What Past Lives Will Help Me with My Health & Income Struggles?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Rob, who asks which of his past lifetimes will help him succeed in his current life and deal with his income and health struggles.
The Council says three main past lives that come up right away, which means you are dealing with them on some level, are about health. In a lifetime during the plague you were a physician. You went around trying to help people, but you weren’t very successful because a lot of people weren’t allowed to come out of their homes, and this disturbed you.
In an American Indian lifeme you were a medicine man who was able to connect with the elements and heal people in your tribe. You believed everyone was able to heal themselves and you tried to teach that. More and more you wanted for everyone to be able to heal themselves.
During the Revolutionary War you were a physician again. You worked on the soldiers, many of whom you were unable to save. In these three lives you were concerned with health, helping people, and trying to get people to understand they were able to do things to help themselves. You were very interested in having people connect with their thoughts and seeing themselves healing.
In your current life you’ve created to a lesser extent than your past lives, some problems with health. You want to be able to heal yourself with the power of your mind, and some help from physicians when necessary. You wanted to read and learn about healing yourself.
We suggest you meditate. Read any and all books you can find on energy healing. Learn to heal your chakras and do the chakra breathing on a weekly basis. Try to work with positive visualization as well as what you learn from the energy healing.
There was a lifetime where you had a business with your brother. That life didn’t so much affect your current life, but you wanted to turn that life around. Your brother wanted to run your business one way and you wanted to run it another. A lot of the things you did in this business lost money for you and your brother.
In your current life you wanted to come in and have some sort of business. Something you could work and run yourself and see it succeed. In your meditations we ask you to concentrate on these lives and see what else you can remember. See what you can think about and use in your current life to help you on your path.
The Council closes by saying that knowing this information will help quite a bit.

What’s the Best Way for Me to Connect with My Spiritually?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Christiana, who wants to know the best ways to connect to her spiritually? The Council says you’re already connected spiritually. Step 1 is to acknowledge that you are a spirit in human form even if you don’t remember it, and you’re always connected. As many times as you can during your day, just stop and think that you are a spirit having a human experience. You’re here by your own choice. See what you’re creating. Have a look around at your life and see what’s going on.
Christiana says, I feel there are many ways to connect with spirit and I want to know which are the ones that are best suited for me? The Council says there are many forms of meditation. There’s just sitting in a chair for five minutes and relaxing. Thinking happy thoughts will always help you feel more connected.
For you to start seriously meditating and feeling a stronger spiritual connection, go out in nature. Walk in the countryside, or down a path in the woods, or on the side of a lake. You’ve done this before in other lifetimes and it will help you to connect to spirit in your current life. The easiest way is to find a tree. A pine tree is best, but any tree will do. Sit on the ground with your back against the tree, close your eyes, and just wait and see what thoughts and images come to you. Do this for a while and feel the tree’s energy.
When you’ve done this for a while we suggest you visualize you are walking down a path and in front of you is a little mountain which you start to walk up. Follow it around and around until you reach the top. When you reach the top, look out and be aware of what you see. Every time you do this you may see something different.
While standing on this hilltop, connect with the Earth, connect with the mountain, with the sky, with the sun, and with the moon. This is a Native American ritual. These people were very attuned to nature. Since you’ve had these lifetimes before, you’ll find it easier to connect again as you practice.
In Native American life it was very important to be part of a tribe and a family. There was a belief in being honest and good with everyone and to support each other. If you can find a way to do that in your current life, you’ll be bringing your past lives into your current life to help you move forward and connect spiritually.
The Native Americans were great worshipers of the elements, of rain, of nature, of lakes, and trees, There was also a belief in one great God.
Many of the Native American tribes knew when it was time for them to pass on. They would sit by themselves under a tree and the others in the tribe would know that this was the time for this person to transition to spirit and they’d leave that person alone. They’d just sit under a tree and will themselves to go back into spirit. There would be dancing and chanting and the tribe would celebrate that another of their kind has gone to be with the great spirit.
It’s good for you to be around birds, hawks, and eagles because you knew how to talk to them in a past life.
Doing these things isn’t a regular sit-down meditation. Being in nature and visualizing will help you feel more connected. More and more this will open up for you and eventually you can connect with spirit guides and spirits that have passed on. This will take practice. We feel that you planned in spirit to take this path and you can achieve it.
Christiana says, I’ve been superficial with regard to connecting to spirit and I’ve also been a bit confused as to how to go about it. When I’m faced with too many options I often choose none of them. I’d like to start somewhere and have something I could practice regularly with confidence.
Christiana continues, Lately I’ve felt an attraction to Native American wisdom and spirituality. Is there a reason for this? The Council repeats that you had several lives among the Native Americans and they were happy lives. They were lives where you grew spiritually and in your community. And you’re calling those lives into your current life.

Help Me Heal My Relationship with My Dead Mother
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, PE, who’s asking for guidance about their relationship with their mother. I’ve asked for guidance on this website before and The Council strongly indicated our relationship was marked by a difficult past life. My mother passed away last year, but I continue to have troubling dreams about her.
The Council says you have the information about sharing a difficult past life and it’s now time to let that go. You can’t change what happened in your past life and how it affected you. Now your job is to deal with what’s going on for you in the present.
PE says, I feel guilty for not speaking to my mother the last few months of her life and for not always being compassionate with her. The Council says there’s no purpose for this guilt. The life you had with your mother was pre-planned in spirit. It was a life you both wanted. You wanted to learn from this life. You wanted to see how you’d handle it. And you wanted to see how you could turn this life around.
There are many times when this is difficult and you run out of time because one of the personalities decides to return to spirit. There’s the guilt you carry because you didn’t fulfill what you were trying to when you planned this life in spirit. Now your purpose is for you to understand your guilt isn’t necessary. You both played your parts in what was needed and you didn’t find the time or the feeling that was needed to speak with her before your mother’s passing.
What you need to understand is that you are both spirits. Where your mother is presently there’s no more anger and there’s no more bad feeling. Your mother is pure spirit and only sends you love. We hope you’re in a place where you can take this love in. There’s no part of your mother that wishes you to suffer. The dreams and the feelings you may be having are all from the guilt you hold within you and there’s no need for that.
PE says, Just when I think I’m making progress with healing my relationship with my mother, even after her death it feels like I’m taking a step backward or I feel stuck. The Council says this is because you go into your old thoughts which bring on old feelings and you begin to go into old patterns and slide backward. You need the discipline to constantly remind yourself you’re both spirits, you both planned this life in spirit, we accomplished what we could, and your mother was ready to move on. Now you’re left with how you want to bring closure for yourself with this relationship.
Of course meditate, but sit quietly and try to see your mother not as she was when she was in this reality in human form, but as a spirit in a beautiful and loving place who’s sending you loving energy to help you through this process. Once you can see her and you can feel you’re both spirits, you can begin to talk to her and tell her how it was for you and how it’s still bothering you. Perhaps you’d like a sign from your mother that all is well. Tell her you’ll accept the loving energy that she’s sending you to get you through your current difficulty.
We ask you if you’re really ready to accept loving energy from a woman who made your life difficult, even though this was planned, and it’ll help you let go of the guilt and move forward. Are you ready to move forward? Are you ready to make peace with your mother? Are you ready to accept the love your mother is sending you? That’s what needs to be worked on at this time.
As everyone grows and develops and learns to create, just take information from your past and don’t stay stuck in those lives. Take all this information and use it to further yourself in the life you’re creating at this time.
We in spirit, as we watch you and see how you grow, we learn from this and also grow. We are all gifts to each other.

What’s the Purpose of My Meeting This Man Online?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Puzzled Aquarius, who met a guy online 11 years ago, had online contact on and off over the 11 years, but they’ve never met in person. The Council says it wasn’t planned in spirit for this reality that the two of you would get together permanently.
The Council says the first past life we’d like to share with you that’s affecting your current relationship takes place in England. You were in a religious order living in a convent. In this life he was a gardener and handyman. You’d speak to each other even though you were cloistered and really shouldn’t have been conversing with this man. There was flirtation going on, and yet you both knew the relationship could go no further.
In that life you built a bond and shared a closeness that you experienced a lot of guilt over this because it was against your religious order. The gardener knew he couldn’t push you in any way to create any sort of a relationship. It was a strong friendship and that’s how it remained in that life.
After that particular life you both planned that you’d like to come back and be close and see where you could take this next life. But what happened was you created a life where you were brothers who were close, but there was also great competition. One was always trying to win over the other, trying to be better, trying to have more than the other. This was to learn how to try and be together without the rules, without anyone saying you can’t do this like they did in England. You picked being brothers and you tried to build a closeness then.
In your current life you thought you’d give a relationship another chance. There were no plans made in spirit to see where this relationship would go. You didn’t know when you’d meet, if you’d meet, or what would happen. In your current reality it was arranged that you’d see day by day what would happen.
There may be a closeness that’s felt, that you want the same things, but we also see in this lifetime there’s part of a subconscious memory of your life in England that keeps this man from taking your relationship further. He likes the connection. He likes when the two of you talk. He likes knowing where you are, but there was no close relationship planned. You agreed to see what happens. You’re going into this relationship again, but is it what you want?
If it’s not what you want, can you let go of it? Like your relationship in England, can you have conversations and meetings every now and then and be satisfied with that? That’s the best you and this man are likely to achieve in this lifetime. That’s what’s going on. Of course you can always try with your thoughts and feelings to make this relationship more if that’s what you want. You can create anything, but you didn’t plan in spirit that it would be more.
Puzzled Aquarius says, I don’t understand why, after so long, we get connected and disconnected and we never seem to meet. What’s the purpose of this. The Council says the purpose is for the both of you to see what you could create. What you’re experiencing is the best of what you’ve created in your current lifetime. That’s all that was wanted. Let’s see what we can do. Now that you’re aware of this, is it enough? Would you like to hang onto this, or would you like to look elsewhere for a permanent relationship?
Puzzled Aquarius says we’re both still single, no children, never married, but we both want these things and we have a deep connection when we chat. The Council says this deep connection is something you also had in the relationship in your lifetime in England.
We’ve video-talked also. It’s like we’ve known each other from so many lifetimes. Did we have a recent past life and is that the reason why we’ve found each other? What were we to each other if we did, and what was the point of this? The Council says these two lives we’ve described to you are what are affecting your present life. The point was to try and get together again and see if you could create more closeness and to see how far you could take a relationship with the freedom to do whatever. Coming and going is part of this freedom. With the understanding of why this relationship is happening, is it wonderful? Would you like to keep this creation, and perhaps create it again in the future?
This man would have difficulty committing to a permanent relationship in this lifetime because he’s not consciously aware the lifetime in England is affecting him, but it is. It’s not only how he acts with you. The subconscious memories from his life in England have him acting the way he does with many other people. He doesn’t have a desire to get closer. There’s a desire to keep his distance, being a friend, but not committing.
Puzzled Aquarius says, I want to meet him, but can you see if this will eventually happen? The Council says where you’d want this, we don’t see him wanting this at this time. And yet he’s the creator and can change at any moment.
This man likes the idea of speaking or writing to people and finding out they also want the same things he wants. This is a closeness he craves, but there’s no intention of going beyond this. He’s interested in finding people who agree with him and what he wants that these other people also want.
We don’t see your relationship with this man going in a permanent direction, but as the creators, as you develop, as you experience and live this life, you can change what you want. A romantic connection is there on some level, but not at the level you’re looking for.
Puzzled Aquarius may be able to find a permanent relationship if she chooses to look somewhere else.
The Council closes by advising us to take information from our past, but don’t stay stuck in those lives. Take all that information and use it to further yourself in the life you’re creating at this time. We in spirit, as we watch you and see how you grow, learn from you and we grow also. We’re all gifts to each other.

How Can I See and Hear My Spirit Guides?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Susan, who says, During Covid I became very spiritual. I now practice meditation on a daily basis and read many books by ascended masters. I’m doing many things to raise my vibration, but I can’t seem to hear or see my guides or masters.
The Council begins by asking Susan to read the book, St. Germain, The Mystery of the Violet Flame, by Elizabeth Clare Prophet. Then they say that many people think as soon as they begin meditating and reading spiritual books, all the guides and masters will come right out in front of you and give you all the answers you want. It doesn’t work that way. It’s the discipline of quietly meditating, asking for peace, and being there when and if your guides decide to appear in your meditations. You can get all your answers from your guides without seeing or hearing them just by things happening that you wish to happen.
If you believe your guides aren’t communicating with you unless you can see and hear them you’ll be very disappointed. When you’re open to the information coming to you in any way that allows you to realize who you really are as a spiritual being and that you’re very much connected to spirit guides, magic begins to happen.
Susans says, I’ve asked many times for my guides and ascended masters to let their presence be known to me. The Council says if you’re so focused on seeing and hearing your guides, and asking why isn’t this happening when your guides could be showing themselves to you and giving you answers. If you’re only focused on seeing them one way, that won’t help this happen. What will help is the meditation on peace and connecting with the spirit you truly are.
Susan says, I’d love to know who my spirit guides are and make contact with them. The Council says when you do the things we’ve recommended your guides will make contact in whatever way is helpful for you to learn and grow. Be open because guidance can come in many different ways. Then the ways the guidance comes to you will advance and grow as you accept the little ways it comes to you in the beginning.
Susan asks, Is there anything The Council can suggest that my guides would want me to do to raise my vibration enough for me to see and hear them? The Council says laughing and playing will raise your vibration. Having good thoughts and doing fun things raises your vibration. If you do that, and in your meditation you ask for peace and love, and at the same time you connect with your heart and send out love to everyone in your reality, your whole life will begin to change for the better and you’ll connect with more of what you’re asking for. It all comes when the student is ready.

Why Would I Choose This Life and How Can I Have Hope?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Mari, who wonders why she’d choose the life she’s living and how she can have hope? Mari says, I had a very unhappy childhood. I’ve been depressed all my life and I discovered I wasn’t able to practice a profession I prepared for because of a cognitive impairment, which could be due to the long-lasting depression. I’m currently working in an unfulfilling job. I’m on medication that isn’t working after trying many. I’m unhappy and feel trapped in my marriage. I don’t have many friends or much support except for mental health professionals. Sometimes life seems like it’s too much. Can you advise what to do? It just seems so hopeless.
The Council says for you, because of your depression and hopeless feeling, we’d suggest reading the three Emmanuel books by Pat Rodegast and Ask And It Is Given, by Esther and Jerry Hicks. This will lighten your vibration a little.
We feel the depression you’re going through can be changed if you learn to do the chakra breathing we recommend in other posts, learn to meditate, and start reading more spiritual books. Do these every day. We feel that in time when you start to understand who you truly are as a spiritual being and what you can create, your depression will lessen and in time you won’t need the medication you’ve been taking. But you must take the step of working on yourself first.
Find thoughts that make you happy, even if you make these thoughts up and they haven’t really happened, but they are thoughts of things you want to happen. This will lighten your vibration and you’ll see, as you feel lighter and lighter, your life will begin to change for the better.
We see what you’ve created is finding another form of employment that would ideally be outside and more with nature, either working on a farm or in a nursery. If that isn’t possible, maybe working in a plant store. Be around nature. For you, walking barefoot in water would help. All of this will change how you feel. It will help your career and your marriage.
What keeps you down is the looking outward. You think the marriage and the job isn’t what you want, but it is what you want. And it will be more of what you want if you work on yourself with your good thoughts, meditation, chakra breathing, and reading the spiritual books. This will begin to turn your life around and turn it into more of what you want.
Listen to the entire 4-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Mari and the rest of us and let us know what you feel about it. Unfortunately the the quality of this recording and the recording in the next post isn’t up to our usual standards. We apologize for this and we hope to avoid this situation in the future.

