The Colour Green – Focus, Commitment, Manifestation & Creative Power

The Wheel of Colours has 13 fields and 13 colours – each field represents a different challenge, gift or lesson which we have to master in our lifetimes and the colours in our unique wheel show each of us how we can master them best, with our unique abilities.

We are all made up of the same colours, but the colours are arranged differently for each of us on our wheels.

For example, green is the colour for focusing, committing, manifesting and using our creative power.

We all have the ability to focus, to commit, to manifest and with that to create, but the question is: How much do we trust it?

And how much do we practise this consciously to use it for our own well-being and that of others?

Some of us, usually those who have green at the beginning of their wheel, already have good access to these abilities, and probably use them regularly, while others (those with green in the second half of their wheel) have to put in more effort to nourish and build that confidence and believe in their powers by going through the lessons they have to learn in this lifetime.

Which is true for you?
You might be able to guess, looking at your life and how you feel.

But if you want to be sure, you may also order your unique Wheel of Colours from me, to find out.

If you have your wheel already and/or think you can use some help to fine-tune your trust in your ability to focus, commit, create and manifest – then I’d be happy to show you some practical ways to do that, in this article.

If you are not sure if this is true, then you’ve mostly been creating unconsciously until now. You may change that whenever you feel ready – and you can learn how to do that here.

Because, if you, like me, were raised around a lot of western ideology and rational thinking, you were most likely not trained very well in trusting your creative powers or abilities to focus and commit to manifest your reality.

And that is quite alright, as we can learn how to do that now.

1. What exactly are we talking about here?

Each of us is the CREATRIX of their reality. We might not have been brought up believing that, but it does not change the fact that it is still so.

The only question is whether we create our reality consciously or unconsciously.

Most of us, most of the people in the world right now, are still unconscious of their creative abilities and think things happen to them accidentally, or by fate or luck – but that is not true.

Every moment, ever incident, every occurrence is co-created by us and, if we wish, here to teach us something about ourselves.

In the CREATRIX School we dedicate one whole month to learning about the Universal Spiritual Laws – as they help us to go through life much more effortlessly, and even if we just slowly transition to using them, the more we line up with the powers of this universe, the more effortless our lives become.

So, one of the most magical powers we have is that of creation or manifestation.

For it, we need three components and those are thought, word and action.

The first step to consciously creating our reality is to find or create a clear vision of what it is we wish for in life.

The second is to hold that thought, to focus on it in a way that we already see it fulfilled, and then, as a third step, we listen to our intuition or inner voice, follow it and while doing so, can simply go about our days and just watch whatever we envisioned happen – realize – manifest.

It’s an incredibly beautiful process, it feels miraculous, and it can bring you a lot of joy and soul fulfilment.

*According to the wheels I’ve made so far. I will update this occasionally.
The centre represents our core, our essence, the first six fields show the colours which come to us naturally, that we are born with, and the later ones represent the colours/lessons we have to learn, often painfully, to thrive in all areas of our life.

If you’d like to find out in which field the colour green is especially important for YOU, order your Wheel of Colours now.

2. How to use your creative power wisely

Now to think that we have the power to create anything in our lives, (because we do!) might seem a bit scary at first, or too good to be true – because we’ve made this world so much more complicated than it needs to be.

But if we ask ourselves two simple questions, we can be sure that we will always be on the right track.

The first question is: Is my decision based on love and not fear?

The second question is: Is this for the highest good of all and not just coming from my ego?

The reason for this is, that if we base our decision on love, we can make wise and conscious decisions, whereas if we base our decisions, words, actions on fear – we try to protect ourselves and are guided by our ego and do not think clearly or act wisely.

And the second one should be obvious, though somehow it is not:

What’s for the highest good of all is also for your highest good – anything that in any way goes against other people will backfire eventually.

You don’t actually win when you trick someone into something.

You might feel superior for a second, but soon enough you will also have to spend the rest of your time running away from someone or protecting what you have gained, instead of enjoying your life.

And if you trick, abuse, oppress people in this lifetime, then you’ll actually long to clean up your mess in a next one.

So it is, in fact, OK to do whatever you feel you need to do now – just know that you know what you’re doing – forever, beyond this lifetime – that it is all recorded and that it does matter.

The more you get accustomed to this thought, the more you will begin to understand your life, and see where things are coming from, why you might be longing to do or be in certain ways.

You might not have a logical explanation for it, but everything is caused by something else, and often your drive to do things in this lifetime is caused by things you’ve experienced in the last.

The same way we have to touch something hot once in our lives, to believe that it hurts, the same way we have to try things over all of our lifetimes to find out whether they work for us or not – this includes being cruel, abusive, but also growing and becoming strong and peaceful and kind.

