Here are the Thoughts™️I promised @discordkittenterumi

This post is a much longer follow to this post from last night as I was listening to episode 60.

This post is also in conversation with with something @peppedstep mentioned about Neil’s loyalty to the coterie, which I touch on briefly.

Everything sort of solidified in my brain after finishing 60 at like 2 am last night.

In 60, we see Neil wake up in a strange place with Weathers and Amara with him. The last thing he remembers is running from his sire which seems to be several days ago.

Neil also does not remember much of Baghdad (which is a whole separate post that is coming. I have many thoughts about Nara and Neil in that situation).

He routinely has panic attacks, some of which lead to dissociation. For example, before his trial in 37 and 38, we see him go catatonic when he realizes his haven is under attack. Dissociation is not usually something that happens to someone once and then never again. It’s a coping mechanism, and I don’t think it’s a stretch to say it’s something he experiences, perhaps not regularly, but with some sort of frequency.

In addition, many of his rituals require his mind to be separated from his body, and we know kalif also impacts his cognitive function as also seen in Baghdad. He has the capability of astral projecting which leaves his body behind, defenseless. The ritual with the bull in 6, he had others stay nearby just in case something were to happen. The second time he completes the ritual, Johnny escorts him.

Neil is often dependent on the people around him to keep him safe, and we see him repeatedly look to others for their judgement before he makes a decision on his own. He looks to Nara to trust Jubair, and he looks to Amara to trust Catherine and this mission. In these two cases in particular, he’s forced to rely on others’ assessments of the situation because he cannot make his own. In addition, relies on Britta and Miles to defend him in court while Johnny and Wynn take care of his haven. He also places an immense amount of trust in the coterie and their decisions, generally speaking.

Peppedstep mentioned that family is important to Neil, the coterie is important to Neil. He consistently revolves around the idea of keeping them together and spending their final nights together. I agree, but to add another layer to that, Neil trusts everyone in the coterie, and as has often been discussed, trust is an extremely rare commodity for Kindred, and in some cases doesn’t exist at all. What Neil has with the coterie almost seems to be unprecedented given the general picture of the Camarilla and Kindred society the audience is presented with. He knows these people will protect him and/or his body when he is unable to.

I would imagine, without them, his quality of life would be diminished, and all it would take is one mistake, one bad episode, for him to meet final death or another horrible fate, especially considering his abilities. It was a stroke of luck that Amara and Weathers picked Neil up.

His drug use, mental health issues, and magical abilities all work closely together to form a complex web of memory loss and a distrust of his own opinions. Even further, I would argue that his memory loss contributes to his lack of a sense of identity.

I believe it’s been mentioned a few times that Neil doesn’t really have a strong sense of identity (I am not going to sort through all 60 episodes to find those sources though, sorry! I do think it might have been brought up at the party when Fester was preparing him?), and that’s proven by how he talks about his worth early on when Wynn confronts him after the bull ritual. He, and I am paraphrasing here, believes he is useful because he can provide the coterie with knowledge. Later on, he mentions that Miles kept him around because of his specific abilities which again, his worth is tied up in his usefulness to people.

This mentality is compounded by his early history with his sire. In 51 or 52 (I can’t remember which and I’m not going to look it up), it’s described that Neil looks at his sire the way one might look at an abusive parent. Neil is absolutely terrified of this person even now. Based on Neil’s nonconfrontational personality, some of his coping mechanisms in the face of this abuse could easily be making himself small, agreeing with his sire, etc. leading to the people-pleasing nature we see in Neil now. Peppedstep also posited that Neil could have been Embraced to be made in his sire’s image. We know he is a loner, we know he has visions, and maybe he also feels the need for family in his own demented way. Regardless of if that is true, Neil’s sire had a massive effect on who Neil became as a Kindred and without question would influence his sense of identity. If Peppedsteps’s theory is true, then Neil’s sire would have stripped away any sense of who he was to remake him in his image.

