Understanding Clairaudience: Overcoming Fear and Connecting with Spirit
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named Wanderer.
Wanderer: Hello, Bob, Cynthia, and The Council. I have been hearing and feeling vibrations, or ringing in my right ear. It’s very prominent. I get scared sometimes because of it. I have a feeling it’s related to clairaudience ability. Can The Council please guide me on how to get rid of fear and connect to spirit and my higher self when this happens?
Council: We would ask here, if you believe this has to do with clairaudience, then you are working with spirit to help you develop this. And this is a simple question, but have you ever sat down and talked to this spirit, the one or several that could be helping you, and saying, “This is upsetting me. Can we do it another way? I don’t understand. And I want to learn, and I’m open to learning how to be clairaudient, but I find that this noise that I hear, and not knowing how to move forward being comfortable, is upsetting me. Show me another way.”
When you speak to your spirits, they hear you. They will do what they have to do to teach you, to give you the information you need. And they will find other ways to show you, because they want to bring you along that path. How wonderful is that? That’s how much control you have over this. So many don’t know, “Oh, this is going on. I don’t get it. I don’t understand. My third eye is opening. Oh, it’s closing. I’m hearing this. I’m not hearing. My throat hurts. I find myself saying ridiculous words.”
Just say, “Okay. Well I know something’s going on here, and I agree to go along with it, and I wanted to learn how to be psychic, or clairaudient, but this is not working for me.” And we can tell you that when Cynthia did this in the beginning, she was working at a day job, and she would be up all night long getting taught different things about past lives, about past situations that changed the form of the Earth reality. It was lessons, and lessons, and lessons. And then one time she got up, and she was so tired she said, “I can’t do this. You want me to do this, then you have to find a better way. I need to sleep. And almost immediately, it changed. And so we say, everyone speak to your guides. They are here, and they cannot help until you ask for it. Tell them what works, and what’s not working.
Wanderer: I want to understand the process of developing my clairaudient ability and getting rid of the fear. I also had an experience of being able to hear someone’s thoughts so clearly, as if they were talking. This could mean developing telepathy. Currently I am not able to control these abilities, but I would like to develop it, and expand on it, and possibly help those around me and the spirit world.
Council: Meditate every day, even if it’s for ten minutes. You must meditate. It is then that you connect more closely to your guides. We would say to read books on telepathy. Read how-to books that teach you how to be clairaudient, what to do, and how to learn automatic writing. There are so many ways how to learn to use the energy to heal yourself, to heal others. But read about this. Get a background about this, and then you will begin to understand, and you will hear other people’s stories about sometimes how crazy it was, and all of a sudden it falls into place.
There is no need for fear. There is nothing that comes from spirit that is going to hurt you. Just meditate. Surround yourself with white light before you go to bed, first thing when you wake up, and know you are protected. And just knowing that will bring you all the help that you need.
And who knows? Maybe tonight you’ll dream of us. And of course we have to add, you can see us every night, you can talk to us every night, you can dream of us, but that doesn’t mean you’re going to remember. But what we teach you, what you need to know, is within you. And when you need that information, you will remember.

How to Embrace Spiritual Changes Without Fear of Artificial Intelligence
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named Lorraine15495.
Lorraine: There are healers who are saying we have to remove artificial intelligence entities from our bodies by the end of July 2025, or we will die.
Council: [Laughing] We believe we passed that date. We’re fine. We are assuming you are fine, unless you think you removed something.
There is no artificial intelligence that you have to remove. You are you, a spirit going through different lessons, learning what works for you, what doesn’t work for you. You are safe.
When the time comes (and there will be conversations), there will be a learning about aliens that are here to teach us, to save us, and to help us find more intelligent and better ways to live. And so we would say, stop thinking of getting rid of artificial intelligence, and start wondering how much you will learn, and how wonderful it will be when there is new life that is willing to teach us.
Lorraine: And we have to raise our frequency to the fifth dimension. Is this true?
Council: It’s raising itself. There’s nothing that you have to do. You will find different ways you feel. And of course, the #1 feeling is that you don’t feel like yourself. You don’t know what the heck is going on. You don’t understand anything. You’re confused, you’re tired, your body aches. Those are all changes that are coming on the way to the fifth dimension. The emotions have to change. The body has to change to take on the new vibration.
And so, that’s what goes on, and you’re on you’re way.
Lorraine: And what happens if we don’t remove this artificial intelligence by the end of July?
Council: Absolutely nothing.
And so, we wish you love, and peace, and happiness on your journey. And just enjoy. Find things to enjoy, and the rest will take care of itself.

When Does the Soul Enter the Body During Pregnancy?
This post answers a question for The Council from a reader named mwolfgang47.
Wolfgang: At what point during gestation does the spirit or soul enter a baby’s body?
Council: Some souls are around the body all through the pregnancy. They’re watching what goes on in the family. They’re planning the future. There are some souls that jump into the body as soon as the baby is being born.
And there are also some souls that can take up to 3 months before they jump into the body. The body is human, it’s alive, but the soul is not in there. The soul is around it, or maybe in and out of it, and it’s just watching. It’s observing.
But the soul is always linked, we should say, with a silver chord to this [baby’s] body. They belong together. And by the third month, it is definitely solidly in there.
And so we wish you love, and peace, and happiness on your journey. And just enjoy. Find things to enjoy, and the rest will take care of itself.

Why Did My Ex-Partner Come Into My Life And Ruin It?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named Zumzulis.
Zumzulis: I was writing before about a pregnancy with a person who smoked weed. I terminated the relationship, and we split. What happened after that was that he came running back after two months, and promised that he really wants a family, and we can create one.
Council: And was there something there that made you believe there was a change and it would be different? Look at what was said. Why did you go into this again?
Zumzulis: So I got pregnant again with him, and this time I regretted so much that I got back with him. He mentally abused me during the whole pregnancy and asked me to abort the child, or he would ruin my life.
Council: And so that is the second time you were in this relationship, and the behavior was abusive. And so, we would hope that at this point you would see it.
Zumzulis: I couldn’t believe that he trapped me again. It was even too late to terminate the pregnancy, and I felt mentally exhausted from the previous termination because I wanted a child so much, and we had planned it. So long story short, I have my child, and I ran from him when my baby was only 1½ months old after being treated like crap in my own home.
Council: And so, after these continuous getting back together, you have still experienced the same behavior, but now you have your child.
Zumzulis: I’m not going to get back with him this time for sure.
Council: Well we would hope so, because this will happen continuously until you get that lesson. And why would you put yourself through that over and over again? Even if this person were to come on their knees and beg you that they have changed, why would you take the chance and abuse yourself in this manner? So we would want you to be aware of this.
Zumzulis: I learned he is a narcissist. Now my baby is almost four months old, and I feel quite helpless because I am raising him almost on my own. The narcissist dad manipulates and abuses me by not looking out for the baby so I don’t have time for myself.
Council: And so, again, you are being abused. You don’t have time for yourself. At this point in your life, because of the choices you have made, the priority should not be who abuses you and what you have gone through, but how you are moving forward on a path for a different life for yourself and for your child. That is where the focus should be, not on blaming. It doesn’t matter. Where do you want your life to go now?
Zumzulis: I have sisters and a great mother, but my sisters are tired from their own kids, and my mother lives with my narcissistic dad on the other side of the country.
Council: So there’s a narcissistic dad also. So there are these interesting titles that you give to people. And yet we would say, look at yourself. This whole problem that you have is not about who is what, or how they treat you; it is about you. You are here to learn about you, what you will accept for this life, when you will get to the point where you know you are a spirit and you deserve better, and you can change it. All of this is about you, to learn about you. Take the focus off of everybody else and put it on yourself. You are capable. You can do this. You need to focus on where you want to go in the future.
Zumzulis: So when I came back to my parents, my father started abusing my mother, and I couldn’t stay any longer. So basically I have no help. Could you please give me any guidance on why this person came into my life, and ruined it, and still keeps trying to destroy my life, even if the cost is to abuse his own child?
Council: Because you set it up this way. Because you have decided this is the lesson you wanted to learn about yourself. And so, this lesson of being abused, and blaming others, and not having any help, keeps saying to you, “What do I do about it. What do I do about it?” And that’s where the focus should be.
So there is no blame on anybody else. It is a lesson that you called in, that you have created, that you wished to change. And when you get to that point, you will find where the right people will come into your life, and not think this man will track you down again, your father is abusing your mother, you know, maybe the neighbors will abuse each other. The point is to get away from that energy and know that, “I am strong, I have a child. It is my duty, my responsibility to take care of this child.” And you start to think like that. You will find the way.
Zumzulis: Another question I have is about my dreams. When I got pregnant, I had a very, very light, loving dream about my first boyfriend. After the dream, when waking up, I felt that I was free, and I will no longer have to suffer from this toxic relationship. But what does The Council say about that? What did it mean? Did the soul [of the child] that I got pregnant with save me. And what did it have to do with my first boyfriend?
Council: It has nothing to do with your first boyfriend. It is a wonderful memory. It is a dream that makes you feel good. But again, the purpose is not to go backwards, not to look for someone to take you away from this abusiveness. But look at this dream. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a relationship like that with someone? And you can find it. You can create it when you learn about yourself.
Zumzulis: I texted him and he is engaged already. I couldn’t stop thinking about him for the past couple of months. I started to feel like we broke up just yesterday, even though it’s been 10 years. Why do I feel this way if he’s engaged?
Council: Because you want that loving feeling. You think, “Oh, if their engagement broke up, maybe I can be with him. It will be wonderful.” Of course you could create that, but that is not the purpose. The purpose is, once again, what can you do?
You remember how it was. It was wonderful. You would like someone like that in the future, but how are you getting there. Do not go back into the past and think you can go into this relationship. What would you do if he married? Go into an affair? Would that be the right thing to do with that person’s wife? Would that be the kind of relationship you want? You would want someone for yourself that is good to you, that is good with you and with your child. And so going back only reminds you that there are good relationships and feelings you would like to have again. And so we would say, with this, move forward.
Zumzulis: Another dream I had was about my baby’s birthday. I dreamt he would be born on the 9th of November, and he was. Does it mean it was pre-planned?
Council: It could have been. It could be a sign that you decided that it would happen this way so that you’d know things are pre-planned. You can pre-plan, and you can take what you’re living now and plan the future the way you want it. And so take that sign as, you do have the power. You do have the availability to see signs that are sent to you to bring you where you want to be.
And so, we wish you love, and peace, and happiness on your journey, and just enjoy. Find things to enjoy and the rest will take care of itself.

How Can I Learn To Speak Up For Myself?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named Shy Girl.
Shy Girl: Hi, Cynthia and Bob. Does The Council have any advice on how I can move on from the effects of selective mutism? When I was four years old, I moved to a new country with my family. On the first day attending a new school, I was introduced to my new class, and just having them look at me triggered my selective mutism. I couldn’t speak for the first two years at school, and it took me a while to find the courage to talk.
Although I have no problem speaking up now, I often find that when I’m in a new situation or feel uncomfortable, I tend to withdraw inward and dim what I truly want to express, experiencing physical symptoms like blushing and feeling small. It’s affecting my courage and my ability to speak up when it counts the most, like in dating.
Council: And so what we see here is – of course being preplanned that you would go through this – you wanted to learn what it would be like to feel in these different situations, not being able to talk.
In another lifetime you had a stutter that affected you. And in that lifetime, you would wish that you could talk regularly, without the stutter; that you could talk slowly, and take your time, and be understood, and feel good with it. So in this lifetime you’re trying to heal that other lifetime with the stutter that was very painful.
So we would say, when you find yourself blushing or having difficulty speaking, what are the thoughts that are running through your head? When you discover what it is, you are to replace them with thoughts like, “I can speak. This is so wonderful. I am so grateful. I can take my time. I can speak, and people will hear me and understand what I say.”
So that’s why you’ve created it in this lifetime, because you wanted to feel the gratefulness of being calm, and taking your time, and just speaking. So you have created it perfectly. And now we would say, do the work. Of course, helping the body, it would be good to do the chakra breathing, especially the throat, so it would have more energy to work the way you want it to.
And just remember that whatever it is that you want, pretend you have it already. And actually, in this lifetime, you do have it already because you left the stuttering behind.
Shy Girl: Can you sense what guidance my spirit is trying to tell me?
Council: Your spirit is trying to get you to follow through on what you planned, to feel the difference, to perhaps now learn about the stuttering and compare how you would feel when you had that to what you have now.
And what you are looking for is to find the feeling of gratefulness. When you reach that point, it will begin to bother you less and less – less blushing, less being shy. You will just be overcome with gratefulness that you can speak and people can hear you, and understand, and not walk away and make fun like they did in your past life.
Shy Girl: I know that my true self is more extroverted and likes exploring new places, but my fear hinders my ability to completely enjoy myself in new situations. I want to maintain my true energy constantly and consistently, and be myself regardless of what situation I’m in.
Council: And sometimes we find there is an exercise where you look in the mirror and you speak to yourself in the mirror, and watch your eyes as you’re speaking, and how you feel. And as you begin to recognize the gratefulness of what you have, you will put that inside of you, and that will grow stronger and stronger. So as you begin the exercise of speaking in a mirror, it will become easier and easier for you. And you will see that little by little, feeling that you are shy or that you don’t like the way you speak, or that there is a problem, that will begin to fade.
And so we wish you love, and peace, and happiness on your journey, and just enjoy. Find things to enjoy, and the rest will take care of itself.

Big Changes Are Coming
This post contains an edited transcript of a half-hour private telephone session between The Council and a reader named Todd. Todd has graciously permitted us to make this session available to our readers because we feel the guidance offered will be helpful to many.
This is not the first private session with Todd that he has allowed us to make public. If you find the guidance in this session helpful, it would be nice if you could leave Todd a comment to that effect in the Comment box below to let him know.
Council: At this time in your reality, many people are going through this, where they can not believe what’s happening to some people, what they’re hearing in their head that makes them go out and attack people on the street, or shoot people for no reason.
The energy, it will swing back to where it’s not so crazy. But right now, what is also happening is that so many people are trying to shift upwards. New energy is coming in, and one of the ways that you can realize it’s going on here is that #1, you don’t understand anything anymore. Your body will experience pains. A lot of people can’t breathe properly right now. There are headaches. This is all because something new, much lighter, much happier, is trying to come in. You’re trying to evolve.
But because of where we are with everything going on around us, the body can not handle this downloading of new energy, so it is such a confusing time for people. It’s frightening. And we can always say, the thing you are here for is to come in and bring that light in now. We all agreed to this. We knew all of this was going to happen, and we jumped in saying, “Okay, I’m going to help bring it back.” And then when you get here, it’s overwhelming.
This stage now, you are not the only one feeling like this. And we ask you to find things every day, even if it’s one thing to do that brings you joy, because that vibration of joy and happiness goes out there and hits the whole reality you’re in. And more souls will feel it, so they will look for something that brings in joy. And that’s how we erase, or sort of change the mess that is going on right now. But know that there will be a turning point.
But as a spirit, before you came in, the thought was, “I can handle this. I know what I have to do.” And that is wonderful. And we would say, we have been seeing more people are taking on the practice of, every morning and every night, making a list of whatever they can think of that they were grateful for that day. And the more things you can find to be grateful for, of course, you know the way the energy works, you will find even more things to be grateful for.
So in the midst of this craziness that is going on, very soon there will be proof that there are what people call aliens here. Of course they’re here, and it is a good thing. Also, if it comes up in your conversations, people are afraid, “Oh, aliens. They’re going to take over.” No. They’re here to save us from blowing ourselves up. That’s why they’re going to be… within two years you’re going to have proof.
There will be conversations with people who come forward. You have already passed some. You are in a place where your vibration, because it’s really so high, you are in spirit mode, ready for the connection with these forms from other star systems. You have passed them several times during the day. And that is so your vibration is letting it in, is accepting it, because their vibration is very different. So you will be one of the first that will have a siting and will be able to talk. Even in a dream, what they call aliens know of you. They know of the people who are open and accepting, and not fear-based.
So you’re really going in a very new direction, and you will get information when the time comes on ways to feel better about this. You’re body, which would be a little wacky right now, do not let this frighten you. It’s just that this old vibration in the body is trying to change, and it just doesn’t know how to handle it.
So everything takes time. When you think of this whole reality, all at once everything is trying to change. The weather, the people, their bodies, their thoughts, everything is sort of upside down right now. So it’s kind of hard to hold onto the light, but that’s what you said you would do when you got here, and when you got to this point. And when there is the communication with the other life forms, a lot of peace will come with that, even though many people are afraid of it. So it’s going slowly in the right direction.
And what you can do, we find, in the evening is the best time to picture a waterfall outside your body, starting at your head and coming down all around you, to clear the energy in the different levels of your aura. You can picture a waterfall inside your head. You can picture it coming down through every part of your body, washing out the negativity, bringing in new energy. It’s a clearing out that’s really needed every night because of what is going on in this reality. It’s like you constantly have to clear it out, and then constantly think of a good thought, and how you see your world evolving into what you want.
And just know that you have the power. Nothing has changed. You have the power to change this reality. You didn’t lose it in all this chaos. It’s there, but you have to work also bringing in the new energy, getting rid of the negativity. Watch the people that you’re with. Do you talk too negatively? Do you talk too much about worrying about this or that? And when you see that, it’s part of humanity. You change it. You catch the thoughts and you change it. And you really have to hang on to the good that is here, and more that will come. There are big, big changes to come, and they will all be good. Actually, it won’t go back; it’ll get better.
And so in the spirit world, we also are working very hard to connect with everyone, to connect with your realities and make it better for you, but are you open to it? Always know we are here. We are here to help you evolve. As you evolve, we also evolve. So there is always changing. There is always growth. There is no ending to the wonderful limits that we thought were here. The way you think of it is, you’re in a good place, but these limits that you think are here, even if they feel good, there are no limits. You will get rid of them. It will change. Everything will change, and you will start feeling it in your body.
So as we’ve said before, so many people are not well right now, and don’t know what the heck happened. You know, they used to feel great, they used to do this, they used to do that. It’s just your body is like, “I don’t know what this new stuff is coming in. I don’t feel good. It hurts. I have headaches. I have aches in my body. The pressure is wrong. The sugar in my body is wrong. I used to eat this. I can’t eat this anymore.” Everything in the body is changing.
And you will begin to see little twinkles of light, which are spirits that are around. You will be able to see different shades of colors that weren’t available before. So you will begin to see little things. You will hear things like, “Did I just hear a voice? I’m alone in this room.” All your faculties, the whole body is changing, even though it may feel painful, or you don’t know what the heck is going on. It’s all good.
But be aware, when you think you hear someone call your name, or you hear a strange word, or you know, “I saw these colors out of the side of my eye. I saw a shadow moving.” Because you’re beginning to see other spirits. It’s all good. Some people will be so upset when this happens, and yet we say, just go with it. There’s no harm coming. Nothing bad will happen. This is all about big changes coming that we are open to and that we want.
So with the pressure, you know you can do that breathing where you breathe in for the count of eight, hold your breath to the count of four, and then breathe out for a count of eight. That brings the blood pressure down. You can help with your diet. More sleep is good, and walking is good. Anything that you enjoy sort of pushes you in the right direction. So look for funny things. Look for things that make you happy. And that’s the way you get through this.
The very, very best thing you can eat – and we know many people don’t like it – for your blood pressure, for your heart, for your stomach, for your brain, for everything that goes on for your brain – are beets. If you can eat beets, you’re on your way to feeling really great. That’s going to correct everything. Yes.
And know that eventually you will have proof that there are other people from realities, we would say people from realities that show up here, and it’s good. It is a good thing. Keep that thought. They will bring higher energies with them. They will bring things to teach us, to save this planet, and how to stop a lot of this chaos that is going on. They are coming in now because it has gotten so bad. They have always been here, but it will come where people will actually see them and will hear what they have to say. It’s a wonderful time.
And so when you walk down the street, look at the people, the strangers that pass you, and just tell yourself, that’s a spirit, and that should make you feel good. All these people around you, we’re all spirits. We’re all here for the same reason. It’s a wonderful thing, and that will lift your energy. It’s not just another body passing by. It’s a spirit who, like you, said, “I’m going to jump in.” We’re not here to destroy it. Everybody who jumped in said, “Okay, when it gets bad, I’m going to hold that light. I’m going to do everything to change it.” And then, as you live your life, you make your choices.
Who can do it? Who’s strong enough to somehow remember, or just to say, this is not what I like. I want my world to be the way it was, or even better. But as you walk down, or are on a bus, or a train, or a plane, and you just look at these strangers, and you smile to yourself, “Hey, we all know each other. We all said, “Yep, we’re coming in.” And bless them. In your mind bless them that they are strong enough to hold on to their light, and you’re all helping each other. It’s a wonderful thing.
Todd: Oh, okay. I will certainly do that when I am out and about today I certainly will do that.
Council: You will feel a difference when you look at somebody and you think like that. You’re going to feel differently.
Todd: Okay. No, that makes perfect sense.
And I want to let go of the fear that the United States will become a fascist state or a dictatorship. And that we’re not, as a collective consciousness in our country, going to let that happen. And thank God we have the courts to kind of help us out, and protests.
Council: Exactly. You always have a choice. And even if the choice starts just in your mind, those thoughts go out into the universe, and it will get better.
Todd: Okay, I trust that it will get better, Council, and that we will come up even higher.
Council: Definitely.
Todd: Thank you. I really appreciate your reassurance.
Council: We enjoy talking to you. And we see how you advance, and we saw today in the beginning of this call that there was so much dark energy around, and it’s already changing. So keep the good thoughts.
Todd: Okay. Thank you. I really appreciate your help.
Council: We would like to say that, in case it didn’t come into your thoughts, when we have these sessions, they are very powerful.

