to learn and do much of the work myself, I don’t feel my parents trust me enough, or see me as capable.

Council: Again, that’s their opinion. Do you feel you’re capable? Are you going to let them take it away from you? No. Take your beliefs and think how much fun you’ll have doing this. You’ll learn how to do these different things you want to change. Again, if they say, “You don’t know how to do this. You’ll mess it up.” You’ll say, “Thank you. That’s your opinion, but I don’t feel that way.” Again, you are learning to stand up [for yourself].

Chris: This house is more than a house to me. It represents a dream come true, a sanctuary, and an outer body for my being.

Council: Can it get better than that? Look at the work you have done. Look what you have created. Do not let these people come in now, at the end of this, and take away your dream, [and] make it difficult for you. You can always say the nice, kind words: “I appreciate your input. I’m sorry you don’t think I can do it, but I can.” That’s it. They will be shocked.

Chris: It needs to be in harmony, to make sense, and to have good energy flow. It must be the right fit for my needs and desires, even if I have to wait for my vision to manifest step by step into reality. The thought of living in a space that feels uncomfortable, especially if it is my house, and not just a rented apartment, is unbearable to me.

Council: Of course. And that is wise that you know that, and you know how horrible you would feel. So you know what you must do.

Chris: So my question is: How can I settle into this house with peace and trust, and have faith that I will align with the best possible outcomes and solutions for this home, when there may be competing and conflicting energies around it?

Council: By believing and thinking, over and over again, “Look what I have done. I have created this. I have brought this to me in so many ways. I can finish creating it the way I want it. I don’t need anyone’s approval. I know what I can do. I will have fun doing it.” And pat yourself on the back that you are in a place where you know what you’ve planned this lifetime. You know what one of your lessons is, and it is to stand up for yourself. And you will be amazed what else you can create.

Chris: Also, is it enough for me to claim this house energetically as my own? Or should I consider obtaining full legal ownership, if that is possible?

Council: Create energetically first. Put all your energy into creating this, and you will see. An opening will happen where you can create it legally.

Chris: Thank you for your answers. Much love, gratitude, and blessings.

Council: And we send you all love, and light, and happy thoughts, and fun on your way to creating and expanding your life.
