Personal Relationships in the New Paradigm

We are in a time of rapid personal transformation. At any given moment, we can take a look at ourselves and see that we are not the same person that we were a year, a month, a day ago. As we change, so too must the relationships we have in our lives. 

If you have not already, it is time to throw out the book of guidelines and rules to relationships that you have been trying to follow for the previous years of your life. For most of us, that book rarely provided any  guidance that resulted in any sort of lasting satisfaction or happiness anyway, so burn it, bury it, whatever, it is no more.
 
You may have questioned why you were placed into a family unit with discordant individuals, but you made soul contracts with these embodied souls so you could have certain experiences for your growth in this lifetime. In most cases, these experiences were to act as triggers so you could heal and release long-held karmic burdens you carried for many lifetimes. These contracts are now complete -- it is irrelevant if these individuals are parents, siblings, or children -- you can choose whether to renew these contracts or not. There is no judgment on either side if contracts are not renewed. Though someone may be part of your birth family, you are not obligated to include them in your life if they judge,
belittle, or otherwise dishonor you. You have learned what you were meant to and you may release them from your circle with love if you find they are continuing to trigger you and hamper your progress toward living a more authentic life. If
you are blessed with a family who has always been loving and supportive, then you may experience growing pains in your relationships during this expansion period but know that any strains are temporary.
 
In your friendships, you may have noticed that the further you moved along your path of spiritual growth that some, even most, of your friends disappeared from your life. As we raise our vibration, those that no longer resonate with our more authentic self fall away because the activities and conversations you once had with them no longer fit. Do not feel obligated due to history or habit to continue with friendships that no longer feel right. It does not mean in any way
that we are better than them for living at a higher vibration level. Everyone is living in the vibration that is perfect for them and some of the people from your past that you once seemed to outgrow may actually reappear in your life
again when their vibration expands. The bottom line is that those who are meant to be in your life will be.
 
In romantic relationships, there is a tremendous shift going on. Long-standing partnerships are transforming or
ending. I know many singles of various ages here in the US that have long ago thrown in the towel with regards to finding the perfect partner for them. However, now is the time to stop playing it safe and send out the signals that
they are ready to fully experience love and sex as it was always meant to be. Sexual energy has for so long been a shameful thing but that is only because the sacred aspect of sexual energy has been hidden for so long. It is time to shed that shame and embrace all aspects of who we are, even those sides that were considered taboo under the old paradigm. It is time to love ourselves fully and open ourselves to fully love another. Yes, those first steps can be scary but we are now in the age when we are meant to overcome all of our fears, in whatever form they may be. So even if you have repeatedly experienced failed romantic relationships in the past, release past hurts and disappointments and allow
yourself to love. You may just find yourself with a romantic partner better than you could have imagined.
 
Do not force relationships new or old. Allow the people in your life space for their growth. You will not miss anything
by giving people the time they need separate from you. It is important to not allow anyone stuck in old paradigm thinking to place doubt or expectation in your mind about any new paradigm romantic relationship you are in. Trust your instincts over what the mind might try to tell you. If any relationship does not feel right, then it is not for you and opportunities for new better relationships will appear when you are willing to let go of the relationship that is not working. Allow yourself to expand and grow in all ways and the right people will be attracted to you and will support you and stay with you on your journey.