Is My Husband A Narcissist?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named Wanderer.
Wanderer: Hello, Council, and Bob, and Cynthia. I have a very important question as I am going through an emotional and spiritual enlightening process. I want to check if you think my husband is a narcissist.
Council: Aah, so we hear you say you are going through an enlightening process, but being more enlightened, you would not be interested in somebody else being a narcissist. So right there is something for you to look at – how you are looking at this person or people in your life.
And even if they were under this title that you give them, it does not matter. What helps you grow as a spirit, and evolve, and have new people coming into your life is to allow them to be however they are. You may see them as narcissistic, and yet others may not.
So again we say, check on your perception of what is going on. And even if you feel they are [narcissistic], we would say to you, so what? Are you not here to learn to love? Are you not here to learn how to accept everyone the way they are? How you handle this is with your thoughts. If you evolve and allow them to be, you will find more peace, and it doesn’t matter what they are. And we hope you will work on this.
Wanderer: His family dynamics are such a way that I see very selfish behavior from men. This includes creating a story that includes selfish motives, not having boundaries, thinking children are supposed to serve elders, and so on.
Council: And in this, what is your behavior like? You can be aware of this, but are you kindly setting boundaries so you do not let the others affect you? Are you treating the children with kindness in love?
Everything that you see in another, take a look, because a part of it is for you to see what is bothering you, and what is going on in your life. Are you part of this? Are they a mirror to show you? And of course, we see, yes, your thinking, your perception, and your actions also need to be looked at so that they can change.
Wanderer: My husband has been neglectful and has double standards – different standards when it comes to his family, and different expectations when it comes to our own family.
Council: And that is part of his growth. It is part of who he is. And all you need to do is to be aware of it, and then act appropriately for yourself with kindness, and with letting others be.
Wanderer: I want to check if he is a narcissist, and if there’s any hope for a change.
Council: We would say that your belief that he is a narcissist makes it true for you. But we would also say that there are others who do not believe that. So is this person a narcissist, or isn’t he? It is what you believe. It is what you choose to see.
And at this point in humanity, how everyone is here to bring the love from spirit into your lifetime, it is what you choose to see. And even if you think he is, and his whole family is – they’re all narcissists – so does that mean that you have to be like that?
It’s like, wish them well, hope that they change, but you do the changing, you make your boundaries, you always be kind and show love. And it is not always easy, but we can tell you this: if you begin to try to be accepting, if you begin to show the littlest kindness, and not keep tabs on what you do, and what they do, if you come with that intention, your life will change. You will grow. The people in your life will change. You will bring new people into your life, and you will find happiness. And so take the attention and put it on yourself. How would you like to be?
Wanderer: Interestingly, I think my mother has also been somewhat neglectful toward my Dad, and has been unable to love him truly. So there’s a pattern in this behavior I can see where they don’t see their own faults, and they weave a storyline that suits them.
Council: And we see the pattern, and this does not make it good or bad. It makes it come to your attention that we see the pattern that you are seeing negatively into each person, that you are tuned into that negative vibration where you will find things wrong with others. Again, take a look at this. Do you see the pattern? Are you willing to change? And most important, how will you go forward? What about you? What about your thoughts? What about your actions?
It is all coming to a head that you will see all these actions in others that you think are horrible, but we would say, what is your part in this? You wanted to learn this. It is here in front of you. And so you are in a wonderful place on your path where you have the ability to acknowledge, but then to plan how you want to be.
Wanderer: I’m trying to develop more self-love…
Council: That’s the key.
Wanderer: …and self-worth at this time to be able to choose better.
Council: That’s the key. You’re getting it. We are very proud of you.
Wanderer: I have a question on my personality type, as well. My husband is a master at gaslighting, and tells me that I’m narcissistic, where I’ve only been a giver in this relationship.
Council: And so he sees you as this. Do you see the pattern that is going on between all of you? And he sees you as narcissistic. You do not believe you are that way. And that’s what you [should] think of when you see him as narcissistic, or his family. They don’t believe they are that way. And so the lesson is right there in front of you.
Wanderer: Can The Council please guide me if I have any narcissistic traits?
Council: To other people, yes. To you, no. What is more important is how you see yourself, how to be honest with yourself, the way you are acting, and never mind what everybody else thinks. That is your lesson going forward.
Wanderer: Also, can The Council please guide me on how I overcome this narcissistic and financial abuse?
Council: You begin to love yourself. Really, really love yourself, and to show kindness to yourself, to others, to make boundaries with love, and with kindness. Then everything will begin to change.
And so we wish everyone to become aware of how wonderful you all are, that you are all spirits here on the same path of bringing love, of bringing acceptance, of feeling good about others, and of feeling good about yourself. How learning to accept yourself and others is important. Most of all, reach out with the kindness, reach out with the love, and that is how we all came here to change this reality.
Listen to the entire 10-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Wanderer and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel about it.
You can also ask The Council your own question by typing it into one of the Comment boxes that appear at the bottom of most of our blog pages, and we’ll publish an audio recording of their response as soon as it’s ready.

What Can You Tell Me About Our New Cat?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named The Inquisitor.
Inquisitor: I am wondering if you can tell me about my new kitten? We adopted a new special breed of cat because of allergies in the house. He is so unlike any kitten I have cared for, and I am wondering if I can provide him with something more.
Council: We would want to say here that just like a human being – animals, plants, and minerals – they all want the feeling of touch. They want the feeling of love. And they are here to teach you to bring it out so that you grow with these feelings.
Inquisitor: I have scarcely seen him play, and he just wants to be close to us and sleep. His appetite is good, he is very vocal, and he gets a lot of human availability and attention.
Council: So this is wonderful. Not only for the cat, but for the people around it. It is the cat’s purpose to bring out the feeling of love. And so if this is all the way you say it is, this is all that it is getting, it is all that is needed. And that also is all that is needed in human form. The touch, the compassion, the feeling of love, and safety. And so you are doing a good job.
Inquisitor: It has been a few weeks. Does he miss his family?
Council: This animal does not think that way. You are his family, and that is what it knows.
Inquisitor: Does he need a companion?
Council: At this time, we do not see that. Maybe if it becomes more playful, you may see it may want a companion, but right now it is very important what you are doing, and all is fine.
Inquisitor: Do we know him from some time in the past?
Council: We do not see that with this particular animal. And so it is a new soul that has come into your life. Welcome it.
Inquisitor: Any information you can share about him is very appreciated.
Council: And so we wish everyone to become aware of how wonderful you all are. That you are all spirits here on the same path of bringing love, and bringing acceptance, about feeling good about others, and about feeling good about yourself. How learning to accept yourself and others is important. Most of all, reach out with the kindness, reach out with the love, and that is how we all came here to change this reality.

Will My Husband And His Family Learn Their Lessons For Their Bad Behavior?
This post answers follow-up questions for The Council from a reader named Soul Peace from a post we published called, How Do I Create A Successful Romantic Relationship, And Start A Spiritual Business?
Soul Peace: Thank you, Bob, Cynthia, and The Council. I have a quick follow-up question. Can you please help me get the answer when you get a chance?
I want to know if my husband and his family, including his parents and sister, will learn their lessons, or will be punished for their selfish, manipulative, bad behavior with me and his ex-wife?
Council: And so we would ask you, what are your thoughts on this? We feel that you wish that they would be punished. And in your lifetime, everything is created by you. So we would say, “If you believe and want them punished, that’s what you will create. That’s what you would see.”
In their realities, they feel they are justified by acting whatever way they are acting. And so there’s no justification and no agreeing with you wanting them to be punished because they behaved in a negative way. That would not be part of their reality.
And so if you wish to move forward, if you wish to create a happy life for yourself, it would be good to try and see them in a different light, and not wish negative circumstances to happen to them. And so, this is a lesson for you to move on in grace, in higher vibrational energy, or to stay stuck and wanting others to be punished for what you feel you were treated not well.
And so here the lesson is: change the perspective. Work on that. That they will grow, they will change happily, that they will do it in good grace and easily. And that’s how you would move on and bring in a different set of people into your life.
And so, we would say to meditate on this, work on your heart chakra, and let that part of your life go.
Soul Peace: My husband’s family has a huge role to play in both the divorces. In my case they have impacted my mental health and the life of my child for their selfish motives.
Council: And so acknowledge you feel they have impacted your mental health and your child. Once again, you have allowed this. And you have allowed this because you want to learn how to live differently, to project how you act differently, how you can have thoughts that are more positive for yourself and not focusing on them. Are you creating a better life for your child?
So forget what you have seen, and what you think they have created, and take hold of your life. This is your lesson, and create what you want for you and your child.
Soul Peace: I want to know if they will learn their lessons. Thanks, Soul Peace
Council: They will learn their lessons. They will learn what they need to learn, not that they will learn how bad that they feel they were to you. There are many lessons going on here for many of the people involved. And eventually, if it is allowed, if they are willing to grow, everyone (and we will say here, everyone) will learn their lessons and move on beautifully.
And so we wish everyone to become aware of how wonderful you all are. That you are all spirits here, on the same path of bringing love, and bringing acceptance, of feeling good about others, about feeling good about yourself, and how learning to accept yourself and others is important. Most of all, reach out with the kindness, reach out with the love, and that is how we all came here to change this reality.

What Were The Green Orbs We Saw, And Why Were They There?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named Dave.
Dave: Hi, Cynthia and Bob. On December 23, 2024, I saw a whole bunch of green orbs sitting in a tree. I said to my wife, “Do you see them?” and she did. I took a couple of steps towards them, and they seemed to see me and flew together, lost their luminance, and took off so fast I only just saw it. My questions are: Why were they there?
Council: For you this is quite interesting. These orbs do appear to people. Sometimes they are what you consider fairies or angels. Aliens have come in the shape of obs. And it is just different creations that have come to allow you to see them.
In your particular life, it was your family from past lives. They were spirits that you and your wife have known, and you were allowed to see them to ask questions, and to open up the idea that it is possible to see other life situations that you would see and connect with.
And when you remember these orbs that you have seen, we ask you to reach for the feeling. What did it feel like? Was there a particular orb that you were drawn to? Or was it just the many of them who merged into one? And so we would say, “Wonderful for you that you connected and allowed yourself to see a past soul family.”
Dave: Were they there for me to see?
Council: Definitely. You would not have seen them if it was not allowed, or if it was not wanted. And by saying, “Wanted,” both sides wanted this. You wanted it, and they wanted it.
And so, preplanned, here you are. Now what do you do with that memory? Does it stay with you? Does it make you feel good? Does it make you feel more connected to more than what is?
And it is to expand your consciousness, expand your belief system, and expand the future part of your life that can change and grow with this seeing.
Dave: And what were they?
Council: They were spirits of your soul family.
And so we wish everyone to become aware of how wonderful you all are. That you are all spirits here on the same path of bringing love, bringing acceptance, of feeling good about others, and about feeling good about yourself. How learning to accept yourself and others is important. Most of all, reach out with the kindness, reach out with the love. And that is how we all came here to change this reality.

Do I Have Hybrid Children?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named Shawn.
Shawn: Do I have hybrid children? My name is Shawn and I’m from Virginia. I have been seeing UFOs, and aliens, and hybrid children.
Council: Very interesting that at this time, where what you would call aliens are being chosen to come forward, and a little at a time having the human person identifying with them and seeing them. Some believe they are part of them.
And so, you are in that place where you are open to communication. And when you ask, “Do you have hybrid children?” we would say, in this particular human lifetime, no. But you have been around thousands of years, and have been in different galaxies, on different planets. And so there were children there that were yours. Would you consider them hybrid? No. They were your children then. And so it is easy for you to feel a connection, and wanting to know more.
We would say, what would be very interesting for you to find out, it would be the aliens (so to speak as you identify them) that came into Atlantis and taught the people there because they were more advanced. They taught the people in Atlantis how to use energy to build things, to create, and to move things. And so any stories you can find, perhaps movies, any books, on how Atlantis was developed, you would find interesting because you were part of that.
Bob: By hybrid children, Shawn is refering to children of human and alien parents together?
Council: Yes, yes. And so in this lifetime there was no connection between the human and an alien to have children, in this particular lifetime.
And so we wish everyone to become aware of how wonderful you all are. That you are all spirits here on the same path of bringing love and bringing acceptance, about feeling good about others, about feeling good about yourself, and how learning to accept yourself and others is important. Most of all, reach out with the kindness, reach out with the love, and that is how we all came here to change this reality.

Do Imaginary Worst Case Scenarios Manifest In Another Reality?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named EG.
EG: Hello, Bob, Cynthia, and The Council. I have a question about other realities.
I tend to overthink things, and often create worst case scenarios in my head. When I do this, does that mean that these worst case scenarios manifest in another reality?
Council: It manifests in the thought reality, and images and thoughts have their own life. They will become real, as a thought, and it will go out into the universe. It’s there. It exists. It does not mean that you here are a part of it. But a thought – every thought you think is important. Every thought is alive, and is traveling through the universe, over, and over, and over. That is why we always say, try to stay positive, because those positive thoughts will make your reality, and other realities, positive.
So being aware and asking this question, if it exists in another reality, is a wonderful question. Yes, it is thought. It is just energy that’s in this particular thought form, but it does not stay here with you in this reality.
And so, again, the answer would be, learn to meditate. Acknowledge when you have overthought something, or when you are overworrying about something. Acknowledge it, and then have the choice available that you can change it. And that is how you begin to change in this reality, even though you have had many, many negative thoughts.
EG: And does my spirit participate in this [creating worst case scenarios that manifest in another reality]?
Council: Your spirit knows about this. Your spirit doesn’t participate in anything negative. It sees it. It lets it pass. It lets it go. And when you try and call in the positive, your spirit will bring in the positive. There is no negativity for spirit.
EG: Love you guys.
Council: And so, our blessings, our wishes for happiness, and joy, and fun on your path, go out to everyone.

Dealing With Wife’s Infidelity, Career Search, And Money Problems
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Roy.
Roy: Hello, Bob and Cynthia. Thank you for your wonderful platform. My questions center around three areas of my life where I’ve struggled the most. In my marriage I struggle with letting go of past wounds, as my partner had an affair several years ago, yet recently I’m obsessing over it and feeling very guarded.
Council: So you are suffering from the situation that happened to you. What have you done to let it go? Can you let it go?
If you are with this person and you constantly have the thoughts that: 1) there is no trust there, 2) you can’t make this work, and 3) it is uncomfortable, it’s very hard to turn it around.
But if you say, “Well, you know we both came here, we’re spirits, we wanted to be together. So the first thing as spirits, we have to find the love.” Show each other love, and do things that will bring happiness back into the relationship.
It is not so much thinking, “I’ve got to let it go,” because there’s hurt in those thoughts. But when you think, “We’ve planned this. We came together. We love each other. We want this to work,” that’s what changes what happens. And so, you have to want to bring joy, and trust, and love back into the relationship.
And, of course, communication is the first form of getting this (as we would say) out on the table, and discussing what can be done to bring the love that is there, and it is still there. How do you bring it forward?
Roy: I also struggle with finding a career path that I would find fulfilling.
Council: So what kind of desire do you have? What kind of joy do you have when you think of working? Even if you have an image of becoming a millionaire, how did you do it? What do you see yourself doing? It’s always important to play with you’re imagination and pay attention to what it feels like.
When you come into this reality, you always bring with you many, many gifts from other lifetimes. Well what is it? What brings you joy? Do you like to read? Do you like to draw? Do you like to be around people? Do you like to help people who have problems, or who are sick? Look and see what is of interest to you. Do you want to be around animals? Do you want to be outside? Do you want a job where you travel?
No one can give you that answer. You can’t sit back and say, “Tell me what I can do.” There are many, many things you can do, but now play with it. Do the work, and you will be surprised how fast this changes if you are intent on doing the work. You can do it. You can find it. It is already within you. Reach out for it. Be open to it being anything at all, but you will know because you will be happy doing it.
Roy: And I have financial problems that cause challenges in all areas of my life.
Council: And so we would say, as you tell us what is going on in your life, we would like to explain to you that energy is energy. It doesn’t always hit one area of your life. If you find yourself in (the word people use) a funk, it’s everywhere in your life. It will hit your finances, it will hit your relationships, and eventually it will hit your health. So right now, instead of putting pressure on yourself to feel better, to have a better relationship, to find a better job, work on yourself. How do I find a way to feel happy about anything? And by anything we say, are you happy walking down the street when you see babies playing together? Are you happy when you see a cute dog walking on a leash? Are you happy to look in store windows? Find the little things first. That is your challenge right now, because it is in every area of your life where things are not moving.
Find things to be grateful for and acknowledge them. Even if you were to find a penny on the street, laugh, acknowledge, “Okay, here’s some money.” Whatever it is, try to find the happiness in it. When you do that, you will find more and more things to be grateful for, and you will start feeling better, and you will find the right kind of job, and your relationship will improve. Find the gratitude. There is too much around you, and you have reason to feel this way. But now you know you are a spirit. You have the power to change your life by your choices, by how you think of things. And so we suggest you go on that path.
Roy: Any insights would be greatly appreciated. I feel I have been repeating patterns, and I am unable to move past this stage in my life.
Council: The pattern can be changed, but only you can do it. And you can do it. We see that.
And so we send you love, and all the joy that you can find in your lives. Create, create. create/

Overcoming Project Setbacks: Guidance for Success
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Ellie.
Ellie: Hey there. I hope you’re all well. I just read the last comment, and I have some questions about work, also.
I’ve been running two projects, one for eight years and another for five years, that don’t seem to really be getting off the ground. First, there was illness and its associated difficulties, then the pandemic and colleagues dropped off. Now, post-pandemic, the sector faces various issues, and so on. Why did these setbacks happen?
Council: It happened because you created it. It was part of your reality. It fell into the timeline of the pandemic, and for many, many reasons.
If you have been trying something for eight years, or five years, or ten years, or even two years, and it is not taking off, it is not becoming what you need or want in your life, then you need to look at it. What’s missing from this? Is it something that you’re just holding onto tightly, that it has to be this way, it has to be that way, but it’s not happening?
We say let go of this idea. Is there something in it you can change to make it easier? Maybe there’s something along the lines, but not exactly the way you’re trying to create it. It is always there for you, but you must examine the way you are doing it. How are you trying to get this into your life? If it’s by plugging away, dragging up whatever you can to make this happen, you are not in the right vibration.
Everything you want in your life, you already have. It is there for you, but the way to find it is to go in the higher vibration of love, the higher vibration of joy, to be happily excited about something. And if you look at it and it’s not working, you can say, “All right, the way I see it, I can’t create it this way. How do I change the scene? How do I change how I want it to happen? Maybe I need to picture new people coming into my life.” Play with the idea, because after all these years, if it’s not happening, you need to look at it differently.
It is always there for you. You will meet the right people who will want to be part of it, who can help you get it off the ground, but change the vibration. That is so important, how you feel about it. But if it’s so hard that it’s dragging along, why on Earth would you want to create that? Find something you will create with joy, with excitement, and you will be able to have it happen.
Ellie: A year ago, someone advised me to move forward without colleagues, so I did. For the first project, I contacted hundreds of places that would, and in the past, did host my work. I spent a great many days following up, but have absolutely no takers.
Council: And so did you look at it? Why isn’t anybody interested in it? “I need to tweak this a little bit.” And with the interest in it, of how to change it to make it interesting, also let it happen. But if you think nobody is interested, it is not working, it’s not the right people, you are in the wrong vibration. Always look, “I am in control. I can make this happen. Now let me look at it again. What can I change about it? What can I get excited about it?” Go from there.
Ellie: For Project #2, which I think does need people, I started reaching out to old colleagues, and also meeting new people, but again, no takers. I’ve lost the ability to visualize for my work now.
Council: And there’s another problem right there. You lost the ability to visualize. How are you going to create this? How are you going to feel the joy of starting this new business? How are you going to see it succeed if you cannot visualize it?
Ellie: I just get sad, and it hurts.
Council: Sadness is in the way. Feeling hurt is in the way. Instead, think of yourself: “I am a spirit. I’m intelligent. I’m here. I want to do something. Of course, I can create this. Apparently, I’m going about it wrong right now. How do I change this? Let me look at this.” And change the way you see it. And when you see it, make sure you’re in a place of love, of happiness. “Yes, yes, this is a bit different. This will help me. I can see myself meeting all new people, bringing them into my life, who can add to this. They have some ideas that are interesting.” Play with those thoughts.
Ellie: I’d be heartbroken to let these projects go.
Council: How about instead of being heartbroken, say to yourself, “Well, the way I was trying to do it isn’t working. Now let me release it and get excited about something new that I can bring in.” Do you feel the difference in the thought? Being heartbroken about letting it go, that doesn’t feel very well. But being excited, “I’m going to let it go. Goodbye. We’re going to change the thought. We’re going to add to it. We’re going to bring something new in.” Look at the difference in the feeling, and that’s how you create.
Ellie: But is this life’s way of telling me to stop these projects, stop this work, and change sectors?
Council: It’s you telling you this. No one else is telling you. Somehow your higher self, what you are planning, what you want to do next, is showing you, this particular way, it’s not happening. So follow that. “All right, this is not happening. Let me let it go, and let’s see what I can replace it with.”
Ellie: Would something like technical work or alternative intelligence be better for me to go into?
Council: If you feel joy in learning that, if you feel happy getting to that area of your life to work with that, of course it will work for you. It has no choice but to work for you. But if you’re just doing it because it’s just something else, maybe it will work; that vibration will never make it work. Find something that brings you joy. Find something you want to look into now. Research it. See how you would do in it. How does it feel to do it? And that’s how you get the information whether it’s for you or not.
Ellie: What would happen if I did (go into technical work or alternative intelligence)? Would I be happier?
Council: That’s up to you. (Laughs) We can’t make you happy. You look into it and see how you feel. If it’s happiness you feel, then go with it. It’s part of your higher self pointing the way. When you feel the joy, the interest, the happiness, then that’s what you try for, and you create it.
Ellie: I can’t imagine it’s true, but if I’m still to keep with the projects, how do I secure takers for Project #1…?
Council: You will never do this because you can’t imagine it will be true. So right there, you are telling yourself you can’t imagine it happening. You can’t see this getting off the ground. So we would say, “Forget that.” The thinking you have about it right now will not help you develop what you want to develop.
Ellie: …and find people for Project #2?
Bob: I imagine the answer is the same for Project #2.
Council: Look for happiness on your journey. When you find it, when you have the feeling, go in that direction.
And so we send you love, and all the joy that you can find in your lives. Create, create, create.