How Do I Deal with Feelings of Ill Will Towards My Mother?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Ph, who wants to ask about their relationship with their mother. They say, I don’t like her and I guess I fear her because she was abusive and manipulative during my childhood and also later. The Council says when you were in spirit you both agreed on how she would treat you.
Ph says, I feel angry for having to interact with her and I’d prefer to never see her again. At the same time I feel guilty about this and I feel like I should be able to forgive her and have a normal relationship with her. The Council says there’s no purpose in feeling guilty. Your mother’s behavior is something that was planned in spirit and you both played your parts.
Ask yourself, what has this experience done to your thoughts and your feelings? If you cut off communication with your mother and if you choose to never see her again, will you feel that there’s no closure and no understanding? The part we’d like you to understand is that you planned this in spirit because it was an experience you wanted to go through to see how you’d handle this situation. Would you be able to turn your mother’s behavior around and have understanding why she behaved this way towards you? What did you learn from this? Did it make you fearful? Did it make you know your mother was someone you didn’t want to be like?
Going forward can understand forgiveness isn’t really necessary because no one forced this situation upon the both of you. You both agreed to have this experience. Can you look at your mother without hate and not wanting to be together with her again, and realize you are a powerful spirit? You can be with your mother and you can be in control of how you act with each other. You have the power if you allow this relationship into your life, but you decide to live it differently.
It’s important for you to constantly know you are a powerful spirit. You can get control of what direction this relationship goes in. And if you feel this relationship is something you don’t wish to go further within this lifetime, you can cut it off. We’re sure the two of you will come together again in another life to finish this lesson.
Ph says, I feel sad, angry, and confused because I want to care for myself and not deal with my mother. At the same time I feel I need to have compassion. The Council says as hard as this is to believe, you both agreed to experience this difficulty. You planned this in spirit step by step because this was something you wanted to experience.
Your mother came into your life to help you with what you wanted to learn and grow from. You went through the experience of growing up with her. That part is finished. Now ask yourself what you’ve learned. Do you want to put an end to it now, or do you bring love into it instead of blaming her for the way you were treated? How brave of you to go through this experience with her and have her teach you to hate her until you learn this is what you both wanted.
You both wanted to find compassion. If you understand who you are as a spiritual being and who your mother truly is, and if you choose to go the route of showing compassion, you will see a change in your relationship.
Ph wraps it up by asking what’s there for me to learn and do. The Council repeats, compassion and love, but first understand who you are. First understand you both agreed to experience the relationship the way you did. Now that this part is finished, where do you go with this? How do you want to take this relationship the rest of the way? That’s what you need to focus on.
Listen to the entire 6-minute audio recording of The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Ph and the rest of us and let us know what you feel about it. Unfortunately the quality of this recording in this post and the next two posts isn’t up to our usual standards. We’ll do our best to ensure this doesn’t happen again.

What Can You Tell Me About the Baby I Lost?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, CocoMakerDesigns, who’s asking about the baby she lost. Why did he come to me and why did he have to go?
The Council says your pregnancy was an agreement between the two of you. The spirit who was your child wanted to just experience the very beginning of life. Because you’ve had other lifetimes with this spirit, you decided to be the person that would help him come into this world to feel what it was like to be an embryo in the uterus. You volunteered in spirit to do this.
From what we can see, the spirit of your son has already gone into another reality and is living a life differently than it would have with you.
If you feel you’d like to know if you’ll see this spirit again, we can say, yes, you’ll have other realities together if this is something you both want.
Now you’re in a place where, if you still want to have children, you can go forward with this and create other spirits that are waiting to come to you and have agreed to part of your life. Whatever you wish to create and experience and they wish to create and experience, it links up together. These other spirits are on standby if you wish to have more children.
Coco wraps up her questions by asking, Should I stop trying to have more kids? The Council says if this is something you want, then go for it. It’s already in your plans and you have the power to go forward with what you’ve planned with other spirits.
Listen to the entire 3-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for CocoMakerDesigns and the rest of us and let us know what you feel about it.

How Can We Protect Ourselves From Evil in the World?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, LearningToDiscern, who’s recently started reading on the internet about the Illuminati movement, the dark side of government, and CIA professionals. I’ve also been reading about mind control and surveillance that we as a society are living under. The Council asks LearningToDiscern why they’re reading this kind of material? What are you looking for? And what do you think this kind of reading does to your vibration?
LearningToDiscern says, I’ve seen proof on the internet that connects these subjects to the newly changed government. The Council says these rumors surround every government. There’s always rumors of a secret society, rumors about aliens taking over, rumors the Illuminati is taking over, among others. There are rumors of other groups that were in the government that were secretly hoping to change the minds of people to control how they think. There were suggestions that people believed they were seeing advertisements that were working on their subconscious. This has gone on for quite a long time. Ask yourself why you keep reading about these subjects/ What’s your reason for doing this?
LearningToDiscern says, I read a lot of metaphysical books. The move towards transhumanism is, I think, the movement that will take us further from spirituality. The Council says the transhumanism movement is made up of groups of people who believe that through thinking and physical experiments they can get the body to live much longer and control the functions of the body. They believe transhumanism is something that can be controlled. This is in experimental stages all over our reality. People are wondering how to make life better.
LearningToDiscern says, Among all the things I’ve been reading, what disturbed me most was the use of children these evil forces use in their rituals. The Council says now you’re thinking of secret groups again. Unfortunately this does happen because the people in your reality have all agreed to go into this area and everyone would experience it as it brings fear. How does this touch your life? Right now you’re bringing all of this into your life. What do you want to learn? Do you want to change it? Changing it means not giving these subjects your attention. Take your thoughts and feelings and focus on something that doesn’t frighten you.
LearningToDiscern asks if all this information is true? The Council says it’s true for those people in your reality that wish to experience these subjects. They wish to hear about it. They wish to delve into finding out what the secret is and if there’s a better way to live. All those who wish to experience and learn about these things will create this. For these people this is real. There are others who won’t give these subjects another thought and so they don’t bring it into their reality. It’s your choice whether you want to focus on these subjects or not.
LearningToDiscern says if it’s true, how do we live our life as an individual with children and be protected from all this. And how do we get closer to spirituality in this kind of atmosphere? The Council says there’s no reason to think there’s something you need to be protected from. Just remove it from your reality by changing your thoughts. If you wish to experience a different kind of life without these things, stop researching and reading about them. With the decision that you don’t want these things in your life and changing the focus of your attention, you will change your life.
When you find yourself thinking about these subjects, acknowledge the thought and then make a decision. Do you want to learn more about these subjects and keep them in your reality, or do you wish to change your reality? You can read about a topic that you like, something that makes you feel safe or happy. It’s totally up to you.

What Happens to Our Future Lives After We Awaken to Our True Self?
The post answer’s questions for The Council from a reader named, Darla, who’s the author of the very entertaining blog, She’s A Maineiac. Darla says it seems as if one of our main purposes is to have a spiritual awakening, rediscover our true selves, and realize just how powerful and divine we are. The Council acknowledges that this is wanted in every reality we are in.
Darla says during a Quantum Healing Hypnotherapy session I had a profound experience of my higher self. I was expansive and gigantic, full of divine love, energy, and power. My Council spoke through me and answered all of my questions. My question for The Council is, what happens to our future lives after we have an awakening to our true self? The Council says as the creator, you’ll create what happens in your future lives.
In some lifetimes you’ll completely forget who you are and what you’ve discovered in your current life because the fun of coming into a new reality is having the joy of rediscovering who you really are again. Some people come in with some knowledge of who they are and they feel their power and they use it in their current lifetime. Others come in without this knowledge and they learn as they go. It all depends on how you wish to experience your future lives. (Here The Council seems to imply that we can’t get enough of awakening to our true self and we’re inclined to create future lives to give ourselves more opportunities to do just that.)
Darla asks if we have to reincarnate again and therefore forget who we really are again? The Council replies that there isn’t anything you have to do. You’ll reincarnate if that’s what you want. It’s very important to understand that you are the creator of everything you experience.
Darla asks if there’s an end to reincarnation once we’ve fully awakened to our higher self on Earth, or do we at least transcend to higher states of consciousness? The Council says you’re always in higher states of consciousness when you’re in spirit. There’s never an end to reincarnation because there’s always a desire to spread the love. We don’t stop reincarnating because we want to continue to grow and to bring love from spirit into physical form. There are many times where you don’t reincarnate for a long time, and yet there’s always a desire to jump back into physical life. It’s when you’re ready and when you want it.
Darla asks what her path is moving forward? The Council says your path forward is to meditate and imagine what it could have been like in many lives where you jump in and live your life, and when you go back to spirit you look at this life and say, Wow, that was difficult, but I got the message by the end of that lifetime. Or, What fun it was to take those steps of knowing nothing and finding the connection to spirit, and finding the connection to my higher self. I want to do that again.
What you create in the future is the feeling you want. It’s the joy of jumping into a life and seeing how you handle each lifetime and how you bring that love in.

Twin Flames, Soul Mates, and Future Lives Together
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Rose, who asks The Council about soul mates and twin flames. She says, I was in a relationship with a woman for about 5 years, but we clashed a lot. So I left for one year and was in a relationship with someone else.
My grandmother passed away and I traveled alone to the funeral. Something told me to contact my previous love. When I returned home I decided I would leave the woman I was with for a year who was my fiance and pursue a relationship with my previous love. Two days after getting home and bringing my original love back into my life, my mother passed away. This shattered me, but my original girlfriend kept me afloat through it.
The Council says this is a role that you and your original girlfriend have played together many times. You’ve been a support of any kind that’s needed in each reality that the two of you have created.
Rose says, The love I have for my original girlfriend is something I didn’t think was possible and it’s grown stronger since we were together the first time. Once as she was leaving my house she looked at me funny and said, It’s like another part of me is staring back at me, like an extension of my soul. The Council says this is because we’re all one, and sometimes what you see in the other person is a part of who you are. When you see great love and recognition in another person, you’re seeing the love you have within you and the spiritual part of yourself.
Rose says, While I have no doubt that this woman being in my life was planned in spirit, I’m not sure what her role is. Is it possible that she’s my twin flame? The Council says she is not a twin flame, but you are part of the same soul group that has chosen to come together many, many times. There’s great comfort in this relationship in each reality, whether you’re being a mother, father, siblings, or friends. It’s something you’re very used to.
Many people believe being a twin flame means you are created at the same time and you go through many lifetimes meeting each other. There’s great recognition as soon as one meets the other, and you have this great feeling that this person you’re with is part of yourself.
Bob asks if twin flames have anything to do with one soul being born into two bodies and The Council answers that twin flames can come in many different ways. It comes when you’re in spirit and there’s a blending with another spirit so the two of you feel as if you’re one, but this feeling isn’t felt in every lifetime.
When you feel this connection it’s you, in your current lifetime, connecting to all the lifetimes you’ve been with this other soul where you’ve changed roles. As time passes there’s a recognition that begins to get stronger and stronger, but it’s started in spirit where you both begin.
There’s a blending of spirits and you always want to learn the same lessons, and you have a desire to be of support. That’s why you have such a connection. It’s such a feeling of great love because you’re recognizing this other spirit subconsciously and you’re feeling the love, but because there’s such a connection you begin to feel and understand the love you have for yourself.
Rose asks if it’s possible for this woman to be her partner again in another lifetime. The Council says it all depends on what you both decide in spirit. If this is something you both want when the two of you are planning another reality, you can make this happen.
Rose says, I can’t imagine spending a lifetime with a different soul. I understand I have lessons to learn that other souls may need to teach me, but is it possible our souls will decide to pair again romantically? The Council says in your relationship you have a desire to share what you learn from other souls in your current reality. What you each learn you share with each other, and this will continue into the other realities you create if this is what you want. You are the creator.

How Can I Help This Man Who’s Dealing With Loss?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Curious. She says, A family friend who I haven’t heard from in years, maybe decades, reached out to me recently because he’s dealing with loss and he’s having a difficult time with it. He thought that since I was also grieving he’d get in touch and maybe we can be a listening ear to each other. I’m trying to help him, but I’m struggling with my own grief. I’m very moody and sometimes I’m sharp with him. I talk about my own problems instead of helping him, so I’m not sure I can be of help.
The Council says the two of you pre-planned in spirit for this man to reach out to you, be supportive, and for you to help each other get through the grieving process. When you speak about your own problems, that’s a way of sharing and helping the other person, even if you don’t see it that way. You can talk about feelings and things you think about. When you share these it helps the other person. Don’t be so hard on yourself and know that this was planned in spirit. Your way of helping is by sharing. And pay attention to what this other person shares. It’ll make an impact on your life.
Curious was told she should try to be of service to others, so she’s trying. The Council asks if Curious knows when she’s of service to others she’s also bringing healing energy to herself. It’s never a one-way issue.
Curious asks, How can I be of service to him and others? The Council says by doing exactly what you’re doing. Go through your moods and feelings and share them. How the two of you share your experience with each other is how you help each other in this situation. When helping others, always be a good listener. Be compassionate and find comforting words that you feel. As long as you feel and believe it will help this person, share that.
Curious says, I’m curious if we’ve had past lives together and I’m supposed to help him during this time. The Council repeats that this was pre-planned and mentions that you’ve shared a few other lives together. Because of these other lives there’s comfort with each other, a lot of learning together, and a lot of joy together. In this lifetime, because you’re both dealing with grief, there’s the desire to come together and deal with this grief together.
Curious says, I don’t know his intentions and I don’t want to be rude and directly ask him what they are because he’s very fragile, grieving, and needing support. The Council says his intention is to support you and not feel alone in his grief.
Curious says, I don’t want to assume someone always wants something, but I wonder why he’s contacting me now. The Council says it’s not that he wants something from you. He’s contacting you so you can share your experience.
Curious asks if this relationship will be for a short time and once he’s moved on from his grief, things will be back to how they were and we’re just crossing paths for only this moment? The Council says they feel the creations you’re both working on right now is to keep this friendship and not disappear from each other’s lives. If the both of you continue to have these thoughts of a longer-term relationship, you’ll create this. We can’t predict ahead of time what you’ll create with your thoughts and your feelings, but you planned to stay in touch.
Curious says, This experience has shown me that I’d love to be of service to others and help them. I’m even thinking of trying to learn Reiki or something like that. Is this something I should pursue, or just stick to concentrating all my energy on my sons? The Council says they always advise pursuing healing modalities. By learning Reiki you’ll learn more about energy and vibration and how to work with it. This is a very good thing. By learning Reiki you’ll learn how to heal yourself, you’ll learn how to heal others, and you’ll be of service, which is what you wanted.

