The art of manifesting has become incredibly popularized in Western culture since the 2006 best-selling novel “The Secret” hit stands. Based on the pseudoscientific law of attraction, manifestation is the act of materializing your dreams and desires into reality. It has been long practiced in many cultures for centuries and has never lost its potency. Many self-help books landed on best-seller lists, encouraging people to shift their mindsets and align with the lives they want.

From visualizing to vision boarding, there are a variety of ways to will your desires into existence. Some methods call for more intention than others, like the two-cup method. Here’s everything you need to know about the ancient technique and what makes it so powerful.

What Is The Two-Cup Method?

Quantum leaping is rooted in the multiverse theory that says there are parallel realities that can align where people’s desires are tangible. The theory says that If people raise their vibration, they can hop into better timelines.

The two-cup method is a quantum leaping practice. It involves two cups, with one representing the current reality and the other representing the desired reality. The practitioner fills the current reality cup with water and then pours it into the desired reality cup before drinking it. This symbolizes a shift in their focus from the current reality to the desired reality.

Water acts as a powerful conduit of energy, which is what makes this ritual so powerful. When you set an intention for the two-cup manifestation method, you are essentially imbuing the water with the energy of your desires. The act of drinking it becomes more than just symbolic. You are nourishing yourself with the intent of your desired reality, so that it can flourish and manifest physically.

How To Do The Two-Cup Method

The two-cup method is not only effective, but it’s also incredibly easy.

Step 1: Define Your Intention

Before you begin the ritual, take some time to think about what you desire and are calling in. Get clear and specific about your intentions. Note the exact details from the dollar amount you want to make to the places where you want to vacation.

Step 2: Label Your Cups

Label one cup as your “Current Reality” and the second cup as your “Desired Reality.” From there, you’ll pour some fresh water into your “Current Reality” cup and sit with all the feelings of life. Note all of the emotions that you consistently feel, including the frustrations, the celebrations, the problems and your daily routine.

Step 4: Visualize and Pour

With your hands over or around the water, start visualizing your desired reality. Feel all the feelings of your dream life, from the ease to the excitement. See yourself carrying out your day-to-day routine, with all your manifestations in physicality.

Step 5: Drink and Manifest

Now, pour the water from the “current reality” cup into the “desired reality” cup and begin to drink it. With each sip of the water, feel yourself shift into the highest timeline where everything is working out. After completing the ritual, you can practice the law of assumption, another popular technique amongst manifestation enthusiasts. This is the act of fully expecting your desires to come into reality and assuming your intentions are already set in motion. It requires complete alignment of your thoughts and actions with the certainty of your manifestations.