How Do I Create A Successful Romantic Relationship, And Start A Spiritual Business?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Soul Peace.
Soul Peace: Hello, Council, Bob, and Cynthia. Thanks for all the guidance you provide through the blog. I want to ask The Council a question. I have faced relationship and emotional abuse issues in previous marriages. What kind of changes do I have to bring in myself in order to create a successful relationship?
Council: First, we would ask you to look at these relationships, and they always come with a lesson. And when you don’t get the lesson, it will happen again, and you’ll have another opportunity. And when you don’t get the lesson, it will happen again. The people may change, but the lesson is there.
So we ask you to look at this. What happened in each relationship? What did you do that you feel brought some of this on? There is always your part in it. What did you settle for? What did you not appreciate about yourself? There is always, always a lesson. And then when you acknowledge what it is, to thank yourself, to thank your higher self, and find ways – meditate on how to change your behavior.
Everything that happens to someone is part of their growth. It is always something they have created. So we would like you to understand this didn’t come out of the thin air, and no one’s trying to get even with you, or do this to you. You called it in, and it is your way of learning how to grow.
Number one, before you start anything, you must find a way to love yourself. Whether you look in the mirror every day and just tell yourself you love yourself, or appreciate yourself. Find things during the day that you appreciate what you have done. It is in honoring yourself and loving yourself that you would bring in the right people to love you. But if you have the negative words that you speak to yourself, or if you have doubts about who you truly are, which is spirit, all of that will get in the way. You have to find a way to find love for yourself. The rest will take care of itself. You will find the right relationships. Work on yourself first.
Soul Peace: My other question is around starting my company. I have always been inclined toward spirituality and metaphysics.
Council: That’s wonderful.
Soul Peace: Lately I have also faced emotional issues such as anxiety, and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
Council: And when you grow in one, which is spiritual, the second problem will disappear. So they go hand in hand. You become more spiritual, you meditate, you pray, you go out in nature, you walk on a beach. Whatever that is, the littlest thing, sit in a chair and look at the trees. All of that will begin to change your vibration. And when that changes, you make room for new ideas to come in, for new paths for you to go on. And that is another thing you can start to do right now.
Soul Peace: I’m thinking of creating something that helps people tackle these issues. How can I do this? Should I create a blog, or an app, or write a book that can help people?
Council: All three sound wonderful. But the easiest would be to start a blog so that you can write your feelings and what you’ve discovered. And have people write on it also, maybe to answer you or ask you questions. And so, the reaching out to other spirits with the intention of helping is what makes this happen. Of course, eventually a book would be wonderful, and you are very capable of all of this.
But we would say, when you begin this, make it very personal. Not just for you, but maybe for others whose stories you have heard. When you connect with people, they don’t want to feel like they are reading a book and getting information. They want examples. They want stories that feel real. Stories that you have gone through, and how you have gone through it, and changed it. Or people you know that write to you, or talk to you about how they have changed their lives.
Always make it about the person who has grown from the experience. Perhaps it was very hard in the beginning, but there was a way. What way did they choose to change it? Because that way will work for others, and that’s why you are there. To put this out. To get the ideas across that there is always a way. And by sharing with different spirits, the way will come forth.
Soul Peace: Being a spiritual and emotional coach is very different from my current line of work. I want to ask The Council if this is a direction I should go into.
Council: It’s a wonderful direction. How wonderful that by helping others, you’ll be helping yourself. By wanting to heal others, healing will come to you. It is a wonderful direction.
Soul Peace: And if this is a direction I should go into, what should be the starting point, and how do I grow this? Thanks.
Council: Begin to play with a blog. It’s very simple. Just throw out some ideas and see where it goes. Put yourself out there.
And so our wishes for happiness, and joy, and fun on your path go out to everyone.

Understanding Your Soul’s Purpose: A Guide to Creation
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Sara.
Sara: Hello. I’d love to have The Council’s input on my life path. I’m pretty much in touch with my higher self and my spirit guide team. I know why I am here; I came to help. Right now I feel kind of useless because all I have as directions is to let things fall into place.
Council: And so, many times you feel you know why you are here, and the main reason you are here is to take the love from spirit and bring it into this reality. But a lot of times it’s just to play, just to be, which means there is no one purpose in your life. There is nothing that you are supposed to do.
And many people put that pressure on themselves: “Why am I here? What am I supposed to do?” You are here to create. You are here to create anything you want. And as you create it, you can change it. Do you want it? Do you not want it? How do you make it feel good?
So the main reason you are here is to create. So just be. See what it is that you want. Play with what comes into your mind, what you think you would like to do, and go for it. And if it’s not what you want, then you change the thought and you go for something else.
You are not here to save somebody from being murdered. You are not here to save somebody from committing a robbery. There’s nothing you are supposed to do. You are supposed to live this life and whatever comes along, you want to work with it, you want to see what kind of creator you are, and how you can take your thoughts and change things.
But we say now, when you want something, it is much more important as we advance, that you feel it, even if you don’t get a clear image. If you want to be wealthy, “What would it be like if I had all the money I needed?” And feel it. Don’t look for pictures or scenes. If you want a great love, feel it, and that will bring you everything you want.
Sara: I’m a soul of great ambition. That’s why I am here. I feel things are too slow. Why do I feel like that?
Council: Because you have it in your mind, as a human, you are here to do something. “Why aren’t I doing something? I need to do something. I don’t know what it is.” So of course it feels slow. Instead of looking at it and just enjoying everything, enjoy being in this reality. What would you like to do with it? How would you like to form it? How would you like to experience this lifetime?
So the feeling of things going too slow is because you are not just being. First, appreciate what you see around you, what you have around you. And then any idea that comes to you, play with it. And when you play, instead of thinking, “I have to find something, I have to find something,” when you appreciate it and play with the feelings, what you want will come to you. And it may change many times, but to be aware that you are changing things, that you are more relaxed, and more tuning into what it is that you want. That is when you will get the feelings of what you want to do, and the feeling, the emotion, will bring it to you.
Sara: Am I just supposed to continue what I am doing, and feel like it’s enough?
Council: If you are just waiting for something to happen, that’s not enough because anything will happen. What you’re supposed to be doing is learning how to create. You are just supposed to be here and find the joy that is here. And when you find joy, anything is possible. You can create anything. So just don’t wait for something to happen. Work on it, because you are here to learn who you are. You are here to learn who you are and what you can do, which is anything.
So just be, and play with thoughts, with dreams. Whatever it is, just play with it and appreciate everything. And if there is something you feel you are supposed to do, and you’re not, and you keep holding onto it. If you have the thought in your head, or the feeling, “Oh well, it’s okay. If I don’t do it now, I will do it in the next life.” Just relaxing with that thought would take the pressure off of it, where you would hear more from your higher self, and you would get more and more of the feeling of what to do. You would feel the gratitude, you would feel energy moving, you would feel the vibration of making things happen, and that’s why you are here, to play.
Sara: I trust my higher self, but I am bored. This human life is ‘ugh’. I want to help more. I want to live the life I was supposed to come here to live.
Council: There is no ‘supposed to’. You want to help more? Read about ways to help people until you read something, or find out something, or see something, “Oh, how interesting”, and then do it. Move forward with your thoughts, but mainly move forward with the feeling that you are already doing it. Feel yourself doing it, and it will all come, but do remember that there is no ‘supposed’.
Sara: I’m happy, and I have a beautiful life, but I don’t feel like my soul’s purpose is living to its highest potential.
Council: Your soul’s purpose was to come here to play, to create, to see things, to change things, to make things the way you want it, and to be happy. That’s your soul’s purpose.
Sara: I’m at the point where I don’t have my clairs (clairvoyance, clairaudience, clear knowing, and clairsentience), so I’m not connected enough to my taste in the higher realm.
Council: You are always connected to the place in your higher realm. And so, if you want your clairvoyance, clairessence, etc., all you have to do is go back and start to meditate, and that will bring your senses, your higher senses, into play in your life.
Sara: But I have too much knowing to continue my standard human life. Any tips? Thank you.
Council: We wish you well on finding what it is. Pretend you are a child in a big playroom with many, many toys around you, with many colors. And go into that room and take some colors and mold them as if you were playing with clay. And you can say to yourself, “This is my relationship,” and play with it. So it has no shape yet, but this is what you want. So feel it. “I am creating my relationship.” And color it pink, yellow, whatever is beautiful to you. And here is my career. “Oh, I have another lump of clay.” What does that feel like? And shape it. You might, in your mind, see it shaping, which is fine, but again we say, feel it.
And we send you love, and to remind you, have fun on this journey. That’s what the purpose was for. You want to come in and just mix it up, and have a good time, and everyone can get there.
Listen to the entire 9-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Sara and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel about it.

Please Explain My Connection To A Colleague Who Helped Me Land A Dream Job
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Bobi.
Bobi: Dear Council. One day in March 2024, I went to sleep, and before sleeping, I made a wish. The wish was to change my job environment and be someplace where I could be part of a team.
Council: Bravo for you. It is so important to make a wish, or keep thinking, and imagining, and feeling what it is you want, especially before you go to sleep, because less doubt will come as you drift off into sleep.
Bobi: From my perspective, it was just a thought fleeting by. Exactly one day later, my ex-colleague (let’s call him JJ) called me and asked whether or not I’d be interested in a new job.
Council: Look at how fast that wish worked. It’s as simple as that all the time.
Bobi: Fast forward, I land a dream job in a perfect team, thanks to JJ, in the same company as him. We are not very close personally, but in my important moments he is a good mentor to me, and provides good guidance. And since March 2024, I regularly have dreams about JJ, as if in my dreams I can see his mood, his thoughts, and his worries. And also sometimes we are very physically close, but not intimate with each other in the dreams. This occurrence is very rare and applies only to JJ.
Council: It’s a feeling that comes when you meet with someone that you were very close to in other lifetimes, that you were able to help, or that person helped you, or you played as children in another lifetime, but there was a closeness. And usually that closeness that is felt is because you have been together many, many times. And that’s a wonderful thing to treasure and know, even though there is nothing now, know that there was.
And when you go to sleep at night, you can ask, “Where is this from? Can I see it? Can I have a scene appear to me of what went on?” And this also will come to you. But remember, it is a soul-to-soul experience that has shared many experiences, and that is why that feeling comes across to you.
Bobi: How can I understand what is happening to me in this physical or spiritual realm?
Council: This particular experience that you are feeling is from past lives, many of them. There is nothing we see here that, going forward there will be more, but you can change that. It should be that what comes to you, comes to you easily. It should be that there is no doubt. But being in the human form, that is not possible until you face the doubts. And whatever it is that you want, you do the work to create it.
So feel the love in this relationship, because there is. Think of how many different times you could have been together. And that should bring you the joy and keep the connection.
Bobi: Is this something coming from previous lives, karma, or how can I understand this bond? Thank you for your guidance.
Council: Well, this bond is… yes… because it involves many other lives. It is a wonderful feeling that you have had in many other lives. And you just sort of jump in to support each other, or to meet for a brief time just because it’s fun. And that’s how spirit thinks. We want to go into this reality and have fun. That is why we’re here.
And we send you love, and remind you to have fun on this journey. That was your purpose. You want to come in, and just mix it up, and have a good time. And everyone can get there.

What’s Going On With Trump As President Of The United States?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Todd. Todd paid for a private telephone session with The Council, but he has graciously allowed us to publish this session in a modified form to allow all our readers to benefit from The Council’s guidance. This session is 23 minutes long, but we feel the guidance presented is worth the time. If you like this post, please consider leaving a Comment to thank Todd and let him know you appreciate him.
Council: Good morning. How can we help you today?
Todd: We had a session a few months ago, and I am currently still dealing with a lot of fear about Trump’s term. He’s been in office for three weeks, and from what I’ve seen, he’s already done a lot of damage to our country. And I’m working with what you suggested last time with visualizing mirrors, and colored lights, and sending love and light to the world. I know a lot of other people who are really afraid because he really wants to be a dictator in a United States of America that’s been essentially a democracy for close to 250 years.
So some days I do better with forging forward with my daily life, and other times it looks really, really bleak as he’s trying to dismantle the Executive branch of the government. So I don’t know if you get a feeling for me, or the country, or what, or both, or whatever. So that’s my question.
Council: Well, as we have said before, there’s going to be a lot of rockiness with the country, but this is expected because it all has to do with everybody staying calm, and going into the light, and doing the praying, meditating, and sending light everywhere. It’s really putting it in (as we would say) everyone’s face. So it’s going to get bad, but at the end, if it goes in the direction that everybody wants, it will straighten out.
We can tell you, (normally we wouldn’t), but we would say what’s coming up, if it continues to go with Trump’s ego, he will have a falling out with (Elon) Musk, and that’s going to start being the end of what he (Trump) can get away with. So somehow the souls there on your planet are trying to do it (get Trump out of office) that way, but in the end it’s, do the work, do the work, do the work.
Don’t get crazy. He (Trump) has lessons to learn himself, which he may or may not get, but in the end he is trying to be a dictator. Somewhere in his ego, he thinks he’s king. He made it, and he can change the past, and undo what he doesn’t agree with. The man has major, major things to learn. But what has to be remembered is that we all agreed to it. Okay, let’s let it in, and let’s see how all of us together can change it.
And you change it by one day at a time, one person at a time, being nice and helpful. Every little thing you do that’s helpful, that you do for people not expecting a reward, not expecting something back. When you do it with the right intent, that energy is so strong, and it’s here, and it will surface. And right now, there are many people who voted for him who believe he’s doing a great job. That’s going to change, and it’s not going to take too long before that changes.
So there’s a lot of upheaval coming, but it’s nothing to be afraid of. Just flow with it, and know you are more powerful than this one person. Everyone is so afraid of him that not too much is being done right now. But hopefully, if it goes in the direction it’s supposed to be going in, it will be fine.
So what frightens you the most?
Todd: What frightens me the most is that…and some of it has to do with the economy. But I believe I’m a sensitive soul that cares about the well-being of everyone, and I’m not in charge of that. But the well-being of everyone, and that so many people in our country will suffer, and that he will ultimately gain ultimate power. Another fear I have, Council, is that there have been quite a few court orders stopping Trump, but my fear is that he will ignore those and do what he wants anyway, causing a constitutional crisis.
Council: Well, yes, it can go there. He does not believe in his own mind that anyone can stop him. He really has the, I am emperor, attitude going on. And like we say, there will be a battle. There will be ups and downs. And you know it will get better, then it will start again, but there is also an energy going out there – and of course we can’t predict what will happen – that Trump will get sick from something he does. It will affect him. So if that happens, you have to know that you’ve all agreed to this as a way to get him out because it will come to that. Everyone will want him out. It’s not going to be like it is now.
Everyone thinks, “Oh, we’re going to make more money.” Prices, we see, are going up, and they will go up further, and it will be very hard. So when it’s very hard for everyone, is there a neighbor you can help? Is there somebody that needs some sort of lifting of their mood that they’re also afraid of? And if they are, it’s up to you, if you can, to talk positive and get them to see how you have hope, and to teach that. And that’s a lot of what’s going around. What we see with most of everyone that’s afraid is that they just want to wait and see what happens. And, of course, that’s not always a good thing, but at this point, these people are not ready to do something about it. It’s like, “Oh, this is horrible, but let’s see what happens.” Well, let’s see what happens, is up to you.
So it will turn. People will do things unheard of that are so powerful, that are so wonderful, and the light will shine once again in your world. But we would say try not to be frightened. And it’s hard. You are in a human body, and you think about what you see. The emotions get a hold of you, but you are in such a place of power that you will change it. That’s what you have to hold onto.
The main thing is, day by day, how do you act towards yourself? Are you good to yourself? Are you good to neighbors, or family, or friends? Because any bit of that sort of loving energy, by being nice, by being helpful, is going to work to get Trump out of that office. And there are people thinking of trying to execute him. There is so much going on. People are terrified of him. That’s the wrong way to think. Don’t be terrified. It should be the thought: Everyone is waking up. Day by day they’re waking up to what he’s doing.
Nobody is going to stand for this because things will get very rocky. It’s very important how you handle it with your thoughts. Again, it’s what everyone has to get in touch with: who they are. And things in the past, in history, have escalated and gotten very bad because people closed their eyes. They were afraid to get involved. This time, that won’t happen. It will take time, but this time, people will become more aware and say, “Enough.” That’s what you hang onto.
Todd: Okay. Thank you, Council. I really appreciate that.
So since the election, looking at my energy, I’ve done everything I can. I work with those mirrors (mentioned in a previous session), and the light, and so forth, and prayer, and breathing, and doing the chakra meditation. Do you see that I’ve done my part so far? What are your thoughts on that, Council?
Council: Well first of all we want to ask you, when you’re doing this, how do you feel? What are your thoughts when you do this – the mirrors, the light?
Todd: I tend to do them at night before I fall asleep. So I tend to feel more peaceful, and then I drop off to sleep. I do it as I’m falling asleep.
Council: Okay, that’s good. In the morning, it’s a good thing to get up and bless the day. Ask to see many wonderful miracles happening, and leave it up to the universe. Keep saying: “The universe is going to help me. It’s going to show me what I need to see to calm down. The universe is going to show me what I need to see. Things are changing for the better.” Put it out there in the morning, and bless the day. You can say things like, “Something wonderful is going to happen to me today. I will be so thrilled. There’s a miracle out there that’s coming. I will see wonderful things happening to me, to my neighborhood, and to the planet. I am ready to see this. All good is coming.”
Todd: Thank you. And in the collective of the Earth, and specifically the United States, do you see the energy building enough positive to really change things with what’s going on? Do you see it building? Do you see it growing? Do you see it happening there?
Council: It’s sort of stuck right now because so many people are afraid. But it’s, we would say, like 50-50. But what’s happening is not just in America. The whole world is watching what’s going on. And they’re watching to see: What are the American people doing about this? That’s why it’s important for steps to be taken that show the world we’re not taking this anymore, because they’re afraid. They’re afraid Trump will start a war, or God knows what they think. But the whole world is watching, and the nice part is that people all over the world are praying for America. Isn’t that wonderful?
Todd: Yes, it really is. And we’re praying here, too, in America.
Well, I’ll be honest, I have felt discouraged lately. Maybe I’m picking up on the collective stuckness, but I’m hoping that that’s temporary and won’t last for a long time, and the people will start moving forward again. Because right after the election you got a strong sense, Council, that there’s enough positive to overcome this.
Council: But you have to remember that any sort of healing comes in waves. Nothing heals where it starts, and boom, it goes straight up. You will heal maybe two or three steps, and you’ll go back a step. Then you’ll heal another three steps, and you go back a step. So that going back sort of tests what you believe in, sort of tests your faith. So when you see it, you go, “Oh, this is good.” Then, “Oh no. He (Trump) won again. Look what he’s doing.” That’s the wave of how healing happens. It never just goes, yeah straight through. Never. Even with a physical healing, you feel good for a couple of days, and then you don’t. Then you feel good again, then you don’t. It’s the wave of healing. So it works for the whole planet like that.
Todd: Oh, wow. Okay.
Council: Always. So when you see it go back, try not to get nervous. Just say, “Look at this. This is great. I’m becoming aware of everything. I see it going backward. Let me see the next step forward.” And it’s always very powerful to acknowledge what you see because when you acknowledge it, the universe is going to give you more. It will give you more knowledge, it will give you more information. So when you see it go backward, you sort of freak out.
The universe is going to feel your vibration because everything is vibration. And when you concentrate on that, the universe goes, “Oh, okay. He’s thinking of this. He probably more.” And it’s going to send you more. But when you acknowledge, “Ugh, it’s going backward, but you know what, let me just flow with it. Let’s just work with the light. Let’s just have good thoughts and know it’s going to change.” Then the universe sees that. “Oh, they want change. They want to be in the light.” And you’ll see more of that.
You’re in control of everything, but at this point it’s so important for people to be aware of what’s going on. And then be aware of what it does to your thoughts, and be aware of the feeling you get. Because if you get depressed or you get afraid, that vibration is right there. It’s all around you. So when you get afraid – and that will happen – you acknowledge it. “Oh, boy. I’m afraid. Here we go again. But I know I can change it. I can change it for me. And when that starts working for me, that energy is going out there, and it’s going to work for other people. It’s going to work for somebody across the universe.”
That positive energy, there’s no limit to where it can go and what it can do, but it’s the choice that everybody wanted. Everybody that’s here now chose to be part of this. And they knew going in it was going to be hard. But you know, when you’re in spirit, you’re like happy-go-lucky. It’s like, “Oh, yeah. I can handle that. Wow, this is going to be tough. Let’s see what I can do. I know I can do it.” And then you get there and life hits you in the face, and you forget what it was like on the other side. And you forget that you wanted to learn from this. And you forget that you wanted to work as hard as you can to get control of your thoughts and of your energy, and direct it.
You can direct white light to Trump as much as you want. Now he’s in a place where he may not let it in, but he will feel confused because he’s not in the white light right now. I mean, you know, his thinking. He does have some white light, but if you start sending it to him, as we do here (in spirit), we send it to him hoping he’ll remember who he really is. He will remember he’s from spirit, and he’s here to do a lot of good for this planet. So sending him white light is not a waste. Eventually it will get through.
You can pray he makes good choices. And you can feel sorry for his soul because he’s not doing (we can say) what he thought he would do. But you get here and you forget your plan. And whatever he went through in his life, and there were a lot of terrible things that happened to him as a child, without going too far into it. Yeah, you could say he was bullied. He was punished a lot, and whether they let that out, maybe eventually.
Todd: Yeah, I got a sense of that, too.
So another question I have is the larger problem. First of all, where do you see Congress in all of this, and if Republicans will ever step up and push back against Trump? And also, a timeline for the oligarchy? You can’t probably predict a time, but how long do you think it will take for us to go through this before we come out the other side?
Council: That’s very hard to predict because it’s sort of stuck right now. But Congress will get fed up. They will actually get afraid with some of the stuff that he’s going to try and do. So Congress will not always be there to protect him, or hide whatever.
Todd: Okay.
Council: It’s going to happen. And the big part – and it’s happening already – is that Trump will begin to be very jealous of this man, Elon Musk. And that’s part of the downfall. So watch how that goes.
Todd: Well…yeah…exactly. This is all very helpful, Council. And if there’s just one closing question, it would be: If Trump would fall, or have a health concern, or can no longer serve, or is impeached, or assassinated, or put in jail, or whatever, do you eventually see J. D. Vance being in the White House, or that might be too far out, too.
Council: Yes, we see that would be the next step, but a lot of people are very afraid of that, and it will not be as bad (as Trump). So even now you can send Vance light. Get that started. But it could take quite a while, we see, because it’s just not moving yet. But it’s there. It will happen. And the more Trump does, you know, forgiving this one and that one, and forgiving himself, and pardoning himself, after a while people are going to say, “What is going on here?” and it will begin to change.
But you have to realize you’re a big part of it, how you think about it. And your thoughts will touch another person’s thoughts, and everybody right now has to not panic when Trump does something and it gets bad. It’s that three steps forward, one step back scenario. This is just the beginning. After a while, people are not going to stand for this. They think he’s going to do this wonderful thing for us. Well the way he’s going, it’s not going to go that way. And people will say, ‘No, we’ve had enough.’ If they have to drag him out of the White House, it will come to that. If they have to do it, they will do it.
Todd: So you get a collective sense we’re stuck now, but that’s part of the process. We won’t be stuck forever?
Council: No, right. But people have to do the work. It’s not going to happen magically. Everybody here is creating what’s happening now, and is creating the future. So if you walk around like, “Oh, God, he’s going to blow this planet up. He’s ruining…” That’s not the place to be, even though you want to be there because that’s what it looks like. You have to do the work. Change your thoughts. Send those prayers out, meditate, and see the light surrounding the globe.
The mirrors are wonderful. Have you felt anything in your home?
Todd: I imagined the mirrors around my house like you mentioned last time.
Council: Yes, yes. And the mirrors are facing out. Do you feel a change yet?
Todd: Oh, no. Oh, the mirrors are facing out? Oh, geez. Okay. I’ve been facing the mirrors in. Oh no. I’m supposed to face the mirrors out.
Council: Yes. Like the one that covers the roof, the mirror is facing up to the sky. The one that goes across the bottom, it faces down. Because what happens is when there’s a lot of negative energy around and it comes to your house, it can’t get in. The mirror bounces it back. That’s why the mirrors face out.
Todd: Okay. And for myself, too?
Council: Same thing. Whether you put yourself in an oval or a rectangle, the mirrors are always facing out. And if you want to take it even further, inside the mirror you fill it up with purple. That’s even stronger.
Todd: Okay, I’ll do that. But the mirrors face out. I’ve been doing it with the mirrors facing in.
Council: Okay. So there’s something new that you’ve learned. And just that you were trying to work with the mirrors is good. So don’t put yourself down for that. So now you know. ‘Oh, I have to reverse it.’ And many, many people that do this, you would be surprised how many, they do feel the difference. So see what happens.
Todd: Okay, I certainly will.
Council: Okay. Stay positive. You can do this.
Todd: Yes, Council, I can do this. And we won’t be stuck forever.
Council: No, we won’t.
Cynthia: They just told me that even though the mirrors were backwards, he has guides outside, around him, around his house that sort of help. But it’s good to change the mirrors.

