After catapulting her family into a billion-dollar empire, the \u201cmomager\u201d has been making her way across digital platforms like Weibo, Xiaohongshu and Douyin, where users are setting her image as their profile pictures and wallpapers in a bid to manifest success. It tracks that Jenner is associated with material abundance: she has an estimated net worth of $170 million and has helped the Kardashian-Jenner clan accrue billions.

That\u2019s not just good PR. I actually think that\u2019s her intentional energy work.\u201d Whether Kris is aware she\u2019s doing energy work or not, \u201cthe witches see her,\u201d Luna adds.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s interesting is that the method has largely been popularised by young Chinese people. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/kardashian_kolloquium?igsh=MWFxd3hzYXFud3RzZQ==\"><span>MJ Corey<\/span><\/a>, Kar-Jenner expert and author of the forthcoming book <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Dekonstructing-Kardashians-New-Media-Manifesto\/dp\/0593701348\"><em><span>DeKonstructing the Kardashians<\/span><\/em><\/a>, explains that China\u2019s economy has been struggling lately, prompting people to rethink their relationship to work and productivity and seek out new forms of motivation. This is the context in which Kris has emerged as a spiritual symbol. \u201cIt\u2019s a great example of the utility of the Kardashians as a metric for culture shifts,\u201d she says. \u201cWhat makes this Chinese trend so compelling is that another world power is willing to acknowledge the family\u2019s reputation for power and success \u2013 but with a positive spin, whereas here in the US, if the Kar-Jenners\u2019 success is acknowledged at all, it is often with a negative tone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span>So, is it really possible to channel Kris\u2019 energy? As Luna sees it, manifestation works \u2013 but not in the way it\u2019s often sold online. \u201cMore people need to tap into shadow work, ancestral clearing and the energetic alignment that has to happen underneath the vision boards,\u201d she says. \u201cThe ones I\u2019ve seen genuinely shift their lives aren\u2019t the ones with the prettiest affirmations; they are people who are willing to do the uncomfortable work first.\u201d Without a real awareness of what happens when you get what you\u2019ve asked for, Luna believes manifestation can become a productivity hack rather than a spiritual practice.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"embed-content\" data-embed-type=\"media-tiktok\" data-id=\"7625815739915685141\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"embed-content\" data-embed-type=\"raw-html\">\n<p><span>But for those of us who grew up watching the family on television, Kris\u2019s positive attitude and undeniable success can make us feel like our own dreams are attainable. \u201c[The Kardashians] have famously socially climbed and performed entrepreneurialism on behalf of the American Dream for years,\u201d says Corey. \u201cLike it or not, they\u2019ve \u2018made it\u2019 now and have cemented their images as institutionally, iconically powerful women.\u201d Kris in particular has come to embody the family\u2019s material power. \u201cPlaying into her reputation of \u2018the devil works hard, but Kris Jenner works harder,\u2019 she very naturally became a symbol of grit,\u201d Corey adds.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>It tracks. Kris has cultivated extraordinary wealth for herself and her family through savvy investments and by steering them to fame. From their reality shows and spin-offs to Kylie Cosmetics and SKIMS, whatever Kris Jenner touches seems to turn to gold. In these tumultuous economic times, it\u2019s understandable that she has emerged as a kind of spiritual guru, and that so many of us are seduced by the promise of abundance she represents. After all, sometimes we all need the reassurance that \u201cyou\u2019re doing amazing, sweetie!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"newsletter-inline-last\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-small\">\n<div class=\"inner\">\n<h1 class=\"newsletter-title\">Escape the algorithm!