Our highest self, the part that is with us through all our lifetimes, knows it all and can guide us, if we give ourselves the grace to build a strong connection to it.

Usually, our connections to our highest self aren’t strong enough at the beginning of our lives to make the best decisions for ourselves and others, and if that is so, we have to learn the hard way, through cause and effect until we end up in such a rut, that we ask for help from above or within.

And whenever we ask for help from angels, guides, god, the universe or our highest self, it will always be granted.

But we do have to ask.

For those who don’t consciously choose to engage with this in this lifetime, it may take some more lifetimes, but through the Wheel of Colours, my work and that of many others, and also by just using your own honest introspection, strengthening your connection to the divine, you can learn all you need to learn, to live a free and easy, joyful and enlightened life — now.

So if you are ever wondering if you are on the right track with anything in your life – ask yourself the two questions I mentioned here, and you will always come to make the best and wisest decisions for yourself and others.

If you’d like to engage with these questions more deeply, the two Source Archetype Cards might be able to help you.

Because with every move we make, every decision we take, ever kind or mean word we utter, we contribute to our expansion, and with that, the expansion of the universe, or bring ourselves, our evolution and the universe to a halt.

We have free will, it’s always our choice, no harm can ever be done, that can’t also be made good again, but we also always get to experience what we create, and every thought is the beginning of a creation.

Your life is your choice, your gift – and your responsibility.

Once you take on full responsibility, you gain full freedom – as long as you blame others or circumstances, you also suffer the consequences.

3. How to use your creative power effectively

Now, if you’ve read the previous articles I wrote about the colours red, yellow and blue and if you have spent some time reflecting on your personal Wheel of Colours, you may have already noticed that some of the qualities represented by the different colours come easier to each one of us and some are harder for each of us to embody.

The first six colours of the wheel are those we have a natural connection to, they just come out of us, the ones in the second half we often have to nourish more to be fully able to embody them.

Green is my second colour, so for me, these qualities come in strongly, and have shaped my life very much.

Of course, I too, created my world unconsciously until I learned that I can actually create it consciously.

Now, although our whole world, which has been shaped by humans, in mostly unconscious ways for generations and generations, tells us that what we do matters more than what we think – that isn’t so.

There’s nothing that matters more than what we think and believe because especially our subconscious or unconscious beliefs are what shape our realities – until we become aware of this and bring it all to our consciousness.

It’s why I founded the CREATRIX School.

In it, month by month, we bring consciousness and light into all areas of our lives, so we can learn how to create our lives consciously and thus experience how we can begin to free ourselves from collective and personal trauma.

The qualities of the colour green, creation, focus, commitment and manifestation play a vital role in this.

Now, I have the colour crystal, which stands for clarity, in the fourth field, the healing field, which means that I always naturally understood how healing works. I didn’t trust that until quite recently, but I did and do know.

So I will use that as an example of how to use our creative powers, as we all have to deal with health issues in one way or another in our lives.

Maybe you can begin by asking yourself: What do you usually do when you notice pain? Or sickness? Or when something is wrong with your body?

I used to worry and fear when that happened, think I needed an outside opinion immediately to help me and would go into catastrophizing – because that’s what I had learned.

But really, whenever we experience a pain or sickness, our body is simply telling us that something is out of balance and allows us to re-establish balance and to heal.

It’s a kind and loving warning sign or an alarm.

So if we silence that message with painkillers or other medication without curing the root cause, it will simply keep reappearing in other forms until we either die or resolve what is causing it.

Now, if you don’t have the clarity I have about knowing what you need to heal yourself, then please get help from someone who does, what I would like to ask you though is to just begin to see every pain and every sickness as a beautiful gift from your body that is simply there to ask you to do what’s best for you and to make sure that all your needs are met.

You are never doomed, you can always change.

One thing that I have learned, that works like a charm, is to state your wish.

For example, when you notice that you feel unwell, instead of thinking about what could be wrong, blaming yourself, fearing what might come and feeling a loss of control – and with that energizing all these states – you can say: I am healthy. 

And repeat that thought over and over again, until you can imagine yourself as healthy – even while you don’t feel it yet. And then you hold that vision.

From here, your body will just do the rest. But you have to clearly state what you want first and then follow the resulting urges and desires that come up in you and learn to find a good communication with your body to understand them.

And this is precisely how every manifestation works.

You notice a desire, you think about something, and when you find something that you’d like to go for, you state that wish.

And then you also have to follow the leads that are presented to you in order to make it manifest in reality.

It’s thought, word and action. You always need all three. And you can use this in every situation.

4. Using your creative power for love and relationships

Whatever we give our thoughts and energy to, we create.

Again, this might be contrary to what many of us have been brought up to believe, but that doesn’t make it less true, and you can simply try it for yourself and see how well it works.