Diaphragmatic Breathing Tips for Better Health Recovery
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Cristea17.
Cristea17: Hello, dear ones. I would like to ask The Council a question regarding my health.
Following a surgical procedure I am experiencing difficulty breathing, and complete sleep apnea. The moment I fall asleep my breathing reflex stops. I feel lucky if I somehow manage a few hours of sleep a night. Sometimes I get a full night’s sleep, and sometimes I get none at all. Fortunately it doesn’t happen every day, but it has gotten more often in the past weeks.
I suspect this could be neurological, potentially a side effect of the general anesthesia. Unfortunately the doctors have not provided any answers. They are dismissing my symptoms as anxiety. Over the past few years I have faced numerous health challenges, often involving delayed, incorrect, or incomplete diagnosis, as well as experiences of medical gaslighting. How do I fix my breathing problems, my overall health issues, and this faulty interaction with the medical system?
Council: And so the first thing we would say is to learn diaphramatic breathing. When you breath in, as you bring the air into your body, push your belly out. You’re breathing in, so it’s filling up your belly. Push your belly out. And then as you let the air out of your stomach, bring your stomach all the way in. Bring it it tight, as if you were trying to get your stomach to touch your spine. And you do that several times when you breathe. That will correct your breathing. That will correct many of the organs that need help at this time. And so that is the first thing we would suggest that you do.
Also the chakra breathing will help you. Do that often. Massage helps you. Anything to touch and calm the body and the nerves. Vitamin B is good for you. And as you do these things, you will see an improvement.
Cristea17: Thank you. I am very grateful for your help. Blessings.
Council: And so we all send you all the love from spirit for you to take in, feel it, picture it, and send it out again. And then you are on your way to healing not only America, the United States, but the whole planet. This is your purpose.

How to Set Boundaries with Toxic In-Laws for a Healthier Life
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Starfish.
Starfish: Hello, Bob, Cynthia, and The Council. Thanks for doing all the amazing work. I have a question for which I’d like to seek The Council’s guidance.
I’m having issues with my husband and in-laws that are causing a lot of mental anxiety, and lung-related issues for me. My husband is too attached to my in-laws, and is not able to have healthy boundaries. My in-laws have certain toxic traits, and they come to have an extended stay with us, causing a lot of disruptions in my health.
Council: Has this always been this way, or are you just aware of it now? So we’d ask you to take a look at this.
Starfish: My husband prioritizes his parents and is not able to see the wrong behaviors done by them. I want to check if it’s possible to have a future for me where I can stay with my husband happily, and not have to deal with or live with my in-laws?
Council: And so we would say this would all be up to you; how you see it and how you work with the energy. It is possible for you to speak to your husband about this and come up with something that would work for the both of you. If there’s no cooperation on his side, then we would say, well what can you do? Can you have your in-laws in your home and not spend too much time with them? Are you able to look at how they behave, then do the work, and try to learn what makes them like that? What are they trying to accomplish?
There’s always a lesson in these difficult challenges. And so we would say, play with that and see what comes out of trying to learn from it. But again, you have to do the work of meditating and seeing the way you want it.
We feel right now you are more on the path of: Can I leave and make a good life for myself, rather than trying to fix it. And there is no wrong answer. The choice is always yours, but it is now time for you to realize the choice is yours. What can you do to try to live with this behavior? Can you talk to his parents? Can you tell them this is upsetting, and will not be accepted anymore? Can you be honest and have this kind of conversation?
But to be there and let it go on, and not say anything to your husband and to his parents is just sitting in this lesson, and we do know what happens. If you don’t fix it now, if you don’t learn from it, you will repeat it in another life until you get the lesson.
So we would suggest that this time do everything that you can to learn from this lesson. If you still feel that it’s not for you, then you make the decision to leave. But always know it is your decision. This will not come from anybody else. So if you see yourself not being able to communicate with your in-laws, you will create that. If you can do the work and see things getting better, then that will happen. But what are you doing with the visualization? How are you working on this?
Starfish: The other option is for me to move away from my husband and create a different life for me and my son.
Council: Yes, you can do that, but then again, look at the whole picture. Is that what you want? How will you move forward? In what area? How will it help you be a better mother? How would it help you make your child happy and give him a good environment? If it will make things difficult for you when it comes to finances, how will you handle that? What will you do with it? How you handle things means a lot. So you don’t want to take your child and move away, not have the right finances, be nervous, maybe take it out on the child, or be worried all the time. Make a plan. If you decide to leave, where will you go? How will you work? How do you see your life moving forward? And this again is visualization.
Starfish: Can The Council please guide me on which path me and my son will find happiness and peace? I want to understand whether it will be on the path with my husband, or leaving my husband.
Council: And no one can make that decision but you. We can not tell you, “Oh yes, you will be happy,” because we don’t know what will be going on in your mind in the future. Are you thinking the wrong thoughts so that you’re creating the wrong outcome? It is always, always up to you. You decide what you want and then do the work of what you want. Will you stay, or will you go? It is entirely up to you. You are the creator.
Starfish: Looking at my anxiety issues and lung disorder, I don’t think I can deal with my in-laws in the same house with the current attitude of my husband. My son and I have suffered a lot in this relationship and I don’t think I can suffer more, and I don’t know how to create a future with my husband without my in-laws’ influence. Sometimes I think my in-laws are here so that I can see the true colors of my husband and move on.
Council: Oh, no, no, no. They are here to see the true colors of yourself, and how you will respond to all of this. And remember, this is something you wanted to learn to grow from it. So this is always about you. And it’s easy to blame the husband, or you know, go off in different directions. It is always about you learning about you.
Starfish: Also, I’ve been told by The Council that if I move away from my husband, my child is going to learn different lessons without his father.
Council: How wonderful. Then there are different lessons.
Starfish: Can The Council please guide me on what will be my and my child’s lessons without the father?
Council: Without the father there will be many other lessons. And again, it’s what you create. Do you create a good home environment? If not, then one of the lessons will be for you or your child how to live in that, how to create it differently, how to move forward differently if it’s not what you want.
And so, until you decide what you want, you will not create the environment that you want. And so we can not tell you to do this or do that. First decide what you want, then devise a whole plan on how to do this where you are truly comfortable.
So your son and you will have different lessons, but that was all chosen, that was all pre-planned. Now which way your decision takes you will allow what other lessons you need to learn, and that you need to go through this lifetime to learn from. And it’s that simple.
Starfish: Thanks.
Council: It is our duty, shall we say, it is our work to help the souls that are in a human reality to learn that: #1, you are the creator. We are not here to give you answers. We are here to show you how to get the answers. And so we say, take your time. You can go back and forth with your decision until one day you will decide: This is it.
And so we all send you all the love from spirit for you to take in, to feel it, to picture it, and send it out again. And then you are on your way to healing not only America, the United States, but the whole planet. This is your purpose.
Listen to the entire 10-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Starfish and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel about it.

How Do I Rewrite My Soul Contract?
This post answers a question from a reader named, Romy.
Romy: Hello. How do I rewrite my soul contract?
Council: (Laughing) The whole thing, from birth to now? You can rewrite your soul contract, but you never rewrite the whole thing. You can take something that you are going through, or you would like to go through, and keep thinking about that before you go to sleep. Keep seeing it the way you want it to be. Meditate on the way you want it.
You change the soul contract by first creating in energy what it is that you want, and you grow from within learning: create in energy first, then bring it forward (into physical reality). And for some people it happens right away. It’s whatever the amount of time you give it. But we would like you to understand that if there’s more than one area that you’d like to change, that you concentrate on one area at a time. And then when you see you can do it, it’s possible for you to change things, then you can go on to the next one.
We would say, if there are a lot of areas, take the smallest and the easiest first. And also, when you go to sleep at night, or you sit and meditate, talk to the souls that are in your life about what you want to change. Have this discussion with these souls, and you do meet them at night. There is a lot of traveling to meet with the spirits of the souls that are in your life now. So talk and discuss, “Alright. Plan this. How about if we change it to this?” Have these conversations. That is what works.
And so we send you great love, happiness, understanding, hope, and kindness for the New Year that you are now going through in your reality. Ask for enlightenment when you pray, or when you meditate. Ask for understanding. But always ask to be connected to the love and the light in your heart. And that on a daily basis you can send it out and show people this love and this light, a kind word, a smile, and understanding, even if you don’t understand.
Just being supportive, that will help you grow. And as you grow, the person you affect grows also. It’s a wonderful thing. We are here to help each other, and that will continue on larger and larger areas of our life. And so remember to be of service. Find the love you have for yourself and then share it with others.
Listen to the entire 4-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Romy and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel about it.

Is A Soul Waiting To Be A Member Of Our Family?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Eva,
Eva: I found great comfort in your answer, and I really want to thank you once more for your effort to really help people who are in need of a better understanding of our reality.
My question as well has to do with the possibility of having a baby of our own with my current partner. To be perfectly honest with you, I still feel guilty for the abortion I had in the past, and I wonder as well if he and I deserve a baby in our lives.
Council: This is not about who deserves what. This is about not only forgiving yourself, which is not even the right direction to go in. It’s not about forgiving. It’s that you completed what you wanted to do with this other spirit. The spirit agreed to it. What did you learn from this? It’s all about learning. And so, take it into your life now. Okay, you went through that. What have you learned? How does it change the way you live now? How would it change your future?
But we would definitely say, forget the guilt. It’s not necessary, it’s old baggage, and begin to appreciate yourself, that you went through this, what you planned. And so you went through it, you don’t have to go through it again, take the lessons. Really listen for the lesson and move forward with that.
Eva: We both try to spend as much time as possible with the kids we already have.
Council: That is a good step.
Eva: And I feel that if we had a chance to have one more child it would be really helpful for them, as well.
Council: So we would ask you, why are you putting this on another child? If you want more happiness, create it now before you decide to bring another soul into this.
And so many, many people, when their marriages are not working the way they want, they feel: Oh, we’ll have a child and that will fix it. No, it won’t, because you don’t know what you have agreed to with that spirit coming in. Will it make it harder because that’s what was agreed upon? Is it a way to get you to become more independent? Is it a way to fix what you have, and give more love to each other and to the children you have now before you bring another soul in? Or maybe then realizing you don’t need another soul. So this is a big question for you, to take the time and look for those answers.
Eva: I wonder if there is a new soul out there waiting to be the new member of our family?
Council: There is a soul that is available if it’s needed, but it’s on that basis, is the time right? Is it okay with that soul when you’re wanting to bring it in? It has the choice to look how you’re living now. If you’re in a miserable relationship, most souls don’t want to come into that unless it’s agreed upon by you and this other soul that things are worse, but you’re going to work through it.
So there’s always lessons around it, but the answer is to focus now on what you have and bring love in there first.
Eva: Many thanks for your love and understanding.
Council: And so we send you great love, happiness, understanding, hope, and kindness for the New Year that you are now going through in your reality. Ask for enlightenment when you pray, or when you meditate. Ask for understanding. But always ask to be connected to the love and the light in your heart, and that on a daily basis you can send it out and show people this love, this light, a kind word, a smile, and understanding even if you don’t understand.
Just being supportive, that will help you grow. And as you grow, the person you affect grows also. It’s a wonderful thing, we are here to help each other, and that will continue on larger and larger areas of our lives. And so remember, to be of service, find the love you have for yourself, and then share it with others.

Please Provide Clarity On My Unexpected Pregnancy In My Unhappy Marriage
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, L.
L: Hello again Bob and Cynthia. You were kind enough to ask for clarity for me a couple of years ago when I became pregnant unexpectedly. It was a tough time, and I lost the baby at the end of the first trimester. I could not go through with a termination, and offered to the spirit that I would leave it with them to stay with me or go. Our world was a little rocky and the babe left.
I now find myself unexpectedly pregnant again at 42 years old. Again my husband is not happy. I am shocked, but less so than before. Our relationship was already in conflict, and this pregnancy is pushing the limits of our mutual disrespect and fighting. I don’t feel like my last pregnancy with him, but I definitely do not feel embraced.
I would love some clarity from The Council regarding this pregnancy and the way forward. Part of me hoped that we could make this pregnancy work for us, bring us closer together, and be more in harmony, but it has not. At ten weeks pregnant we can barely be civil to each other. I’m not in a position to be a single mother of three children, however. I’m so sad at what our relationship has become for me and our children.
I am looking for the light, as I feel at times so lost, being pregnant at my age, and in an unhappy marriage with two children. Any guidance would be appreciated. I wish for a happy, peaceful life with my family, and good health. Thank you, L.
Council: Unfortunately there are many, many people, when they are in relationships that are not working out, feel like they will have a child and that will bring you closer together. And that does not always work. Many, many times it makes it worse. You have a relationship where there are problems already. Do you think this new little spirit is going to change your life? The spirit agreed to come forward if that’s what you want, but the spirit will then have to deal with their issues, and you will still have your issues.
And so you are at a point where you must decide if you have this child and you wind up alone, is this what you want? Can you handle it? If you don’t have this child and you stay in this marriage, do you think it will improve at all?
But what we say is, now is the time to do the visualization the way you want your life to be. But make some sort of a decision, like no, I cannot be a single mother of three, or yes I can. What’s one more? But at least I’ll be free and out of this relationship. Or stay with two children and somehow we will get along.
But that won’t magically happen. What’s going to happen is your thoughts will create what will happen. So if you want to have this child, and you want to stay in this marriage, now is the time to see it, and to see it as if it’s already happening, to see it with joy in your heart that this worked out, this is wonderful. And that is how you create.
And we send you peach and love.

How Can I Best Care For My Aging Dad?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Eden.
Eden: Hi, Bob & Cynthia. Could you please ask The Council how to best care for and support my aging dad? He lives just over an hour from me and is now 83 years old with a lot of health challenges popping up. He has a healthy mind, though, so we don’t want to explore putting him in care because he has said he’d absolutely hate that.
Council: With a healthy mind it is always good to encourage them to do more and more. You may have to spend more and more time with him, but do not take that independence away. And give them compliments on what they remember to do. It is always important to uplift the soul.
Eden: I’m concerned about him because he lives alone, and I’m aware he’s beginning to need more help. However, he is quite resistant to help because he likes to be independent.
Council: And so maybe, to get his input, you can suggest, “How would you like to have someone come in once a week and clean, and that’s it?” Or, “How would you like someone to come once a week and bring you food?” You do not change the whole environment. You get him accustomed to some sort of help, even if it’s for an hour a day. “Someone is coming in to make you lunch. Someone is coming in to do your dishes.” And that’s it. You do not do it every day. You do not let someone come in and take over. That is when spirit becomes depressed and loses itself.
Eden: So it’s a challenge to get him to accept help with things around the house, even though it’s clear that he needs the help.
Council: That is why we suggest one thing. Let someone come and do just one thing.
Eden: How can my sister and I best support him while also maintaining our own lives and jobs, and living an hour away from him?
Council: Of course it’s a difficult time to go through something like this, but as adults, you and your sister would have to set aside time that you both agree on, and that you can make visits to your father. Also, when there are times that you can’t visit, you have that person come in just to do that one thing so that he always has the ability to speak to someone. It is important that you keep speaking, that you have ideas and you share them, or a joke and you share it, because communication is important.
Eden: Do you see that we’ll have to cut back on our workdays to help care for him?
Council: We do not see that right now. And so with your imagination, focus on the way you want it to be. If you want him all of a sudden to say, “Yes, I need to go and live somewhere else,” or “I need to have more help,” now is the time to be imagining the way you want it to be, not the way you don’t want it to be. So see it being a helpful situation, seeing everyone being happy about what’s happening, and that is how you create it. Do it now.
Eden: How can we convince him to accept help and be willing to spend a little bit of money to receive that help?
Council: That is why we continuously say, do one thing. It is scary for an elder person to think they are losing their independence. But if he sees one person come and it’s not that bad at all, and the person is nice, and there’s no big change, and his life is not being taken away from him, then he will agree to more help. But this takes time, and we say, start small.
Eden: There are government-supported options for help at home which are subsidized. However, he is very resistant to spending any money on himself.
Thank you in advance for the advice.
Council: Right now the best thing is to get him to accept small amounts of help.
We send you peace and love.

Living Infinite Lives: Insights on Spirit Realms
This post answers some very interesting questions for The Council from a reader named, Clark.
Clark: Hello. Do you have food in heaven that you can eat, for example, kebab, or baked potatoes?
Council: (Laughing) Yes, we do.
Clark: Can you play Xbox, or get your own PC or MacBook Pro?
Council: You can do that also.
Clark: Also, do we live infinite lives on Earth, or do we reach a point in which we have lived and experienced enough to stay in heaven forever?
Council: So, in answer to your question, you can have whatever you want. You can make your situation in heaven where your stomach never gets full and you constantly, constantly eat. You can make it where you never have to eat because it’s not important. You can have it where you sleep forever and forever, or you can have it where you never get tired and you never have to sleep.
The point of this is, first of all, when you’re in the position of passing over, what you think of, and what you believe, is what you experience. So if you’re looking for angels, or you’re looking to be in heaven, you will have that experience. If, for some reason you are guilty, or you are angry, or you are afraid and you’re going to wind up in the other place (Hell), that’s what you will go through until you realize who you really are. And some people realize it right away, and some people, it just goes on and on.
You are a spirit, and the way you create your life in your reality now, you create your afterlife. So it’s all what you believe. It can be as beautiful or as horrible as you want. There are no rules to follow. There’s nothing that you have to do to get in there (heaven). There’s no password. You just experience what you believe.
And you can be there for a timeless period, or you can jump right back into another life, but we can tell you that there is no spirit that wants to stay in heaven, or stay in the afterlife forever and not come back. It’s too much fun. There’s too many things that you want to experience. You hear from other spirits what they went through and how they handle it. You want to try it.
So a spirit never just wants to lay around forever. You want to come in and have some fun. Or you want to be very brave. Or you want to experience a life that you haven’t had before. You want families. You don’t want families. You want to be rich. You want to be poor. There is so much that you want to do. And so many other spirits that you know, that you want to come back with and have some fun, or have some challenges, or help each other grow.
So your reality in the afterlife can come up with your Xboxes, and movies, or many, many cars, or stores to go and shop in, and malls to play in, or houses to live in. Whatever it is that you want, you can create it.
Bob: To get back to Clark’s question: Do we live infinite lives on Earth? Is that a yes or no question?
Council: You live infinite lives, period. Whether they are on Earth, or they are in another galaxy, like so many love the Pleiadians. You live in a limitless environment. Wherever it is you want to go, whatever it is you want to experience, that’s what you will create. There is no ending.
Bob: But no spirit wants to stay in heaven forever?
Council: No. It’s too much fun. You’d miss it.
Bob: And I’m under the impression that spirits can live lives on Earth, as well as other places.
Council: Wherever they (spirits) want to exist.
And you can go into the past and live a past life again. Maybe there’s a period in history you’ve heard about and you wonder, “Oooh, I would have liked to be there.” Well, you can.
Bob: Can you go into more detail about that?
Council: As spirit, you can project yourself forward, backward, anywhere you want to go. So if you want to learn about living during the witch hunts, you can create your spirit to go in that time. The time never ends. That period is still there, and you can project yourself into it, and live it, and then when it’s over, you come and rest in your heaven. Or you say, “That was fun. Let me do it again. Or let me see where else I want to go.”