TLDR: Neil has memory loss from a combination of drug use, mental health issues, and magical abilities which make him reliant on others for his safety in certain circumstances and further exacerbate his lack of a sense of identity.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

A lot of linguistic hoops to jump thru, to get Dalle to make Vulcan images. "Two dynamic panels in an intricate detailed modern comic book page showing a cermonial (star trek) Surak Vulcan, approaching a (kolinahr) Sarek Vulcan temple, and the other panel showing a close-up of their kal-i-fee ritual. Text boxes and captions heighten the honor, leaving the reader captivated by logic and tradition." If I can get it going better, without copyright infringements, I can use it for Vuhlkansu. AI is trained on other artists. Artists are trained on other artists. Libraries are full of books, written after reading books. Good and bad AI art, good and bad books.

I was waiting impatiently for the Eng subs to drop for the finale of The Love Doesn't Have Long Beans (a reminder of the bad old days) but when they did I kept putting it off. I though that at least two thirds of it would bring PAIN. But...

Yes, there was pain and betrayal and crying in the rain. Oab knew! He knew from their first night together and ignored it, because he'd already fallen in love with Plawan.

Gah.

Did I cry? Yes, yes I did.

But then it was leavened with enough humour (and JJ & Metas) to not feel totally gutting and it was all marvellous. All the boys were back (of course Pun Sib became a pastry chef!) The NC scenes were great (man, Sailub and Pon know how to show real desire as well as love), we got engagement rings and a proposal and hooray to Thailand for flexing its marriage equality muscles.

It was all lovely. And now I want a proper pad krapow. Without long beans. And a granita.

[all-thestories-aretrue]

Obligatory disclaimer: I am not that familiar with VtM 20th anniversary edition mechanics or the lore so like take some of this with a grain of salt (or several).

TDLR: Nara exploits Neil and his abilities by taking away his ability to consent by getting him high during their time in Baghdad. 

There is the obvious moral quandary of “one guy getting high is worth saving the world,” which may be true. That is not what I am here to discuss. I am much more interested in looking at Neil and Nara’s dynamic during this time and what it says about them. 

It is obvious that Neil cares for Nara; he loves her. It’s stated that he would trust her with his life, and he calls her beloved nearly every chance he gets. I do think Nara does care for Neil in some ways; I just don’t think her feelings outweigh his usefulness to her. She has many reasons to keep Neil close to her, and her care for him is just one. 

Time is running out for Nara and the Assamites; the Herald is rising, and she knows this. She also knows Neil is capable of having visions. These two facts culminate in her using Neil to get what she wants regardless of his own thoughts or feelings. In addition, I would argue that Nara is familiar with Neil on kalif, that she would know how it affects and impairs him given their relationship and proximity to one another, particularly earlier in Neil’s life. I don’t think it’s a stretch to believe she would know any potential dependencies or addictions Neil would have to the substance. 

I posit that kalif does not affect all Kindred the same, and that it has different potencies (smoking vs. ingesting kalif tainted blood) based on how Jubair and Neil both react to smoking in Neil’s solo episode. However, I do recognize that Neil has been on a steady diet of kalif (and who knows what else) for a few weeks at the time of his meeting with Jubair, and it is safe to assume he is not sober when he accepts the joint from Nara as he mentions having trouble focusing earlier in the episode.

Over the course of their conversation, we see Jubair take “a heavy hit” (PoN 1.5-Neil Foster 11:39) off of Neil’s joint, but he does not seem to have any immediate effects. He remains cognizant and able to carry on the conversation with Neil, and he is quick to respond to the attack. Whereas Neil is unable to follow the conversation and repeatedly looks to Nara for guidance since he is unable to make his own determination despite only having accepted the joint moments before Jubair is introduced. 

I also posit that kalif has addictive qualities about it. Whether this is true or not, I honestly don’t know, but there is evidence in PoN indicative that it may be addictive. When Nara offers Neil the joint, the comment is made, “If she gives it to me, I take it. It’s hard to say no” (PoN 1.5-Neil Foster 8:10). Later on, in episode 25, the coterie is hit with a kalif bomb, and Neil is described as an addict (PoN s2ep25 16:15). Though, this could have been a way to explain Neil’s mechanical failure. 

(As a note, I haven’t been able to find much online about kalif and whether or not it is addictive. The source I have read, provided by @peppedstep, compared it to weed and described it as a strong hallucinogen that is used for ritualistic magical purposes (Rites of Blood, pg,72).) 