What Are Soul Families and Do They Last Forever?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Eden, who wants to know more about the concept of soul families. She asks, How many souls generally belong to one soul family, and does the soul family last for eternity or can a soul change to another soul family?
The Council says different soul families can have different amounts of souls. And souls can pop in and out of other soul groups to experience what these other souls want to experience. As souls we’re all connected, here to support each other and grow, and most of all to bring love into every situation. There’s jumping into another soul group to help a soul who’s planning something that another soul has gone through. And this soul volunteers to go into that soul’s group and that soul’s life and work with them on whatever experience they wish to have. You’re always with certain souls you enjoy incarnating with, but there’s also that moving around a little bit.
Eden asks the purpose of coming together with other souls to create a soul family? The Council says it’s to always be supportive of each other. There’s a blending of the vibration of these souls and the desire to learn from each other. It’s like in the physical world where certain people help you while you experience something and share joy with you. It’s the same in your soul family.
Eden asks if the purpose is simply to love and support one another and to grow together. The Council says of course it’s to grow together, support one another, love one another, and send supportive energy to souls from your home group to help them get through whatever they’re experiencing.
Eden asks, Do you generally incarnate with members of your soul family? The Council simply says, Yes.
Lastly Eden asks, Which people, if any, who are currently in my life are members of my soul family. The Council advises Eden to look at whatever experience, memory, or story you share with your father. He’s the most familiar soul from your soul group in your current lifetime. In the future of your current life, if it goes in the direction you originally planned in spirit, there are three new people that come into your life – two men and one woman. You’ll recognize them by taking a few breathes and looking into their eyes. When you get that “ah ha” feeling, this will confirm they are also from your soul group.

What are These Shadows I See from the Corners of My Eyes?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Live_Breathe, who’s curious about seeing shadows from the corner of their eyes. For many years I’ve been seeing these shadows. I’ve not faced any negative consequences from it, but I’m curious to know what it is.
The Council says some of these shadows are human spirits passing through. Your higher self planned for you to be able to see spirits in this lifetime. Your Third Eye chakra wants to see more of what’s going on around you. When you see shadows you’re seeing spirits, and this is a wonderful thing.
We suggest that you meditate. Sit quietly, even if it’s for 10 minutes a day, and meditate on the Third Eye chakra. Do the chakra breathing technique that we’ve recommended in other readings. As you begin to meditate and your Third Eye begins to open, you can begin to experience clairvoyance. You’ll see more clearly and begin to hear things.
This is a wonderful thing because it’s time for everyone in your reality to want to know more about who they are as spiritual beings. There are other spirits you’ve known that have passed on, but they’re still around. This is a wonderful way to communicate and let them know you’re seeing them. When you see a shadow you can begin to ask them why they are there or if they need something from you. See where this takes you.
Live_Breathe says, At times I almost feel as if a shadow has walked into the room only to realize later there’s no one there. Does seeing these shadows mean I’m unconsciously developing my clairvoyance? The Council says, yes.
Live_Breathe closes by asking, Do I need any protection from these shadows? The Council says there’s no protection needed unless you believe there’s something fearful there, but there isn’t anything to be afraid of. If for any reason in your thoughts you feel something isn’t right, then you can surround yourself with white light and you’ll be fine. There’s nothing there to be afraid of.
The Council says so many souls that came into this lifetime, lived a very calm life, and then all of a sudden they are opening up, for one reason or another, to energy and spirit. It’s time for this communication to take place.

Do My Current Career Struggles Relate to Job Karma?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Adhvazila, who asks about their professional life. They say, I’ve been struggling on the professional front for quite some time. Does this have anything to do with job karma and will it end any time soon?
The Council says they don’t like to use the word karma. Karma is really just a choice you make. In many of your lives you had it very easy, didn’t have to work, and had no patience for people who lived by standards that weren’t up to yours. In your current life you thought you’d like to experience the difficulty, the struggle, and how to accept it and change it. And that’s where you are right now.
We see you coming out of these career difficulties when you become grateful for the job you have, even if that’s not something that’s easy. Focus on the fact that you are working and that you can support yourself. Show this attitude of gratefulness and then begin to look elsewhere for other jobs. Put out there the kind of work you’d like to do. Show patience and kindness to everyone you meet because of the way you were in other lives. This is what you wanted to express in your current lifetime.
Adhvazila says, There’s a sense of loss of direction and currently my situation is also quite stressful. The Council says when you’re feeling stresssful it’s good to take deep breathes every day. Be grateful for the job you have. If the stress comes from your work or if it comes from the people you work with, be patient and kind and you’ll see the stress reduce.
Adhvazila asks, Will I ever be able to earn a good living in a less stressful environment? The Council’s advice is to love what you have and you’ll come out of the situation you’re in.

What’s Going On with This Relationship with My Co-Worker?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Gabby, who asks about a situation she has with a co-worker that’s become serious. She says, I remember when I first met her I felt something about our connection that I interpreted as romantic interest. The Council says that’s because a romantic interest is something you want to create in your life. On meeting this person you hoped a romantic interest was present.
Gabby says the feeling between us is intense, but after interacting with her for the past year or so, not only doesn’t it seem like we’ll have a romantic relationship, but the relationship has become very toxic and full of drama.
The Council says the relationship will go in the direction of drama if your vibration is wanting something and the other person isn’t wanting what you want. It’s like a little battle that goes on that begins to cause separation because right now you’re hanging on to something the other person doesn’t want.
Gabby says, I gave her so much love, but it’s like she has a wall and can’t accept any of it. The Council says it’s not that she can’t accept your love. She isn’t interested in that kind of relationship with you. When you give and give and give, at first it’s nice, but then the other person will begin to see you have feelings that they don’t want from you. This is when you have the drama and the basis of the relationship changes.
Gabby says, When I stopped giving so much I noticed that there’s nothing there, which makes me very confused. How can you have all this connection with someone and at the same time there’s absolutely nothing? The Council says you can have a wonderful and strong connection with someone because of the past lives you’ve had together, but that doesn’t mean that in this particular life there would be a romantic connection.
Gabby says, I don’t think this has ever happened before in my life and I don’t know how to interpret it. What’s the purpose of us meeting in this lifetime if our intense connection simply disconnects? The Council says the purpose that you set up in spirit before you came into this lifetime was to be supportive of each other. In spirit you didn’t create this relationship to be a romantic one.
Looking at this relationship what have you learned? Have you learned not to push to have something happen that you see the other person doesn’t want? It’s a simple lesson of being aware of what’s going on around you and in your life and knowing it’s okay not to have this particular relationship grow the way you want it to. It’s safe to let go of this idea of romance with this person and look for it somewhere else.
Gabby asks, What do this other person and I need to learn? The Council says you need to learn to be friends if that’s what you both want to create. You need to learn how to create distance between each other and how to live your own life and your own path and still be friendly.
Because of past lifetimes when there was a stronger connection, it was a fun thought for both of you to see if you could just come into each other’s lives and be friendly and help each other out. This is what you intended to experience. You just wanted to get together and make a friendship happen and share other parts of your life.
Gabby says, I’m at the end of my rope here. The Council suggests you let go of the rope and look around. When you start putting out the vibration of wanting to find someone who can come into your life and you can have that romantic relationship, it will come. Let go of the idea of a romantic relationship with your co-worker and wish this person well. Wish yourself well and go into detail about the kind of relationship you’d like. What kind of person? How would you like the relationship to be? See this and focus on it every day and it will come.

How Can I Help My Insecure Son?
This post answers questions for The Council from an anonymous reader who’s having difficulty watching her young son navigate this world. He’s a tricky kid, very bright and curious, but competitive and insecure, and it seems he’s unable to get a break.
The Council says it’s very interesting that your son is competitive because in many ways he needs that experience and the praise from that, yet he’s also insecure. At the moment your son doesn’t have a lot of belief in himself.
When you allowed your son to come into this reality by giving birth to him it wasn’t for the purpose of living his life for him and telling him how to be. You’re supposed to help your son come into this life and then watch what he does. Look for signs of what he’s going through and what his interests are, but in no way do you shape his life to live it the way you want, or force him to accomplish what you think he should accomplish.
He’s come into this life with his own lessons and ideas. As a parent the best thing you can do is to watch him and allow him to unfold. The best way to do this is to show him love every day. Give him praise. Make him feel important with your attention no matter what he does. This will bring out his ability to have confidence in himself and look for what path he wants to take.
Anonymous says, My son’s little brother seems to skate through life, but my oldest son often feels excluded in our neighborhood, his extended family, and at his new school. The Council says both your sons have come into this reality with different ideas of what they’d like to experience.
Anonymous asks, How can we help our oldest son feel loved and know close friendship? The Council replies that first you must show this love to him at home. When he feels worthy, then he’ll begin to step out of himself and reach out to other people. This begins with you and with love and attention in the home.
Anonymous says, I often wonder what my son carried into this life from other lives. The Council says his intention is to become very successful. This will unfold when he becomes older. Right now just observe him, see where his interests are, and praise him, praise him, praise him.
Anonymous says, If his journey is meant to be difficult I can’t change that, but I’m curious if I can help him experience more peace and kindness along the way. The Council says your older son’s life isn’t meant to be a difficult one. What you think can be a big challenge for him right now, it was all planned in spirit before he was born. Let him go through these challenges, but if he has the belief, the praise, the attention of parents and his brother, that will help him get through what he’s working on in the present.
Anonymous closes by saying, My son is very resistant to any sort of meditation or mindfulness. The Council advises Anonymous not to push these on her son even though they’d love him to do them. When it’s time it will unfold. If your son needs to go through life a different way in order to enjoy it, experience it, have fun, and be successful, he’ll create that way.

Is This Life a Punishment for Failure in a Previous Lifetime?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Weston, who says, every since I can remember I’ve always been drawn to the constellation Pleiades. If the stars are visible at night I feel I have to see them before I go indoors. Why is that?
The Council says because of what’s being created in your reality, more and more people are drawn to learning about other lives from different dimensions, different planets, and stars. There will be more and more proof of these things that comes to light very soon. Our vibrations are now in a place where we can bring this information in by being more curious about it and feeling a connection to it. This is how your reality is expanding. You being pulled to the stars is a memory and an awakening of bringing more knowledge into your reality.
We’ll be finding more proof of other life. We’ll be able to go further in our journey of expansion of space. We’ll hear more talk of people believing there are what are called aliens in this reality. This topic will become more and more prevalent as everyone’s vibration expands to take this in.
Weston says, I feel in my soul this life is a punishment, possibly self-imposed, for a previous failure. And he closes by asking, Who am I?
The Council says you’re a spirit that jumped into this reality to have many different experiences. Your life is not a failure. You’re experiencing only what you’re creating. If you don’t like what you’re creating, then you must do the work of meditating, or at least visualizing in every detail how you want your life to be.
As we’ve said before, there isn’t any karma. There’s no punishment that you have to make up for something from other lives. It’s just what you’ve come in to experience and to change. Every lifetime you grow, either from joy or from challenges. There’s no failure. There may be something you wish you could have done differently. And you may come back and pick that to experience again differently, but there’s no failure. You never get it wrong. You have as many lifetimes as you want to experience something the way you want it to be. But to say your life is a failure, we don’t agree with that.
If you think your life is a self-imposed failure, it’s because you’re not are creating it the way you want it to be. As you create your life in some way other than the way you want it with your thoughts and visualizations, by changing the focus of what you’re thinking about this life, you can change it.

How Far Have I Come Toward Accomplishing My Goals?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Maureen, who’s been shown many things by her higher self and others in this lifetime, including relevant past lives. Maureen says, I feel as if many large and small loose ends have been bundled into this life. I also feel and greatly appreciate the many pieces moving around to help me succeed. I’m scared I’m not getting what I need to get in this life and I’m overanalyzing everything until I’m exhausted.
The Council asks Maureen what it is you’re not getting. Analyzing too much is always a problem. Try to relax and just be in your life. It’s good to question things, but only for a short time. Meditate on your question. Talk to people about what’s on your mind. But going over and over things, trying to analyze and find answers to your questions when you’re not ready for the answers, will serve no purpose.
If you’ve found out about past lives, that’s wonderful, but try being in the moment and focusing more on your current lifetime and what’s going on around you.
Maureen says on the other hand I feel I’ve come so very far. The Council says they can see you’ve come far, but you’ll never get it all done. You’ll never get all the answers to your questions. In each lifetime there are more questions. There are more things you want to know. There are more ways you want to achieve things. You’re always learning from each experience. Be happy that an answer comes. No matter how much you analyze or know about your past, you’re here because you want to focus on what’s going on in your present.
Maureen asks, How far have I come in this life regarding my goals and what advice can you give me moving forward? The Council says you have many, many more goals that you wish to reach. And you’ll get there when you meditate or sit quietly and imagine what you’d like to create next in your life. Appreciate some of the things you’ve learned. Whether it’s a challenge or something that brings you lots of joy, what have you learned from it?
Taking what you’ve learned when you appreciate yourself and how your higher self is guiding you through each step of the way, you’ll have more understanding of how you can create moving forward. When you begin to see what you’re creating on a daily basis and you enjoy that, then you’ll know there’s nothing you can’t do. You can achieve anything. You have to focus on it. You need to appreciate what you have. You have to think about the directions you need to go in. You’ll find that you reach your goals that you focus on. You may zig-zag around, but you’ll reach them. In your next lifetime there will be more goals. There will be more lessons. There will be more fun to have, and it will go on, and on, and on.
When you ask if you’ll reach your goals, you’ll reach whatever you want to in this lifetime if you take the time to see it and feel the way you want it. Imagine every detail of whatever it is you want. If you want more money, picture it in your checkbook, picture going to your bank, picture going into a shop and you can buy anything you want. You don’t have to know how the money is coming to you. It’s just there. Picture traveling. Picture whatever it is you want to do. Just by picturing it and feeling it as if you were doing it, and the joy you experience doing this, you’ll create what you want.
Stop overanalyzing and start appreciating more. There’s no way you’re not getting what you need in this lifetime. You’re getting it at your own pace. You won’t slide back down the rungs of a ladder because you’re not climbing as fast as you want. You’ll get there. Enjoy the getting there. The joy comes from creating what you want, not when you get it. It’s the creation along the way and the fun of how you’re doing this that matters. Imagine you’ve been dreaming of something and it showes up in your life. Get excited about that and then create some more. There’s no fear you’re not getting what you want.

Why Don’t I Have a Best Friend or a Partner?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Diana, who says she’s struggled with deep loneliness most of her life. I have good friends, but I’ve always craved a best friend who’s always there and I can trust 100% for support. I’m 46 years old and single, and I’d also love to have a partner or a husband. Is there something I’m doing wrong?
The Council suggests instead of focusing on not having a best friend, look at your situation differently. If you have many friends, they can all be a best friend. There’s always something in each person that will make you feel close to them. You’re lucky to have many friends. If you had one best friend and they moved away, you’d have nothing.
Be grateful you have these best friends. The more you can focus on being grateful you have them, one of them will become the way you want a best friend to be. Or you’ll meet someone new and you’ll bring this person in and they’ll act the way you want a best friend to be. Be more grateful for the friends you have. The more grateful you feel, the more you’ll be able to bring your life closer to the way you want it to be. By focusing on not having a best friend you’re attracting more of not having a best friend into your life.
Diana says, I’ve been attracting the wrong people. What can I do to change this? The Council says to appreciate your friends. They’re not the wrong people. They are spirits that have come into your life to teach you to learn about each one of them, and to teach you to be grateful and feel happiness they’re in your life. When you do that it forces you to grow. It allows you to bring people in your life or new people to a point where you can allow closeness. This is with friends, people at work, and with a relationship.
If you can’t be grateful for the friends you have, you’ll never bring in the right partner because you’re searching. You’re searching for a best friend. You’re searching for closeness. And this searching prevents closeness from coming. When you’re satisfied and grateful for what you have, your friends become closer and the partner you want will appear. It’s all from your gratitude.
Diana asks, Will I find my tribe and husband one day. The Council says it’s all there for you. Change your thinking and it will happen. She asks, Should I move locations and start a new life, or is that just escaping my issues? The Council says your issues will follow you wherever you go. If there’s somewhere you’d genuinely like to move to and have a new start, that would be fine. But if your thinking doesn’t change, if you’re not grateful for what you have, what you want won’t come to you because you’re resisting it with your thoughts and you’ll stay searching.
Diana closes by saying the loneliness is really affecting my mental health and I’d be grateful for your advice. The Council says don’t focus on your loneliness even though you’re feeling lonely. Begin changing your thoughts. Get excited about new friendships and a new partner in your life. Imagine how it will be in every way you can and in every detail. Keep thinking these thoughts and everything will change.