Where Should I Travel To Or Relocate To Permanently?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Alice, in response to our post, Is There A Specific Career I’m Meant To Do, Or A Place I Should Live?
Alice: This is interesting. I’d also like to know about places I should travel to, or relocate to permanently. And were there any significant past lives?
Council: Well we will tell you. This is very interesting. There’s a lot going on.
If you want to travel, yes, go and do it. Go to Egypt, go to England, go into the Americas where the southern Indians are. There are many, many places. But really what’s going on, in a past life you were a monk in Japan. You lived in a temple and were never ever allowed to leave, and it was always your desire to see what was outside. What would it be like? And that seemed to get in the way of you relaxing and doing your rituals, your daily chanting, and your daily praying as a monk.
So what is suggested here is to travel anywhere just to move, but to go back to Japan, go to the mountain of healing, Mt. Koriyama (Bob’s note: we think they meant Mt. Kurama), and spend time there. Visit as many temples as you can, and see the feeling it brings back to you. You will feel more appreciative now of that time than you did when you were actually living there (in your past life).
So what your spirit is trying now is to go back and find the things that you should have perhaps been appreciating. That is what is happening to you now.
Alice: I feel very drawn to living a nomadic lifestyle…
Council: Of course, you wanted that when you were back in Japan (in your past life).
Alice: …and would like to know some first steps to take. I’m thinking of Egypt as the first country on my wish list.
Council: Wonderful. Go to Rome. Go to New York. Go to India. Go anywhere, anywhere at all because you wanted that so badly, and it was in the way in that last life when you were a monk. It took away a lot of the spirituality you were looking for. It took away the ability to be grateful for a lot of things. And so, this is a time where you do a do-over.
Bob: Any suggestion on how long Alice should travel around to these different places around the world?
Council: Whatever feels right. Always follow your feelings. You can go to one place and then, all of a sudden have this feeling, I have to go back to Japan. I have to go to those roots. I have to find out where I was and what it was like, and that can happen as quickly as possible, as quickly as you want to learn how to appreciate. And so just enjoy it. Travel for as long or as short a period as you need, and it will all come.
And so we send you love, and happiness, and joy, and adventure, and gratitude in everything that you do.

How Do I Get This Psychpath To Leave Me Alone?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Anon.
Anon: I have a question. This psychopath keeps cursing and psychically attacking me, and won’t leave me alone. How do I get him to completely leave me and my family alone? I’m really losing the will to live.
Council: Well looking at this we always ask you to take a look at what’s going on for you, because this didn’t just pop in and happen. You’ve created this. There’s a lesson in this.
And so we would say, take a look at feeling vulnerable, take a look at feeling out of control, and these are fears that you have gone through in past lifetimes. Now in your current lifetime it was created differently, but you are saying that this person is attacking you psychically. And so we would like you to look at your experience.
What are you experiencing psychically? Are you collapsing with a loss of energy? Are you unable to eat and your digestion is being affected? Are there terrible, terrible headaches that happen, which is part of being (the word we’ll use) attacked psychically?
So we would say it is very important for you to do the chakra breathing meditation. That will open your chakras, which are very closed down from what we see here. And once that begins to work, you’ll pull in stronger energy so if something is trying to attack you, latch onto you, whatever you believe, this will protect you.
And so it is important to know that you are the creator of this, and we’re sure that’s not a very nice thought, but it’s true. It is happening because you want to learn how to tap into your energy, how to become more powerful, and how to let go of your fears. And so it’s the chakra breathing, it is meditating, it is praying. Whatever helps you feel good.
There are different ways to protect yourself. Put a dark blue energy around yourself that sort of helps you disappear, and you feel that you can walk anywhere, and you would be safe. It is important to work with energy. It is important to work with colors. And that’s why we suggest first the chakra breathing.
There is no force that can attack you, that can do harm to you unless you allow it, unless you are afraid of it. If you were to stand in your power in a white light, there is nothing, absolutely nothing, that can hurt you.
So it is important, at this point, to work on your confidence, on your power, on believing and learning more about being spirit, and you are always protected by spirits that are around.
So this old belief of someone attacking you psychically, taking your life… There are stories of lower spirits that come to someone because they want to take over a person’s life, or they are attracted to their light. No matter what stories that you have heard, or you believe, it will not happen if you do not allow it. You are not out of control. You are not helpless.
Work immediately going to sleep every night and surround yourself with white light. Surround your family with white light. Surround your house with white light. And know, absolutely know, you are safe. It is a lesson that you have created to work on fear and to find your power. That is what’s going on. And all of this will stop, and it will all fade away if you do the work.
And so we send you love, and happiness, and joy, and adventure, and gratitude in everything that you do.

Why Am I So Attracted To This Man?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader who goes by the initial, A.
A: Am I and the person I’m thinking about meant to have a romantic relationship in this life?
Council: We would say when you created this reality (this lifetime), what we see, and the conversation going on with this spirit was, again, something where you would come together and sort of see where it goes. We do not see you planning a romantic, long-term relationship, but more of a, let’s get together and see what happens.
Which makes it wonderful because from your standpoint you can create it any way you want to, where you are friends, good friends, or you have some fun and you go your separate ways. Or you can make this something permanent. And you can also pick how it goes, what you want to do together, what you want to learn, and how you want to find a way to serve and help others.
And so you have a whole new path in front of you. And it’s very, very good because it’s wide open. Decide what you want, think of it happening, and see it. Does it feel good? Then go for it.
A: Can you please tell me the specific reason I’m so attracted to him in this life?
Council: Oh, we see here two lives where you were a husband and wife team. So that familiar feeling, that bond is still there. And they were good lifetimes, so there’s a lot of happiness that, on a subconscious level, you both would remember. And so it’s sort of like, “Okay. Here we are. Let’s have some fun. Where do we go from here?” So enjoy it.
And so we give you blessings, we send you love, and light, and excitement on your path. And know, and really, really think about it, and know you are spirit, and you can create anything that you want.
Listen to the entire 3-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for A and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel about it.

What Was Done To Me During My Alien Visitations?
This post answers questions for The Council from an anonymous reader. These are follow-up questions from our post, Do I Have Hybrid Children?
Anonymous: I very much appreciate your response to my question and the attention to staying focused on my current physical reality. I feel as though the visitations had a profound effect on my current reality, and I would really like to know what was done during these visits, and why.
Council: We would like to say here that nothing was done. It was a sharing of information. The visitations were to find out what you have learned: information, how you can learn more, what to look for, people that you will be drawn to, who they really are, and if you’ve had experiences with them before.
So it’s just sort of a sit-down meeting and exchange of information. There’s no testing, like some people believe. There’s nothing physically going on. It’s a visit to see how you are doing, how you are handling everything in this reality, how this planet, this reality that you’re in now, how is that doing. And so you’re sort of having a news meeting. They tell you what’s going on from where you were last. You are telling them what you’ve learned here, how to go forward, and what else to look for.
Anonymous: I look forward to continuing my learning process here with everything, and seeing where it takes me, and what I can create.
Council: So we would say when you’re in new situations, or you are around new people, what you’ve been taught, if you don’t remember, is to not so much listen to what they say, but how do you feel around them? Is it a good feeling? A knowing feeling? And that will give you the energy to go on because there’s a connection there.
And throughout this reality, you will meet people that have come from different places, like you. And what you learn from them, simple little things, will mean a lot for what you’re trying to understand why you are here. So again, we would say the most important thing is to pay attention to how you feel around different people.
Anonymous: Thank you.
Council: Keep wondering, keep looking. It’s a wonderful journey, and you will learn much.
And so we give you blessings. We give you love and light, and excitement on your paths. And know, and really, really think about it, and know you are spirit, and you can create anything that you want.

What Should I Do About An Ended Relationship I Can’t Move On From?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, DSS.
DSS: My romantic relationship of 7 1/2 years ended in February and I can’t move on. I feel so drawn, even obsessed, that I desire to be this man’s wife. Please help me with clarity. Should I continue to focus on a loving and wonderful relationship with this specific man, or should I focus on the same wonderful qualities with someone new?
Council: Well right there let’s say – which we’ve said many, many times – the way the question is phrased we will never ever tell you what to do, to tell you to move on or hold on, bend this, keep going, or hang on. The answer is within you.
And one of the reasons everyone is here at this time is to learn to listen to their feelings [from spirit]. And the feelings will always make you feel good. They will always be feelings of love.
So you ask about this person and you say that you cannot move on. That is the physical or human part of you that’s afraid to move on. There may be much better future partners for you. Or there may be a time where you would learn to meditate, a time to learn how to manifest, and you create what it is that you do want. And so it is possible for you to have anything, but to get there you have to realize, #1, the choice is yours, and you have to do the inner work to know that your journey starts in spirit.
Now we look and we see, was there anything created where you would be together this lifetime. And we see, yes, but more of a friendship, more of two ships passing in the night. And where you may not have a relationship, even a friendship right now, it was planned that you would sort of come in and out of each other’s lives. So now you ask yourself, what is it that you want? Are you okay with a friendship where you just come together every now and then, or do you want this romantic relationship?
So #1, if you want this relationship, you begin to meditate, you do things to get your vibration to rise. And you do that by thinking loving thoughts, funny thoughts, great memories, whatever makes you sit there and smile. When you’re finally in that place, then detail by detail you imagine what you want. If you want a life with this person, what does it look like? What do you do? And you don’t always have to know how it’s going to happen, but you’re going to put out there that it’s happening, and the universe will take care of it.
So #1, the thoughts, the imaging, that is sending the energy out to the universe, and the main key is feeling that you already have it. What does it feel like being married? Or being together again? And as a little child would pretend to be a movie star of an astronaut, you pretend. You look for that feeling that it is already really happening, and pay attention to how you feel. And the happier you feel about it, the quicker you can bring that in. So the work, the whole thing, deciding what you want, how to do it, how to manifest it and get it to happen, it’s all up to you.
And so we give you blessings, we send you love, and light, and excitement on your paths. And know, and really, really think about it and know you are spirit, and you can create anything that you want.

Communicatimg With Your Shadow To Overcome Fear
Bob & Cynthia’s Note: As you may be aware, the vast majority of our posts represent conversations we’ve had with The Council to answer questions our readers have written to us in the Comments boxes that appear at the end of most of our posts. Occasionally a reader who pays us for a private half-hour telephone session with The Council receives guidance that we feel will benefit other readers, and we ask this reader’s permission to publish their session. This post represents one of these private sessions.
Cynthia and I particularly like the following Council guidance in this session: When you try to avoid whatever is in your shadow space, it makes it bigger because the more you are afraid of it, the more you won’t deal with it, [and] it will grow on its own.
We like The Council’s idea that each individual is the creator of whatever is in their shadow, and they have the power to change their shadow. We also like the way The Council’s ideas expressed in previous posts on the power of your personal choice, the importance of what you focus on, and the importance of getting yourself into a place where you feel kind of good to create what you desire., are worked into this session.
We owe a great deal of thanks to the anonymous reader who allowed us to make this session available to all of you. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
Anonymous: The first question would be if there’s any advice to resolve the war within my mind?
Council: Well what we see in this particular reality that you created is that you wanted to have challenges that took you into good places and not good places, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. But you did want to learn about the positive and about the negative. And so we would say, be open to the challenges that come into your mind. When you become very accepting of both positive and negative answers, little by little it will become clearer.
And is there anything in the negative that you can’t handle, that you find either upsetting, or frightening, or you can’t seem to get a grasp on it? Because we do see in your thoughts and in your mind what goes on. There’s a sort of chaos. It goes back and forth, back and forth. So we would say, what bothers you the most?
Anonymous: So the biggest thing is the fear. There’s a part of me that fears I can’t recover from parental criticism. It just constantly sabotages my opportunities. I want to stay invisible.
Council: So that is part of what you’ve created in this lifetime. So when you think of the criticism from parents or others, anybody in authority, why do you feel that must affect you now? Because there are many people who have gone through bad childhoods and adulthoods, and they realize what they’ve gone through, but don’t let themselves stay in that energy. So why do you feel this fear will hold you back, or that it will bring you down, and that it has a hold on you? Because as you know, your thoughts, how you think about things, whether it’s negative or positive, is going to affect your life. So what is it that you fear and you hold onto?
Anonymous: Well it’s not a conscious thing. It’s like an animal that gets burned. I mean, when I really see fire, it’s just a complete reaction. And so the question is, how does one get over this when it’s just… You know, prayer has not worked, and I can’t seem to convince this part of me that there’s no danger in becoming accomplished.
Council: So we would suggest that you go into this shadow part, or fear-held part. Go right into it because it has a hold on you, whether consciously or unconsciously. So there’s a way you can sit and meditate, and when you go into the shadow part, you can picture it as opening a door and you’re in. Everything that can hold you back, anything that’s fearful, is in there.
So we always work with imagery, and the answers come up easier that way. So you would go into this shadow, this dark part of you, and you would start looking for it. Some people go into their childhood home and they picture they’re walking through it, and they find their shadow there, but you don’t have to go that way. You just go into the room where your shadow self is. Now you start looking, and you search for whatever is there that you need to get rid of or make peace with.
And as you look around, a shape will appear. Expect a shape, a color, anything, and it doesn’t have to make sense what it is. It could be a peanut. It could be anything. And now you begin to talk to it. And you can ask it why it’s there. You can ask it why it got there, and tell it that it’s not beneficial for you in this life, and so you’d like to remove it.
And when you start seeing this shape – a peanut, a ball, a person, anything – you look at it and then look at yourself. Where are you attached? There are many, many chords that are going from this fear place to you. So it will go from that object to places in your body. There could be ten of them, there could be 100 of them, and you begin to cut the chords. And each time you cut a chord, you are releasing it. You may not feel it right away. You may have to do it day after day, where you go in and you find the shape and you talk to it again. Does it want to tell you anything? What was its purpose for being there? And again you start cutting the chords. And you tell it, “Okay, you’re not needed right now. You did your job. I am in fear. I’m upset about the future, or how you [the fear] can hold me back.” And again, you continue to cut these chords.
And after you do this for however many days it takes, you tell this shadow part of you that now I am bringing something in that will show you the light, that will help me replace you with something else that will release me from this fear. So now you start looking at what came in with you. Is there someone standing next to you? Is there a box you’re holding, and you need to open the box and let this shape out? You replace what the fear looks like, what the shadow looks like, with light, with things that are going to go with you into your future and make it easier. So eventually, and it does take time, and it’s really all up to you, if you do the work, it will happen.
So #1, you have to be ready to go into the shadow place. Some people do a countdown. You can picture stairs, and each stair has a number from one to seven. And as you go down you see the first step, and it’s red with the #1. And then you go deeper, and the step is #2, and it’s orange. The third step would be #3 and it’s yellow. The fourth step would be green. Then the fifth step is a light blue. The sixth step is an indigo color. And the seventh step is purple. Those are the colors of the chakras. So as you go down the stairs, you know there is a doorway, and that’s the place you’ll meet your shadow.
So when you do this imagery, it works faster than if you try to figure it out with your head. Just go into it and ask what it is. “Give me a shape. Give me a color. Why are you here? What can you tell me?” And you no longer need this shadow. You start cutting those chords, and after a while you bring something in. And every time you go in, you talk to that shadow. So now you finally start telling the shadow, “Okay, I don’t need you anymore in this lifetime. And so this is what is here to help me. And you start every time you come in. You bring whatever it is – the shape, the color, a person, anything – that will help you. And then as that gets stronger, you will see the shadow part disappear. It will get smaller. The chords will not grow anymore. You will not be attached. And then you know on a subconscious level you have released something, and you don’t have to know what it is. You can’t figure it out with your head. It’s an emotion. It’s a feeling.
And once you really feel something has changed and something is happening here – maybe you don’t feel that fearful, maybe you don’t feel the heaviness or a darkness around you – as you begin to see the little bits that have changed, that will happen in your life consciously. Your life will begin to change. Your thoughts will begin to change because now you have made peace with the shadow, There’s nothing to be afraid of. You’ve had any sort of conversation you need with your shadow.
But the key to doing this is to go into it. When you try to avoid whatever is in your shadow space, it makes it bigger because the more you are afraid of it, the more you won’t deal with it, it will grow on its own.
And what you should know here is that this is not something that’s happening to you because you don’t know who did this to you, or why it’s there. You have created it because in this lifetime you want to deal with your shadow part. In other lifetimes there were things that were hurtful, as everybody has had, and it could be that you brought it forward into your current life to heal it. So you wanted to take that challenge on. And it is a very courageous step to take that challenge, to go into it, and make peace with it.
And we know you don’t particularly care for the positive thinking. It has nothing to do with that. It has to do with your strength, and how you handle yourself when you’re ready to look at your shadow. And even if you aren’t ready now, that’s fine. There’s no right time or wrong time. You can think about it for a long time before you even start. You can go very slowly, but it’s always very important to remember that you chose this. You wanted this before you came into this lifetime because there’s a lot of healing in there and it will make up for a lot of other lifetimes, and you wanted to deal with it.
And it is a lot, but what we see here, you do have a strong mind, and we feel you can do this. Or you can do it any other way that feels good for you. If it’s not what we suggested, then just think, “I’m going into this shadow room, and I will find a way. And if there’s something that feels more comfortable for you to do, then we say play with, it and if it doesn’t work, then you can do what we suggested.
You are the creator of everything that’s going to happen in that shadow room. That’s how powerful you are. And everyone has a shadow, and in some lifetimes you’ll work with it, and in other lifetimes you want no part of it. And there are sometimes you create a very, very busy life and you have no time for meditation, no time for reading, and finding out about these parts of your life. And so, right now, what you are going through, you are in control.
Do you have any questions about that?
Anonymous: No, that’s pretty self-contained.
Do you have tips on developing self-discipline and having a structured life?
Council: What do you mean by structured? What do you want to have control over or a structured way? What is it that you’d like to do?
Anonymous: I tend to live my life very amorphously, and sort of let outside events dictate what I work on. Whereas other people obviously sort of schedule things and have, you know, this is what I’m going to work on, and it’s more effective that way, and that doesn’t come naturally to me. So the question is, are there tips on having a more structured life? I’m dealing with things without letting life dictate priorities.
Council: So #1, and this is very important, you have to get to the point where you know you’re not just this human being hanging out. You are a spirit, a very, very powerful spirit. When you came into this reality, one of the biggest things you took with you is the power of choice. You have choices about everything. And some people are afraid to make decisions, and we say, do whatever it is you want. If you make what you think is a wrong decision or something that’s not working, so what? So you change your mind. You make another decision.
You have to know you’re a very powerful spirit, you have choices, and what you focus on, whether you write it down, draw pictures of it, or you just imagine, you have to find out, what do you want in your life? Because if you don’t have the discipline to create what you want, the universe steps in and creates for you, and you may not like the way it’s going. So you have to start thinking, “Alright, you know these weird things happen. I’m not creating it.” You acknowledge that you’re just going along with whatever happens to you, and you want the discipline to change it. And the way you change it, and the only way you change it, is by what you focus on. So if you focus on, “Well, I have no choice. I just have to go along with this, and everybody else can create.” Well we have news for you. You can create like everybody else.
You have to do the work. How do you do it? Number 1, before you start trying to create, you have to get yourself into a place where you feel kind of good. And we say you do that by thinking of a memory, something that makes you happy, or a fantasy, and you stay in that thought until you sort of feel yourself smiling. You feel light. Your energy changes. It will get lighter. You will feel it. When that joy comes in, as little as it does in the beginning when you can feel that happiness, that joy, that’s when you start to create, and not before it. So how do you create? You work, you find that energy, something in your life that makes you happy.
Once you get the feeling, now you start to picture in your head what you want. And this is where some people get lazy. They don’t know what they want. Well you have to find out. Read books, watch movies, find things on the internet that interest you. Find out what you want, and then start to see it. Start seeing yourself doing it. And you can start doing that, and then after a while, no, that’s not what I want. Okay, fine. So change your thoughts.
Now when you think, that sends your thought, your energy, out into the universe. And the way it works, that’s really nice, you’re sending it out there, you want it to happen, but the key is not just the thought. You have to have the feeling. The feeling is the magnet that brings what you want back to you. The thoughts and images send it out, and the feeling brings it back to you. So like a child when you were little. maybe you could pretend you were a cowboy, or a spaceman, or whatever. You do the same thing with what you want to create. You see it, and you send it out, and then you start to feel it. You imagine as if you’re already doing what it is that you want, whether it’s a new job, a relationship, moving, anything.
You reach for the feeling that you already have it. That feeling is the key. And that’s the part that most people forget. They forget that you have to pretend, like a little kid, that you have it, that you’re doing it. And when you do that, it’s amazing how, even if you start with a little thought, you’ll see it happen. And then your thoughts could become stronger. You want more. You see yourself. And when you’re feeling it, you get extremely happy. Like, oh my God, I’m doing this, I’m doing that. But we see here you have to do the work to find out what it is you want, what it is that would make you happy. You have to take the chance. And it’s work. It’s work on yourself, but it’s not only the thought, it’s the feelings.
It’s going into seeing whatever is in the shadow and changing it, and knowing you can change it by talking to your shadow, bringing something to replace it. Then start finding happiness. There had to be happiness in your past somewhere. Find thoughts that make you happy. Then when you feel that happiness – you see how we keep saying, “Feeling”? – it’s because feeling is the key. Feel it. Imagine what you want. Feel it. And that’s how you take control of your life. You pretend. And once you pretend and feel it, you can move mountains, but it takes work.
And also you can do things to help your chakras align better so that the right amount of energy comes into each chakra. And there is a chakra breathing exercise that we have taught people. We’ll ask Bob to send it to you. If you do it, you will be amazed. Even if you do it once a week, because those chakras control different parts of your life – your relationships, your money, your love life, the connection with your purpose in life. It gives you clarity, but the chakra must be aligned, and we see there are some on you that are not aligned.
So we would say, you do all seven chakras at least once a week. You can do it more if you want. It will never ever hurt you, but it brings in the strong energy you need to move forward to face whatever it is, and to get in touch with, “Oh my God, I am so powerful and I didn’t know. I didn’t know how to keep that thought, that feeling that I have created everything I am going through, that I have gone through. I have created every single thing. No one can create for me. So now I align the chakras, I do the work to find what I want.” You go into your shadow, you bring in happiness, or whatever it is you need – light in your shadow – and you move forward. You do the work. It’s a lot of work, but you are at a point in your life, we see, that you are ready to do this.