Whether or not kalif is addictive, Nara knowingly and willingly gave Neil a substance that impairs his cognitive function and lowers his defenses to serve her own ends, and did so to “a dangerous degree” (17:40). I would also argue she would be familiar with the impact kalif and the visions may have on his mental health (panic attacks, dissociation, anxiety, etc.), and she chooses to proceed with offering the drug to him anyway without heed for his wellbeing. In this situation, Neil is incapable of giving informed consent (regarding the conversation, regarding the additional kalif, regarding his next attempt at a vision on her behalf) because he is already dangerously high or because he is addicted, or, realistically, both.  

Nara also preys on Neil’s people-pleasing tendencies and self-esteem issue, intentional or not, by commenting that his visions (and therefore, him) have not been as helpful or useful as she hoped spurring him to try for another vision and ingest more kalif. However, she is supposed to know Neil well, and that would include his inclination to people-please. He loves her deeply and wants to help her; he would not tell her no in this situation, and I believe she knows this.

I talked at length here about how I view Neil’s memory loss, which I won’t rehash, but it is worth noting much of his time with Nara during this stretch is quite hazy or he flat out doesn’t remember. The only other person who can vouch for most of this time is Nara, and she has more than enough reason to deceive, omit, or keep the truth from Neil. He has no way to tell if Nara is further exploiting or manipulating him beyond using him for his visions. If she is willing to take his ability to consent away in one circumstance, I would argue there is not much keeping her from taking it away in any other. It’s clear she does not take his needs or wellbeing into consideration with her choices.

This episode is the only interaction we see between Nara and Neil, excluding Neil’s visions. If these interactions are indicative of the baseline of their relationship, how much does she really care about Neil if she is willing to sacrifice his mental health, overall wellbeing, and ability to consent if she benefits from taking those things away? Is this same dynamic present in their intimacy? If Neil is constantly relying on her judgment because he is high and/or unable to remember, when does he have the opportunity to make his own decisions about what happens to him? What will happen when enabling his addiction is no longer beneficial for her? 

In conclusion, I think Nara is using Neil for his abilities and is exploiting him by taking away his ability to consent to what is done to him. Given this is the only canon interaction we have between the two, I wonder about the dynamic in their relationship as a whole and if it is a healthy one for Neil. It also makes me wonder in what other ways she has exploited Neil since she seems to have little regard for his needs or wellbeing.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Transformador de futuros

Una de las cualidades del ser humano es que planifica a largo plazo. Muchos de nosotros tenemos objetivos, sueños, metas, ideas que queremos llevar a cabo. A todos nos gusta visualizarnos en un buen futuro y generalmente haciendo lo que nos gusta.

Y puedo imaginar que Pedro también era así. Él era pescador, ese era su oficio y seguramente se había imaginado como un gran mercante de peces, teniendo varias barcas a su mando y comercializando pescados en las regiones de Israel. Todo hasta que llegó Jesús.

Jesús llegó a la vida de Pedro en un momento muy duro, donde ya no podía verle el fruto a su trabajo. Parecía que estaba atascado y junto con la falta de peces seguramente sus sueños también estaban mermando. Jesús lo sabía, y aún así le da la oportunidad a Pedro de volver a echar las redes y ver nuevamente los peces y el fruto de su trabajo.

Pero eso no lo era todo. Jesús quería que Pedro conociese que la mano de Dios era la que le daba la provisión y que sin Él sus sueños no se podrían llevar a cabo (si Dios no manda peces, ¿Cómo Pedro podía vender?) pero va más allá. El objetivo de Dios era que Pedro ahora fuese un pescador de almas, transformando así todo su futuro y planes.

Dios nos permite tener conocimiento, experiencia, una formación académica quizás y quiere utilizar todo eso para Sus propósitos en nuestra tierra. Jesús no le prohibió a Pedro que pescase, pero ahora con ese conocimiento podía lanzar la red del Evangelio a muchísimas almas que no conocían estas Buenas Nuevas. Pescar requiere tiempo, esfuerzo, dedicación, conocimiento del mar en el que se está lanzando las redes e inclusive compañía. Todo eso Pedro lo sabía y lo podía trasladar a la nueva tarea de Dios.

