How Can I Find Work I Feel Passionate About?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Rob, who asks about following your natural passion. He’s heard if you want to generate money, you just need to do what’s natural and money will be a by-product of that.
The Council replies that you must do what makes you happy. When you’re in the vibration of happiness, that vibration includes money, it includes abundant health, it includes growth in every direction, and it includes abundance of every kind. Everything must be done from the vibration of happiness.
Rob says he’s always been shy, physically weak, has concentration issues, maybe he has an attention disorder, and all these things make a normal occupation seem unrealistic. The Council suggests rather than thinking less of yourself for creating these limitations, you created them for the purpose of working through them, changing them, being happy, and being successful.
Rob says he chose an easy program in college because he was unsure what to do and he feels this has limited his success at getting meaningful jobs. The Council says every job is meaningful if you’re grateful you have it, you grow from it, and you can have more. It’s up to you to look at whatever job you create and make sure you love it and that it feels good to you. It’s not about what your parents or your friends think is meaningful. How does it feel for you?
Rob says he has no specific skills, experience, or connections and has a warehouse job he dislikes. He feels the universe is encouraging him to leave this job sometimes because it continues to get more difficult in various ways. The Council says this is a sign. If you don’t follow this sign the universe will step in and make your job a little more difficult. If you still don’t follow these signs the universe thinks you’re not getting the message and maybe you’ll have an accident and can’t go to work for a couple weeks. The universe wants to know what else it can do so you get the message to get out of this job and trust there will be something else.
Rob asks The Council’s advice for someone in his difficult position and The Council says you’re not in a difficult position. You’re in the exact position you wanted to be. You created your life so you’d be in this position. It’s time for you to make a change. We suggest you look for work outside. This is the next step you wanted. You’re in transition. Nature will give you a lot of new energy and bring you new ideas. When you’re grateful for what you have, when you accept the change and trust you can accomplish so much more, it will come. There are no menial jobs. Every job is needed. Believe in yourself and you’ll find a new job.
Rob says perhaps there are examples of what the Seth material refers to as probable selves that are more successful and I can get ideas from them. The Council says there are many you’s in different past, present, and future realities. If there’s something you’d love to do, meditate on it or write down what you’d like. In another life you’ve done it or this desire wouldn’t be here. Pretend to see what that life is like so you can connect with a part of your other self and bring that information into this reality so you can do that here. The information is there.
You are an intelligent being. You’re a spirit who came into this life creating all kinds of stuff and if you need help from angels, they will come. If you need to connect with your higher self, you will. If you need to connect to the many parts of you that are in other realities and on other planets, you will. You’ll raise your vibration. You’ll be excited about life. You’ll love that there’s a new part of you that’s waiting to develop and you’ll call it in.
The Council closes by saying Rob is on his path and asks him to be excited he’s in this reality. No matter what you created in this lifetime, whether it’s something to be grateful for or if it’s challenges, it’s all wanted. And you’ll find your way through it, help will be there, you’ll love yourself, and you’ll go on.

Am I On the Right Track with My New Relationship?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Sarah, who says she’d like to understand where she’s at with her spiritual development and current events in her life. Sarah says she’s done a lot of work on herself and feels very connected to herself and spirit. But she’s always concerned she’s coming from her ego, fooling herself, and making choices for the wrong reasons.
The Council asks Sarah if her concern is coming from her head or her heart. If you truly believe you’ve done a lot of work on yourself and you’re growing, your doubting would be an old pattern you’re here to learn about and let go of. When you need to make a decision get out of your head and into your heart, ask the question, then go into your solar plexus and see how you feel. Your higher self will communicate to you through the way your feel in your solar plexus. Was your doubting and the idea of being in your ego taught to you by someone? Why aren’t you relaxed enough to think, I’ve made a change and learned different things. It’s time for you to come to a place of trust and being at peace within yourself.