What Is My Life Purpose, And Is There A Guardian Angel Who Can Help Me?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, ShYam.
ShYam: Can The Council tell me the purpose of my life?
Council: To be. To come here and have fun. That was the idea, to come here and have fun, and to be surprised by what you create, and how you handle it. And we cannot say you came here to be the President, or you wanted to have your own company. You wanted to explore. And it was very important for you to meet many different people. Even creating situations where people would come in and out of your life, and nothing would make sense, but you would learn from it. You are always here to learn. Always.
And so you are here to just see what you create, and to work with your mind and your feelings. Once you know how to do this, to get yourself in a high vibration by being happy, and once you feel that happiness, you start thinking of what it is you would want, anything in the world. What is it you want? And see it with your thoughts, and feel it. Feel it like you already have it, and watch as it comes to you.
And so it was planned to be a very playful life, and to have the experience of moving around a lot. And as you go, you will create it the way you want it. And as you see different things, you will add them to what you want to experience.
So it is a very freeing life. You just wanted to come in and be. And you thought, “If I have any hard or difficult situations, I will see how I handle it, and then how I look at it again and then change the way that looks, and look at it differently. And then as I’m looking at that, change it, and think of it differently until I think of it better, and better, and better, and see it, and feel it. And then it will occur to you, “Oh my God, I am creating what is going on.” And that was your big adventure.
Bob: When you say moving around a lot, do you mean moving the place where ShYam lives?
Council: Yes.
ShYam: Is there a guardian angel who I could seek out help from?
Council: We all have spirit guides or guardian angels, and they are always, always with you, and you can speak to them. But when you speak to them, make sure you have quiet time to hear them, because they will try to talk to you and connect with you to give you better ideas.
And if there’s anything in your life that you really want to do, then you would ask for an angel or a guide that knows about, for example, building houses, if you want to learn about building a house. Ask for help on learning how to build a house. If you want to be a chef, you want an angel that knows a lot about cooking, a guide that has been in a human body that has lived it. Maybe they were a great chef.
In the spirit world, they will come to you. Just ask. When you ask, and you get quiet, you will be shown the way.
ShYam: If there’s a guardian angel, how can I ask for help?
Council: Sit in a chair. Some people like to light a candle. Make it a ritual – incense, music, whatever. Sit quiet and then say, “I’m thinking in this part of my life there are areas I need help, and I need guidance. I need my guide to come in and show me the way. I want to learn how to build a fence. I need an angel or a guide that knows how to do this, and maybe will bring me to the right place where I will learn how to do it. Keep asking for what you want and you will always, always be sent the answer.
Bob: Thank you very much for your answers to ShYam’s questions.
Council: Well this was indeed a wonderful day, and we enjoyed these questions. And to everyone who asks for our help, we are overjoyed when we are asked for help. We want you all to know that we are always with you, and we always send you healing energy. And just know that, no matter what, you are not alone. We are here. Talk to us like we are sitting right next to you. Make us part of your life, because what we want is for spirit to come into your reality and for you to learn that you are spirit. You are part of us, and we are part of you. And as you go through joys, and hardships, and challenges, and rewards, we go with you. And so we send you blessings, and love, and light.

Does My Girlfriend Have Spiritual Insights, Or Is She Crazy?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Gašper.
Gašper: Hi, Bob and Cythia. Thank you for these great posts. It does relate to what I’m bringing into my life, although it seems strange to me why I would bring myself difficulties, as there are so many options for me to have fun on Earth.
Council: Because when you are in spirit, you have an idea of what you may want to create, what challenges you want to face, and how you want to work through them. And so this is all setup, and now we would say, “How are you handling your challenge?”
Gašper: I wonder if I can directly ask a related question here? My girlfriend of 11 years has completely changed from being shy to being extroverted and intensely spiritual. She claims she’s the reincarnation of Jesus Christ and listens to literature relating to him and other spiritual things like the Tao Te Ching, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, and so on. But a lot of people suggest that she’s delusional, although she says many things that seem wise and spiritual. She claims that she feels pain all across her body and connects that to the crucifixion in her previous lifetime.
I don’t know where she’s at. Is she a mental patient who’s psychotic and schizophrenic, or are these spiritual insights real that she claims she can feel and understand?
Council: Unfortunately there are many people that are in institutions that are thought to be psychotic and out of their minds, and in fact they are experiencing what they say, for whatever reason that they worked out in spirit.
Now with this person, being an introvert and not sure who she was or what she wanted, she was very sad, and wanted to be this kind of person and that kind of person, and just lost her way. But how she handled it is – and many people would not understand this – to make herself happy she has connected with many lives that she has had. She has connected with things she has imagined she would like to do, and this has taken over her personality.
And this person is very happy thinking she’s Jesus Christ, or a saint, or someone that is very happy, that is very aware of their life, that is able to practice prayers, that is able to practice shamanic beliefs and pagan beliefs. There are many, many lives that she has experienced that she just opened up to in this lifetime because there was such a horrendous not knowing and not being happy with who she was. We hope that is understood?
Gašper: Life with her has become increasingly difficult, as I find her behavior, which includes shamanic dances, singing, yelling, and shaking during sleeping very odd, uncomfortable, and unsocial.
Council: Of course. This is very unacceptable in our reality and our culture. So her being happy and tapping into these different lives sets everybody around her thinking, “This person is crazy.” She’s not crazy. She’s tapping into all the other little pieces of her that she went through in other lifetimes. This doesn’t make it easy for you or the people around her.
Now we have come here to help each other. We have come here to just be. And so in your place, we would say kindness is the best thing you can give her, and maybe talking about things that she experienced before these changes came. You can talk to her and ask her how she changed when she was so quiet, and see what she’s able to tell you.
And you will learn from this, and that is part of this. This is a big experience for her to help you learn about other lives and about so much more than you can experience in this lifetime. This is opening a door for her and for you. How you wish to handle it and what you can feel is comfortable is for you to decide. But we would say, there is no excuse for meanness, and there is no excuse for anger or violence. And we’d like to make that very clear.
And so now you have to play with the thought of what she’s going through. How does it affect you? What are you learning? And how do you want to go forward with this?
Gašper: And my friends and family tell me that I’d better escape such a partnership.
Council: If you wanted to escape it before the lesson is finished, you wouldn’t have created it.
Gašper: I regret that I was aggressive towards her yesterday due to her behavior. I promised to her and myself not to act that way again. It’s as if she and I don’t live in the same world, and that the truth doesn’t lie in either of these two worlds. Thank you.
Council: And so again we would say, you both created this situation and agreed to it. Besides being frustrated or worried and hearing everybody else telling you that she is nuts, what are you learning? What kind of person is she when she’s doing these other things? How does she act when she thinks she is Jesus? How does she act when she’s doing shamanic dancing? Everything that she does, look at this and learn. There are things in here you will learn from.
There is a possibility that in time she can revert back to what she wants to experience here, but maybe be more extroverted, maybe being able to understand and see what she’s gone through, and then take it to the next level.
And so we would say, do what you can, watch this behavior, and forget everybody else’s opinions. What are you learning? Could there be a grain of truth to what your girlfriend is saying? Yes, there is. And now you know she went there because she was so unhappy being who she was. And she is so happy when she is dancing, or in ritual, or reading a bible, or telling a story about Jesus. Watch how the personality changes, and you will see how she was in all these other lives.
Bob: So it sounds like you’re saying that Gašper and his girlfriend had pre-arranged in spirit to have this kind of relationship…
Council: Yes.
Gašper: …and that he planned to see it through? Because it sounds like he’s questioning whether or not to leave his girlfriend.
Council: The idea was to go through it together and learn from it. And that’s where it is right now. Now is the learning process. If you look at what’s going on right now without judgement, without flipping out and thinking she is nuts, but look at the different lives she’s lived, look at the different personality when she becomes each one of them, and in there is something you both wanted to learn. And we don’t give that away because then we’re handing you your lesson. Just watch it. And then whether you wish to stay in it is totally up to you. But we would never tell you, “Yes, you have to stay there.” No, you don’t. But be in it, and learn from it. And I think if all goes the way you wish it would go, then eventually things, whether it’s by running to a doctor and getting medication, something will turn it around. The idea was to be in it and learn in it. Learn about that person, and then – surprise, surprise – learn about yourself. Who are you while this is happening? How do you handle it?
Very, very brave spirits. This was indeed a wonderful day and we enjoyed these questions. And to everyone who asks for our help, we are overjoyed when we are asked for help. We want you all to know that we are always with you. We always send you healing energy. And just know that no matter what, you are not alone. We are here. Talk to us like we are sitting right next to you. Make us part of your life, because what we want is for spirit to come into your reality, for you to learn that you are spirit.

How Can I Find Happiness and Children After Divorce?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Eva, in response to our post, Should I Give This Man Who’s Come Back Into My Life A Second Chance?
Eva: Dear Bob, and Dear Cynthia. This is a follow-up question on the same subject, and I would really love to hear from you again.
I ended up getting a divorce, and that was something inevitable because my ex-husband and I kind of realized we would never be able to work things out.
My lover from the past, who has also gotten a divorce, has a very energetic role in my current life, and we’ve decided to be together and to try to have a child of our own. Do you think that the universe will give us a second chance? I really can’t describe the obstacles that we have overcome in order to be together, and that we both share the thought that we should stay together no matter what.
At this point I’d like to add that it seems my ex-husband has accepted this reality and doesn’t create any problems.
Thanks for your time. I’m looking forward to getting an answer from you. Love and light.
Bob: So do you think that the universe will give Eva and her new partner a second chance?
Council: So we see you say you got a divorce, and this man (your current partner) also got a divorce. And we see what you would like for yourself is a permanent family. And where we would never tell you what to do, you should be very clear with your new partner about what you want.
And have the two of you talked about marriage? Because sometimes people stay together, but one wants marriage, and the other partner doesn’t want to go there for whatever reason. We would say, be very, very clear about what you want at this time and with this person.
Can you make this marriage work? Of course you can. You know how to do it. You focus on what you want. You concentrate on the both of you going forward with the dream you have for however you want to see it and change it. Your ex-husband not interfering now is a good start.
So we would say, what is it you want? Do you want to be married to this person? Do you want a permanent home? Then you should state that, and make that very clear, and go ahead and move forward and do it.
If you’re a little iffy – we’ll stay together no matter what – we can see in your energy there’s a little tiny bit of doubt there. So once again, you would be the creator. If you want this, and if your partner wants it, then we would say, make it clear what it is that you want, and move forward with happy thoughts, with happy images, and then you will create it.
Bob: Thank you very much for your answers to Eva’s questions.
Council: Well this was indeed a wonderful day, and we enjoyed these questions. And to everyone who asks for our help, we are overjoyed when we are asked for help. We want you all to know that we are always with you. We always send you healing energy. And just know that no matter what, you are not alone. We are here. Talk to us like we are sitting next to you. Make us part of your life, because what we want is for spirit to come into your reality so you can learn that you are spirit. You are part of us. We are part of you.

Will I Ever Have An Intimate Relationship?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Derek.
Derek: Hello. I have come to you once before, several years ago, in the most crucial and largest turning point in my life. You gave me very intimate and heart-wrenchingly sound advice. This question is one that’s been on my mind but has been building a lot over the last few years.
I’m nearing 27 years old, and I’ve never had an intimate relationship. I’ve never had a girlfriend because I just feel that I’m too different from the people I come across to make anything work. For my sake and theirs, I have avoided it.
Council: When you speak of being different, do you feel less than, or more than? Do you feel like you don’t fit in? So we would ask you to play with those thoughts and see the feelings and thoughts that come to you when you think of being different.
Sometimes thinking you’re different makes you feel very wonderful because you have a lot to offer. Others think that by being different, you are less than, you don’t equal up to everything, or you have nothing to offer. So there are different ways to look at this. And we would say for you, your difference is that you are you.
You have come to this reality to work through challenges, which we will talk about. And you are different because each spirit is different in different lifetimes, and at different times of one life where there are many things you wish to learn.
And so yes, there is a difference, but it is a good difference, and we would like you to try to convince yourself to think about, “How am I different? And are there people that are also different that are looking for partners, or better jobs, to improve their life?”
But we want you to know, what you have planned is definitely different, but it doesn’t make you less than. It doesn’t mean that you cannot have a relationship. So if you think you are different, and you cannot have a relationship, we ask you to change that focus, and get excited about who you’ll meet, who will also be different in their own way. And keep that door open, that you are excited, and you want to pull in another person that you feel is different.
Derek: I long for an intimate spiritual friendship that I know is really my yearning for spirit. However, I have not advanced far enough along yet to experience God intimately in meditation.
Council: You can always sit quietly in a chair and talk to God, whether you feel it or not. It’s a connection that’s always there. You don’t have to reach a certain level, but begin to know in your heart that God is there listening, speaking to you, and you are open to making the connection even greater than it is.
Derek: I know I ultimately have control over my life…
Council: Well that is true.
Derek: …and it’s my decision whether or not to pursue God quickly and directly alone, or maybe through another.
Council: Let us say here, it’s wonderful you are seeking God, and many people do in their own way. But you are saying to directly seek God, or perhaps find God through another – yes, people that come together that feel a great bond, even if they have a life with challenges, that bond with that person is helping you both seek God. It’s helping you both connect with God.
So there is no, “Should I or shouldn’t I have a relationship.” A relationship will not prevent you from connecting with God. There is a coming together. And when spirits come together, you connect with God whether you know it or not. But for you to think you either do it alone or do it with another person, we say you can do it with another person. Many people do it with another person. And so, do not feel it must be one way, or you get to leave and stay by yourself.
Derek: I have only been working with a girl at work for three days (as of typing this), and we’ve barely spoken, but I feel a strong connection to her. I’ve gotten lovesick for at least one other girl in the past that destroyed me for a time. Is my heart accurate in my sudden feelings for this girl in particular?
Council: We would say that the feeling that you are getting with this girl is showing us that you are in a place where your thoughts are different, that you are becoming more open to a relationship, that what you are going through is allowing another person, another possibility of someone to come into your life.
That doesn’t necessarily mean this is the forever person. But little by little we see here that you will try to bring in someone in your life, and that is a step forward for you. This is very, very good. And so if it works, it is wonderful. If it doesn’t work, then you will bring in someone else. You are in that place of letting go of the past and what you wanted to experience in this lifetime.
Derek: Am I meant to be with another in this life?
Council: If that is what you want.
What has happened is in one of your past lives you had many partners, so to speak. You visited many brothels, and that was your life, going woman, to woman, to woman. And towards the end of your life, you were very disappointed and sad that your life didn’t become more, where there was someone special in your life. You just went and had many, many women.
And so on leaving that lifetime you thought, “Well, the next lifetime I will forget all this running around. I will just have a life for me.” And so that is why you have not been bringing somebody in. But in spirit, before you came into this life, you decided you wanted to bring somebody in, but it would be one person who would be special. You would be special to each other. There wouldn’t be running to brothels or loneliness. You will find the in-between place. The happiness that you wanted with family and with an intimate relationship. And that is what you are trying to work through this lifetime. Isn’t that clever of you?
Derek: If I’m not meant to have somebody in my life, I will no doubt continue to seek the Lord with as much zeal as I can muster.
Council: Seek the Lord anyway, but you are meant to have somebody in your life. That’s what you wanted to work through. But it is your focus. No one can do this for you. You can think about this life we have told you about, and you can play what we call “connect the dots”, and realize, okay, in that life you had too many women, but nothing personal or that meant a lot. And then in this life, so far you’ve had nothing.
So now you can see why you have nothing now. This is what you created. You wanted to see what it would be like to just be by yourself. But now you have done that, and now you can focus on, “Okay, I’m letting go of the challenge of that past life, and I want someone special in my life”. And as you focus and meditate on that, your life will begin to change.
Derek: The path has been very difficult and lonely though. I don’t know if it’s appropriate to ask for a timeline, but when will I meet this girl, if ever? When will I marry, if ever?
Council: You can marry. You will meet someone, but the timeline, that is up to you. How much energy do you put into meditating on this? Getting excited about this? Feeling like, “This is what it’s like if I meet someone?” And start imagining what it would be like. You are the one who does the work.
And so, if you do it a lot, you’ll pull someone in quicker. If you just imagine what it would be like every now and then and then get depressed, it will take longer. It is all up to you. The timeline is up to you. Did you want to have someone in your life this time? Yes. And if you do the work, that will happen.
Derek: Is there one out there looking for me the way I am looking for them?
Council: Yes, there is.
Derek: Will a relationship delay my search for God?
Council: Never. You will search together. That’s the beauty of it.
Derek: Thank you. I love you.
Council: And we love you.
Bob: Thank you for your answers to Derek’s questions.
Council: Well this was indeed a wonderful day, and we enjoyed these questions. And to everyone who asks for our help, we are overjoyed when we are asked for help. We want you to know that we are always with you. We always send you healing energy. And just know that no matter what, you are not alone. We are here. Talk to us like we are sitting right next to you. Make us part of your life because what we want is for spirit to come into your reality for you to learn that you are spirit. You are part of us. We are part of you. And as you go through joys, and hardships, and challenges, and rewards, we go with you.

Will I Face My Poor Decisions When I Review My Life In Spirit?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Courtney.
Courtney: Hello Bob, Cynthia, and The Council. I have made some decisions in the past that have affected people negatively. I feel terrible about this and it’s eating me up. My question is: Will I have to face these decisions of mine when I go through my life review in spirit?
Council: Let’s say that you are facing them right now because you are remembering what the decisions were, and you are feeling guilty about it, or sorry about it. So you’re already facing it.
But if you’re asking, “Are you going to go to the afterlife and have to be judged by what you did or what you said,” the answer is, no, that does not happen. You only go through it again if, at the spirit level, there’s something you need explained, or you don’t understand why you did something, or what the purpose was.
But there’s no reason you have to go through that at all. It’s just an experience. And what is wanted when you choose to do these things is that you will learn, but you will learn while you are here, as a human, in this reality. And this is what you are doing now, and that’s a wonderful thing.
Courtney: Or were these decisions planned in spirit for the benefit of spiritual growth?
Council: Let’s say this. You don’t get to a place in spirit where you say, “I’m going to do this, you’re going to say that, and I’m going to come back and do this and it’s going to bother you. What you do is you pick a topic; it could be shame, it could be anger, it could be abandonment. You want to learn about something, so you agree with other spirits that will come in and help you, and you create as you go along. You haven’t agreed on what’s going to happen, but that what you want to learn will be experienced.
So it’s not word for word that you’ve planned to learn about something, and that is how it happens. But it’s never: “I’ll do exactly this, and you’ll do exactly that.” It’s about you saying, “Oh, I want to learn about being abandoned. What does that feel like? And what can I learn from it? How do I handle it? How do I behave?” So that is what is happening.
Courtney: I feel immense guilt and shame for things I’ve said and done.
Council: So forget about the guilt and think about how wonderful it is that you created a situation where you would experience what you needed to experience to move forward. So instead, pat yourself on the back and then ask yourself, “Do I like how I handled it? Did I like how I behaved, or what I said?” And that is how you learn.
“No, I didn’t like it, so I will never do that again. I see how hurtful it is.”
Or in a particular instance you answer, “Yes, it was bad, but I turned it around. I like the way I handled it.” And that is the purpose of what you are going through.
Courtney: Peace and love, Courtney.
Council: And so we send you all love, and happiness, and excitement that you are moving along on your path, and that all good things, all creation that comes to you will come from higher energy and a higher vibration. And everything you wish to have will be created by you, and only you.