Does My Dead Husband Want to Continue Our Marriage?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, AlwaysMrs, who asks if her husband wants to continue their marriage. As you read this post you’ll understand AlwaysMrs’ husband recently passed away, but her question doesn’t make that quite clear.
After commenting that they know AlwaysMrs’ husband has passed away, The Council says when you’re in spirit you’re feeling love for the person you were married to and all the people you were married to in all your lifetimes. This love never goes away. You might say we’re all partners and we’re all married to each other. We’re all connected. In spirit your husband is still connected to you. It’s not the same as if he was here in physical reality, but the love and the connection you shared are still there.
AlwaysMrs says, I’ve received mixed messages where sometimes the message is: Yes, he’ll forever be my husband. He’ll do everything in his power to be what I need and want. I don’t need to find someone else and he doesn’t want me to be with someone else.
The Council says when you’re in spirit you’d never wish a person to be alone and not find and experience love again. It’s all part of the journey. Your husband would love you to move on. He wants you to remember him and remember the love you shared, but now move forward in your life with all the other experiences you want to live through while you’re still in a human reality. A spirit would always want you to love someone else and to move on.
AlwaysMrs says others give general messages like: He wants you to move on and be happy, alluding to finding another person to love. The Council says when you think of him you’ll still feel the love he sends to you. And that’s to help you do whatever the next step is in your life that you want to do.
AlwaysMrs says, I want to continue our marriage and strengthen our connection as he lives on. The Council says he lives on in spirit. You are still in a physical reality. You can strengthen your connection by meditating, by speaking to your husband every day, and imagining him walking through life with you, but that doesn’t open you up to creating others in your physical reality.
AlwaysMrs says, Because I can’t directly hear from my husband and have to rely on mediums, I don’t know how he feels right now. The Council says please don’t rely on mediums or anyone else. Meditate. Connect with the spirit of your husband. Talk to him and you’ll get the answers you need. If you don’t hear these answers in words, you’ll just know the answer to a question. You’ll know what’s the next step to take. Answers come differently when they come from spirit.
AlwaysMrs says she wants to know if her husband wants to continue the marriage the way she does and if he’ll try to make our marriage work with me until we’re together again. The Council says your husband wishes you to be happy. You’ve chosen to experience things in a physical reality and that means meeting other people, having other experiences, and moving on with your life. There’s nothing your husband is able to do in the spirit world that will keep the two of you married. He’ll send you love and he’ll cheer you on to move forward with any other relationships in any way you wish to go in your physical reality.
Focus on your life in your physical reality. You won’t lose your connection with your husband. What your higher self planned with your husband and what he wants for you now is to move on and live your life. There are other things you planned, even though you don’t know what that is at this time. It’s good to stay connected to your husband, to love him, to remember the love you shared with him, but focus on the here and now. There are other things you wish to do.
AlwaysMrs says, I don’t want to pursue a relationship he doesn’t want anymore. I know how my husband felt before, but obviously things have changed and I need to know how he feels now. The Council says when you’re in spirit you perceive things differently. Where he is you wouldn’t say, I don’t want to pursue this relationship because my husband doesn’t want it anymore. Where he is you’re always connected.
AlwaysMrs says, I still need to know how my husband feels and how we move forward as still married or not. The Council says you appreciate the life you had in your physical reality. You feel the love you had. You connect with your husband on another level by meditating and know you’re connected. The love that’s there is there for you now to help you create the different experiences you want to have in the future.
The Council closes by saying only love is real. When you go into spirit you take this love with you. When you’re in spirit and you come into a physical reality you take this love with you again. That’s what we’re all about.

Something Missing from My 10-Year Relationship with Boyfriend
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Loving Star, who’s had a loving boyfriend for the past 10 years, but she feels like something’s missing in this relationship.
The Council advises Loving Star to search within herself and asks what she thinks is missing and what she’s bringing to the relationship? How would you use what you find is missing to heal this relationship and bring more love and understanding into it? When something feels like it’s missing it’s always easier to blame the other person. They aren’t acting a certain way or they aren’t doing a certain thing. What’s missing within you? When you’re connected to your higher self there’s nothing missing.
The Council suggests you meditate. When you’re connected to your higher self you’ll feel the love with everything around you – with your partner, with yourself, and with your environment. Right now it’s important for you to search for what you feel is missing within yourself to find the answer you’re looking for. You’ll find this answer as you reconnect with your higher self.
Loving Star asks The Council, What was our pre-birth plan? Did we agree in spirit we’d stay together? The Council says you planned to be together. And when you planned this from a spiritual vibration, you thought you’ll stay together, you’ll have fun, you’ll do this and that and help each other grow. What’s happening to you now and what you’re feeling in your relationship is part of what was planned. You would notice the emptiness or something missing and you planned to find it, but within yourself.
Out of boredom or not wanting to do the inner work you’ll look for others and bring that into your life. When you constantly think there’s something missing, you’re looking for another answer. You’ll attract another person to you. Not necessarily the right person, but another person. Now you’re faced with the old boyfriend and the new boyfriend.
Loving Star says, I ask this quesstion because I fell in love with another man who, as you mentioned in a previous reading for me, was my father in another lifetime. The Council says wouldn’t it be wonderful for you to find that love within you and for you? Love yourself.
Loving Star says, I talk to angels a lot and they told me this new man also likes me very much and he’s waiting for me to show him my love. I currently keep all my feelings for him inside me because I don’t want to hurt my boyfriend. On the other hand, I’d like to show this new man that I feel the same way he does.
The Council says if you do this, what do you expect will happen? Will you ride off into the sunset and be happy forever? That’s not why this new man is in your life. Ask yourself, if you share these feelings do you share them just to have the ability to share them and not expect anything else to happen? Or if you share your feelings what’s the intent behind this? What do you think will happen? Search these feelings within yourself.
Loving Star asks The Council if it’s okay for her to have these feelings for another man. I feel very bad about having them. The Council says of course it’s okay. You’re in a physical reality and with that comes a physical life with emotions, and thoughts, and lessons, and fun, and hardships. This is all part of being in a physical reality. It’s not necessary to feel bad about having these feelings. No purpose is served for you to feel bad about this. It’s just emotions.
Loving Star asks The Council, What happens when I show my love to this man? I feel very confused about it because I feel very drawn to him. I’d like to know your views, insights, and guidance on this situation.
The Council advised Loving Star to find out your intentions for sharing your feelings with this man. Is it just to share it to find out whether this person also has loving feelings toward you? Or is it to change your life? Is it to leave your boyfriend because this other person has feelings for you? There isn’t any right or wrong answer, but what do you expect and what do you want to happen? Do you just want to say, I feel very drawn to you and I just wanted you to know that? And then hear this person say these words back to you? Is that enough?
The Council says, We feel you’re looking for an escape. We feel you’re looking to fill a hole within you. This person has played this role to get you to this point where you have to decide what you need. Why do you need another person to make you feel good? Why can’t I feel good and love towards myself and just be happy with the people around me? Why can’t I choose out of happiness where I want the next part of my life to go?
The Council agrees what’s missing from Loving Star’s relationship with her boyfriend is really something that’s missing within herself. These two men are playing roles they said, in spirit, they would play so you’d come to a point of confusion and have to figure out your situation. Figure it out not just from your head, but from your heart. Connect with your higher self and see how it views the situation. What do you want? What are you trying to do? The answers will come to you if you try this.
The Council closes by saying that only love is real. When you go into spirit you take this love with you. When you’re in spirit and then you come onto physical reality you take this love with you. That’s what we’re all about.

My On/Off Relationship with My Sister-In-Law and Our Past Lives
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, SillyGoose, who’s asking about her relationship with her sister-in-law. She says, I feel like I have a strong connection with her and her husband from past lives. She can sometimes be very kind and sometimes she becomes very rude. I want to stay away from her, but then she manages to pull me back into her life again.
The Council says in a past life you were your sister-in-law’s mother. You were strict and trying to teach her, but she was a rebel in that life. When you handed out punishment you’d then feel guilty. She’d then pull you back in, make you love her, think she’d behave, and then she’d act out again. In your current life, part of her remembers how to pull you in. But there’s true love there between the two of you and your sister-in-law will get clearer on this as time moves on.
Understand this dynamic that’s going on now. If you can laugh at the idea that at one time your sister-in-law was your naughty little child that knew how to manipulate you, this is what’s going on in your current life. Understand you can let go of what she does and see yourself and her as spirits.
SillyGoose says, I’m confused if my sister-in-law really cares for me or is she just pretending to? The Council says your sister-in-law’s love is real.
When your sister-in-law is being rude, try to remember this comes from a time where she’d do that to annoy you as her mother. When your sister-in-law is frustrated she can turn to that being rude, but then afterward she’ll try and pull you back in her life again because she doesn’t want to loose you. Yes, there’s love there. Yes, you’re going through things. Yes, she’s going through things. But now you’re the one who has this information and can look at the situation differently. Just watch as your sister-in-law zig-zags back and forth. Perhaps you can find it somewhere within you to laugh about this because it’s a past life trait and it will change when you can accept it and be more humorous about it. Then you’ll be able to see the true love she has for you come through more and more.
Be humorous and patient with your sister-in-law. Watch how she acts as if you’re watching a movie, and your situation with her will make more sense as you begin to realize and understand her behavior is coming from a past life. Your purpose in this life is to love her again. This is what you wanted. Teach your sister-in-law that you accept her the way she is. Her purpose in this life was to know you’ll always be there for her and not leave her because she’s not a good person or doesn’t behave a certain way. You’re both learning from this dynamic that’s going on in your life and you brought these traits into your current life to help each of you learn from it.
SillyGoose asks, am I supposed to stay connected to my sister-in-law or is it better to stay away? The Council asks, with what you know now, what feels good to you when you ask yourself that question. The answer is within you. You know what it is. There’s no need for us to tell you. Ask yourself and do the work.
SillyGoose asks what lessons she has to learn from her sister-in-law, and The Council says, acceptance.

A Challenging Ex-Husband and Dependence on Her Mother
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Amorist, who says, in my life I feel I’ve been coping with relationships with many overbearing individuals. I assume there’s a purpose, but my ex-husband has been such a challenging person who I think fits the description of a narcissist. Empathy doesn’t come easily to him and he has very toxic ways of dealing with others.
The Council tells Amorist, you’re someone who’s trying to learn that you are a spirit in a physical body and everyone on Earth is also a spirit. Take a look at how you’re seeing these other people as overbearing and your ex-husband as being narcissistic. Instead of seeing these people as spirits that are pressing your buttons, see them as people who are pressing your buttons to see if you can look at them differently.
You may find these people overbearing and annoying, but can you get yourself to a point where you realize you don’t know what goes on in their lives. You don’t know what they’re going through. Can you see these people as spirits that are here with their own problems and experiences that they wish to go through and turn around? You’ve all agreed to be in this life together and to press each other’s buttons.
We love you as a spirit and we love you for everything you go through. But you’re in a place where you look at people negatively, which is fine because this is there to help you turn it around. Look at these people in your life that are annoying or overbearing and begin to see them as going through their stuff and trying to learn from it.
And in their own way when they get to a certain point they’ll see they are their higher self. You may not know it consciously, but your higher self is here because you want to turn your thinking around. We want to accept everyone for who they are and wish them well on their way.
Amorist asks about her history with her ex-husband beyond their current lifetime. The Council says because of what you wished to learn, knowing about your history is not important. What’s important is focusing on your present. You didn’t plan in spirit to focus on the past. You need to focus on what’s happening now and that’s what you wanted to do.
Amorist asks what her children are learning from her ex-husband. The Council says your children are learning from you how you respond to your husband. Do you speak negatively about him or about others? Your children will learn how you speak. How you handle these situations and how you speak will help your children on their path. Look at people differently, and have patience with them. Understand something is bothering these other spirits. You may not know what, but you can begin to understand we’re all here to have the fun of changing your thoughts and your life for the better. When you do this you’ll see how your world will change.
Amorist says, as a result of my ex-husband’s influence I’m concerned for the well-being of my children. The Council asks you to be loving and positive around your children. Amorist says things were so difficult for a long time. It was heart-breaking. Perhaps there’s something you can tell me about this situation that will ease my anxiety or help with my outlook.
You’re still focusing on what you’ve gone through with your ex-husband and your children. It was a difficult situation, but how are things right now? Is it still difficult? Do you still find the people around you to be obnoxious and difficult to get along with? Are you picking up on people’s bad traits? Are you judging them because they aren’t the way you believe they should be? It’s not so much about the other people, but about you, the way you are thinking, and how you handle these situations.
Amorist says, my mother is someone who is a very emotionally reactive and controlling individual who I feel seeks out disappointment and problems. The Council asks Amorist if she hears her judgemental words. This is what you see within your mother. Take another look. Look at her differently and understand your mother has her problems and difficulties, but there must be something positive you can see in her. Even if it’s the littlest thing we ask you to please focus on that.
Amorist says we’re living with my mother now and I’m really struggling with this situation. I want my own home so badly, but I don’t see the path forward toward that goal. The Council says when you become more accepting of everything, when you become grateful that you have a place to live with your overbearing mother, and when you can see good things in others your life will change. You’ll be able to move forward and have a better life, a home, and everything else you need, but you have to change your thoughts.
Amorist asks, how will I make ends meet and find a safe space for me and my children? The Council says safe space begins with love and positive thoughts. Do you play with your children? Do you talk about beautiful things? Do you point out what’s good or how other people are trying? Do you show this to your children? When you do these things you’re teaching them to look for the good in others.
Amorist asks, why am I dependent on my mother? The Council says it’s because you’ve decided to be in this place to learn from it. Amorist says, I love my mother but I feel sort of trapped, as though I don’t have space or privacy. I just want everyone to be happy and okay. The Council tells Amorist you must be happy and okay within yourself and then you’ll be able to see it in others. If you feel trapped in a jail cell, you’re the one with the key. We can promise you if you work hard to look at the good in others, if you can find the love you feel for people, if you can be grateful for what you have and teach that to others around you, when you do these things you’ll get what you need.
Amorist closes by asking, who am I in all of this? The Council answers you are a spirit who’s created this situation to learn from it, to grow from it, to bring love into this reality, to help others around you, and we’ll all grow together.