Sarah says a large change may be coming into her life due to a recent serendipitous meeting. She had feelings of home and recognition when she met this person although they’re very different. Creating a relationship will have many obstacles and she’s curious what’s happening here. Does she feel so sure about this person because the relationship is pre-planned?
The Council says the situation involves two spirits recognizing each other. That’s the familiar feeling. It was pre-planned to meet each other, to come into each other’s life and be helpful, but it wasn’t pre-planned to be a romantic relationship. A romance is still possible if you both wish to take your relationship in this direction. But The Council repeats what was pre-planned was to come into each other’s lives and be helpful to one another. You will recognize each other by a familiar deja-vu feeling. Sarah says she can’t see a way she’s fooling herself, but is she. The Council replies, not at all.
Sarah says she feels confident she wants to create a relationship with this person, but it’s going to be a little daunting due to the distance involved. She asks if they’re on the right track and if these obstacles will resolve themselves? The Council says you’re on the right track by meeting and recognizing a familiar feeling. In your friendship see where this takes you. What do you bring to each other? What are you learning? Then see if both of you want more than the friendship, or is it just a coming together to learn about life.
Your relationship will be what you want it to be, but it’s necessary for both of you to do the inner work. And it’s necessary, as you create whatever kind of friendship or relationship you desire, to come from the vibration of joy, of happiness, of positively knowing you can have whatever you desire by visualizing it. Go slowly with this relationship and enjoy what you have together.
You are on your path and will find your way by being excited you’re in this reality. And no matter what you created, whether it’s something to be grateful for or if it’s challenging, it’s all wanted and you’ll find your way through it and grow. Help will be there. You’ll love yourself and you’ll go on.
Listen to the entire 6-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Sarah and the rest of us. And let us know what you feel about the session, or feel free to ask an unrelated question.

Why Do I Have a Negative Relationship with My Stepmother?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader who goes by the name, Distressed, who asks why they have such a negative relationship with their stepmother. It seems she’s always filled with anger and negative energy toward everyone and I always feel fear when I’m around her.
This situation is familiar for both of you because you were brothers in another lifetime. In that lifetime your stepmother was your older brother, was quite angry and violent, and took it out on you and you would run away from him. Although your brother cared for you in his own way in this other lifetime, he didn’t understand his behavior wasn’t positive and didn’t understand why you wouldn’t be close with him.
In your current lifetime the two of you decided to come back in and your stepmother would be angry again and you wanted to see if you were able to show kindness to your stepmother and try to understand. All that was wanted in spirit from both of you was to be in each other’s presence and try to understand what the other person was going through.
That doesn’t mean you need to be abused in this relationship, but knowing there was anger from another lifetime should be helpful. Know you’re trying to help your stepmother work through this anger and learn that even though someone is angry and negative with everyone, you would still be kind.
Distressed asks what lessons they’re meant to learn from each other. The Council says acceptance and love. No matter what, show love and try to turn the situation with your stepmother around. But don’t show love with expectations. Just show love. Whether your stepmother choses to grow and learn from your love is her spirit’s job. How does your spirit grow from the love you try and show? It was planned that you’d discover love no matter what else happened in your relationship. Allow the other person to be who they are and just accept them that way.
Distressed asks how they can improve their relationship with their stepmother? The Council advises not to expect the stepmother to change right away. But instead of running away in fear, which is how you handled this situation in your other lifetime, stay short periods of time and try to be pleasant. Listen to what your stepmother says and try to understand how her words affect her and how she sees her circumstances. All you need to do is try and understand and eventually your stepmother will notice what you are doing.
The Council says perhaps learning about what you experienced in this other lifetime will help you be more patient and understanding in your current lifetime. As you become more patient and understanding, your stepmother will change.
You are on your path and will find your way by being excited you’re in this lifetime. And no matter what you created – whether it’s something you’re grateful for or something that’s challenging – you wanted to experience all of it. Help will be there for you, you’ll find your way through it, and you’ll grow.
