To ask for your experiences of cosmic ordering?

[BlackVelvetIfYouPlease]

If you don't believe, that's fine.

But every time I've tried cosmic ordering, it has worked - from specific garden wishes as a child to marriage proposals as an adult.

Now I'm at a cross roads, don't know which direction to take my life and not dabbled with cosmic ordering for years. I suppose I've grown old and cynical.

So this morning, im sat bored at home and decided to give it a go. I have placed a cosmic order for the first time in years.

Anyone done it? And stories? I realise a lot of people will think it's shite which is fine, but be nice :-)

This is all i can think of, i'm afraid!

How do you place a cosmic order? Like, what do you actually do?

It's nonsense.

Do you order from a catalogue

Like a Cosmic Catalogue?

When we needed to sell our house quickly, I did a cosmic order and it "worked". Being realistic it happened because we priced it sensibly and went for an estate agent who seemed to want to sell the house, but I quite like thinking it was to do with the cosmic ordering

Isn't it just the same as praying? Also if it works can someone order an amazing sexy man for me? Thanks.

It doesn't work - I've not had a big win on the premium bonds and I keep asking. I've found ordering on Amazon more effective (they don't do premium bond wins either but they do books and Lego so it's kind of close)

It hasn't worked for me yet..except it seems to have brought wave after wave of financial attacks!

Um, I don't think I do cosmic ordering but I do do affirmations and that definitely works. I'm an atheist, super cynical and super rational btw, I just started doing them because DH does. We can both tell when the other has been doing them too.

Tbh I think it 'works' because you're focusing on that thing you want rather than it dropping into your lap. For example if you want a new car and 'put in an order' it will be on your mind. You might check the Internet to see what cars are available, what price they are etc. You start thinking about what cars you like. You might mention it to people and someone knows someone else who sells/is selling a car. The odds are now in favour of you buying a car because you're focusing on it. But then I'm just an old cynic

How do you do affirmations?

How do you do cosmic ordering?

I'll give anything a go

Hedge - thanks so much for the IT Crowd clip. Brilliant!

I suppose 'cosmic ordering' is a form of positive thinking which can help.

Noel Tidybeard Edmonds does cosmic ordering. do you want to be like Noel Edmonds, OP? do you?

Other than the possible placebo effect of positive thinking, it is meaningless. I have tried it in the past for things that there was no particular reason I shouldn't 'receive' - eg. jobs in my industry - it had no effect at all. No amount of positive thinking (or whatever 'magic' is believed to play a part) can override certain obstacles (such as a better qualified candidate appearing for a job!).

every time I've tried cosmic ordering, it has worked

So I guess you haven't ordered an end to the Syrian war, Hillary for president, or a permanent solution to the EU crisis.

You disappoint me, OP. You have let us down.

I find Ocado more reliable.

WTF is cosmic ordering, can I order up a man ?

That's Tinder

So what about all those people who have incurable or terminal illnesses? Why aren't their wishes being answered?

Isn't this that The Secret book? There's a woman in my work has been fervently ordering stuff for a decade. Although apparently if it doesn't work it's because you don't truly believe you deserve it. Or some such wibbly cobblers.

I am about to go out on a poke walk, I am putting in an order for a Snorlax now. I will report back.

TheHodgeoftheHedge exactly what went through my head! :-D

I do cosmic ordering, but that's because I am supremely powerful and I can control the universe through the power of thought alone.

My power is unlimited but works only for the righteous. I am currently battling the evil that is Trump though my mind powers alone. I'm even turning Fox against him.

Bow before me and I may help you out. I don't have a catalogue.

I tried to put the cosmos in order once, but entropy got the better of me.
Heck I can't even keep the children's Lego tidy.