Now, sharing pictures of Kris Jenner has emerged as the method du jour: the #KrisJennerManifestation hashtag has been used more than a million times across RedNote and Douyin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"embed-content\" data-embed-type=\"media-tiktok\" data-id=\"7621344681036746015\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"embed-content\" data-embed-type=\"raw-html\">\n<p><span>My friend and colleague Bri Luna \u2013 owner and founder of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thehoodwitch\/\"><span>The Hoodwitch<\/span><\/a><span> and author of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Blood-Sex-Magic-Everyday-Modern\/dp\/0063081458\"><em><span>Blood Sex Magic: Everyday Magic for the Modern Mystic<\/span><\/em><\/a><span> \u2013 was the first person to send me a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DWVVtauDsmv\/?igsh=MWJxNWMxaDI3YzFhcw==\"><span>reel<\/span><\/a><span> showing Jenner\u2019s new status on the scene.<\/span> \u201cKris is a Scorpio Sun who built a dynasty,\u201d she says. \u201cShe keeps her family protected, very profitable and relevant across decades. That\u2019s not just good PR. I actually think that\u2019s her intentional energy work.\u201d Whether Kris is aware she\u2019s doing energy work or not, \u201cthe witches see her,\u201d Luna adds.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s interesting is that the method has largely been popularised by young Chinese people. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/kardashian_kolloquium?igsh=MWFxd3hzYXFud3RzZQ==\"><span>MJ Corey<\/span><\/a>, Kar-Jenner expert and author of the forthcoming book <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Dekonstructing-Kardashians-New-Media-Manifesto\/dp\/0593701348\"><em><span>DeKonstructing the Kardashians<\/span><\/em><\/a>, explains that China\u2019s economy has been struggling lately, prompting people to rethink their relationship to work and productivity and seek out new forms of motivation. This is the context in which Kris has emerged as a spiritual symbol. \u201cIt\u2019s a great example of the utility of the Kardashians as a metric for culture shifts,\u201d she says. \u201cWhat makes this Chinese trend so compelling is that another world power is willing to acknowledge the family\u2019s reputation for power and success \u2013 but with a positive spin, whereas here in the US, if the Kar-Jenners\u2019 success is acknowledged at all, it is often with a negative tone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span>So, is it really possible to channel Kris\u2019 energy? As Luna sees it, manifestation works \u2013 but not in the way it\u2019s often sold online. \u201cMore people need to tap into shadow work, ancestral clearing and the energetic alignment that has to happen underneath the vision boards,\u201d she says. \u201cThe ones I\u2019ve seen genuinely shift their lives aren\u2019t the ones with the prettiest affirmations; they are people who are willing to do the uncomfortable work first.\u201d Without a real awareness of what happens when you get what you\u2019ve asked for, Luna believes manifestation can become a productivity hack rather than a spiritual practice.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"embed-content\" data-embed-type=\"media-tiktok\" data-id=\"7625815739915685141\">\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"embed-content\" data-embed-type=\"raw-html\">\n<p><span>But for those of us who grew up watching the family on television, Kris\u2019s positive attitude and undeniable success can make us feel like our own dreams are attainable. \u201c[The Kardashians] have famously socially climbed and performed entrepreneurialism on behalf of the American Dream for years,\u201d says Corey. \u201cLike it or not, they\u2019ve \u2018made it\u2019 now and have cemented their images as institutionally, iconically powerful women.\u201d Kris in particular has come to embody the family\u2019s material power. \u201cPlaying into her reputation of \u2018the devil works hard, but Kris Jenner works harder,\u2019 she very naturally became a symbol of grit,\u201d Corey adds.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>It tracks. Kris has cultivated extraordinary wealth for herself and her family through savvy investments and by steering them to fame. From their reality shows and spin-offs to Kylie Cosmetics and SKIMS, whatever Kris Jenner touches seems to turn to gold. In these tumultuous economic times, it\u2019s understandable that she has emerged as a kind of spiritual guru, and that so many of us are seduced by the promise of abundance she represents. After all, sometimes we all need the reassurance that \u201cyou\u2019re doing amazing, sweetie!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"newsletter-inline-last\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-small\">\n<div class=\"inner\">\n<h1 class=\"newsletter-title\">Escape the algorithm!