Listen to the entire 6-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Distressed and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel about it, or ask your own question.

Concerns About a Loving Relationship
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Frances, who says she recently entered into a relationship with someone I’m falling in love with. He’s a lot of what I’ve prayed for and I feel this is a deep soul connection. To be honest, a part of me is terrified. I’m used to being independent and his presence in my life is throwing me off kilter. What if I lose myself?
What if you don’t lose yourself, says The Council. What if you learn to grow? What if you make room in your life to have this man come in – which was planned – and you grow together? Isn’t it better to think about your situation this way?
Frances says she has life goals that she’s afraid will get derailed. Also, he’s very Christian and I’m very spiritual and not Christian. The Council says wouldn’t it be wonderful if this man shared your life goals and you taught him about what you’re interested in while he taught you about what he’s interested in?
The purpose of coming together is to let another person into your life and share it. This wonderful relationship that’s come into your life because you’ve attracted it has you worried. You can stay in your box, follow your goals, be independent, and find other different paths to learn from, but you’ve pulled in a wonderful partner to share your life with and grow from this.
Frances says she and this man come from different cultures and his values are more conservative than hers, but she loves him. The Council asks if she loves him enough to show him true love by allowing him to be who he is? To see his life and welcome him into yours? Can you love him enough to allow him to be him and you to still be you? Why must you get lost in this? This relationship is something to be shared. Allowing this man into your life without trying to fix him, change him, or have certain rules he must follow. That is the truest sense of love.
Frances asks how she can overcome her fear of getting lost in this person and their relationship? The Council asks if she’s done the work of being grateful this relationship has come into her life? Do you imagine this relationship the way you want it to be? Do you concentrate on his wonderful traits that you’ve described? Are you concentrating on what you bring to this relationship? If she does these things it will help her overcome her fears.
Frances asks how she’s meant to grow from this relationship? The Council says by not being independent. By being willing to share the good times and the burdens. By being willing to go down a path that may not seem like what you have planned even though it is what you planned. Do you trust yourself enough to know what you want and go on this path and create this relationship as you go? Doing this work will help you see this relationship go the way you want.
Of course there will be bumps in the road, but those bumps are there to help you both learn to grow. Instead of looking at this relationship in fear, think of it as jumping up the ladder of spiritual growth. Take this chance. This spirit agreed with you to try this out and help each other grow.
Frances asks if it’s possible to create a life and a family with this man without losing sight of what she wants to accomplish in this lifetime? The Council says this is up to Frances. It depends on whether she allows herself to lose sight of these things, but there’s no reason this is necessary. You will have what you want, and more, because this other spirit will bring more to the relationship.
Frances asks why she fell for someone so different from her. The Council reminds her of the saying that sometimes differences are attracted to each other. The differences will bring more into the relationship. It will cement it and help it’s growth. But The Council says in reality you are both spirits who want to learn there aren’t any differences.
Both Frances and the man she loves planned to be independent in this lifetime, but not alone. You have both gone on your different paths and have different ideas about how you want your lives to be. It was agreed you’ll both be so sure of everything, happy and successful, then you’ll meet and bring all your ideas into each other’s lives and see how you handle it.
This will take you further than either of you would go on your own. What you’d imagined will change because you’ll both come from different points of view. You both wanted to have experiences before you got together and then have more experiences after you get together. The learning path widens and continues in a new direction.
The Council says the two of you met in a past life on the English ocean liner, The Lusitania, where you had a fun but short relationship. And from this relationship you both wished to come together in your current lifetime to see how you would expand the vibration of love.
You are on your path and will find your way by being excited you’re in this lifetime. And no matter what you created – whether it’s something to be grateful for or something that’s challenging – you wanted to experience all of it. Help will be there for you, you’ll find your way through it, and you’ll grow.