¿Y tú?, ¿Has dejado que Dios te revele sus propósitos?, ¿Has permitido que Jesús transforme tu futuro?

Nuestros planes pueden ser muy buenos, pero Jesús tiene unos muchísimos mejores. Con los talentos que Él nos ha dado quiere que reguemos la buena semilla. Puede ser con la música, la escritura, el dibujo, la pesca, la danza, el atletismo, el cine, la fotografía. Hay muchísimas cosas en las que nos hemos formado y que Dios no nos pide que dejemos, sino que transformemos lo que hacemos para Su Reino.

Pon en manos del Señor todas tus obras, y tus proyectos se cumplirán.

Proverbios 16:13

Amelia

Mar 6, 2024

Hace un tiempo me ocurrió esto, algo raro, pero mmm no sé… Definan uds.

Estaba revisando mis redes sociales y me habla una joven, me comenta que estudia lo mismo que yo estudié y quería ayuda… Y yo accedí (trato de ser generosa).

Llevábamos 2 meses hablando y enviando mensajes de audios y demás. Un día me invita a su departamento a comer sushi (suena típico) y le creí, fui. Ella era una joven de aproximadamente 26 años, bajita y flaquita, con pelo corto ondulado, no le llegaba más abajo de los hombros. Su color de piel me encantó, era acanelado y se sabía tenía la piel suave (como Pocahontas).

Eran aprox las 6 de la tarde, estaba tibio el ambiente, el departamento era grande, con toques muy femeninos, me gustó mucho, tenía fotografías en la pared en colores blanco y negro como también en sepia… Me gustó mucho el lugar, me sentí cómoda.

Yo me ubique en el sofá grande que tenía…lo amé era grande y cómodo, ella se sienta a mi lado con las piernas cruzadas a lo indio, vestía una camiseta blanca muy delgada, algo traslúcida se notaban sus pezones…me sentí algo incómoda, pero me relaje.

Amelia me pidió revisar sus apuntes, algunos ensayos muy bien redactados, con un pensamiento crítico muy consistente. Fui pensando que ella no necesitaba de mi… La miré y le dije «sabes que no necesitas de mi?» Y ella me dice «si necesito… A ti completamente»… Yo quedé perpleja y ella se abalanzó sobre mi…la detuve y le dije «noooo yo jamás he estado con una mujer, soy hetero» me levanté y me dispuse a ir… Me dijo «solo prueba una vez»…puso su cara de súplica… Yo no podía reaccionar bien y la seguí…

Amelia era una pequeña muy sensual, de unas nalgas pequeñas pero muy bonitas, redondas y muy duritas.. tenía unas tetas firmes y grandes… Unos labios rojos carnosos y una lengua ufff ni decir.

Me dijo ven…me senté en la cama y ella se subió sobre mi, saco su camiseta y me dejó ver sus tetas, me dijo «por favor chupame mi pezón» con una voz tan dulce y erótica, me sentí obligada a darle lo que pedía. Nació en mi un deseo incontrolable de tocarla, de lamer la, pero no sabía cómo…ella me guío y cada vez q me decía como y donde, yo me excitaba más.

Ella solo estaba en con ropa interior, un pequeño calzon blanco, se tumba en la cama y me dice «sácame esto, que me molesta mucho», yo me puse muy extraña, accedí de inmediato, levanté sus nalgas y comencé a bajar ese calzon, pude ver un monte hermoso, unos labios fascinantes, uniformes, pequeños…una vez sin ese calzon que molestaba sentí deseos por ella, no podía entender, mi cuerpo estaba estremecido, sentía el palpitar de mis venas en todo mi cuerpo, era una energía electrizante. Mis pezones estaban durísimos y mi vagina muy húmeda, como nunca. Amelia toca su sexo y abre sus labios, pude ver un pequeño clítoris, casi tímido, escondido. Ella me dice «quiero que muy lentamente pases la punta de la lengua por mis labios, debes poner tu lengua muy dura, para que pueda sentir como raspa suavemente… Hice exactamente lo que me dijo y sentí como ella tembló… nuevamente me da una orden y me dice «ahora pon tu lengua floja y lame desde mi culo hasta mi clítoris»… Lo hice al pie de la letra, muchas veces, y comencé a sentir un aroma distinto, sentí un sabor distinto, ella estaba excitada y sus jugos brotaban…tenían sabor a durazno un aroma a flores o rosas, no lo sé… Me indica que lo haga más rápido, más profundo, me dice q meta mi lengua en su cavidad y una vez allí lo único que deseaba era que ella suelte más de ese rico jugo.