Who Was That Strange Man I Saw When I Was a Child?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, LilyDaisy, who says it seems everyone else’s questions for The Council also help her. The Council adds that when you read these other posts and something resonates within you and it helps you on some level, or you just like the post, we can almost positively say that you had similar experiences in another lifetime. It’s almost like a subconscious remembering. You’ll experience a deep understanding of what that other person is going through because you’ve been there yourself.
LilyDaisy says she’s curious about something strange she experienced as a child. I was boarding a bus with my family when I noticed a small, mysterious man that stood out. Even as a child it struck me as meaningful and I’ve never forgotten him. Later that day we were back at our neighbor’s house playing in the back yard. I climbed to the top of the hill and this same man popped up in front of me and scared me. There’s just no way this man would have been in the backyard of my friend’s house at that time. I’m interested to know what happened here?
The Council says this man was another spirit you’ve known in other lifetimes that was sort of passing through and you were allowed to see him. You allowed yourself to tune into what is much more than most of us experience in this reality. It was an experience you were able to remember later on and learn from it.
Because you’re so much more connected to spirit when you’re younger, just accept you were lucky enough at that age to see something and have it stay with you to help you grow later in life.
It could have come at another time in your life where it wasn’t important for you to learn about spirits and you would have forgotten about it. This experience was for the exact purpose of stirring your memory and having the questions asked later in life.

What Can My Father Do to Improve His Kidney Condition?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Love&Health, whose father has been recently diagnosed with a kidney condition and he was also born with one kidney. We can’t do anything about this condition from a medical perspective. What can my father do to improve his health? Please let me know if there are any natural remedies, medicines, yoga, or meditation that can help his condition.
The Council says they’re trying to make it clear that everyone on Earth is a spirit and a vibration. Whether you lift your vibration or get depressed and your vibration goes down, you are still a vibration and a powerful creator.
Rather than looking for natural remedies and medicines, which always seem to have side effects, we’d like you to know that to cure or change the condition of anything it has to begin with the vibration of healing. It has to begin on an energy level first. This is the direction your world is going toward. This is what everyone here has agreed to. Everyone wants to learn more about who they are. They want to learn how they are in charge of their life and they are powerful and can create anything.
On a physical level lemon water is always good to purify the kidneys. But rather than going toward chemical healing, go into your chakras, which must all be working correctly, in order for your body to accept the healing energy that’s needed to change what’s been created in the body.
Someone can have many things wrong with them, but if their vibration is constantly lifting and your thoughts are constantly positive and you’re constantly thinking of being well, no matter what shows up on a diagnosis, you may have a wonderful and long life.
Begin with aligning the chakras, making sure the energy comes into these places. On a physical level massage is always good. It helps relax the body, which will affect each of your organs. But it’s most important to go into a meditative state or just sitting in a chair and thinking how you are well. In reality, you are well. If you look at yourself and understand you are a spirit being, you’ll know you are well. There’s absolutely nothing wrong.
No matter what’s created in this lifetime – having one kidney, a disease, a broken bone, whatever is going on – you are well. So it’s important to see yourself as well. Let go of your difficulties. Don’t hold onto how this hurts or that hurts or this is wrong and that’s wrong. Go into the vibration of being positive and believing in yourself. On a subconscious level you know how to make yourself feel well and that’s what’s needed at this time.
The real help will come from the belief you are well. And a belief is just something you think about over and over again. Believe you’re well and everything in your body is working correctly. No matter what the diagnosis is, you are fine, and you’ll begin to feel fine. Then you’ll see you are the creator and you’ll create more. This is the catalyst that will set you off into the correct path of working on a higher level.

What Do I Need to Know and Unblock from My Past Lives?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Lisa, who has a recurring dream that takes place in Atlantis. I’m in a tower and hear a bell go off as red-skinned people are charging down a hill to attack us.
The Council says this dream is of a past life that takes place in Lemuria where the Atlanteans would attack villages in Lemuria. The people of Atlantis were more aggressive than the people of Lemuria and wanted to be in charge and take over new villages. That is what you’re remembering in this dream.
Lisa says the dream I had tonight was of a reincarnation pool and it was tied into my mother who I don’t get along with. The Council says this was in Atlantis. Before you created your next life, while you were still in your physical body, you could lay in this pool and research what you wanted to do and where you wanted to go. Just entering this water you could connect with the minds of others and see what they have learned and where they’ve been. This would give you ideas for what you wanted to create for your next life.
Lisa says, I’ve also had dreams of being a woman Pharaoh or empress in Egypt and I was burned in these dreams. The Council doesn’t see the part about being a Pharaoh or empress, but they see several lives where you were burned. Once in the 1600s as you prepared potions for people. You were known as a village doctor, but this wasn’t accepted at that time. You were also burned in a building fire in Germany.
Burning is something you’ve gone through and it’s coming up in your current life so you can let it go. Somewhere subconsciously you have a fear of fire and burning again. Take your focus and put it only on your current life and that you’re safe. Focus on everything you do in your current life is moving you forward and leaving these past lives behind.
Lisa says, I feel like my soul is always trying to teach me something, but I’m not fully awake. Who am I and what do I need to know and unblock from my past lives. The Council says you need to know you are a spirit that has come into physical reality many times. You planned to have a more peaceful reality in your current life because there were many ups and downs that you’ve experienced in other lifetimes. You’re here this time to enjoy yourself. You have no particular lesson you must learn. You’ll learn as you create your life day by day. Your purpose was to have a much easier life.
Listen to the entire 4-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Lisa and the rest of us and let us know what you feel about it.

Why Can’t I Find Employment in the Field of Archeology?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Indiana Jones, who says they have many interests but they don’t work out, even when I’m passionate about them. I’ve completed a degree in Archeology and have tried everything to increase my chances of gaining employment in this field and in museums, but after seven years I’ve been unsuccessful. I’ve studied other career paths and I’ve not been able to gain employment in those fields either.
The Council says you’ve done Archeology in other lifetimes. In an ancient Egyptian lifetime that’s related to your current life, you helped to build tombs for Pharaohs and their gold. You located places in the desert where tombs could be buried. This love of what you did in Egypt has come out in your current life.
At this point we’d suggest joining organizations like cruises that take people around the world. Take any sort of touring job, learn everything about it, and then be able to take people around. This will give you a lot of movement and travel, which is what you wanted in this lifetime.
You also brought the ability to teach many different subjects into this lifetime. Learn about what’s going on in the world now and teach about it. Even if you did this in small groups or started to read about something and tell your friends about it would be helpful.
Going on trips will bring you to a place where something in the field of Archeology will open up. But first go on tours for a short time. Find jobs where you can learn about different places. Even if you were to work in a museum and be a guide and learn about history and different places, it will bring you to what you wanted to experience again in Archeology.
You also have a talent for writing. Whether you write poetry, or make up stories, or write about places that you visit, you have the ability to go in that direction.

Questions About My Son’s Future
This post answers questions from a reader named, Kristi, who’d like insight into her son’s future. My son will be graduating high school in the next few months and he seems to be lacking motivation when it comes to college and planning his next steps. College was always an option, but due to his lack of interest he won’t qualify for tuition assistance. We’re not sure this even concerns him. He’s done nothing to prepare for college, he hasn’t applied to any schools yet, and he has a low-wage part-time job while he’s in high school. The Council says it’s not that your son isn’t motivated. He’s trying to work within himself and spirit to find exactly what path he wants to take in this particular lifetime.
Kristi says no matter what his father and I do to help him prepare for his next steps in life, he seems uninterested. He’s almost 18 years old so we try to step back and encourage him to take his own actions rather than us doing things for him. What can his father and I do to help him in the next phase of his life?
The Council says recently what’s coming into play for your son is his wish, before coming into this reality, to travel a lot and meet different people. Because your son is one of the Indigo children, school isn’t a particular interest for him and he’d like to get started with whatever it is he’s supposed to do. Like many Indigos, right now he doesn’t know what that is yet.
If possible, take him on a road trip – someplace you can all talk about and be interested in discovering where it is and what it’s like to be there. Then we’d suggest you offer one year of schooling to give him some experience with college. After that we see lots of traveling is wanted. Eventually there’s a trip to different places in Europe. He has an affinity for Italy based on other lifetimes.
Kristi asks, what direction do you see his future heading? Do you see him going to college? The Council says college is still up in the air for him for what he’s creating. That’s why it would be helpful to take him on a trip and talk to him about school. Let him know after the first year he can continue, or perhaps take a longer trip, maybe to Italy and see Rome, Naples, and Tuscany.
In another past life that’s attached to his current life he was one of the Essenes that were alive around the time of Jesus. He lived in the mountains. His responsibility was to live in secret and not let anyone know who he was because many of the Essenes were in danger at that time. He’d travel back and forth with messages, going to foreign places to see what was happening, what was being learned, and what was being planned. Then he’d come back to the hidden inner group of the Essenes and report what he’s learned. In that life there was a lot of travel, a lot of moving around, and a lot of learning. This is also touching on his current life where travel would be good for him and a way to learn.
Kristi asks if we should be concerned about anything? The Council says the only thing to be concerned about is if you get in your son’s way. Let him come to the ideas of what he wants and what he’s interested in, and support that in any way you can. We see if you do support him and talk to him about many things that happen in this world, of government and how it works, of how people get their information, what they believe, and how it’s passed on, bringing him to different places, even if it’s not that far from where you live, that will motivate him. That will help him connect to those past lives, even if it’s unconsciously, and bring him to what he wants to take from those lives and use in his current life. His direction will come from within him.

What is My Life Purpose?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Lisa, after she read our post, Feeling Like I Want to Go Home Even When I Am Home. Lisa says she’s also had a strong longing to go home recently. She’s a strong empath and sometimes the emotion and struggle that people feel during this Covid pandemic leave her blindsided.
Lisa says she had a near-death experience when she was 17 years old, but I decided to fight to come back into her physical body. Since then I’ve always felt everything in my life is temporary. I find it difficult to commit to relationships or jobs. The Council says it wasn’t so much of a fight as a decision to come back. They add that everything in everyone’s life is really temporary and this is fear you’re picking up from other places.
When you’re an empath and you don’t meditate and work within the light to protect yourself, you’ll pick up so many feelings that aren’t your own. As a result you cut yourself off from connections to others, jobs, family, and there’s a feeling of being lost. It’s very important for empaths to meditate, to walk in nature and go barefoot when possible, to sit under trees, to have a garden or have plants in your home. Plants will ground you and make you more capable of handling what goes on around you.
Empaths are so wide open that you can go into a room and feel very uncomfortable. You might think there’s something wrong with you and that you’re not very sociable. There’s an uncomfortable feeling you’re not aware of that you’re picking up from people in that room. If someone is angry or not feeling well, you’ll pick up all these emotions. If there are ten people in a room, you’ll pick up ten different feelings. You won’t realize it consciously, but there’s a feeling of not being yourself and wanting to withdraw. Many empaths need a lot of time for themselves and to be by themselves.
When you get out of bed each morning try imagining there’s beautiful white light coming from spirit and wrap it around you like you’re in a cocoon of white light. This will protect you from picking up all these unwanted feelings from other people. You can walk down the street and be fine and then all of a sudden you’re feeling angry or in a bad mood because you’ve passed by someone on the street and you’ve picked up their feelings. If you’re sitting and talking to someone you need to learn how to say to yourself that you’re going to consciously check out where their emotions are at. Do they really mean what they’re saying? Are they in a good place or not? What is their intention? You can do this when you want to tune in to other people’s feelings, but you need to learn how to protect yourself in order to work with these feelings.
Lisa says she’s 44 years old and worried she’ll never fulfill the reason she came back into her body from the NDE all those years ago. The Council says you came back to learn how to be in this reality, to learn about other people and how they feel. When you know how people really feel you can talk to them and help them get to a better place without their necessarily realizing this is what you’re doing. This is one of the things you wanted to do in this lifetime, to help people feel better, but you have to put yourself in a better place before you can do this.
Lisa says a friend has reassured her that she’s a loving and warm person that makes a difference to people in her life and this might be all she’s here to do. The Council says that by saying this is all you’re here to do, you’ve got no idea the job you’ve signed up for. This is a wonderful path you’ve chosen. If you just go around in your lifetime and help people feel better, you’ve accomplished more than you can imagine. And when you return to spirit we’ll show you what you accomplished.

How Do I Find My Way Home in My Recurring Dreams?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Juan, who’s disturbed by The Council’s reference to evil persons acting a role and us being responsible for our misfortunes as learning paths.
The Council asks Juan who he believes should be blamed for his misfortunes. There is no one else who creates in your reality. When you create misfortunes it’s what you’re allowing yourself to focus on. It’s what you’ve allowed to be around you in this reality so you can change it, so you can see it, and bring peace, which is very much in need right now in your reality.
Evil people have agreed to come in to play the part of evil, difficult, and angry people that stir up others if the others allow this to happen. These people that you consider evil are still spirits. They aren’t what you think of as horrible. They’re playing a role that everyone concerned has agreed to.
There’s no reason to be disturbed about wars or evil because it doesn’t really exist in spirit. It’s just something that’s created in the moment to see how you want to handle it. It was created to see if you can remember who you are as spirit. Your role in coming forward was always to bring understanding and love, and change the direction of this evil into something better.
When you’re disturbed about evil people, you’re only being upset about what you’ve decided to learn about, even if you’re not one of these so-called evil people. If you know people you consider evil, or people who want war, or cause discord among each other, when you see this how do you handle it? Are you pulled into this discord? Do you stand your ground and speak only of love and ways to calm others down?
There are many people in your reality that can be brought into a terrible place of forgetting who they are and they look to harm each other. When this goes on, what do you learn from it? Can you send light and love to these groups or individuals that aren’t remembering that all is peaceful? They aren’t bad. They’re just playing the part you’ve all agreed to.
Juan says for a long time he’s had lots of dreams of being absolutely lost. I see myself in strange places trying to find my way home. I walk, drive, go over bridges, ride buses, talk to people, and never get anywhere. I don’t know where I am. My firm desire is to find my way home, but I don’t know where my home is. These dreams last for some time while I search and end when I wake up feeling dissatisfied.
The Council says these dreams of being lost are you astral projecting in the sleeping state to other places you’ve been to before, or perhaps meeting up with people you’ve known in other lifetimes. You want to go home, but the home you’re looking for is the home of spirit. Many people are going through the same process at this time. You want to go back into spirit where you remember there’s only love. You want that feeling again. You want to feel the strength, the love, the support of when you’re in spirit, and to know that everything is truly all right no matter what. You’re feeling frustrated is because you want to go home to spirit, but you’ve got things to do in this lifetime and it’s not your time to go home.
You can meditate on what life in spirit would be like, what would it look like, what would it feel like? What would it feel like being in a place where there’s only love and happiness. The joy is overwhelming. In your meditations we ask you to try and reach for that. When you meditate and you connect to your higher self, you will have the feeling of absolute love of being in spirit.

