The world is changing.
Old forms are being challenged and new directions are needed across all spectrums of life; economically, socially, politically, ecologically and spiritually. When many structures of culture are called to change simultaneously, a paradigm shift is underway; a change in the way we see the world and our place within it. Paradigm shifts can be initiated by scientific discovery, as when we learned that the Earth revolves around the Sun, or when we understood that time is relative. The current shift is caused by an awakening of the human spirit and the reflection that the old ways of doing things, the old ways of seeing the world are no longer sustainable.
This shift has been predicted since ancient times by many different cultures and traditions. It is a shift in consciousness, an expanded awareness of reality. If advances in quantum physics are indicators, we are acknowledging that there is no separation between the seen and the unseen domains, between the material world and the here-to-fore hidden forces that guide it. Ultimately, it is an awakening to spiritual reality, although what spiritual reality is must be defined individually. It is up to each person to determine his or her own spiritual source and connection.
Change is never easy and the challenges we face are great. Personal conflict, health issues, financial strain and Earth changes are impacting everyone in one way or another. Not only do we need new ways of looking at reality, we also need new abilities to negotiate the terrain ahead. The change in consciousness is awakening the inner resources we need for the journey. These resources are not new; they have always been there. They are part of the innate energy awareness each of us is equipped with.

Marriage for status is nice on paper, but make sure you choose your Constant Companion with hard-times in mind.

The monetary system uses counterfeit value, pretending paper money has value. It must evolve to a barter system and beyond.
The ultimate goal of the evolution of the monetary system is that we offer goods or services for what they are intrinsically worth to us in trade – a voluntary trade system.
The evolution into a barter and voluntary trade system must begin with us – even if it is just one step at a time.