How Can I Incarnate On Sirius With My Family Next Lifetime, And Make This My Last Incarnation On Earth?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Seeker.
Seeker: Hello Bob, Cynthia, and The Council. Thanks for the amazing work you guys do for people like me.
I want to ask a question related to my star system origin, which is Sirius. I would like this incarnation to be my last incarnation on Earth, and I would like to go back to my roots and incarnate in Sirius. I would also like my closest four family members – my mother, my father, my husband, and my child – to incarnate with me in Sirius.
Council: Well we have to say here that you being in this reality, and being in the human body wanting to go back to Sirius, and wanting this to be your last incarnation… We promise you, when you are no longer in this body, and you are somewhere else, or you are off resting, or helping someone by being a spirit, you will want to come back. You will want to come back to another life that you created.
Well you’re not going to go back and sit on a cloud, or sit around and just relax in a beautiful country setting. You are going to go back for a while, you are going to review (only if you wish) what you lived in this life, and how you would have done it better. And then when you are ready, you are going to want to jump in again. That is who spirit is. There is forever, there is growing, and there is resting.
You can rest for a thousand years and stay on Sirius. We will tell you that you will not want to do that. It sounds wonderful now, but you can stay there as long as you want, and you will choose to come back, whether in this reality on the planet Earth, or in another reality in another dimension. There is always so much going on, and you will want to be part of it.
As far as your family incarnating with you is concerned, you can’t make them do that. That is their decision if they want to incarnate, or go in different directions. We usually travel with the same souls. We are in a soul group or soul family, but that doesn’t mean they are going to want to go where you are at one particular time. There may be other things that they want to experience.
And so you love them and accept them, but of course, eventually you will all be together again.
Seeker: Can The Council please guide me if it’s possible for my family to incarnate with me in Sirius?
Council: If they want to. It’s always their choice, not your choice, their choice. And you may speak to them in spirit, and they may say, “Fine, let’s do it again.”
Seeker: If so, what are the steps we should follow to only be on Sirius going forward?
Council: In this reality you can use your imagination to think what it would be like back there, and to have the intention you want to be there. See what it’s like, the way you want it to be, but feel it as if it’s familiar, as if you’ve done it before.
And so you can set that up. But we can tell you that it will make you feel good here that you are setting it up, and yes you are. But when you get back in spirit, if you’re still going to want that, you’ll create it. But you may not want that when you are in spirit, but you can have comfort that you want to go back to Sirius, and you want to go home, and you want your family to be there.
Talk to their spirits at night. In your mind, talk to them and say, “This is what I want. This is what I want my next life to be like.” Is there an interest? Have a reason you want to be with them. Have a lesson that you want to learn, or a challenge, or how you want to be helpful. And as these discussions go on, you will all set it up when, and where, and how it can happen.
Seeker: I would also like to take some guidance in finding a job. Can The Council please guide me on how I can manifest a job in the Federal sector as a remote position?
Council: We would say for you, any Federal position that has to do with research of any kind, apply there.

I’m Struggling With Health Issues, And Falling Asleep During Meditation
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, The Law of One.
Law of One: Thank you both for all that you do. I contacted you once before a few years back when I was probably at the lowest point in my life, and your message played a pivotal role in taking the next steps necessary on my journey.
I’ve been struggling quite a lot with health issues since that time, however, and have gotten progressively worse. I am only 26 years old. I’ve exercised weekly for over a decade, I eat as healthy as possible, to the point of it being absolutely rediculous. However, it has gotten to the point where I constantly fall asleep during my meditative practice. To say this breaks my heart is an understatement.
Council: Well we would like to say here, if you’re exercising and doing all this stuff, and part of you knows that it’s rediculous, it’s your higher self telling you this. You need to relax. Try eating things that you might enjoy, but you don’t because you don’t think that it’s healthy. You could eat the healthiest food there is, and if you believe it’s not enough, it’s not going to help you. You could eat the most horrible food – greasy, or fried, or whatever you think is horrible – and if you know that your body loves this and it’s a lot of fun, that food will keep you healthy.
So #1, it’s your thoughts and your attitude. And we would say stop being so strict. So we would ask you to think, do you do that? Or you don’t feel right if you don’t do that exercise? Do you not feel right if you don’t eat a certain way? It’s all okay.
As far as your meditation goes, many, many people fall asleep, or fall into what they think is sleep while they meditate. When you sleep, as you come out of it, you come out slowly. You’re aware, “Oh, I was asleep. I’m sitting in this chair. Blah, blah, blah.” When you come out of a deep meditation where you don’t remember what went on there, you are – boom – awake. Like, “Oh, I fell asleep,” but you are wide awake. It’s not that, “Oh, you know, I’m slowly realizing that I fell asleep.” There’s a big difference.
Many, many people, when they meditate, go so deep in they have no memory of it, and they think they’re sleeping. But what happens is your higher self is learning things and communicating with spirits, and when the time comes that you need this information, you will remember it. So right there, let’s stop being hard on yourself, and know that you’re reaching your guides, you are reaching the spiritual world, and when the time comes, you will know what it is.
When you have the discipline to meditate all the time, it is not overlooked by spirits. The spirits will always reach out to you and try to get you to know that they are there, they’re working with you, and eventually you will feel it. But your purpose this lifetime was to relax and accept yourself with no authority, with no rules, with none of these, “You must do this, you must do that.” Just relax. When you learn to live that way, things will change in your life, and it will all be for the better.
Law of One: With regard to my meditation, it’s all I have and my only purpose, as far as I’m aware of. I just want to go home to spirit.
Council: You will go home to spirit eventually. There’s no rush.
Law of One: I will take any advice that you can offer me. I would appreciate, however, if there was some particular piece of advice that you could give that won’t go over my head.
Council: As simple as this sounds, we would really like you to find some nice, fun, pleasant things to do. If it’s to go and lay on a beach, if it’s to ride in a boat, if it’s to sit on a swing like when you were little, find some very simple things that will make you feel good.
Law of One: I feel like I’ve tried everything under the sun, and I’d like some peace and steadiness in my life. Thank you for your time.
Council: When you follow this information, you’ll see the difference taking place. It is so simple. Love yourself. Tell yourself in the mirror every morning, “I love you. Today will be a fun day. Today we’ll take it easy. I’m open to communicating with the spirits.” It will all happen.
(Bob’s Note: Ordinarily this is where The Council usually gives us some parting words which we call the closing, but this session ended without any closing thoughts.)

Is The Man In My Dreams From A Past Life?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Jayden. in response to our post, Do My Favorite Aunt And I Share A Past Life Connection?
Jayden: Hi. I also want to ask about my past life connection. Ever since I was a kid, I kept having these dreams or visions about a guy named, Liam.
Council: Ah, we would correct that. It was Len-Am. In the life that you’re referring to, everyone had a name, something they were called. And after that was, -Am, and that would tell people that’s who they were. So if your name was Joan, it would be, Joan-Am, or John-Am. So you were referring to Len-Am, who was a husband at that time, a wonderful relationship, and you were Mu-Am. So there was Len-Am and Mu-Am. Isn’t that wonderful? You were close.
Jayden: In my dream, he was usually lying in a hospital bed and seemed to be dying. I think I was his lover or married partner.
Council: You were his married partner.
Jayden: I used to think this was all my imagination until I learned about spirits because whenever I connected with him in my mind, I felt very intense emotions, like profound love for him and from him, but also lots of grief, and I always ended up crying. So I want to ask The Council, is he a real person from one of my past life memories?
Council: Yes, definitely. And you are still connected in spirit and working on other levels together.
Jayden: Or is he present in my current life right now as a spirit guide, and will I get to meet him in this lifetime?
Council: There is a possibility you would meet when you are much older, and that is a possibility that was wanted by the two of you in spirit. And so if you both want to create it, that will happen. But for now, the connection is there. And connect through your thoughts with this spirit.
Bob: Would you say that Len-Am would be considered a spirit guide to Jayden at this point?
Council: Yes, we would say that. This person is in spirit and helping Jayden. And they are still on some level creating as they are going along in their current lifetime. So we say, there is that possibility where they do meet at a much later age.
Jayden: It would be lovely if you can add any extra details or insights about this, or anything relevant that I need to know at this point in my life. Thank you, and lots of love and light to you all.
Council: And so we say what is most important now is to realize you are still spirit, not in the physical sense yet, but spirit. The both of you are still connected and are still working together. So ask at night before you sleep to have visions of the two of you. Be able to talk and know going forward what you want to create. It is very possible to have this communication. It is a very strong communication.
And so we would say to Len-Am and Mu-Am, have a wonderful lifetime, whichever way you choose to use it. In this reality, you will both learn from it.

Do I Have Hybrid Children?
In this post an anonymous reader asks The Council about hybrid children.
Anonymous: Hi. I’m enjoying the part of my job where I get to go on long rides, listen to interesting podcasts, and observe information. That is what I’m doing today and it inspires me to move towards the things I love most in hopes of transitioning to a life led by passion, especially in terms of a career.
So today I’ve been listening to various interviews and my question is about hybrid children. I was visited while young, and I’m wondering if I have hybrid children?
Council: Some people think of hybrid children as an alien or a spirit that comes and has a child with an Earth-form person. Others think hybrid children are children from other dimensions, or from other galaxies. And so we would say here, you have come from other galaxies, many, many lifetimes of traveling around, and you are still in human form now. And so, if you believe your connection to other lives in other galaxies, or in other life forms makes you hybrid, then yes, it does.
But we see you as spirit that’s gone from lifetime to lifetime and traveled the many, many galaxies, millions and millions of stars and planets that we know, in your human form, we know nothing about. And so, yes, you are human, and yes, you are part of many, many other lifetimes in many other dimensions.
Bob: When Anonymous says, “I was visited while young,” I’m imagining she’s talking about being visited by an alien.
Council: Yes, we see that.
Bob: When she says, “I’m wondering if I have hybrid children,” I’m imagining that she’s asking…
Council: First, let us say that many people, many human forms, are visited by other life forms, but they are then going through a process where they forget it. Some do remember, and again, it makes you part of many, many other life forms. And so, yes, you’ve had a visitation more than once.
Bob: And when she asks, “I’m wondering if I have hybrid children,” I’m imagining that she’s asking if she had physical children with the aliens who visited her.
Council: Not in this particular lifetime.
Anonymous: What are the nurseries like?
Bob: I’m not exactly sure what she means by that.
Council: Some – what you would refer to as nurseries – are communities where all the children are raised together. The babies are raised together, not with just one (what you would consider) mother and father. There are some communities where a mother and father role is taken on, and a certain amount of children (maybe between 5 and 10) are allocated to them. There are different ways that different realities raise their children. There are some realities where children are born, but are not yet in complete solid form. They are just spirit. And so they are in lit rooms with certain temperatures until they form on their own their (what you would call) physical body. And so there are different nurseries in different realities and in different dimensions.
Bob: And that would include nurseries for hybrid children.
Council: Yes.
Anonymous: And if I can meet them or communicate with them.
Council: You have already been communicating with them on what you would call an unconscious level. We would say to meditate. That’s always the first step. Put yourself outdoors in the evenings to talk in your mind with whatever form you decide you want to communicate with. And then just have the patience to wait, and do that, and you will have your meeting, your ability to see and feel another life form. So for you, this should be easy.
Bob: I get the impression that Anonymous is asking if they can meet or communicate with her hybrid children, and you’re suggesting that in this particular physical lifetime, she doesn’t have any hybrid children?
Council: Not in this lifetime, but she can communicate with children from other lifetimes in other dimensions. And so with the intention, and putting yourself in the right environment, this can be accomplished.
Anonymous: My daughter, who is here being a human with me now, has a lot of extraterrestrial connections, and we are curious about all of this, as well as our direction in life embracing expansion.
Council: Right now your direction for you and your daughter is to experience life here in this dimension and in this reality, to learn that you can create with your very powerful minds, and to communicate with people here on the level that they are at in this human form, and in this reality. So it’s about meeting people and learning from them their behaviors, their stresses, and their loves. Learn about it. Talk to them about it. And then eventually, when you go back into spirit form or come again, you’ll be able to share the knowledge that you get.
Bob: So it sounds like you’re suggesting that Anonymous be more focused on aspects of her physical reality.
Council: Exactly.

How Can I Learn To Channel And Talk To Spirits?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Leah.
Leah: Hi, I have a question for Cynthia. I want to learn how to channel…
Council: (Laughs) Should we step out of the way? And so because we are part of Cynthia, we would like to hear the question, and we will have an answer.
Leah: …and talk to spirits. How can I start easing myself into this, and what are the initial steps or process?
Council: The first thing is you must learn to sit still. You must learn to meditate. Whether it’s having a picture in your mind that makes you feel good, whether it’s sitting there and saying over and over, “I am at peace,” and just see what shows up behind your eyelids. Eventually you’ll begin to get pictures. You’ll get ideas. But the discipline is to have the strength to sit quietly every day. They always say it’s best to sit at the same time so your body gets used to this, but we would advise any time you have free time for at least ten minutes to sit and meditate, to take it no matter what time of the day it is.
We can tell you that when Cynthia tried to learn to meditate, it took her three years to learn how to do it, and it was the discipline. When spirit sees the discipline, from our side we try very hard to come through to you. You have the discipline to sit and speak to us with your eyes closed if you like, and just as if we are already there, which of course we are, and have a conversation with us.
Sit quietly. Sooner or later with this discipline you will get an idea. You will hear words in your head, and you will feel a feeling of lightness in your body where the chakras are now open and bringing in the energy for you to let the spirit energy, which is very high, come into the body. So we would say, have the quiet time. Sit at a computer and type a question. “Hey spirit, are you there? Let me know.” See what happens. You may hear a word that makes no sense. “Peanut.” All right, spirit, I heard the word, peanut. Tell me more. And every day keep asking. Keep asking, and expect that answer to come, and it will.
So when you begin to meditate, the body begins to let in a higher energy. It’s good to work on the chakras. But once that happens, you will connect in your own way to spirit. You can hear words in your head. You might see pictures instead of words. You may have what we call the great knowing, where all of a sudden you have this information about something and you know the whole thing. It’s not sentence by sentence. You just know.
And you can write a question on your computer, or with a pad and pencil. And you do not need someone there to give you the answer. Write it down. Type it in the computer. And meditate, and the answer will come. You will write down an answer or type an answer, and keep doing it, whether it makes sense or not. It can be gibberish, but sooner or later it will become clear, one word at a time, one image at a time. And that is how you’ll connect with spirits. That’s when you’ll begin to channel – when you know and have the feeling, and you believe it’s there. That’s when you’ll begin to channel.
Leah: I’m alone and don’t have anyone to ask me questions, like Bob.
Council: It’s not necessary.
Leah: How can I start to talk back and forth with my spirit guides?
Council: Meditate. Think in your head, ask a question in your head, and sit, and wait. Next day try again, and again, and again. Write it down. Try writing. Try typing a question. Just keep doing it, knowing you are opening a path to connect with your spirits. When you have the discipline to do this daily, it will come. We promise you, it will come. And so we send you love, and we send everyone happy feelings. Enjoy the day. Enjoy your life. Be grateful. Be happy. Think of things you’ve done that brought you joy. Imagine things you can do that bring you joy, and then move forward.

Do Reptilians and Greys Incarnate As Ordinary People?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Bluestar Child.
Bluestar Child: Hi. I’ve read a lot about the New Age and I’ve been wondering for a long time if there are beings like the Reptilians and the Greys, etc. incarnated as human beings?
Council: They take on the form of a human being to blend in with our reality. These Greys or Reptilians are in that form, but coming here to learn and fulfill their purposes. They have the ability to show themselves as a human from this reality, to look like a regular person, and to blend in.
And so they are here to follow our rules, to learn more about us, and to teach us. And yes, when they come in, they are still the Greys, as you call them, or Archileans, or whatever name you like to give them. But they are from another dimension, they are from another system, but they are here for their reasons and will perform and look like a regular human.
Bob: Is it possible to estimate the percentage of human beings that have Reptilian or Grey ancestry?
Council: The percentage changes all the time, and so that is not what’s of importance. What is of importance is how do you know when you’re in their presence? How do you respond? Do you teach this entity with respect? With kindness? So they would learn that from us, and they will learn from our behavior how we are, how to be, and how not to be. So as they will teach us in ways that will advance us, we teach them.
Bluestar Child: I’m not referring only to groups like the Elite or the Illuminati, etc., but to ordinary human beings. I’m referring to your butcher, your baker, your friends, your partner, and your family.
Council: Exactly. The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker, the grocery man, the person who makes hamburgers, or someone who waits on you in a store. They will perform, and arrive, and take the position they look for in any position that would help them, and help us. And so, yes, they are in government. Yes, they are in law enforcement. Yes, they are in banking and all the important careers. They are everywhere that we can think, and yet you would never know it.
Bluestar Child: If these Reptilians and Greys incarnate as human beings, I’d like to know:
- If these beings have a soul, or not.
Council: Yes, they have a soul. Everything that’s alive has a soul on whatever level they are at, but there’s a soul in everything that lives.
Bluestar Child: That is, if they have a connection with the Source.
Council: Everything has a connection with the Source. The Source creates all. It creates what we need at the time, what is asked for, what you ask for, and what groups ask for. The Source creates what is needed. If it’s here, it’s part of Source.
Bluestar Child: If they are the so-called integrated psychopaths and narcissists, or if all human beings are beings of light with a connection to the Source, and are simply fulfilling their life contract of playing the role of “bad people”.
Council: They are all connected to Source. They are all of the light. How they perform when they are here, whether it’s what we look at as good, or bad, or evil, is part of what they also want to learn, what they want to show us, and what we call into our reality. Everything is part of Source.
It’s by choice, the form we take. It’s by choice what our characters are. It’s by choice what we want to express. It’s by choice what we want to learn.
Bluestar Child: 2. If there’s a way to realize that someone is one of these beings, is it to look into their eyes, because it’s said that the eyes are the mirror of the soul?
Council: If you feel you can tell by looking into their eyes, then look. But we would say more than look into the eyes, feel their presence. Feel how they are around you. See how you feel when you are around them. Feelings will tell you more than just looking into the eyes. People can look you straight in the eye and lie, and smile, and you will agree to accept it, or not. You cannot fool how they feel. You will know. Feeling is more important.
And so we would say when you are around certain people, how does it feel? Even if they smile at you, how does it feel? Is there something bothering you in your gut? Or do you feel elated and wonderful around this person? Learn first with the sense of feeling. And that is for relationships, careers, or anything you want to develop. Go with the feeling, and be open.
Bluestar Child: 3. If you discover such a being in your life, what should you do? Protect yourself by raising your vibration?
Council: You don’t know if you need to protect yourself. If someone is here in the form of a grocery store owner and he is here for his or her purpose, you don’t have to protect yourself from that, but allow them to be, and see how you are around that person.
So the best thing, not only with different entities, but with everybody, is for you to raise your vibration. Every day try to raise your vibration. How do you do this? You do this by feeling good, by thinking wonderful, happy thoughts, by being grateful, and by remembering things that make you smile. That will raise your vibration. Helping others will raise your vibration. Tuning into the feeling of love will raise your vibration. Knowing that you are a spirit and you are connected to the Source will raise your vibration. And knowing that you want to do good while you are here will raise your vibration. Just that thought.
Bluestar Child: Or accept them and integrate their existence normally, as the yin/yang duality within the Source in the third dimension?
Council: It’s a wonderful experience for the other entity and for yourself. And we are here to accept people and to allow them to be who they are. You don’t know their journey, their lessons, your lessons, what they want to experience, so just allow them to be.
If there was something to fear, again we say go with your feelings. You’ll know more by feeling. If there’s an uneasy feeling, if there’s a tightness in your stomach, something is telling you this may not be a good place to be right now. So again, follow your feelings.
Bluestar Child: I’d appreciate it if The Council could shed some light on these suspicions that have been roaming around in my head for some time because I feel confused about the nature of the reality in which we live. Sorry for my long email. Thank you for all the work and wisdom. Greetings.
Council: The reality in which you live is much larger than you know at this time. There are forms in your reality that are right next to you that you cannot see, but sometimes you will get a feeling like, “Oh, it felt like somebody was right near me. It felt like someone touched me.” There is so much going on.
There are entities from different places in our solar system and beyond that. And so just go through life acknowledging there are other beings here. There are other forms of life that we know of right now. And yet you are safe. How do you feel? How do you go about your day? Are you putting out love? Are you putting out compassion? Are you putting out service and helpfulness?
And as you do more and more of that, these other forms will learn from that. So that’s a way you’re teaching them to be better than they are. Or maybe they know so much more, and they can be so much nicer and loving than you are, that you will learn from them. So just accept. And that is just the tip of the iceberg.

Do I Have A Soul Contract To Have A Relationship With A Man I Met 5 Years Ago?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Capricorn.
Capricorn: Hi, Cynthia, Bob, and The Council. I was wondering if you could possibly help me with a query I’ve been struggling with. Thank you for what you do on this blog, by the way.
There’s a man I briefly met in higher education about five years ago. I’m inexplicably drawn to him. We barely spoke. We were more like friendly acquaintances, but as far as I know, there was a mutual physical attraction.
Council: And this was something that you agreed upon, and this was the time you decided to call that spirit into your life.
Capricorn: I haven’t seen him in years, so I initially forgot about him. But at the beginning of this year, he popped into my head out of the blue and I started thinking about him again. I can’t figure out why I’m so drawn to him when we barely spoke. I do find him attractive, but there are many physically and mentally attractive people around. And we were only acquaintances, so it should be relatively easy to forget him.
Council: And it looks like you called this person into your life when you are either bored, or in need of affection and attention. And that is what we see is going on now. And yes, you’ve had many lives with this person.
Is there anything that was planned to get together in this lifetime? We don’t see that, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t create it. You can create whatever it is that you want.
And so we would say, look at it, and before you begin to create more, what is it that you need with this person? What is lacking that you are looking for? You will find answers, and then you will decide whether you wish to put in the energy, a lot of energy, a lot of visualization, and a lot of feelings into creating this.
Capricorn: Could you please help me figure out if that’s all there is to this crush of mine?
Council: At this time we would say, yes. Like we have said before, there was nothing planned to have more. And once again, that doesn’t mean you can’t create it.
Capricorn: Did I sign a particular soul contract with him going into this life, or did I have any past lives with him?
Council: Past lives, yes. Contract? Here we go with the contract again. There was no contract. You had past lives with the agreement of, “Oh, maybe we’ll get together, maybe we’ll be friends, maybe you’ll come into my life at a certain point when I need you.”
And so it works both ways. When you call this into your life, this spirit will not only come for you, but you will have things that are there for the other spirits. So there will be growth and there will be something. But again we see here, we want you to look at this and see why you are bringing it in at this time. What are you looking for?
Capricorn: Or is this purely about physical attraction and my own issues with limerence and nothing more?
Bob: And because ‘limerence’ is something that we weren’t particularly familiar with, we looked it up. And it says: Limerence is a state of mind that describes an intense, obsessive, and involuntary infatuation, or romantic desire for another person, and is based on the uncertainty that the other person also desires you.
Council: It’s part of your issues. It’s part of a desire. And so again we say, think for a long time about this. And if you do bring this in, what kind of life do you see for yourself? What is going on?
And that is why you’re bringing this around at this time. You are looking for this to fill a feeling that is important for you to feel for yourself – a feeling of love for yourself, a feeling of knowing who you are, and a feeling of learning how powerful you are.
It could be that you want to create this relationship to see how powerful you are. And all of this is fine. It’s your reality to choose, and do what you wish.
Capricorn: We seem to be quite similar in some ways, and have interests in common, so intuitively I felt there might be something there, but I can’t explain any of it. Also, can I manifest a relationship with him if I decide to do that, or would that be impinging on his free will?
Council: You would not interfere with his free will. There would be an acceptance that person would feel, and that would be created. And then in another reality, if this person didn’t want to be with you, there would be a second reality where you are not together. And so there is no way you can change his free will, or the free will of anyone that you’d like to call into your life.
And so, enjoy your creations and learn from what we teach. There’s always a way it will help you. And just asking the questions shows that you are on another path to expand, to learn how to create, to look at yourself, to show kindness, and to bring in the happiness that we all want. And so we say, have fun with this.

