As our concept of family changes, questions are
initiated. Does a new soul family negate
the importance of the one we’ve always known?
What will happen to the relations we share right now, our parents,
spouses, children and numerous extended family members? Many of us relate to the feeling of isolation
and lack of understanding in our light/life’s work. Does this soul family “calling of the clan”
mean it’s time to move on? To leave
those we love?
Yes and no. Yes, it
is time for movement. No, leaving anyone
you love is not necessary or preferable.
This is the age of unification.
It does not mean we are all here for the same reason, with the same
ideas or belief systems. It does not
mean our families will be left behind while we soar upwards and onwards towards
the light. We are each evolving, growing,
and moving further along in a beautiful process of synchronization. Seen from a few steps back, this is like
a practice session for synchronized swimming.
It takes all sorts of abilities, movements and paths to
create what seems to move as one and in the same direction. Some of us are maintaining the center,
treading water; the pivot point from which the rest of the swimmers extend. Others of us use powerful strokes to span
huge distances, stretching limits. Many
of us adjust and maneuver in varying tempos and rhythms to shift the terrain.
Every one of us is creating this show and necessary for it to succeed.
There have been no mistakes.
You and your current relationships mutually chose each other with
purpose. Those we spend the first part
of our lives with are our clearest mirrors and our deepest loves; despite what
you may believe. Disagreement does not
indicate distance. It is a component of
the process of self-awareness.
A natural part of this journey is movement away and we all
seek it in our twenties. This new
direction may be showing up in your life at a time a bit further on down the
path (than your twenties). The
difference now is it does not have to mean a physical move, as in, out of the
house. It is a motion towards something,
not away from anyone.
Thus begins our
expansion. Love is by no means
singular or exclusive. Loving 100+
members of your soul clan that may or not include your current family is not
divisive or wrong. It is part of the
shift we are here for – no one get’s left behind.
As you awaken, you’ll see how you can, by agreement, be in
an exclusive intimate relationship that you call love, at the same time
understanding that love is not
exclusive. Love is anything but.
Society’s imprint of right and wrong, good and bad, moral or
amoral runs deep in our psyche. Operate
at what feels comfortable if that’s where you are. Yet know that growth is uncomfortable and
today it’s vital we examine all ideas about love, relationships, sex and
family. We are stepping out of
generations of programming and everything we believe we “know” is suspect.
So, we may continue to live with our children, spend
holidays with our families of origin while we create sustainable communities
with our soul families. No one gets left
behind.
Last week, the “Calling of the Clan” brought together many
of us. That call is still being answered
today. In an effort to provide an easily
accessible space where we can find each other, a "soul family" forum was created. Here you will find discussion topics, ideas
for projects and introductions. Join us!
The world is changing because we are changing it. The experiment has been called off. In a very real way it is up to us now. We
are creating this next version of humanity with every breath; as we dream and
move and love and BE and DO.
We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.