Why Was I Chosen to Have My Four Beautiful Children?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Sandra, who has two sons and two daughters. In the past three weeks she’s met two beautiful people that came into her life unexpectedly. Both are from different walks of life and don’t know each other. They’ve both told me my children are on this Earth for a reason. The Council responds that we’re all here for a reason, and the main reason is just to have fun, experience what we wish to experience, and bring love into this reality.
Sandra says these two people have told her that her children are Star Seeds and will be part of the up-and-coming war. The Council says there’s a great fascination right now in our reality and many beings want to know where they’re from, what planet, what star, and are they Star Seeds. In reality, The Council emphasizes, we’re all Star Seeds. We’ve had experiences on other planes of existence. We’ve gone from one reality to another and one planet to another.
Sandra says she’d love to know where her children come from and why I was chosen to carry these beautiful souls? The Council says you agreed to bring in these beautiful souls rather than being chosen, to have the experience of being with them, loving them, teaching them to love, and seeing the directions they want to go in.
You agreed before coming into this reality that the lessons and experiences you all wanted agree with one another. You were allowed to do this because this is what you asked for and the souls of your children agreed. The souls of your children liked the ideas you have and what you want to learn we want to learn. We’ll go through our stuff, you’ll go through your stuff and we’ll see what happens.
You and your children have been in the Pleiades, you’ve been Arcturians, and you did a lot of work on Orion. The majority of your work was to go from place to place passing on the information these other realities are experiencing, both positive and negative. You taught many people. You were on councils to help each place come up with laws to live by, always bringing peace. Among what’s known as the Grey People there was lots of aggression, and you were on councils to protect that reality and work with others to keep that reality peaceful.
Your children will eventually have a lot of people around them and a lot of friends. They’ll be very happy and peace-loving.
The Council doesn’t see any up-and-coming war that’s planned. As you bring your thoughts and focus into every reality, you’ll create peace and you’ll create war. War is never wanted and The Council doesn’t see it for the reality you are currently in.
The choices you make, the thoughts you think, your intentions, and how you treat each other will determine the reality your experience. On a day-to-day basis always look for the love. Always put out kindness. Always look to help others that need help. These are some of the best things you can do in your current reality.

How Can We Send Part of Our Spiritual Self into a Life We’ve Already Created and Create a New Person in That Life?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Tildy, who read our post, How Can We Create a New Lifetime in the Past? and is looking for clarification about what The Council means when they say, you can send another part of your spiritual self into a life you’ve already created and create another person.
The Council asks Tildy to imagine you’re a big ball of light. This is you in spirit, and with all the rays that come out of this ball you create individual lifetimes. You send a ray out to be in this particular life. You send another ray out to be in a lifetime in the 1800s. You send a ray out to be in a lifetime in Roman times. And you send another ray out to be in a lifetime in China. It’s small parts of you that want to create another lifetime, but who you are is still that big ball of light.
You’re mainly this big ball of light and you allow little parts of who you are to come into a reality and create. This is what we all do. This is what we want. Let’s create. Let’s see what we can do. Let’s have some fun. This is how you’re in many different lifetimes at the same time, but you’re still that ball of light and you only send the little parts of you out to play with.
Bob asks The Council why we can’t see all the lives we’re creating at the same time. The Council says it would be too much for your mind to see and remember all these lifetimes and to keep track of what’s going on in each lifetime. You can read about past life regression. You can have a past life regression and maybe find out about one or two lives, but our purpose here isn’t to be aware of all of them. Our purpose is to function and focus on our present life. But the whole part of you, your higher self, that ball of light, knows everything that’s going on in each lifetime.
Bob says it confusing how we can create a lifetime that we experience as current and simultaneously we can create a lifetime that’s taking place in ancient Rome, for example. The Council says this is another part of you that you send out to create another lifetime.
You can create a lifetime where you’re married to someone and you have children and friends, and then the higher part of you can decide that you can create that lifetime differently. In your new life you’re not married to the same person. Instead you’re married to the spirit that’s one of your children in you your current life and you’d like to experience that. How would that be?
You are the creator of all your lives. When you do this, little parts of the other person also agree to it. They agree to be your husband, or your wife, or your child. All spirits are these wonderful balls of light that send out little parts of themselves to be in whatever you want to create.
Bob asks where in physical space do these other lifetimes exist? The Council says it’s not in physical space. It’s vibrationally out there and the part of you that experiences an individual lifetime experiences it as if you are physical, but it’s your energy, your light that you’ve sent out. It’s not like this life is in America and another life is in Africa. You create what you want it to be, but it’s out there vibrationally.
Tildy asks if this means we now relive this past life with an additional person involved? The Council answers, yes. Tildy goes on to ask if this is the case, what are the ways this new person is created? The Council says this new person is created the way you create them. This is your reality. Someone in your reality isn’t creating for you. They’re not creating how you live this life. You create it. The other spirit will agree to whatever you create. You are the creator.
Tildy says it sounds like a lot of new agreements have to be made with existing people who would be that person’s family and acquaintances. The Council says it wouldn’t be existing people. It would be another part of that person. The original life doesn’t go anywhere. You’re still experiencing that life with the spirits who’ve agreed to go through that life with you. When you create another life it doesn’t take away from the first life. It’s a whole new life with new people, or maybe even the same people. It’s whatever is agreed upon by all spirits involved. All these lives are going on at the same time.
Tildy asks if you have to find a way to insert new people to be that person’s parents? The Council says this is something that needs to be agreed upon. What you want and what other spirits come in and agree to. So if you want a certain person to have different parents, you’ll create that and other spirits will agree to play that role.
Tildy says this can get really complicated. The Council says it sounds that way in your current understanding of how your reality works, but it’s very easy to create.

What’s My Life Purpose Now That My Husband Has Passed?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Grieving Widow, after she read our post, Why Did My Partner Crossover Sooner Than Expected? She says I also have similar questions. My husband passed suddenly in a car accident and I’m unable to accept it. I’m constantly trying to connect with him and continue our relationship.
The Council asks Grieving Widow what she’d need to accept her husband’s death. You know he’s no longer in your physical reality, but he’s here in spirit. There are ways you can connect with him through meditation or asking for a connection in your dreams. You can ask for little signs he’s around that would give you the comfort he’s really gone nowhere. He’s still part of your life, being around you, seeing what you do. He left because it was his wish and his time to finish this lifetime. It was to give you a chance to explore more of who you are and what you want moving forward.
Grieving Widow says she doesn’t want to be here without her husband and asks The Council what is her purpose here without him? The Council says to find out who you are. What would make you happy? What ideas did you have while your husband was still here about things you wanted to do, but never had the chance? Now is the time to move forward and do these things.
Grieving Widow says we have three sons and my relationship with my oldest isn’t good. How can I help him with his life lessons and be the best mother to all my sons when I can’t even find joy in anything anymore?
The Council asks Grieving Widow if she’s saying she doesn’t find joy with her children? Do you focus at all on how to be with them, be part of their lives, and invite them into your life to give you some sort of comfort? Communication is needed here. There’s a coming together to bring you closer together.
What you need to remember is that your children will see how you’re carrying on now that your husband has passed on into spirit. How do you handle this? Do you show them that you’re aware your husband is now in the spirit world, and that you know at some point you’ll all go back into spirit, and that your husband is helping all of you from spirit? Do you talk to your children and uplift them in this moment?
The loss of a husband is traumatic, but your children have lost their father. Do you focus on that? This is a way for you to learn to be of service to others, and at this point it’s your children that need you. How will you be of service? The Council reiterates that much more communication is needed.
Grieving Widow says, I don’t believe I chose to be without my husband and I’m struggling to find a purpose to stay in this life. Do I have a purpose to remain here? The Council assures Grieving Widow that you did plan in spirit with your husband that he would pass. Your purpose, as we mentioned before, is to find out more about yourself and what you would like. What are your interests? Hold your children together. Bring your family closer. Be of service to others.
The Council understands in the human form this is a very difficult time for you. Give yourself more love by accepting you are sad at this moment, accepting this is a grieving time, accept all of that, but somewhere within that make time to help others through what they’re going through.
Grieving Widow says, I feel my sons will learn their life lessons better if I’m not here because I feel I hinder them. The Council reminds Grieving Widow that she is part of her children’s life lessons and they are very aware of how you speak and how you act. Remember that the way you do this, you are adding to their lessons and showing your children how to be and how not to be. They need you in their lives for many more reasons. Be aware of your behavior and your communication. This is part of what they agreed to learn and you have all agreed to this.
The Council understands Grieving Widow’s feeling that she’s hindering her children, but because you’ve all agreed to your husband’s passing, you don’t hinder them. And if you feel you hinder them now, how do you change that? If you can learn how to meditate and how to find things to be grateful for it will change your vibration and help you through this time.

What Path Should I Pursue This Lifetime?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Cristiana, who needs some guidance on which path she should pursue in this lifetime. I have lots of skills and interests and therefore many options, or so I think. I’m also very scatterbrained and feel my life is very fragmented in a kaleidoscopic kind of way.
The Council says this kaleidoscope effect is because you brought talents into your current life that you had from other lifetimes. What you brought in to explore this time was an interest in writing, painting, dancing, and the healing arts, whether it be mainstream healing or alternative healing.
Because you brought in so many interests, as your life progresses you’d see which interest drew you to it. Any of these fields would be good for you to start playing around in. You’ve done all of these interests in other lifetimes and were very good at them. If you moved forward with any of these in this lifetime you’d be very successful and enjoy it.
Cristiana says: Which direction should I channel my energy and focus into? For a long time I’ve been dreaming about getting in touch with my artistic side, but it’s not my only calling. I feel pulled toward many activities. I wonder if artistic expression is something I should take seriously, or if it’s just meant to be a hobby. Is there some work from past lives I’m supposed to pursue?
The Council says there’s nothing you’re supposed to pursue. You wanted the choice to do many things that you enjoy. You may want to experience one or all of the interests you’ve brought into this life. Go with whatever you feel drawn to. You also had a great interest in running and exercising.
Start slowly and go into each interest following your feelings. After you done it for a while you may love it, or had enough of it and then you can move on. Now you know what you’ve brought in to explore in this life.

How Can I Help This Man With His Commitment Issues?
This post answers a question for The Council from a reader named, Aquarius, who has a follow-up question to the ones we answered in our post, Why Has the Man in My Life Become So Distant? She says thank you for providing me with some clarity on this situation. Can you tell me how I can help this man with his commitment issues?
The Council says because this man is afraid to commit to an intimate relationship at this time, giving him room right now is the best thing you can do. If you try getting closer to this man at this time and push the relationship, this will go in the opposite way of what he needs. Be more of a friend right now and make the relationship as free as you can. Let this man come and go. When he does come, be there and enjoy the relationship for the way it is.
When there’s no pressure to take the relationship further and there’s just a lovely time getting together, in time this will help his commitment issue between the two of you disappear. Right now the best thing to do is to be friendly and give this man the freedom that no one is pushing him into a corner. Without going too deeply into what’s coming up for this man, these commitment issues are something he’s gone through in another lifetime.
Don’t force this relationship. Be loving. Be fun. Be open. When this man feels the want, not the need, to be around you, the relationship can begin to change.
If Aquarius has a desire to explore other relationships while she’s waiting for this man to work through his commitment issues, it’s up to her. Isn’t it wonderful that the choice is hers to decide how she wants to handle this situation? Do you want to see other people while you’re working on this relationship with this man? Or do you want to just concentrate on this man? This is why you’re the creator and you have the freedom and the choice, moment to moment, to make any choice you want. And if you don’t like the choice you make, you can make another choice.
Listen to the entire audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Aquarius and the rest of us and let us know what you feel about it, or ask The Council your own question in a comment box that appears at the bottom of most of our blog pages.

Why Do I Feel This Connection to a Man I Work With?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Loving Star, who was introduced to a man 10 years ago and from the moment I met him I felt a connection on a deeper level. Even though I feel his affection for me, I didn’t show my own affection because I was surprised by the connection itself. Why do I feel this connection?
The Council says this connection is from a lifetime where this man was your father. During most of that life he was caring for you and you had your father up on a pedestal. When you were ready to marry and leave your father it was difficult for him to let you go. In your current lifetime there was a pre-birth spiritual agreement to come back and care for each other again like you did in that former life.
In your current life do you notice the way this man cares? Do you notice if he’s there to guide you in different ways? Does he help you when there’s a problem? Does he help you get ahead? It’s that fatherly feeling that’s coming through in your current life, even though this time around the two of you aren’t father and daughter.
Loving Star says, the reason I’m asking is I started working in his law firm and I feel our connection is much stronger than before. I feel like we’re on a similar wave, but can’t explain why. I feel like this connection is mutual. Why did we meet and what did we agree on as spirits when we entered this life?
You worked for your father in this past life. He ran a bar and you served drinks and food and cleaned up. You brought this aspect of your past life into your current reality where you work for this man again. You’re on the same path as before. Working with this man should make you feel very comfortable.
Loving Star says, I see this man cares about me and helps guide me in my career. Is that why we met? The Council says, yes. Loving Star asks, what other gifts can we pass on to each other? The Council says even though the two of you don’t share a romantic pre-birth plan, there was a plan to be in each other’s lives, to be comfortable with each other, and to help each other. That closeness was wanted. You both wanted to be together again and not leave each other like you did in the past life when you were his daughter and got married. What was spoken about in spirit before the two of you came into this life was that you’d always sort of know where the other person was, and that was enough. That was the comfort that was needed.
Loving Star asks if there’s anything important I should know about us. For example, did we agree that a romantic relationship will develop between us? The Council tells Loving Star you didn’t plan for a romantic relationship, but life always comes along and gets in the way and gives you additional experiences. If a romantic relationship is something you both feel you want and you both think about this constantly, you’ll create this, and that’s fine. A romantic relationship wasn’t something you planned for, but you can create it.

How Can I Get Unstuck on My Divinely Inspired Project?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Taylor, who’s been working on a divinely guided project for a few months, but the project is stagnating. She’s still working towards this goal, but feels like she’s hit a block and she asks The Council where her focus and efforts need to be right now, and if there’s anything that needs to be addressed before she can move forward.
The Council says coming into this reality Taylor wanted to feel her own power. You wanted to feel you were connected to source and you could make wise decisions. Does your path make you feel good? Ask yourself if you get excited about what you’re trying to create now? In your wildest dreams, what would you add to your project?
Go into every detail of your project and take away what needs to be taken away. Add to your project what needs to be added. Always ask yourself if your plans are finished. Do you really like what you’ve created? Or is this just the beginning and do I want my project to bring me more? Do I want my project to change and am I open to that change?
The best thing you can do right now is to start asking yourself these questions. The answers are already within you, but you need to focus. Whether it’s meditation or sitting quietly, you need to focus and ask yourself these questions.
Writing is good for you. Perhaps you can sit at a computer or sit with paper and write a question about where you’re trying to go with this project, and then wait. Think about this question. Send it out to the universe. What kind of ideas come into your head? These ideas don’t need to make sense at first. Ask who you’d like to be working with on this new idea that’s coming to you.
Continuously ask yourself where you want to go and what do you want to do? Is there more than one thing that I want to do? That would be wonderful. Ask these questions with each topic you’re thinking about working on and bring your focus with the ideas into your conscious mind so you can allow yourself to make the right decisions.
This project is your purpose and it’s what you wanted to experience. You wanted to be creative. You wanted to have many ideas and you wanted to know how you could make decisions. Sit quietly and get these answers. When you get these answers and you move forward, you’ll feel that powerful feeling that you wished to have in your current lifetime.