Ella se sienta y me besa, saca mi blusa y me sostén, lame mis tetas y las aprieta como amansando y me dice «masturbarme con tus tetas»… Yo en shock… No sabía cómo era eso, solo atiné a pasarlas suavemente por su vagina… Pude ver si clítoris inflamado, sentir mis tetas húmedas de sus jugos y muy suaves… Era una sensación increíble. Amelia disfrutaba cada instante… Se pone de pie y saca mi falda y mi calzon, me acuesta en la cama y me comienza a lamer, me dice «estás tan húmeda, quiero frotarte», yo tontamente no sabía que era, pero le dije que si con un movimiento de mi cabeza… Ella se sube sobre mi, besa mi boca con su lengua caliente y su saliva exquisita, frota nuestras tetas y abre mis piernas, apega su vagina depilada a la mía, abre nuestros labios para que nuestros clítoris estés juntos como besandose, comienza unos movimientos en círculos muy agradables, muy excitantes, siento su húmedad y la mía, siento como por mis nalgas corren líquidos, estoy tan excitada… Ella me dice «quiero oírte gemir» yo enloquecí y me deje llevar… Comencé a disfrutar tanto y le pedía más, dame mas bebe… Hasta que explotó de excitación, mi orgasmo fue distinto, muy húmedo y su cara era de felicidad…. Me dice «me toca a mí» sonríe y sigue con esos movimientos, noto como mi ano y el de ella está muy juntos también, estimulandose con el roce… Amelia grita y aprieta sus tetas…. «Ouuuu que ricooooo… Que rico!!», y yo encantada de ver y oir, la tomo de las caderas y la obligó a moverse más y nuevamente acabamos las dos…está vez juntas… La cama estaba empapada…nuestros cuerpos húmedos de la transpiración y excitación.

Amelia era una joven maravillosa, que explotaba si sexualidad al máximo y me enseñó a sentir distinto… Amelia desapareció de mi vida sin explicación… Pero no cabe duda que fue una de las mejores cosas vividas.

Does Kirby's extended cast get underutilized?

This i something I heard a lot of Kirby fans bring up in recent years. That despite big cast of memorable characters, Kirby tends to shove them to the side in favor of introducing new ones and putting the older ones on the back burner never to be used again. But just how true this is?

Warning, rather big post ahead!

Let's take a look at almost all modern Kirby games (including spin-offs) and summarize how each of them treated the extended cast.

Kirby's Return to Dream Land - re-established King Dedede and Meta Knight as the part of the "main four" of the franchise, introduced Bandana Waddle Dee into the main cast after his role in Super Star Ultra. Introduced Magolor. Referenced Wham Bam Rock, Dragoon from Air Ride and Marx via stone transformations. Galacta Knight returns from Super Star Ultra as a surprise boss in the True Arena.

Kirby's Dream Collection: New Challenge Stages (yes, i'm going to count it, since Kumazaki confirmed that Magolor moved to Dream Land when he reformed and this is so far the only game to actually show it), - but, yeah, we see Magolor again in a fairly major role, the first time he appears as a good guy with a bit of a trickster streak to him, suggested that he stayed in Dream Land after he gifted Kirby and co a theme park.

Kirby Triple Deluxe - cameos of a lot of characters from sprite-based games via keychains (of note, Magolor and Yin Yarn got special keychains with exclusive 8-bit sprite artwork), animal trio from Dream Land 2 appear as stage hazards in Kirby Fighters, Shadow Kirby appears as the final boss of Kirby Fighters, Magolor cameos as a painting in the haunted mansion level of the Wild World, the dimensional mirror and Dark Meta Knight return after the long absence. Introduced people of the sky, Taranza and Queen Sectonia.

Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe - Taranza is featured as one of Dedede's friends and supporters on the trophies and on the title screen. It was confirmed that the game itself is set in a theme park Magolor created for Dedede, Magolor himself appears in the final, most difficult, stage.