How Can I Re-Fix My Teeth and Jaw Problems?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader who goes by the name, LongJourney, who says growing up I had terrible teeth. I was teased about them and would cover my mouth every time I smiled. When I was 20 years old I got braces and when the braces came off I was told by many people I had an awesome smile. I finally felt more confident and had something about myself to love.
I’m now 37 years old and my teeth have misaligned, my jaw is clenching, I look different, I can’t chew or close my mouth properly, and I’m scared my teeth are chipping away. I feel the one thing I loved about myself is being taken away from me.
The Council asks who is taking your beautiful smile away from you? When your jaw tightens it’s because you have a certain idea about how life should be. You’re not flexible in your thinking. Why do things need to be a certain way?
The reversal of your once beautiful smile is something you wished to experience when you were in spirit before you came into this lifetime. You wanted to find a way to love and enjoy yourself, which you did at the time your braces came off. Now that your teeth have shifted your spirit says, can I still love myself. I did for a long time. Why would my teeth shifting make me lose that love for myself?
You can fix this problem by beginning to think of all the times your braces made you look beautiful. Go into the memory of what this felt like. Instead of being in fear and anger that your teeth have shifted and something has taken away your beautiful smile, you – in spirit – are taking your beautiful smile away so you can learn for yourself the love that’s within you.
Appreciate the time you had feeling good with the smile you loved. Remember this thing and think about it, not demanding it has to be that way again, but in a gentler way where you’d like to create that again. The Council says if you feel thankful you were able to have braces, and thankful for being shown the love within you, and if you can stay in that wonderful vibration the right team of people will come into your life to fix your jaw and teeth and you’ll have that feeling of love again. But you have to create this at a vibrational level first.
You wanted to come into this lifetime to learn that love and beauty is within you. Understand it’s not the way you physically look, but in appreciating yourself. The way you planned your life, your higher self allowed you to get that feeling of love so when you came to the part of your experience where your teeth misaligned again, you had those loving memories you could remember and go back to.
LongJourney asks if her mouth problem is related to past lives. The Council says in Egypt as a young child you had rotten teeth yet you were very happy and your teeth never seemed to make you feel bad about yourself. In your current lifetime you wanted to see how you’d handle the same problem. Would you be as happy and free with almost the same physical problem as you were in the lifetime in Egypt?
LongJourney asks if these problems are caused by past life or spiritual issues, how can I manifest them to a lesser degree? The Council reminds LongJourney to go back to the time when the braces fixed her teeth and remember what this felt like. Now you must find the answer of how to love and feel good about yourself again, and you must find this answer before you can make the changes you desire.
Know you are the creator. You created a beautiful mouth once. You can create it again. And The Council reminds LongJourney they can never do this from the vibration of being angry because her teeth have shifted. Rigid thinking will never get you to the place where you realize there’s someone out there who’s able to give you the results you desire. Practice meditation. Go into the memories over and over and feel how happy you were when people complimented you on your smile. Things will change.
Listen to the 13-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for LongJourney and the rest of us, and let know what you feel about it.

Feeling Like I Want to Go Home, Even When I Am Home
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader who goes by the name, SoulPeace, who asks about their feelings of home. SoulPeace says a lot of times they feel like they want to go back home even when they are already home. They also feel like they don’t belong where they’re at a lot of the time.
The Council says the feeling of wanting to go home is the feeling of wanting to experience what you are when you are truly home in spirit, which is the vibration of love. Many people have the feeling of wanting to go home, and this isn’t in the physical sense of where they live. It’s the feeling of wanting to go home to other lifetimes where there was more joy. It’s also a feeling of your soul wanting to experience the feeling of what it’s like when you’re home in spirit. Do more loving things for others around you and for yourself to help with this feeling. Find a way to create loving thoughts, loving actions, and loving words.
