Shannon's Journal Discussion

[Shannon]

if it was only self powered, manifesting $1 mil would take the average properly trained practitioner of active manifestation 1-2 decades, most likely, and be more than a lifetime for anyone else - but it must still be directed, focused and controlled.

That long? But I read that some lottery winners used visualization and intention techniques to win lottery in about 6 months.

I'm sure a lot of winners were also praying to some type of god or asking for help from numerous sources. Also basing it on astrology and lucky numbers. Maybe only wearing red when buying a ticket, or always eating noodles that day. Correlation isn't causation blahblahblah

As someone who has studied astrology for DECADES, I can tell you that astrology is not very useful for winning the lottery. It can show you the time periods when the probabilities are increased for whatever reason (helpful "energy tides"), and it can show you whether or not that is a possibility for you individually, but trying to use it otherwise to win is based on misguided beliefs.

And as someone who has studied how to win the lottery for more than a decade, and who has written some of the most effective software in the world for that purpose, I can absolutely guarantee you that no matter what you do, the odds are against you, and they will be heavily against you. There is no such thing as "lucky numbers". Using birthdays actually hurts your chances more than helping. What color you wear has no bearing at all. From what I can see, the system is designed to seem random, but can be seen to always let people win who, if you know enough about them, were "supposed to" win. And they almost always win in order to learn something from blowing all of it and ending up poor again.

I used the lottery software I wrote as a hobby, and my total expenditure in lottery tickets during that 12 years was about $50. In return I won about $137 back. It was never about winning small prizes, I wanted to see if there was a way to grab the jackpot. And as it turns out, there is. But it's so damned hard to do that I'm not willing to do it.

My lot is to earn my money. I would never have won the jackpot regardless, because of that. I see that very clearly in several ways. I also know that because if I was supposed to win, I would have won back in 1993 when I managed, with one of my experiments, to have 4 out of 6 numbers spot on, and the 5th number one too low and the 6th number one to high. Or the time I had all of them exactly one too low. And so on.

I was able to get extremely close, but it wasn't for me to win. I'm supposed to earn my money and do so by helping others. For me to have had it handed to me would have meant none of this happened with subliminals.