Can a New Soul Come into a Body After a Failed Suicide Attempt?
This post answers a question for The Council from a reader named, Ashtin, who wants to know if someone tried to commit suicide and lived, and doctors admitted it was a miracle, but the person doesn’t act the way they used to, does this mean a new soul has come in as a host for that body?
The Council says sometimes when a spirit tries to create their suicide they create a physical condition where there’s no memory of things from the past even though the same soul is still inhabiting the body.
Sometimes someone will try to commit suicide, or dies momentarily from a heart attack or a stroke, and is then brought back to life and is totally different, and no one understands why. This happens because another spirit has come into this body to take over and finish the lessons the original soul had planned.
The Council says this happens quite a bit and some people call this new spirit a walk-in. The lessons that needed to be learned by the family and friends and relationships around this spirit that decided continuing life is just too much are so important that another soul will jump in and take that soul’s place. This way all the souls associated with this person can continue their lessons.
So while they act very differently, and there’s no memory, and sometimes there’s a loss of emotion, or a very sad and depressed person can suddenly become filled with joy and be outgoing, it’s because there are the lessons of all the people concerned that must be finished.
The Council says in Ashtin’s example another soul did come in to replace the original soul, but what’s going on here is the original soul in that body is helping the walk-in. The essence of the original soul is still guiding the new soul in whatever is supposed to be happening. The original soul that left the body didn’t leave completely. In this case the new soul is helping the old soul. It’s still part of this reality in order to help itself learn things in a less dramatic way where it needs to feel the emotion and go through things. This is one soul helping another soul.
The second soul wouldn’t have any memory of things that happened to the original soul until the two souls agreed that some memory should come into play according to what lesson is to be learned. Sometimes the new soul can just take over and finish out the life the way it chooses and the first soul would learn from that experience. It’s what these two souls have agreed upon.
This is an example of how we support one another from the spirit world, helping the spirits that are still in their human bodies, and we all grow together.
Listen to the entire 6-minute session audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Ashtin and the rest of us and let us know what you feel about it, or ask The Council your own question.
In the recording we refer to Ashtin as a male, but since we recorded this session we’ve learned Ashtin can be a man’s or woman’s name. Our apologies to Ashtin if we got this wrong.

How Can I Help My Children?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, StrugglingMom, after she read our post, Is My Life Purpose to Save My Husband from Himself? StrugglingMom says, this post sparked a question about whether my purpose is to help my children, especially my oldest son, and to ask how I can do that.
The Council says your life purpose is all about you, not about saving other people. When you agreed to have these spirits come into this world through you, you agreed to allow them to come in to create the kind of reality they want. They already have in mind the lessons they want to learn, the challenges they want to work through, and if they want to be of help to other people. This is all set up within that spirit. Your purpose is to allow these spirits to come in and then let go and watch what they’re creating.
If there’s a way you can guide them to make their way a little easier, this is helpful, but your purpose isn’t to save your children from whatever they go through or to change whatever you think they’re going through. Your purpose is to give your children love and support in the gentlest way you know.
StrugglingMom asks, do my children and I share any past lives or lessons to learn because we have a difficult relationship and I’m struggling to be the mother my children need. The Council says one of the lessons here is about abandonment, which is what you and your oldest son experienced in another lifetime. In your current life you agreed to be together and work with each other through the difficult times you’re experiencing and not to abandon each other.
Look at what your oldest son is going through and find a way to have discussions with him. Give him guidance on how you think there might be an easier way to go through what he’s experiencing. Discuss what you think and the challenges you’ve gone through and how you worked through these challenges. It’s by your example and by teaching your son what you did to get through your experiences that give him a basis for how to work through his own stuff.
A lot of these children that are difficult and don’t follow rules are very advanced and want to grow up and make their own rules and change things. And they want to do this quickly. Sometimes these children are called Indigo Children because they know they have lots to do in their future, but they’re confused right now with the challenge of growing up under their parent’s rules.
You don’t need to let your son do whatever he wants if you believe it’s unsafe or mean. You can explain another way he can accomplish what he wants. The more discussion you have with your son, the better it will be. Discussion can help things turn around quickly. And by discussion we mean talking about each other and to each other, but not in a way your son is likely to experience as nagging.
Your purpose with your son is to listen to him, be supportive, and not get to the point where you’re so upset you do nothing and conversation stops. This is a form of abandonment. Your son wanted to learn how to be himself, whatever he chose to be in this life. No matter how he chose to be, you would be allowing and accepting, guiding him gently another way, not through punishment or abandonment, but through listening and relating back and forth.
The Council says StrugglingMom and her oldest son shared a past life together as brothers who had no family and they both felt abandoned. In his current lifetime your son wants to work through his abandonment issues and he wanted to have parents that were there to guide him.
StrugglingMom says, I don’t know whether to push him or just let him fail when he refuses to go to school or do schoolwork. Do I punish him and force control? Or do I just let him be, which makes me feel guilty because I feel like I’m taking the easy way out and not being his mother?
The Council says StrugglingMom’s guilt serves no purpose. As a parent you realize there are school requirements that need to be met. As your son moves through school even though he’s not interested in it, discuss with him why it must be done. When he goes to school or does his schoolwork you should praise him and this will give him more motivation to continue.
If your son’s path is difficult because this is what he’s creating, and if he fails and you know in good conscience that you’ve tried to put him on a path you feel has advantages, then his wanting to fail is part of what his spirit wants to experience. Your role is to do what you can as a parent to explain how your son’s education is something he needs to do to improve himself for when he grows up. If you can do this then you’re not abandoning him. If you throw your hands up and say I give up, and your son fails, your son will experience abandonment again. What your son hopes for, no matter what, is you don’t abandon him.
You can help your son heal his abandonment issues through patience and communication, and talking about yourself and what you’ve gone through. Talk about how it’s difficult to see your son not trying. And talking about how you’ll be there no matter what road he picks, whether he tries or whether he fails This will help.
Once your son understands you’re there for him no matter whether he succeeds or fails, instead of having to continue going through the lesson of abandonment, that lesson will be changed because you’re letting your son be the way he needs to be. In accepting and allowing your son, you also allow his lessons to change and allow him to heal.
By StrugglingMom agreeing to be part of these abandonment issues, if her son fails, how will this affect her? What does that bring up for her? There are also abandonment issues StugglingMom wants to learn about. StrugglingMom and her oldest son are handling abandonment in different ways. It’s like different ends of the same stick. The son at one end doesn’t want to be abandoned even though it’s a difficult situation. He wants to see what his mother will do.
On the other side of the stick is StrugglingMom. She doesn’t want to throw her hands up and give up, but at times she feels like it’s no use. Does she give up? Does she abandon her son? Both are facing issues of abandonment and they’re trying to help each other through these issues.
The Council says one of the hardest parts of being a parent is to allow these spirits to come in and then feel responsible for how their child creates its life. You are supposed to bring the child in and then allow it to be whatever it needs to be, and to be there for your child as they go through whatever issues they’re trying to work through.

Feeling Guilty Over My Mother’s Recent Passing
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Darla, whose mother recently transitioned to spirit with Alzheimer’s Disease. Darla cared for her mother at home up until the last two weeks of her life when she was moved to an assisted living facility. She says the disease left my mother unable to eat or drink, but her memory was intact and she was able to talk to me almost until the very end.
The Council asks Darla if she’s able to appreciate what she’s gone through and that you offered to care for your mother during a time that was so difficult for you?
Darla knows her mother is at peace now, but she suffered tremendously the last few months, often lying on the floor crying in pain. I felt helpless as far as helping my mother get better and it was torture seeing her suffer.
The Council says many people come into this reality to learn about suffering, or to teach someone else about it. Sometimes as they go through this suffering they might tell you that they know you can help them, but you’re not doing it. This is just to bring the lesson of suffering further into your reality so you can feel the guilt, and learn there’s no purpose for it except to help you grow in another direction.
Seeing your mother suffer and knowing it was difficult for you, what did you experience from this? Instead of feeling guilty that maybe you haven’t done enough, focus on what you did do. This is very important for you.
Darla still feels the heavy weight of guilt in her heart as she chose to honor her mother’s wishes to die without any artificial means of sustaining her life. And The Council asks, why would you feel guilty when you’re doing exactly what your mother wanted?
Sometimes that feeling of not doing enough or trying to stop another person’s suffering is because you don’t understand the full experience of what’s going on here with soul growth and soul experiences. So you learn from the suffering.
Before you came into this reality from spirit you both agreed to experience your mother’s difficult passing. You did exactly what was supposed to be done by having your mother go through her life and ending her life the way she wanted. This was to push you forward so you can learn to experience the love you showed her rather than the guilt.
We’re all here to bring love into every situation. The love you showed by being able to stay and be a part of her passing, and help where you were able, and let your mother have her way and make her transition the way she wanted, shows you are a brave soul for going through what you’ve chosen to do.
This is what you wanted to learn. This was your mother’s way of teaching you to realize who you really are. You are both spirits who agreed to go through this difficult passing, and this would give you the opportunity to bring love into this reality. Take your thoughts and change what you focus on and look at all you’ve done.
By learning to let go of the guilt, your mother, who’s in spirit now, will be overjoyed to know that what you had planned had worked. You wanted to bring love into yourself and feel good about yourself. Realize you helped your mother, who wanted to experience this difficult passing and she wanted to see how the people around her would handle this situation. Your mother wanted to teach you to go through this challenge and when it’s over to realize what a great human being you are to go through this so beautifully.
The Council says they feel the last two days of your mother’s life she was more back in spirit than in physical reality. A lot of what you saw your mother going through during this time wasn’t fully experienced by her because she was already with us.
Darla asks if her mother forgives her for not being able to help her. The Council says this is where you’re wrong. There is nothing you need forgiveness for. Your mother loves you so much and she’s so proud you’ve fulfilled what you both wanted. Your mother has a wonderful feeling in spirit that you were both able to pull off her passing the way she wanted it.
Darla asks if her relationship issues with her mother from past lives are resolved. The Council says there’s more to come. This particular challenge is something that both of you wanted to experience to help each other grow in your current lifetime. There will be future lifetimes you’ll share with your mother and work through additional relationship issues.
The Council applauds Darla for what she’s gone through and how she’s handled it and followed what you both planned to the tee.
The Council closes by thanking Cynthia and Bob for having the ability to take their information and have so many people be open to it, and get understanding from it, and get relief from what another spirit has gone through.

Why Has the Man in My Life Become So Distant?
This post answers questions from a reader named, Confused Aquarius, who says the man in her life has become distant and he’s not the same man anymore.
The Council says it’s not this man’s intention to hurt you. There are other issues he needs to go through. One of the issues affecting him from past lives that he’s trying to work out is the issue of commitment. There’s a fear of commitment because of what he’s experienced in other lifetimes. He wants closeness and finds it, but fear enters into it and there’s a pulling away. His pulling away isn’t about you or something you’ve done to cause this. You volunteered in spirit to come into this lifetime and help this man learn about his fear of commitment.
Confused Aquarius says this man has gone from one extreme to another and he’s left me so confused. The Council advises Confused Aquarius to forget the confusion. You’ve entered into a relationship with this man to help him grow and to figure out what you’ve learned. What was the relationship like? What parts of it do you want to continue? What parts of this relationship do you not want to create again? You are both helping each other to grow.
Confused Aquarius says, just when my walls came down, he’s changed. He says he has a lot going on, but I can’t help but feel shut out of his life. He’s very intuitive and I feel he was drawn to me because we shared a past life. The Council says he was drawn to you because of a very strong agreement that you made in spirit. He wanted to face this challenge, learn from it, and not have to experience it again. And this makes the attraction between the two of you possible.
Confused Aquarius asks if there’s anything The Council can tell her about the past lives she’s shared with this man so she can better understand their meeting in the current life. She’s very confused why he entered her life in the first place. The Council says the challenges this man is facing, including the big one about commitment, weren’t created in another lifetime that you shared, but it’s something he’s experienced in many lifetimes. Because you know of each other from past lives, you agreed to help him, and you also agreed you would learn from this relationship.
The Council says it was planned that Confused Aquarius and this man would ultimately overcome these commitment challenges, but everyday life gets in the way. They say we’ll see what they create and where they take this relationship.

Am I On Earth Longer Than Expected to Help With the Dimensional Shift?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Marie, who read our post, Is My Son a Starseed? She says The Council’s answer is a great explanation of the Starseed concept we hear so much about. I’m glad you mention it’s not just for people born after a certain time. I’m 67 years old, but my awakening has been taking place over the last 10 years.
The Council says it’s wonderful that you believe this without blindly following rules and timelines that are made up about when these Starseeds should come into this reality. There were many Starseeds here on Earth throughout its existence before anyone knew about these people.
Marie asks if it’s possible that some of us contracted to live on Earth for a shorter period of time in order to help with a dimensional shift, but because it’s taking longer than expected we are here longer? The Council agrees the dimensional shift is taking much longer than most people expected, but you contracted to come into this reality while this shift of enlightenment is taking place and there wasn’t any time limit, and this is fine.
Many spirits that came to Earth thinking it would be fun to come here and help prepare for this shift in awareness always knew the planet as a whole would advance when it’s ready. When we’re in spirit we think we can handle this shift and get it done, but as our reality develops it becomes more interesting and other things come into play. Some spirits have decided to stay and help with this shift. Others have decided they were here for part of this shift in awareness that is happening, we’ll go back to spirit, and then come back to Earth at a future date.
The Council says the amount of time Marie contracted to be here on Earth has to do with what that personality is experiencing as a human being in this lifetime. It’s more than what the Starseed part of her recognizes she planned to do. Part of the Starseed knows it’s coming to Earth and it will open up and remember its mission. But before that can happen this Starseed is living a human day-to-day life and there are other factors that determine how long you’ll stay on Earth. Did you accomplish what you wanted in this reality as a human being? There are many different ways to look at this.
Marie contracted to come to Earth to help with this dimensional shift, but as a human being, she is also here to learn there are day-to-day issues, other lessons, challenges, and happiness that she wanted to experience. The Council repeats that they don’t see Marie contracted to be on Earth for a shorter period of time to help with the dimensional shift, and she’s not here longer because this shift is taking longer.
The Council closes by thanking Cynthia and Bob for our ability to take their information and have so many people be open to it, and get understanding from it, and get relief from what another spirit has gone through.

What Is My Family’s Purpose In This Lifetime?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Sarah, who asked The Council a few years ago about an abortion she was thinking of having and if the soul of the unborn fetus would return to her in a future pregnancy. She had her daughter in October 2020 and she thinks it’s the same soul and The Council agrees with her.
The Council says this birth will produce a very interesting life. If you’re not practicing the arts yet, you will. Your daughter needs to be taught music, dancing, and art from an early age. You, your husband, and your daughter should all find interest in the arts because you’ve done this in other lifetimes.
Eventually you’ll find a way to heal with music. You’ve all had separate lives as well as lives together where you filled the need to feel loved and feel important through the arts. In your current lifetime you’ve come together to develop all of this and share it with each other. Your daughter should be exposed to the arts and you and your husband should do this also.
The Council says while practicing the arts it’s a good idea to discuss with each other how you feel and how you got the idea to create what you are creating. This will open you to more creativity within each of you.
Sarah says she’s no longer finding purpose in her current profession and she’s feeling the pull of something much larger and far-reaching. The Council says the pull is to get started on an artistic path. When you find fulfillment in this, your current job won’t have such a negative feeling because you’ll allow this new path to be accepted and come in.
Sarah feels she and her husband have lived many lives together and he and I are supposed to do whatever this big thing is together. The Council agrees with Sarah about her past lives with her husband. This big purpose all three of you are supposed to do together was agreed upon in spirit before you were born and this is where your focus should be right now.
Sarah says she’s experienced severe arthritis for the last two years and I’m hoping this experience has run its course and taught me what it needed to. I’m curious if it has anything to do with what’s ahead.
The Council says in a past life in the early 1800s you had a form of arthritis where your fingers were crooked and you were unable to do much with your hands. In that life you always wished to find a way to heal this condition and experience it in a way that wasn’t so difficult.
In your current life, you’ve created a short span of time to experience this problem, but not on such a deep level. On your new path with music and the arts, that will ease your arthritis considerably and you’ll be able to move on. If your arthritis doesn’t totally disappear, and this is entirely up to you, it will be much better than it was.
The Council closes by thanking us for being able to take this information and have so many people be open to it, and get understanding from it, and experience relief from what another spirit has gone through.