Another part of you would like to go home to a different galaxy. The Council sees you’ve had one or more lives on the constellation, Sirius, and they suggest you read about Sirius. Be around water, whether a lake or a ocean. Have pictures of great bodies of water and dolphins around you. This is what you experienced in your Sirian life.
When you experience this natural longing to go back to a life on Sirius, with this thought you can begin to create a life on Sirius that you’ll be able to live in what you think of as a future lifetime. Learn everything you can about the Sirian people who are here on Earth in large numbers. The are great teachers who bring the experience of hope and love to other people. The Council adds that they believe SoulPeace will find happiness when the do this.
Visit a planetarium and perhaps get a telescope. Go out into the country where the sky is dark and you can see many stars. You’ll feel a connection to these places and you’ll feel lots of love and happiness when you realize you are a star child, also known as a star seed. Ask for dreams of these places and meditate on them and this will also bring you a lot of happiness.
SoulPeace asks if this feeling of going home and the lack of belongingness is connected to the Pleiades star system and their life there? If it does, can I do anything to contact my family there? The Council says there was also a lifetime in the Pleiades. Read about the different stars and planets and you’ll find comfort in this.
SoulPeace asks The Council their (SoulPeace’s) purpose in life and says if they do what they’re meant to be doing perhaps the intensity of this feeling of wanting to be home will reduce. The Council says it’s not so much in doing, but in discovering for SoulPeace. Discover reading about other planets and other lives. Discover the stars. Go to a planetarium to learn about the stars. Learn about the knowledge we have of other star systems and of lives on other planets. Comfort will come from this. This is part of SoulPeace’s purpose in this lifetime.

Was I Right to Divorce My Husband?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Laurie, who asks if she was right to divorce her husband. Laurie read another post on our blog where The Council says you can create a long and happy married life if that’s what you wish to create. Laurie says this is what she wanted, but lost trust in her husband because of his financial manipulations. The Council asks Laurie how she can wish for a happy life when she states that she doesn’t trust her husband? When you are in the vibration of mistrust, you could never create a happy marriage.
In your marriage were you able to appreciate how your husband was towards you? Were there things you loved about this marriage and thought about over and over? Or did it get to a point where you didn’t trust your husband, didn’t like his behavior, and felt he had the power to make you feel good or bad about yourself?
When you go down a negative road and you have thoughts like: he drove me crazy, he lied, maybe he cheated on you, and maybe he hid financial aspects of your lives – if you felt these things throughout the marriage and there’s no room to appreciate any part of your married life, you can never have a happy marriage.
If you were miserable in this marriage and felt there was dishonesty, how would you change the marriage to be the way you wanted it to be? If you were able to look at your husband and say: A, B, C was done, I see where he was coming from, I can see why he did these things, and I realize he has his lessons – can we talk about that? Can we try to understand and change these behaviors? If there was a possibility you could do this and let go of what was already done, there could have been a change in your marriage. But if you feel the hurt was so horrible and that’s all you felt, you wouldn’t be able to change your relationship.
Laurie writes that she lost trust in her husband because of his financial manipulation, his telling their university-aged children she was crazy, sharing details of their intimate relations with other people, as well as other unspecified reasons. Her husband didn’t want to go to counseling and accused her of overreacting. She told him she deserved to be treated better and ended the marriage. The Council asks Laurie if you believe you deserve a better marriage and there was so much dishonesty, why do you still question if you did the right thing by divorcing your husband?
Laurie asks The Council if they feel under the circumstances she’s described if her marriage could have been saved? The Council says if Laurie was open to a different way of perceiving this marriage, if you knew what you wanted and what boundaries could change, if you’re able to come from a place of forgiveness and love, you’d bring the vibration of change into your surroundings. This would be felt by your husband as a spiritual being and then the spirits within both of you would know whether you’re able to change the marriage based on what you both planned to experience when you were in spirit before coming into this lifetime. But The Council adds they feel where Laurie was when she was still in the marriage and where she is now, it wouldn’t have been possible change her marriage into a happy one.
