What Each Zodiac Sign Needs To Manifest On May 8, 2023
Freeing yourself from your thoughts is what allows your soul to take over.
Here's today's manifestation affirmation included with what your zodiac sign needs to manifest on May 8, 2023. Today, freeing yourself from your thoughts is what allows your soul to take over. It can be hard to recognize that your mind may not always work for your highest good. This is especially true if you've been through a great deal as your brain is trained to protect itself — and you by default.
Often, you end up protecting yourself from the very things you hope to manifest because there is no reward of abundance without the risk of achieving it. Focus on freeing yourself from your thoughts, and visualize them as passing clouds while you can focus on what is important or disregard what isn't of benefit. The more selective you become in your thoughts, the more decisive you can be from your soul.
What your zodiac sign needs to manifest on May 8, 2023:

Cancer

Scorpio
(October 23 - November 21)

Using a stone or piece of paper, draw a heart on it and write the word 'purpose' within it. Taking a bay leaf and cinnamon, place all three together in a sachet or bag while repeating the affirmation. Sleep with this under your pillow.
Manifestation affirmation: I will invest my time and energy in my greater purpose.
Sagittarius
(November 22 - December 21)

Capricorn
(December 22 - January 19)

Aquarius
