The Law of Correspondence

“As above, so below. As within, so without.”

Our 4th Law of the Universe is The Law of Correspondence. In this realm, we consistently experience patterns and cycles that create the reality of our human experience. The Law of Correspondence says that whatever vibration we are currently dwelling in, is what will create our reality. For example, if you are worried about money, that is the reality you are creating. You are creating a reality where money is an issue, a reality of lack and not one of abundance. Think about it like a relationship. In this example, using money, think as if the money was your significant other. If you were always sending out vibrations to your partner of scarcity, afraid to lose them, and yet they were never enough, eventually that neediness and lack of appreciation of what they are would push them away entirely. Reframe the way you think and feel about money. Give gratitude for each dollar you have, and thank the Universe for blessing you abundantly and watch things change.

There are certain vibrations that are considered very low frequencies, such as fear, jealousy, & pride, (and many others) but my personal belief is that all of these low vibrations are actually fear at the root of it. When you feel fearful of something, you should first ask yourself ‘why am I fearful of this thing?’ And ‘is this really true?’ I believe it’s smart to think several steps ahead, however you cannot plan for every possible outcome, so why concern yourself with the worst possible outcome, especially when it is unlikely to happen? Anxiety is fear of the future, and depression is fear from the past. Why must we be so anxious of what is to come, before it has come to pass? If the future is really so fearful, why should we put ourselves through the pain more than once? Same goes for the past, if the past was so dreadful, why should we constantly put ourselves through the pain of the past? These are things to consider when we are striving to balance ourselves to align with a healthy vibration. If you are struggling with pain from your past, I highly encourage you to do some meditation, seek out a life coach or therapist to work through your blockages that may be hindering you from excelling right now.

The Law of Correspondence simply says that you are telling The Universe how to communicate with you. If you are angry, The Universe responds with anger. If you are happy, The Universe responds with happiness.

Yes, it really is that simple… so why does it seem so difficult? My answer is simply that humans are complicated creatures. While I believe fear is not a good vibration to operate on, I also encourage you to not be afraid to feel your emotions. Feeling and expressing your emotions is healthier, rather than bottling everything up. When you bottle up emotions, you are storing so much unexpressed energy, I truly believe this is one way cancers and other health problems can occur. Not to mention bottling up emotions can cause you to explode, rather than handling issues rationally.

I’m sure you have heard people say “People will tell you how to treat them, so listen.” And that is truth for humans as well as The Universe. It’s always listening, feeling. The Universe communicates through vibrations, so send out those vibrations of abundance, open yourself up to receiving, and watch yourself begin to receive.

Neville Goddard said to tell The Universe what you ‘Don’t want’. At first glance, that seems counterintuitive. So, The Universe needs us to use reverse psychology?

Kind of.

Want = Lack in the language of the universe.

When you are ‘wanting’ something, that is communicating to The Universe that you are lacking, you are without it. So saying you ‘Don’t want’ is saying you already have it. I encourage you to try it on something simple and small, and yet something out of the ordinary for you. See if it works for you.

The Law of Correspondence literally means that the Universe will respond to you equally as you respond to it. Start your day with thanks and gratitude towards The Universe for the abundance of blessings that you have received even if you have yet to receive them. Even when troubles come, thank The Universe for the good and the bad. Watch your words, as they are constantly creating your reality.

Lao Tzu said it perfectly:

“Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.”

Think before you respond, and watch what you’re feeling. Most of the time, it is not what is outside of us that is holding us back in what we are trying to accomplish in life. It is what is within us that is holding us back.

So wake up, smile and thank The Universe for blessing you with abundance and health. Remember to breathe and stay present, not to fret about the future unnecessarily. The Universe truly has your back. Remember, you get to tell The Universe how you want to be treated. So tell it.