The Council says now it’s wise to go back and see what Laurie has learned in this marriage. Take your focus off being hurt and off the memories of everything that happened in the marriage that was unpleasant and begin to think about what you’d like to experience in a new relationship. What would you like to experience moving forward? What would you like your lessons to be now? What would you like your communication to be like in a new relationship? By letting go of the hurt and concentrating on what you’d like moving forward, this will change your vibration so that the kind of new person you bring in will match that vibration.
Be kind to other people, help other people, send love to other people, and that’s the kind of person you’ll bring into your life. The universe will not judge you. It will send into your life people that speak like you, that think like you, that have traits like you, and together you’ll learn how to grow.
Everyone has lessons with each other. Will you be open to helping the kind of person that comes into your life and helping them grow and experience what they need? Would you be vulnerable to ask for what you need without thinking about being hurt and whatever you experienced in the past?
Watch your words. Watch your thoughts. Watch your actions. And however you can, get yourself into the vibration of love. You can do this by memories, by thinking about the way you’d like your future to be, by appreciating what you have around you now. Anything that will get you into a positive vibration will help you move forward.

Why Haven’t My Breast Developed?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader who goes by the name, Depressed05, who says they think due to malnutrition her body didn’t develop breasts during puberty. She’s tried a lot of things to make her breasts grow, but nothing seems to work and it’s taking a toll on her self-esteem and confidence.
The Council says all the things Depressed has tried to make her breasts grow have been things outside herself. They say the answer is within you. You’ll never create the breasts you desire until you feel grateful for things you already have.
The Council says Depressed created this situation with her breasts when she was in spirit before she came into this lifetime and it was to learn acceptance. They ask her to think about what she’s able to appreciate about her body in her current life. What parts of your body are you able to love? And they ask Depressed to imagine or pretend you look the way you wish your body would look.
Every part of your body, down to your very cells, is listening to what you’re thinking and the universe will give you what you focus your attention on. If your focus is negative the universe will offer you what you consider negative experiences, and if your focus is positive the universe will offer you positive experiences. If you’re miserable and can’t accept your body, and you think about these things over and over, the universe will say, “Oh, this is making her miserable and she doesn’t like the way this looks. Let’s give her some more.”
The first step is to think of what you’d like, and to do this you need to be in a higher vibration. Think about what you like about your body. And if this is too difficult you can concentrate on anything you like or appreciate because when you appreciate something, the universe will send you more things to appreciate.
Once you get into the vibration of appreciating, from there you can create the changes you want in your life. Appreciate what you have, and that you’re the creator, and that you can change your life. Things will come together to make you appreciate the way you look and your perception, once it changes, will bring you what you’re looking for. Physically you’re able to create the change in your life that you’re looking for, but not from the vibration you’re in right now. What things are going on in your life that make you feel good? Think about this and stay in that vibration.
Your situation with your breasts not developing happened because you asked for this to happen when you were in spirit. You wanted to learn to accept the things around you, accept other people, but mainly to accept yourself and to find anything that reminds you that you’re a spirit living in a physical body. You are pure energy and energy can change form. Get in the right vibration and you can begin to see this change happen.
It will help you to put on clothes, stand in front of a full length mirror, and take a good look at yourself. See what clothing you wear that makes you feel better. What colors help you feel better? What gives you comfort when you put it on and you like the way you look? Find anything you enjoy. Eat whatever foods you wish to eat and know it’s filling your body with good feelings and vibrations. You’re taking care of your whole body. Once you begin loving yourself, and doing things to take care of yourself and appreciate yourself, how you feel about yourself will change.
Listen to the audio recording of our entire 9-minute session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Depressed and the rest of us and let us know what you feel about it. We feel this guidance to find things in your life to appreciate rather than focusing on what you don’t want in your life is key to improving your life and we appreciate the way The Council lovingly points this out to Depressed.