If you fear or worry about something, you create that. If you’re upset about being alone, you still create more of that.

It’s why people say things like: “I’m a pessimist and unfortunately, I’m right most of the time.”

They create their reality, and they made a choice to create a bad and disappointing one.

Now, often a person who says and thinks this way, does not know that they have a different choice because they’ve been raised in an environment where other people were pessimists as well and because they surround themselves with more people who hold the same vibration and that masks the fact that it was a choice, as it seems like a given, but a choice simply means that you can change it whenever you realize that you can.

It doesn’t matter what you did until now, the second you change, new possibilities open up and that is all that matters.

Whenever you notice people or yourself say: I’m like this or like that – begin to notice that this might be your default setting, how you’ve been raised, what you’ve experienced until now, but it is your choice to continue to be that way or to change it.

Now, a body in motion tends to stay in motion, so to change course takes conscious effort, but if it makes your life easier and more joyful, I would say that it’s always worth the effort.

So, to come back to our example, while it might seem weird or a stretch at first, to find yourself without the loving partner you wish for, and to act as if you already were with them – it will change your life and will definitely be worth the effort.

And often people say: “But I don’t want to disappoint myself by getting my hopes up!”

If you think that, ask yourself kindly and very gently: Aren’t you disappointed now? Isn’t that the state you are in now?

The second you will begin to think about how wonderful your life could be, how rich your life could be, what you could do in your life – all the joy and creative power comes to you and fills you and that alone will make you so happy that the real thing doesn’t even matter so much any more – a state that needs to be reached so that it can naturally come to you.

Because we need to be in the vibration of what we wish to create so we can match and meet.

I could tell you so many stories of how I created exactly what I feared in my relationships and also a lot of what I wished for, now, that I’m using my powers consciously, but I will spare you from the personal stories and just give you a pro tip: Think about WHO and HOW you’d want to be in a relationship – and don’t focus on the practical details of the other person.

If you think about being happy, appreciated, valued and loved and how you want to be amazed and surprised by another person, the universe will figure out all the details, and you just get happiness and what you wish for.

And this works the same way with anything you wish for – as long as it is for the highest good of all – because if it’s not, it’s also not good for you.

But to follow through you need to train and use the green qualities, to focus, to envision, to say it, commit to it and then to act accordingly and go where you are guided to go – and not to give up before it’s done.

Teal Swan used a good example in one of her videos by saying, that most people don’t get to see the results of their manifestations because they give up half way.

She explained it like this: When you walk from your door to your neighbour’s door and put one foot in front of the other in the right direction (keeping the door in sight, like you would with your vision) you will eventually get there – but it takes time.

When you give up half way because you’re not there yet, and you want to already be there, then you will also never get there.

So you’ll have to keep up the vision, not give up and keep going until it’s there, independent of the time it might take.

Be grateful like you already have it and live like you already have it.

That way, whatever you wish for will come to you for sure.

It’s your birth right. You need nothing more than to know this to be true.

5. Some more mundane examples

Have you heard about the Marshmallow Test?

If not, you can google it. In short: A person gave different children a marshmallow and told them that they would leave the room and when they came back and the child still had their marshmallow, they would get a second one.

If they ate it, they would not get a second one.

After this test, they continued to check in with the children occasionally as they grew up, and found out that the ones who committed to waiting for the second marshmallow did significantly better in life than the ones who ate it right away.

So to train your commitment and your ability to be OK with discomfort because you have a rewarding goal (vision) in mind, has many benefits that go beyond manifestation, though one could argue that that is a form of manifestation as well.

One example from my life is, that I went to Ukraine after High School as a volunteer because I was eager to learn a new language and to experience myself in a different setting.

When I came there, as the 19-year-old teenager I was, who had grown up well-nourished and physically cared for in the suburbs of Hamburg, Germany and had no idea how to live in a village, without electricity, running water, how to grow food and didn’t even know how to speak with people, I got really homesick.

It was incredibly uncomfortable, I had to go to church and didn’t want to, and generally, I felt like a baby that didn’t know a thing in the world, I spent half my days crying because I felt so powerless – but I stayed because I knew that only when I learned how to do things there I will know them and have the exposure to a different reality that I longed for – if I give up, I will not win a thing.

And so I learned to speak, like a baby, to ask for bread like a toddler, to say no to church, like a teenager and eventually, I could happily live and enjoy my life there – and learned so much more than I even dared to dream about before.

When we take one step in the right direction, when we put in some effort, however we can, we open up to miracles and make a lot more possible than we dare to imagine.

The richness I gained through this experience is really unbelievable – I watched the whole village grow up and love to see everyone from there on Facebook every day.

None of this would have been possible though, I’m sure, if I didn’t have the qualities of the colour green so present in my wheel and life, as I would surely have given up.