Why Did I Have a Loving Childhood and Now I’m Surrounded By Difficult Men?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Serenity, who says she’s a kind woman who comes from a wonderful family and grew up with minimal problems and nothing but love. When I got married we were happy at first, but as the years went by we grew apart and now have nothing in common.
The Council says they don’t see Serenity’s situation the same as she does. You have much in common with your husband and much more to accomplish with him. The feeling of drifting apart is caused by not connecting on a deeper level about moving forward. This relationship isn’t over.
Feeling you’re not connected with your husband allows you space to bring other souls into your life if that’s what you planned. It’s an opportunity to face life’s challenges and happy moments and have experience with another spirit.
Serenity says, we’re married 35 years. Several years ago I rekindled communication with my first love who had become a severe alcoholic and I’m helping him slowly get better.
The Council asks how you’re helping this man. Are you supporting the process of healing himself? You won’t heal anyone. The decision to heal is up to that spirit and it’s your place to accept what they’re going through. Whether he heals and becomes sober or stays with the alcoholism, your purpose is to be a watcher, a supporter, and allow him to be who he is. This is what you planned in spirit.
Serenity says, although my original feelings have changed, I still love both men in different ways. The Council says your feelings haven’t changed, they’re just refocused at the moment.
Serenity says, I’m confused about my purpose in life and why, after being brought up in such a loving environment, I seem to be surrounded by extremely difficult men.
The Council says this gives you a foundation for what you want to create going forward. If you were brought up in a loving environment, did you plan to face challenges and learn from them, and then change these challenges into a loving reality? The loving beginning of your life gave you something so when you get in other relationships, can you create a loving atmosphere. See if you can have a partner that’s also loving to help you find that loving feeling. It’s to learn what you’re currently going through isn’t what you want, but you’ll experience it and this will help you know what to create going forward?
Serenity says, all I ever wanted in life was a simple, intelligent, honest man to love me, have common interests, travel, and enjoy a beautiful life together. I’d like to know my purpose in life and why this has been so difficult to achieve in this incarnation.
The Council sees you wished to have the beautiful and perfect relationship that you have when you’re in spirit. You wanted to experience this in your current lifetime. You can still have this by focusing on what you want. How much of it do you have with this man you’re helping with alcoholism? How much of this experience do you have with your husband? Then refocus your thoughts and concentrate solely on the fact that you’ve had loving relationships in your youth and you need to create it again with these two men in your life.
When you feel this love around you, then you can make a choice to be with one of these men or keep both of them in your life. You came into this lifetime to have love at the beginning of your life and then have challenges. We are here to bring love into every challenge we have, no matter what that challenge is.
As you focus your thoughts and bring in better thoughts, the people around you will feel the change and it will help them move through their challenges and grow. You’ll be a beacon of light and help them through whatever it is they wish to learn.
The Council thanks Cynthia and Bob for bringing in this information to all the souls who need to know there’s more to life than the human condition you’re experiencing, to hear our words, and to connect with their higher selves. This way each one of us, if we grow even an inch, we bring everyone else on this planet with us.

What Caused the Death of a Man I Met Years Ago?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Star27, who wants to know the cause of death of the man she met a couple years ago. When we met I felt I knew him from past lives together. I felt a strong connection and I’d like to know if he felt the same way about me.
The Council says you know this man from other lifetimes. In your current lifetime there wasn’t an agreement to have a long relationship. It was almost like you were two neighbors getting to know each other and then moving away. It was two souls who have worked together in many lifetimes and have come together for a moment to connect. There wasn’t any challenge and nothing the two of you wanted to accomplish and work on in your current lives.
There was a peaceful and loving feeling that, as each of you went along with your lives, you’d make a short stop together. It was like two souls saying, “Hi. How are you doing?” The main reason for your contact with this man was so he could stop by and connect for a little bit.
This man had a lot of challenges going on in his life. He died because he decided whatever he was going to do in this lifetime, his spirit said, “Okay, this is enough.” There wasn’t any suffering associated with this man’s death. He got whatever it was that he needed to accomplish in his life, he wanted to stop by and say hi to you, and then there was a quick decision this reality can come to an end. What was needed was done.
The Council says this man died of natural causes. That’s the power of our mind. When you connect with your higher self and you know it’s time to leave your physical body, you will create that.
The Council says this man did feel the same way about Star27 as she felt about him. You would agree to recognize each other on some level, have some connection and happy feelings, and then go on about your lives.
The Council thanks Cynthia and Bob for bringing this information to all the souls that need to know there’s more than just the human condition they’re experiencing and to connect with their higher selves.
Listen to the entire 4-minute audio recording of our session with The Council to hear all their guidance for Star27 and the rest of us and let us know what you feel about it, or ask The Council your own question.

Is My Son a Starseed?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, SeekingGuidance, who wants to know if her son is a Starseed. He’s amazingly wise and kind for his age and asks questions that are so profound. I’m sure he’s like an old soul who’s come to share his wisdom. If he’s a Starseed, what are his gifts and how can I help him enhance them?
The Council says they wonder if many of us truly know what a Starseed is. There are children who’ve come into our reality known as indigo children. There are also crystal children and rainbow children, and they’re all Starseeds. If you seriously think about this, we’re all Starseeds because we’ve all lived among the stars in different dimensions many times.
The purpose of the Starseeds you’re asking about is to come into this reality not knowing their mission until it’s needed. Then the memory of this mission will awaken them and they’ll know how to handle it.
Starseeds are in all parts of our reality. They are the many souls who’ve come in knowing there’s something better they need to aspire to. They’re here to focus on the light and bring it into the Earth.
Starseeds need to learn about history and figure out where the human condition on this planet is at this time. They usually have the feeling they don’t belong on Earth. They’re not always comfortable in groups.
You should teach these Starseed children about the planets. Take them to the planetarium. Let them see movies about different planets and entities that have come to Earth. This will resonate with them. When they feel troubled it’s good for Starseeds to know about the planets. It’s good for them to focus on something other than what they’re doing here right now.
There’s a sense of needing to do something, but not knowing what to do, and this is very frustrating. The Starseed children that are here now are waiting to act according to what’s created on a mass level in this reality.
Both you and your son have been in many different situations and you’ve come back and forth from different lives on different planets. Each time you come into this reality you’re supposed to share what you know about energy, about possible life beyond this planet, and to expand the knowledge that there’s more than just this reality.
The purpose for your son and you isn’t known yet. Be of the light and positive thinking. Research about space. It’s wonderful if you’re living in an area where you can use a telescope. This is comforting and a great interest to the children who are on Earth and very young.
Starseeds will be interested in history. Many will go into teaching. They want to know everything happening on this planet, where we’ve come from, and how we’ve evolved. Starseeds will also be good at lecturing. Your son will be able to talk to large groups about peace and about expanding yourself with your thoughts and beliefs.
Research history. Make a game out of it. If you were talking about Columbus, ask Starseed children to draw a picture of him. Ask the child what he imagines they were thinking and doing. How did they get to where they were going? Did they follow the stars? Let the child use his brain to come up with a story of things that went on in different parts of your planet’s history. This will expand his understanding and bring in more information.
In dreams and imagination the child will touch on things they remember from another time, but it’ll seem like it’s coming from their imagination. This will connect the child to the energy of why you’re here on Earth and that there’s a bigger cause for you to belong to. There’s a greater challenge during this time, even if it’s only to teach people to get along and be peaceful.
Starseeds are souls who’ve gone back and forth from this Earth experience at different times in history, to living in space and then coming back to the Earth with more knowledge and a purpose.
Always keep the environment of peace in your home, where you work, in school, or wherever you are. This is very important.
The Council thanks Cynthia and Bob for bringing this information to all the souls that need to know there’s more to life than the human condition they’re experiencing, and to hear The Council’s words and connect with their higher selves. In this way each one of us, even if we grow an inch, we bring everyone else on this planet with us.

What About My Relationship With A Woman I Met On Instagram?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Harmony, who says they just met a girl on Instagram a few days ago. I only sent her a few messages, but I felt love for her.
The Council says this is a recognition, but it’s also your heart that’s searching for someone to love. Connecting with this woman is making you wonder if this is the person for me? Will this bring love? And we say, yes, it has already because you feel the connection.
Harmony says, I just met her and we haven’t really spoken, but I haven’t felt this feeling for someone special for a very long time. I’m grateful for these feelings, but I’m curious why I’m having them when we just met?
The Council says it’s similar to when two people went to school together in first grade and now you’re in college and you’ve found each other again and you recognize each other. That’s what brings this loving feeling. When you recognize each other, what automatically comes up is the question, now what do we do? What direction do we go in? Just relax and feel this familiar feeling. If you bring out feelings of love, warmth, and connection, then enjoy that for right now because that’s what this is.
Harmony asks if she knew this woman in past lives. The Council sees a life as Native Americans who were able to connect with nature and get information intuitively from the spirits of trees, water, and mountains. That’s why you have an intuitive recognition of a connection with this woman. It’s a recognition you brought from another time into your current reality.
Harmony asks if this is a romantic relationship I should pursue? The Council says, yes, there’s a possibility of a romance and it’s the way you wish to create it. Work on your relationship with this woman and do the inner work of thinking about how you want it to be and create from there.
Harmony changes the direction of her questions here and asks, what is my life purpose? The Council says it’s the same as everyone else. Your purpose was to come here and bring as much love as you could from the spirit world into this world. You wanted to run around, have fun and experiences, and enjoy the good times. The challenges you create, you created them so you could change them.
There isn’t any one specific purpose in your life. Sometimes you just want to get here and see what you can do. You want to have fun with your life. In spirit we know that no matter what we experience, everything will be all right. Let me have the experience. Let me see how I handle it. Let me see what I learn from it.
It would be good for you to read books on healing. Hands Of Light, by Barbara Brennan, would be good. Any healing classes you can find during the COVID crises would also be good to take. Work with energy. Work with crystals. Work with plants and trees around where you live. Grow some plants, bring them into the house, and connect with them. Meditate in a room where you have plants. This will bring you more and more into the healing you wish to experience in this lifetime.

Why Did My Brother’s Spirit End His Rugby Career with an Injury?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Phindezwa, who’d like to better understand her role in her younger brother’s life. A few years ago he was injured, which led to the end of his professional rugby career. Since then he’s struggled to find a meaningful career path and I’m currently supporting him, but I want him to be fully independent. Phindezwa asks why her brother’s spirit chose to end his rugby career and experience major difficulties over the last few years.
The Council says your brother’s spirit chose this path to be an example for others. It was pre-planned in spirit for him to have a rugby career he felt good about and to remember how that felt. Then your brother’s spirit wanted him to experience a feeling of failure, to not understand what happened, and not be able to move on. Once that was felt, you chose to be the creative and comforting one. It’s good that you’re playing this comforting role. But when your brother is trying too hard to find another career, almost out of desperation and sadness because that’s not what he wanted in his life, this makes it difficult to bring in this other career.
It’s good for you to talk to your brother as much as possible and share any ideas you and he might have about his new career. He can still have a career in sports if he wants, but not as a professional athlete. He needs to have a feeling of: I experienced the accomplishments I achieved, I believe I created this change in my life, and now there’s something more I can accomplish. There’s something out there that can make me feel even better than I did playing rugby. When he finds this he wants to show people that face the same sort of loss, whether being fired from a job or not finding one, how to go about overcoming this loss.
When your brother is able to pick himself up and try almost anything until the right position comes along, and if he faces everything he tries with the idea of seeing how it goes, and if this isn’t it then it will be something else. Each job leads him closer to what he wants to do. But we suggest somehow your brother keeps looking for work in the area of sports.
Phindezwa asks what her role is in her brother’s life. The Council says it’s to be a supportive person, the one that talks ideas through with him, the one that lifts his spirit, and the one that teaches him he can create whatever he wants. He was good at one thing. Now he’s in a place where he can be great again at something else.
You’re also there to see how your brother’s life is affecting you. Do you like being in the role of a supportive person? What feelings does it bring up in you? Know that you and your brother have pre-planned these experiences in spirit. You’re in the role you desired to experience. You wanted to see how to be supportive and yet step back and let your brother find his own way, but always be there for him. You’ll be showing your brother love and accepting him exactly the way he is. As you accept him and you know there’s a new career for him, he’ll begin to feel that.
As soon as your brother can create independence in his life, it will be there for him.

Why Am I So Connected To My Ex-Boyfriend?
This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Broken-Hearted Lady, who wants to know why she feels so connected to her ex-boyfriend who broke up with her. He had become depressed and said he had nothing to offer her.
The Council says in another lifetime you were together as friends in a German concentration camp during World War II. You were separated during that lifetime and there was a feeling of depression and sadness around that.
In your current lifetime there was a desire to come together and create what you could. You didn’t particularly pre-plan that you’d be together forever in this reality, but you did plan to come together and feel a closeness to each other.
The depression your ex feels is something he brought into this life from the life in Germany and he needs to deal with it. In that past life your ex could do nothing for you, and he also feels he can’t do anything for you or anyone else in your current reality. This is an issue he’s dealing with.
It’s good for you to be supportive of your ex. The Council advises you to move on from your ex and look for love in another relationship, but there’s no need to leave your ex behind. You can keep this relationship for whatever amount of time you like.
You need to learn there are different kinds of love. You can love your ex and try to help him, but you can also move forward. You can have both. Your ex needs support to face the challenges in his life. In spirit you wanted to be in your ex’s life and be supportive, no matter how his life turned out. This is why you’re feeling a heavy heart, but you’re doing exactly what you planned in spirit.
You don’t have to cut your ex out of your life unless it becomes too painful for you, but we don’t think it will go in that direction. You can send your ex love, whether you speak once a week, once a month, or once a year. You can still play the role you both agreed to of being supportive and still move on and create what you want.
Broken-hearted Lady says this was one of the most in sync relationships I ever had and I miss my ex dearly. My friends advise me to totally disconnect from him so I can move on, but the thought of doing that doesn’t sit well with me. We communicate every couple of weeks. The Council says this is because you’re intuitive and you subconsciously know what you both planned in spirit.
Broken-hearted Lady says she still has hope of reuniting in the future, but is that foolish? The Council says it is possible, but it’s what you create in your life and what your ex creates. By sending your ex love you help him through what he’s trying to heal in this lifetime and it also brings the vibration of love around you. If this is something you really, really want, then The Council suggests you focus on this.
Focus on your ex coming through the depression. Focus on a good friendship where you can connect and talk more often. Or focus on having a romantic relationship. It will take work. Remember to go into the vibration of joy first. Then imagine the way you want the relationship to be. Then believe you can have this.
Broken-hearted Lady says if my ex and I won’t be together again will I ever find a love that touches my heart and spirit as much as my ex did? The Council says everything is wide open for you right now. You will experience love. How you’re going to create this is totally up to you.

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.
