I’m here to remind you to write an abundance log because it freaking works.
what’s that?
Okay I’ve gotten a few asks about this so here I go!
What is it?
It’s a method to be grateful about your income and to attract more abundance since when you’re feeling good about money is when it comes.
How is it done?
The way you do it is by simply write down the money that comes to you each day and say thank you for it. You don’t have to write EVERYTHING nor it has to be the exact amount. The goal is to appreciate the fact that you got money (you want to feel the abundance not the lack of it).
Now I’m going to put an example of a day in my life and how I would write it down. Let’s say today I went shopping with a gift card, my mom took me out to the cinema and dinner.
In my notebook I would write:
+60€ thank you for the clothes
+9€ thank you for taking me to the cinema!
+20€ thank you for the food
As you see you don’t actually have to be handed money to practice this method so keep an eye to what people pay for you and say thank you!
Does it work?
After the first week of doing this I was told my University would pay me back 500€ (it’s something I asked for like three months ago and thought I didn’t make the cut to receive it). After two weeks of doing my abundance long I was invited to the VIP area of a luxurious disco for free (and let me tell you, this is not the kind of things that happen to me). So, for me, it actually works and it doesn’t hurt trying out.
I feel like this concept could be applied to other things as well? Like hmm… happiness? Like for instance, you could say (about your significant other or someone else idk)
+ thank you for making me a cup of coffee before work
+ thank you for reminding me to take my medicine
+ thank you for making dinner
So this would attract more good deeds, and therefore more happiness? Idk maybe I’m wrong.
Absolutely! You can make the log about anything. I personally like to say my gratitude list after waking up so I feel like I already do that and I prefer to only track my income. But it’s a method that can be applied to more things
I saw this post a few weeks ago and decided to give it a try. Since then, I have felt much more positive, much luckier, and I really feel like I’m drawing more abundance to myself. So yeah, this method really, really works!
If you’re anything like me, you like to shove tarot into parts of life where it really doesn’t belong. So with that, why not let your deck design your morning/evening workout? Get that blood pumping a little differently every day.
I’d recommend starting with no fewer than three cards per day, but that’s up to your current preferences and abilities. Pull your cards, check what they mean, and make sure all of your Majors have been accounted for. Then go for it! After a week, add another card, and then another the next week. Replace exercises that you absolutely hate or can’t do, of course! (Disclaimer– this is aimed at people who are like semi-active. If you run marathons, this will probably feel like baby stuff. It’s just meant to be a fun bit of motivation, and not to replace medical advice).

The Hierophant- add ten reps of an exercise you still want to get better at
The Lovers- double the exercises from the card you liked best today
The Chariot- run in place as fast as you can until your tempo starts dropping

The Hermit- hold child’s pose at the end of your routine, considering how your whole body feels
The Wheel- do the whole routine a second time
Justice- if you pulled any pip cards 4 or below, pull one more card for your routine
The Hanged Man- hold the tree pose because– well, you know

The Devil- go ahead, discard whichever card you want from your routine
The Tower- pull two more cards
The Star- spend a minute deep breathing
The Moon- when you’re all done your routine for today, leave one of the cards out for you to do again tomorrow
The Sun- dance as hard as you can for the length of a song of your choosing (preferably upbeat)
Judgement- after you’ve completed all of your cards once, repeat the card that gave you the most trouble
The World- if you’d like, this card can override the whole routine for the day, and you can take a day off. If you’d rather keep it up, do all the other cards you pulled and just know that your deck is really proud of you (and I am too)
Enjoy! (Also apologies if this has been done before, I’ve just never seen it myself)