So, this ability to see things through, even if the outcome seems uncertain, or even if we feel helpless and insecure, is also part of the qualities of the colour green.

It might even be the true essence of what we need to cultivate to reach our goals and manifestations – the will to see it through to the end, the ability to hold the vision until it is manifest – and commit to it no matter what.

Yet, the essence of the colour green is more in the thinking, the idea, the impulse and the resulting forward motion – our wish and idea to create something to achieve something, to heal and to grow in certain ways.

To fully complete it, we need to activate the colour purple and its qualities, and I’ll get to how to do that in an upcoming article.

6. How can we train these ‘green’ qualities?

As with every new habit, we start small. We begin with something small and unimportant.

One example that comes to mind, from a while ago, is when I was talking to a friend about owls, and then I went on a walk with my dog in bright daylight and said: Oh wouldn’t it be fun to actually see an owl?

And so to every street I turned, I looked for an owl, and I kid you not, when I turned the last corner to head back home, and already thought it didn’t work, there was a paper mache owl on the fence, next to me.

It had never been there before and was never there again after – but I got my owl.

Was this necessary or life altering? No, but it builds the trust in seeing how manifestation works.

So, you can start with simple things like this to build your trust.

Just go on a walk or when you drive somewhere, think about something unlikely and ask the universe to send it to you.

And just play around with it. The idea is to see that you do actually create your reality. When you think of something – it appears – for no other reason than because you said so.

I do it with shopping often.

When I think of the things I want to buy in advance, most of them will be on sale.

The other day, the only thing not on sale was the thing I forgot to mention explicitly before going shopping.

It’s ridiculous. But it makes life incredibly more fun, and it shows you how the universe is there for you.

It does not just work for me, it works for everyone – if you believe in it and try it until it works and don’t give up half way.

To train your tolerance to get through uncomfortable situations, works the same way: you just have to do it.

And the more you do it, the easier it will become – because you begin to see that you always come out with more on the other side.

The same goes with pain. I’ve not taken a painkiller in years because when I’m in pain I rest, and I comfort myself and find out what’s causing it and this way it disappears as quickly as it came or leads me to what I need to change.

I’ve had some shoulder issues, which I’ve finally decided to heal in the last few weeks, and it’s actually changing my whole posture, so blockages I’ve been building up over the last 40 years are resolving to make new movement possible, and sometimes it hurts like hell for days.

But I’m fine with it (and usually don’t even mention it to anyone) because I know that it will lead me to more mobility in the future – and if I couldn’t feel the pain I wouldn’t know how to move correctly instead of incorrectly, like I did until now, in the way that has caused the blockages in the first place – so the pain is my guide and teacher here and if I numbed it, I wouldn’t be able to learn and heal.

I know where I want to go, and the reward is much bigger than the discomfort now, kind of like the growing pains we experience as children or teenagers. We can’t stop those, either.

They are part of what it takes to grow into the person we wish to become.

So we can really learn to love and enjoy the discomfort, instead of avoiding it, as it brings us closer to new, enriching, unknown and exciting realities.

And like I said before, the essence of the colour green is the impulse, the idea, the word that we need in order to get the creation or healing impulse going.

It’s the act of envisioning the desired result or outcome.

7. Using the colour green in your environment

So, apart from training your focus, vision and commitment to your goals, as well as the level of discomfort you can hold to reach them – to allow yourself to manifest and create what you wish for in life – you can also see how you can bring more green into your life, to support you with this.

Do you have some green clothes? A green scarf, green socks, something you like wearing? A green bracelet, necklace or earrings can work as well.

Place some more plants in your home or workplace where you can see them.

Or hang up one or more artworks, photos, posters that have plenty of greens in them.

You can now also buy one of my posters, designed for this reason, to hang up in your room or to use as a wallpaper on your computer, tablet or phone.

You might even want to paint a wall in your home green or get green curtains if you really want to push your impulse to grow, heal, manifest and create.

Bringing more green into your surrounding, going wood bathing, sitting on green fields, eating green foods, planting things, watching them grow – this all will help you immensely to strengthen your power to focus and create.

I’ve also learned, though I’ve not yet had a chance to try it myself, that you can wrap a body part that needs healing in a green scarf to support the healing or to bring people herbs, like dill or parsley, to their hospital rooms to help them recover faster.

It will definitely not make things worse, so just try what you feel called to and see the effects and how it works for you.

How do you feel now, after reading this?

What have you learned?

Do you have any questions? If so, I’d love to hear them.

And if you feel like this might be interesting for other people you know as well, I’d really appreciate you sharing this article with them.

The more of us learn to heal and trust in their creative powers – the better all of our lives will become, and the more happiness and love will be able to enter into our lives.
