Excerpt from "Your Sacred Wealth Code: Unlock Your Soul Blueprint for Purpose & Prosperity"

Wealth is everything we need materially, spiritually, and emotionally in order to fulfill our purpose on Earth. It is the accumulation of everything we need, want, and desire.

More, wealth is the perception and belief that we have everything we need, want, and desire. In order to be wealthy, we have to feel wealthy. Otherwise, we just have a lot of stuff.

This is a higher meaning of wealth than the one we usually encounter. Or, depending on your perspective, it might be a foundational meaning. After all, what we see as wealth in others’ lives is really only the superficial trappings. We can’t see how they feel, or how they are living their purpose, until we look deeper.

Often, we equate wealth solely to money, but that’s actually inaccurate. Money is simply the common energy of exchange in our world?the unit of measurement by which we value the intangible resources of time, energy, security, relationships, love, and freedom.

I think it’s safe to say that everyone, from every walk of life, wants to be wealthy. It’s a desire that we are born with, and one that we nurture as we grow. After all, I don’t know anyone who spends their time asking, “How can I be poorer? How can I have more lack in my life?” Do you?

Your Wealth is Your “Why”

When you think of being “wealthy,” what does that look like to you? Is it a numerical benchmark, like, “I’ll be wealthy when I have a million dollars in the bank”? Or is wealth more of a feeling to you, a state of being, a new and upgraded operating platform? What resources, relationships, and mindsets do you need to attract in order to live in wealth and abundance?

Wealth is very personal. It’s different for each of us. Once you know what wealth actually looks and feels like to you, you will be more able to attract it.

Another question to ask yourself is, “Why do I want to be wealthy?” Why do you want more money? What do you think money will allow you to do, be, and create?

“I want to be wealthy because …”

· I want greater security.

· I want to buy a new home (or car, boat, camper, etc.).

· I want to travel and experience the world.

· I want to create a healthier lifestyle without worrying about the price tag.

· I want to start a business.

· I want to create or assist a charity.

· I want to leave a legacy for my children and grandchildren.

· I want to live as an example to others.

· I want to start a movement.

As you explore the question of “why,” try not to judge yourself. There are no wrong reasons to desire wealth. Whatever makes you feel wealthy is important, because it gives you a clue as to your deeper motivations, values, and purpose. For example, if you want wealth because it will increase your prestige and visibility, it’s not something to be ashamed of. In fact, these attributes are probably tied to your greater purpose.

We live in an ever-expanding universe. Our desire for wealth is extremely personal, but it’s also part of that collective expansion energy. When we tap into that truth, and understand that our desire for wealth is innately connected to our purpose in life, we invite the universe to work on our behalf.

Acknowledging your “big why” around wealth actually opens up avenues for greater wealth to come to you. You open up pathways, make connections, and see possibilities everywhere, and are more likely to take action to acquire the resources you need to move forward.

So, right here, right now, embrace your soul’s desire for wealth and prosperity, and know that by doing so you will be empowered to actualize your purpose and greater calling in the world.