Kirby and the Rainbow Curse - Bandana Dee is reinforced as Kirby's true P2 character, Drawcia is referenced and got a special collectible in a figurine, being one of the few spin-off characters to appear more than once alongside Yin-Yarn. Animal buddies are referenced in Kirby transformation sequences. Pon and Con get a cameo in Elline's diary as comedy show hosts.

Kirby Planet Robobot - Oh boy. This one. Well, we of course have a LOT of returning bosses from the past games, such as clones of Dark Matter and Queen Sectonia (giving us a glimpse as her original body before she transformed, adding a major lore revelation past her introduction), people of the sky and floralia are mentioned on numerous occasions in the pause screen descriptions, quite a few characters got brand new artwork via stickers (such as daroach, magolor and taranza). And the last but certainly not least, we have Star Dream which is one of the clockwork stars like Galactic Nova. While not exact same as Nova, it's meant to be of the same species as Nova and the reveal banks on you knowing that, so it's one of the most direct continuity nods in the franchise.

Team Kirby Clash Deluxe - this game features, although AU versions, but still, of Susie and Taranza, and, unknowingly at the time, the same Magolor we already know and love in a different role entirely. Although it's technically different versions of the characters, I still count it, because it's still new game and new story that uses familiar faces.

Kirby Star Allies - i will die if i try to list everything this game has. but let's just say pretty much every mainline kirby game (and a lot of spin-offs) were referenced in some capacity, and 90% of major characters of all mainline kirby games are accounted for and PLAYABLE in this one.

Super Kirby Clash - Magolor is once again is the shopkeeper, AU Taranza and Susie have major roles once again, au version of NIGHTMARE of all characters is the main villain, technically making him the first antagonist since Dark Matter to appear in more than one game, King D-Mind returns by the virtue of this game being a sequel to the original Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, Galacta Knight re-appears as Aeon Hero, hinting at his origins.

Kirby Fighters 2 - Magolor and Gooey are playable characters, implied to be a part of Kirby's inner friend circle on the level of Bandana Dee, Meta Knight and King Dedede. The first spin-off to include playable characters outside of the primary main cast. Several newer characters such as Flamberge were referenced via unlockable costumes, as well as appearing (alongside her sisters) as stage hazards on the Jambastion stage.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land - this is perhaps the first Kirby game on this list where I can't say they concerned themselves with referencing the past much. But that's kind of the point, Shinya Kumazaki described Star Allies and Forgotten Land as "sister games" and in this sense, you can say that SA got all the unsubtle continuity and references, while FL is definite step towards new original direction. However, it's still got a lot of subtle connections AND UNEXPECTED canonization of Morpho Knight. A character that was literally introduced a GAME AGO. It's also been heavily alluded that the civilization formerly inhabiting the New World is heavily related to the (eventually) Halcandran ancients, giving us a genuine glimpse at their culture. Even then, this game is the exception that proves the point. Lack of references and fanservice, or major character comebacks is this game's specific weird factor, not the rule.

Kirby's Dream Buffet - this is similar to Star Allies where there's a LOT of references to past games. You can pretty much dress up Kirby as almost every character in the series, including the likes of the Mage Sisters and newly introduced Elfilin from Forgotten Land.

Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe - Merry Magoland introduces masks which not only make it so all of the dream friends and helpers from Star Allies cameo in this game, as well as new characters from the Forgotten Land, they also make it so this isn't exclusive to purely playable characters. Giving us masks of Hyness, Queen Sectonia and Leongar. Magolor Epilogue is one huge mode focused on Magolor specifically, the first time such luxury been given to someone outside of the primary main cast. Said mode also references and alludes to a lot of games (including Dream Collection), as well as tying it towards Kirby Clash games in another unexpected continuity moment.

As you can see, not a lot of these roles are major, but it's not the main point I'm trying to come across. HAL remembers about these characters and definitely knows that fans love them and want more of them. It's simply the matter of building up the series from ground up after what essentially amounted to big hiatus in the 00s. Returning characters in another mainline game just right after they were introduced would be a tacky move that would be way too safe and complacent. Building up the cast was the right move and they are slowly but surely started embracing it more and more over time. Forgotten Land is distinctly only game in this list that mostly avoided direct returns and callbacks and it still got Morpho Knight.

