glamour

One of the challenges of these coming times for conscious spiritual folks is what was once called "glamour," which is feeling spiritually superior to others, those not on a conscious path as well as those who are very conscious.

It is easy to feel a bit paternal, or even condescending to those "others," as the coming times more and more support living consciously: we were/are right and they were/are wrong. Of course, the second we make that judgment, we are wrong -- absolutely.

As we tend to surround ourselves with like-minded folks, it's even easier to separate oneself from the 'crowd' and feel empowered by the Universe to tell others how to live (I've certainly done it, and may be doing it right now).

But with power and advantage must come humility. To whom much is given, much is expected. We must be careful about repeating the same mistakes of the past under the veneer of "spirituality."

This is the Age of Aquarius, the Violet Age, when all that is hidden will be revealed. When all separations will be healed. There will be no more secret societies, or hidden agendas, or hierarchies. The new world will be spherical, not vertical.

We will all come to understand that without the 'unconscious' help of those who worked-the-dark, we would not now be entering so much light. Everyone is valuable. Has been valuable. The Universe wastes nothing. Everything is perfect and right on schedule.

In the new world we cannot suddenly replace the estranged governments of the past with estranged governments filled with spiritual folks. Fascism is fascism, regardless of 'high intent.'

We are all one here. We always have been, we'd simply forgotten and let our lower egos run things.

In the coming times, we will have to be extra vigilant of those same egos simply usurping one world for another.
