The Secret of Talismans and Lucky CharmsHow to Change Your Luck
It could be your special lucky charm, or maybe an unusual object that is lucky for you. Maybe a special charm that you carry with you at all times. Your talisman brings you good luck. If you believe in it. Maybe even if you don’t believe in it.
Niels Bohr was a very famous Nobelist physicist. One day a visitor to his country cottage noticed a horseshoe hanging on a wall and teased him about his apparent superstition. “Can it be,” he asked, “that you, of all people, believe it will bring you luck?” “Of course not,” Bohr replied, “but I understand it brings you luck whether you believe it or not.”
How does this happen? The very fact that you own a personal charm or talisman of some kind shows that you are willing to take action to improve your life and to bring yourself good fortune. This willingness is part of your basic mind set, a way of thinking and acting that is part of your very nature. This style of thinking opens your mind to new opportunities and prospects. You know that you are the type of person who is usually aware of the many opportunities that come to you, and you seem to attract good fortune.
Carrying a talisman also reveals your inner belief that you can have some sort of effect on “luck”, which is defined as things that happen to you outside your control. Maybe you can’t control the uncontrollable, but perhaps you can lean on the table hard enough to tilt things a little in your direction. Or even a lot in your direction.
We have all had experiences in our lives that were way outside normal expectations and beliefs. Like the occasional telepathic communication, or accurately predicting the future, or knowing things that were both totally accurate and clearly outside the normal communication channels. At some level we know that “hard reality” may not be all that hard, that it develops some odd ways of behaving from time to time. A Talisman is one way to break through the “hardness” of objective reality.
There are two main principles associated with Talismans, the Law of Reciprocity and the Rules of Use. These two main principles greatly expand the power of a Talisman. Here they are:
The very important Law of ReciprocityThat Which You Give Freely From the Heart is Returned to You Ten Fold.
Your Talisman brings you good fortune, often money or goods. This is part of a universal circulation. Your reciprocity is to be generous and charitable, to give you’re your heart, knowing that you are part of this flow.
Laws of Usehere are the four rules for Talisman use:
1. Keep me with you.
2. Hold me from time to time.
3. Be aware of what happens when you do this.
4. Accept the good things that come to you.
This last item is possibly the hardest. When your Talisman works and does indeed bring you good fortune, it is all too easy to call it chance, or some other cause. It is essential to tune in to the relationship between your belief system and the essential events in your lifeto be aware that your can indeed bring yourself good luck.