¡Por fin termina el año y viene mi época favorita! Crear el vision board para empezar el año con todo. Pero te estarás preguntando ¿Cómo hago un vision board? ¿Cómo funcionan?

Pues deja de preguntar porque yo te voy a dejar, hoy y acá, una pequeña guía por mí para hacer un vision board.

Todo esto está basado en mi experiencia y de algunos de mis seguidores o personas en internet. Recuerda que en si, no hay una forma "errónea" de hacer un vision board pero si hay pasos que si o si debes seguirlos. Por favor, déjame saber si estoy mal en algo o tu forma de hacerlos! Comencemos.

Parte 1: ¿Qué es un visionboard?

ꔫ Un vision board o también conocido como "tabla de visión", se erige como una poderosa herramienta en el contexto de la ley de atracción. Su eficacia radica en la combinación de la visualización y focalización de pensamientos positivos hacia objetos u objetivos específicos.

Esta técnica implica la creación de un tablero -físico o digital- que actúe como collage visual de sueños, metas y deseos. Dándote motivación para cumplirlos.

Parte 2: ¿Cómo utilizo un vision board?

ꔫ En un VB puedes incluir imágenes, palabras claves, frases o cualquier elemento que represente tu meta, pero aquí te dejo una pequeña guía rápida:

Claridad de objetivos: Identifica tus metas, tienen que ser claras y bien definidas. Puedes dividirlos en diferentes partes como economía, salud, estudios, etc. También es importante la claridad con la que visualizas una imagen, que te hace sentir o pensar. Ya que esto es muy importante a la hora de manifestar, osea, si quieres tener paz, pon una imagen que te de paz. Si quieres manifestar un celular, no pongas cualquier imagen, sino la imagen del celular que tu deseas.

Organización: Tiene que ser un collage organizado y entendible. Recomiendo organizar según las relaciones que tienen para una mayor comprensión.

Hacer el collage: Puedes hacerlo en cualquier sitio, en canva, picsart, imprimir las imágenes y luego pegarlas en una cartulina o cuaderno.

Ubicación visible: Colócalo en un lugar donde siempre esté a la vista de forma diaria.

Acción constante: No dejes todo a la visualización, tu también puedes accionar para que esos deseos se vuelvan realidad. En lugar de ser "voy a esperar por eso" cámbialo a "ustedes esperen porque voy a seguir adelante para obtener eso".

Imágenes: Tienen que ser imágenes desde una perspectiva tuya, como que tu ya estas en ese lugar o ya tienes ese objeto. Tienen que inspirarte o darte valor, no sirve tener una imagen que te recuerde cosas malas o te ponga triste.

Afirmaciones: Puedes acompañarlo con afirmaciones que tengan que ver con tus imágenes, puedes ponerlas atrás de la imagen (si la imprimiste o recortaste) o escribirlas en cualquier lado, lo importante es tenerla como un acompañamiento de tus Vision Board. Aclaro que esta parte no es obligatoria, es solo si deseas hacerlo. Aquí te dejo un ejemplo: "en este 2024 voy a...", "en este 2024 tengo/conseguí...", "yo soy...", "yo tengo...", etc...

Parte 3: ¿Cómo hago para ver o tener resultados?

Es fundamental recordar que el proceso de manifestación requiere paciencia y confianza en el timing perfecto del universo. Los resultados pueden manifestarse de diversas maneras y diferentes tiempos, dependiendo de varios factores, incluyendo las intenciones, nivel de creencia y acciones que tomas en tu día a día.

Tienes que recordar que la constancia siempre da sus frutos, y que los resultados no van a aparecer de un día a otro. Tu tienes que moverte para obtener esos cambios, reclamarlos y hacerlos tuyos.

Manifestar no significa simplemente sentarse y esperar, implica tomar medidas en la dirección de tus metas.

A continuación les dejo algunas inspo para que se guíen, pueden buscar facilmente en pinterest:

Hasta aquí sería todo, si quieren que hable de algo o tienen alguna duda pueden decírmelo! Me despido.
