Excellent works of art are created while the artist is in a state of trance. Many artists do this so naturally that they don't even realize what is taking place. However, it may not happen every time an attempt is made to be creative. Usually the best trances happen when the artist's conscious mind is set aside and the unconscious takes over. If the artist does not know how to trigger his trance state, he can have a frustrating experience when he is unable to go into a trance.

Find Your Inspiration

To allow yourself to create automatically, it is necessary to enter an altered state of trance. When you do this, you are allowing the creative force of the Universe to take over for you. Set aside your ego and give credit for the process to your guidance systems.

Inspiration for your artistic creations may come from many different sources, as long as you are in tune and aware of possible communications. You may dream an idea that becomes a reality in the finished work. You may see, feel, hear, smell, or taste something that spontaneously develops into an artistic creation.

Importance of Preparation

Just as with other forms of automatic creativity, it is important for you to take the time to prepare yourself for the adventure. Give yourself permission to be open to the creative energies of the Universe so that what flows through you can be shared positively with others. It is okay if you are unsure of your creative psychic talent or whether or not you even have one. If you are open to the possibilities, you may be surprised at what you are shown by your guidance systems as they give you the opportunity to reflect the peace and the love of the Universe. Once you know that you are ready, let the creative energies flow through you, inspiring you to create great works of art!