Did I Pre-Plan For Any Spirits To Be My Spouse Or Children?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, RA_Reader.
RA_Reader: Dear Cynthia, Bob, and The Council, I so appreciate your work. I was wondering if I planned meetings or contracts with a spouse and children for this lifetime, and anything else I might need to know with respect to this topic, such as timing and opportunity. Thanks so much.
Council: We love how so many of you are so hung up on these contracts, and you have to do something because you signed a contract, and if you don’t live up to that contract, you will be turned into a cinder block.
But we would say here, there’s no particular person or spirit that you wanted to meet in your current lifetime. There are many spirits that you agreed to have in your life, and you have all agreed to come together.
And so you are one of the many who wanted the freedom to create as you go along. Yes, you can have children. That was in your thoughts. You can have a marriage. You can also travel a lot. That was something that was wanted. But there were no spirits that you have to meet that are going to be your children, and no partner with a spiritual contract.
It’s just that so many of you got together and said, “Okay, let’s play along, and we’ll show up at a certain time. Let’s see what we can do with it.” And it was the freedom which is wanted more and more in this particular lifetime. The freedom to create as you go along. And when you find the person, you will know it. And the trials could be easy, or they could be difficult, but you will know it, and you will always grow from it. And you will experience what you focus on.
And so enjoy your creations. Learn from what we teach. There’s always a way it will help you. And just asking the questions is showing that you are on another path to expand, to learn how to create, to look at yourself, to show kindness, and to bring in the happiness that we all want. And so we say, have fun with this.

Why Am I So Attached To The Person On My Mind?
This post answers questions for The Council from an anonymous reader about a person who’s on their mind.
Anonymous: Please help me understand why I’m so attached to the person on my mind. I have many theories, but I’m at the point where I need a definitive answer from Spirit. I hope that this is meant to be, and The Council can help me.
Council: We hope that if this is what you want, you know what to do about it. You are already doing the work in your mind to see it and experience it the way you want it to be, but we see here with this particular person, there are many, many lives together. The most important is in an orphanage in the early 1800s where you both lived. We find, for some reason, spirits that go through living together in an orphanage, that live a life of being abandoned and alone, seem to bond together, and they love coming back – they just love it.
There was also a life – just for fun we’ll tell you – when the Emperor Tiberius was alive and you were Roman soldiers in the Pretorian guard. We see in this life you were together again, both males, wanting to be in direct contact with the Emporer. That was wanted and worked for.
We see another life as farmers in Ireland, working the crops and taking care of the animals.
And so there were a lot of times coming together, and just having fun, and learning other things along the way. So again, in this lifetime there was no real commitment for you and this person to go into a loving relationship. And so if you’re enjoying this, then take hold of it and create it now the way you want it. But yes, this person on your mind, you share many, many lifetimes.
So you are in a good place that you recognize it and that there’s a familiar feeling. Right there should tell you, so now you don’t just handle it, as in let’s see what happens, or I’ll go with it, or maybe I’ll try to make it happen. Yes, you can reach out and try to make it happen, but first do the inner work with the imagery, the thoughts, and the feelings, and then you’ll create it the way you want it to be.
And so we send you blessings, and happiness, and light, beautiful energy to carry you through your days, and to meditate, and pray, or have a few moments a day to have happy thoughts. And move forward in your life knowing every single thing that you are experiencing, you have brought into this reality to be of service, to learn from it, and to bring healing and love into your reality.

Help Me Understand Why My Efforts Amount To Nothing
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Desperate.
Desperate: I try to be a good person and to imagine good things for myself, but somehow I’ve ended up in relationships with narcissistic men and dead-end jobs.
Council: So it’s good that you realize this, you see this, but then ask yourself, what have you learned in these relationships? How would you do it differently?
And then it’s most important to start writing down, or thinking over and over, and visualizing the kind of relationship that you do want.
Desperate: I always imagine myself as a mother with kids and a large family, and I’m 43 years old, I’m alone, and I’m not fertile. I did everything I could. I pursued relationships, studied, and graduated, but somehow none of my efforts bears fruit. Could you please help me understand better my current situation?
Council: You had one particular lifetime – you had about 10 children – and that one was difficult, but you were very happy and your family was very happy. So you come in and you want to do it again, but another part of you wants the freedom to explore other things in your life.
So we say here, are you happy with your environment? Do you imagine you living somewhere else? And can you follow through about different places, read up about them, and get maps of different areas? When you do this, you open yourself up to a different way of life, to more independence, but you find more people that you’d want to build relationships with.
You will find a partner. And so, working together with this partner it could – if this person wants to explore it – have something to do with children, which is something you both spoke about when you were in spirit.
So again, for right now, just begin to think of what you want? But do more of the work. Do the chakra breathing. The chakras have to be aligned so you can bring in what you want. And when you write it down, it makes the image deeper in your conscious mind.
So be specific. Go into great detail about what it is that you want. And as you do this, you bring that in closer and closer to you. So we would say to do this at this particular time. But first of all, do the chakra breathing.
Bob: Desperate asks if her current situation related to past lives, which you’ve touched on. Is there anything else you want to say about the relationship of past lives to the current situation?
Council: There is a lot of movement that you want. You thought you would move around a lot in this particular lifetime. But we see if you concentrate now, a very important move will come along that will change your whole style of how you live, where you live, and who you live with. And so this next particular move should allow you to bring in with you and others what you have planned in spirit.
Desperate: How can I change course?
Council: You do the chakra breathing, you can collect pictures of places you’d like to visit, you can collect pictures of families standing in front of houses, and everything else that you want. We believe if you look at these pictures and if you imagine what you see – that you are in the picture – or you have something similar, that strong image will start to bring it into you.
Desperate: Thank you in advance, and thank you for the wonderful work you do. Sincerely, Desperate.
Council: It’s all up to you at this point. Do the work. You don’t have to know how it will happen, but do it and you will see the change. But first of all, do the chakra breathing.
We wish all of you great happiness on your journey. You’ve all created this, and you all wanted to learn so much from what you have created. And with that we would say, have fun with it.

What Past Lives Do I Need To Know About?
This post answers questions for The Council from an anonymous reader about past lives.
Anonymous: Are there any past lives that I need to know about? I feel like I’m getting feelings about new people I’ve met. Maybe it’s a lot of healing and transmutation, but it’s all new to me.
Council: So we would say at this time it’s no particular life that you need to know about. All of your past lives affect you. There are different things that you call in and are needed at this time that want to be repeated or healed.
But the part that you say is, you’re getting a lot of feelings about new people. These are to help you grow. These people, there are some that will stay in your life forever in this lifetime with you, but it’s to make you question and learn more about why do they feel familiar. What is going on? So that will open you up to past lives. It will open you up to the idea that you are spirit.
Anonymous: We’d love to suggest to you to read any of the books by Brian Weiss. One particular one, Only Love Is Real, by Brian Weiss, is the perfect beginner book, and it will sort of keep you on the edge of your seat towards the end. But read his books, then perhaps listen to tapes, then go to a workshop that he does, if it’s possible. That’s going to open you up to knowing who you are. And he does this so that people no longer fear death, because you find out you go on and on. There is no ending. There’s just going from one life to another.
So when you feel close to new people, keep the friendships. See what you can find out about them, where they came from, where they grew up, what they like. And it’s going to set off little ideas in your head about you, and that’s what this is all about. So you’re at the part where you’re ready to learn and bring forth intuition, and new ways of dealing with people and learning about them on a much deeper level.
And so we wish all of you great happiness on your journey. You’ve all created this, and you all wanted to learn so much from what you have created. And we would say with that, have fun with it.

What Can You Tell Me About The Concept Of A Soul Blueprint?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Kratika.
Kratika: I wish to know from The Council about the concept of soul blueprint. It’s pretty much the same case as that of the soul contracts – that the soul planned for certain events and a theme in this lifetime to be navigated.
Council: It’s very interesting. Soul blueprint. Soul contract. Everything, no matter how you name it, can be changed to what you want.
Kratika: This particular theme is very much in your astrological birth chart. For instance, my birth chart has a theme of death of ego, rebirth, and transformation.
Council: We’d like to say here that many people follow horoscopes, astrological charts, numerology, etc. You have created this to be important in your life. You have created to be aware of it, but many people never follow any of this and create the life they want.
Sometimes you create it to show you you’re following what’s in your chart. And then people begin to think, “Oh well, that’s it for this life. It’s in my chart. I’m done.” And we’d like to say here that is not true. It’s just there to give you an idea of something you are creating, not because it’s in your chart, but because it’s in your subconscious. It’s what you’re thinking.
You can think you can be very successful and it will happen. You can think you will be without a relationship, that you would fail in many parts of your life, and you would find it in your chart until you realize because this is part of you that wants to grow, it wants you to see it’s in your chart, but you can change it. It’s there in your chart for you to learn from it. It has no bearing unless you believe in it.
But some people will look at their chart and laugh and say, “Oh my God. I’m nothing like that.” Of course you’re not. You are the way that you focus. You are the way that you think. Do you live in fear? Do you live in love? Are you successful? Are you more inclined to positive thoughts?
And so when your life – and this is many people – when your life isn’t working right you have to find out why, so you blame an astrological chart. It’s just there to point it out to you because it means something to you. But in reality, you are the only one who is creating what is happening.
Think of how many people never read a horoscope, or never look at their astrological charts, but they’re creating all over the place, whether it’s good experiences or bad experiences. You don’t need to focus on your chart unless you see what’s in your chart that you don’t like. And you become very strong-willed and say, “That’s ridiculous. I’ll change this.” Then it has taught you something. And when you change it, you will begin to understand how powerful you are.
Kratika: I have a heavy Saturn placement in my birth chart…
Council: Yes. So. (Laughs)
Kratika: …which speaks of restrictions and limitations. The ego death and transformation have been happening to me for years.
Council: Because you believe in these restrictions. No one restricts you or anything in your life except you.
Kratika: Now I am really exhausted. I also feel that I have just made spiritual progress, but nothing seems to happen in the material world.
Council: Because you are in charge. And perhaps now you will listen, maybe, to what we have said, and you will realize, “I have to get on top of this. I have to change my thinking.”
Anyone who is having a bad time in life and thinks, “Oh my God. I’m done for. Look at this chart. Saturn has this, and the Moon has that. That’s what you are supposed to learn. It has no bearing. You are not done for in this lifetime unless you believe that.
So now that you know you are a spirit that is very powerful, change your thoughts. Forget. Let go of the astrological chart. Now focus on what you want, and do it happily. Do it with excitement that, “Oh, now I know. Now I can change it. This is wonderful.” When you begin to believe like that, your life must change.
Kratika: I really don’t understand why my soul would choose this kind of experience because it has made me so dull and numb.
Council: Up until now, yes, you chose it to learn from it, to learn that you are in control.
Kratika: I feel too old for my age now. Also, what about one’s astrological blueprint?
Council: Same thing.
Kratika: How can you manifest joy and abundance in your life when those planets in your chart create so many hindrances?
Council: Because you can. It’s there to show you things aren’t so good. You know you’re going to have a difficult time until you get to the point where nobody else can go through what you go through. No one else can create for you in your life. It doesn’t matter where the planets are. You chose to see that, to bring that into your life, to realize it doesn’t matter what your chart says. “I am in control.”
And that’s one of the main purposes of all who are in this reality now. To learn about spirit. To learn to bring love in, and also to yourself. To learn you are in control. And that is why many people go through difficult times. To see it, experience it, and perhaps get angry enough, or strong enough and say, “Enough. I will think of the good things. I will think and feel the way I want it.” And do the visualization, and then you will change. And then you will have accomplished one of the things you came here for.
A wonderful question. It shows that you are now ready to begin the change that you wanted to experience. We are very happy for you.
Blessings to everyone. And we see you all growing in leaps and bounds right now. And you will learn from your thoughts. You will learn from what you see going on in your life. You will learn from your planet. And what is going on? Just watch what is going on in your life, and you will know what you are creating.

I Have Pre-Birth Memories Concerning Blood Type
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Om3ga.
Om3ga: I have pre-birth memories about planning my life, choosing my parents, etc.
Council: Yes. Many people are remembering that now.
Om3ga: One of my memories is discussing compatibility with my chosen body, specifically about blood type.
Council: We do choose our bodies – if we want to be tall, if we want to be short, if we want blue eyes, if we want brown eyes, if we want long hair. We choose many of the things we want to experience. We also choose if we’ll be a sickly person, and if we’ll perhaps conquer a disease. We’ll have some part of our body – our knees, our back – that hurt. We do have the ability to choose all of this, and there is always a reason behind it, and you’ll not usually remember the reason. But again, if you do not like what you are experiencing, you can change it.
Om3ga: Is compatibility with blood type because different blood types have different frequencies, and depending on the spirit, some blood types may be more compatible?
Council: The blood type does not have a certain frequency. The whole body has a frequency, and this frequency comes from your thoughts. If you are living in fear, if you are living in negative thoughts, your frequency will be low. If you are positive, and you experience joy, and you celebrate your life, you’re walking around in a very high frequency.
So we can not say your frequency is up to your blood type unless, of course, you believe this. If you believe this, you’re going to make it that way. But the whole body – how it operates and what it thinks – is in control of the frequency, not the blood type.
Bob: Can you address the idea of compatibility of blood types?
Council: We do not see where it’s a real compatibility. Before you come into this life, if you create that you’d like to have someone with the same blood type – it would make you feel safer, it would make you feel good – then yes, you’ll create a life where that is important. But the blood type is not important unless you want to have a blood type that affects you, makes you a weaker person, or can bring in diseases if you set it up that way.
But it will all come from your thoughts. Your thoughts create your whole body, your whole life, and how you experience it. But if it makes you feel good, for whatever reason, then we’d say go with it. Find someone with the same blood type. If you’re going to have a child and you need to experience this child as having some sort of disability, then you’d set it up so the doctors would know when you are pregnant, or after the child is born, that this child has a disability because of this blood type. It depends on how you set it up.
Normally in spirit, we don’t concentrate on blood types, but yet there are many people that do. For whatever reason, they want to experience something. They want to learn from it.
So it is very interesting, and before you go to sleep at night, you can ask to remember parts of your life in spirit. What do you think you set up? And you will eventually have a dream, or a sign, or something because we will always answer what you need to know. And as we say now, more and more people are remembering. And more and more people are feeling certain ways, and saying the famous saying right now: “I feel this way. I don’t know why.” Well, “I don’t know why,” means you’re starting to remember or get in touch with what you were setting up in spirit.
So look for these clues. And again, you’re at a good point in your life to explore further than what you have experienced.
Blessings to everyone. And we see you all growing in leaps and bounds right now. And you will learn from your thoughts. You will learn from what you see going on in your life. You will learn from your planet. And what is going on? Just watch what is going on in your life and you will know what you are creating.

Should Child Molestation Be Allowed?
This post answers a question for The Council from an anonymous reader after they read our post, I Feel Like Women Should Not Tolerate Or Allow Sexism.
Anonymous: If a person enjoyed molesting children and you could see that the child was hurt by this, then should you allow them to be the way they are and simply step away and acknowledge that you are different?
Council: What you would do here is take your focus off of the molester and put it on the child, or anyone that is being hurt.
As we have said before, we are here to help one another. So you would not try to change the molester. You would absolutely let that be and let the law, or maybe the parents of the child step in and do whatever is on their path.
You, as a spirit and a human in this reality, are to help the child, the victim. And so you would do what feels right to you. You would talk to the child and perhaps tell the parents what is going on. But you would not focus on the perpetrator of the crime. You are here to help anyone who is hurting in any situation. That is your purpose.
Blessings to everyone, and we see you all growing in leaps and bounds right now. And you will learn from your thoughts. You will learn from what you see going on in your life. You will learn from your planet. And what is going on? Just watch what is going on in your life and you will know what you are creating.

Welcome
Bob & Cynthia
Welcome to Ask The Council, a blog where you can ask a group of loving and wise spirit guides a question and get an answer, for free. You can also contact us for a paid private phone session with The Council, and you can read the questions other readers have asked and the answers they’ve received. Other posts contain quotations from The Council that we hope you find inspiring, uplifting, and educational.
Ask The Council a Question
If there’s a question you’ve been thinking about and you’re curious how The Council might answer it, we encourage you to either use the blog’s Comments feature to ask your question, or contact us for a private phone session. You can click here to go to the ‘Let us know what you think about this post, or ask The Council a question’ section of this Welcome post and type your question there or you can type your question in the same section at the bottom of any post that inspires you to ask a question or leave a comment.
Since the blog is currently a project we do in our spare time it can take a while for us to do a session with The Council on a question and then publish a post on the session. Depending on the question and the session it can sometimes take weeks after a question is asked to publish a post with The Council’s answer. Please be patient.
The Council
Cynthia is able to communicate with a group of five non-physical spirit guides in a manner similar to the way Esther Hicks communicates with and speaks for the spirit guides, Abraham, and Jane Roberts communicated and spoke for the spirit guide, Seth. I (Bob) basically interview The Council as they speak through Cynthia during what we refer to as a session. Sessions generally last 5-15 minutes and are usually audio recorded. During the session Cynthia is aware of what The Council is saying and she also receives visual impressions and other types of telepathic communication from them.
The Council’s Basic Guidance
Since we began these sessions with The Council around 2009 they consistently emphasize a few basic ideas that we attempt to summarize here:
1) You are an eternal spiritual being in a physical body.
You are the energy and vibration of continuously expanding love, intelligence, and joy.
Your physical experience in your physical body and your psychological experience of your personality is a small part of the totality of who you truly are.
Let yourself imagine from time to time what it might feel like to experience more of the wondrous totality of who you really are, and don’t be surprised if you are able to experience this more often.
2) You are the creator of all that you experience.
As you open to the possibility your true nature is greater than you ordinarily perceive, it becomes easier to consider the possibility that this expanded you is truly the creator of everything that you experience.
If you’re used to thinking of yourself in a more limited sense, the idea that you are the creator of your experience may be difficult to understand. Our post, What About This Idea That We Create Whatever We Desire, offers insights into this idea.
3) You are here to expand the love you are into physical reality.
You chose, as a spiritual being, to come into this physical reality to experience the joy of expanding the love you are as a spiritual being, into this physical reality. This is your purpose for being here.
Finding Your Way Around the Blog
Home Page
The left-hand column on the Home page contain a long chronological series of posts with the most recent on top. Each post begins with a title. Clicking on a post title will take you to a blog page dedicated to that particular post. Following each post is a Like button where you can indicate to us and other readers if you like the post.
The footer section of each post identifies the date the post was published, the Categories the post has been assigned to, the keyword/keyphrase Tags assigned to the post, and a Comment link. If readers comments on a post, the Comments link will indicate the number of comments. If a post has no comments yet, the Comment link text appears as “Leave a Comment”.
Clicking on the Comments link takes you to a Comment text box on a post page dedicated to that post. Here you can type a comment in the text box and click the Post Comment button to have your comment displayed just below the text box. If you are replying to someone else’s comment, your comment will appear indented underneath the comment you are replying to.
At the bottom of the left column on the Home page is a ‘Previous Entries’ link that will take you to a page with a list of earlier posts.
Blog Features
The right-hand column of most blog pages contains this Welcome message. Below the Welcome message in the right-hand column are some useful features:
Email Subscription: Use this to subscribe to blog posts. You will receive an email notification with a link back to the blog each time a new post is published.
Search: Type a keyword or phrase and click the Search button to get a list of posts in the left column that contain the keyword or phrase.
Archives: The Archives list indicates the number of posts for each month listed. Clicking on the link for a month will display in the left column of the page a list of the posts published that month.
Categories: This is a list of keywords used to categorize posts. Posts can be included in more than one category, if applicable. Clicking on a category link will display in the left column a list of posts assigned to the category you selected.
Navigation Bar
The Navigation Bar at the top of each page contains a link to the blog Home page and links to the following additional pages:
Welcome: A link that displays this Welcome message in the left column (and the right column). At the bottom of the Welcome message is a Comment box where you can post a general comment about the blog or ask The Council a question.
Questions & Answers: Use this link to display a list of introductions to our longer posts, most of which are responses to reader questions. This is an easy way to check out these more in-depth posts. They are listed in chronological order with the most recent post on top. Clicking on the post title will take you to the page where you can read the complete post.
Contact Us: The Contact Us page contains a contact form similar to the Comment form mentioned above. The difference between the Contact Us form and the Comment forms is that the Contact Us form is a private message to us (Cynthia and Bob). It is not posted on the blog. Comments appear on the post page where the comment is posted. The Contact Us form can be used for communicating with us about private sessions or other private matters you think aren’t appropriate for posting in a public Comment.
