And crucially, not waiting for someone else to fix it. The Age of Aquarius is about making the most of our freedom while bearing the responsibilities for our own lives, too.
“I am no longer accepting the things I cannot change.
I am changing the things I cannot accept.”
When you seek solitude and can’t find it in your own mind.
You are an infinite being with infinite possibilities and infinite potential: In the philosophy of anthroposophy (introduced by the philosopher, Rudolf Steiner, 1861-1925), both soul and spirit are defined and worked with, in the triumvirate of body, soul, and spirit. The human body has two aspects, a.) the physical substances such as oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, iron, and much more, ordered by b.) an astonishing divinely-inspired plan or design of the human body.

The middle realm is soul, whose workshop is relationship. The themes of soul are, in contrast to the spirit’s light and freedom, darkness, and constraint. The soul is where we wake up in the morning saying, “I am here, time for another day.” Whether in that first moment of the dawning day we say “it’s another terrible day with terrible people in it giving me a hard time” or “another opportunity to meet the challenges, to learn, to develop the heart, to enjoy this beautiful place”—that is the work of the soul. In the soul we have the tools of thinking (cognition), feeling (affection), and willing (doing, volition). We use those tools in our engagements with others through sacred relationship.

With so much in transition, what can you do to future-proof ourselves? ‘The person who’s adaptable and trained to work in a number of settings will survive changes best, as will those who take responsibility without being asked,’ says Shelley. ‘If there is any quality essential for this new age, it’s retaining a youthful inquisitiveness about work and life.’ Transformation may not be tidy, but it’s full of opportunities. Whether you are a tech-loving rational thinker, or a new age hippy, consider whether you want to close your mind to the new world.
When patterns are broken, new worlds emerge.- so if you don’t like the world you are living in then change the pattern of it one thought at a time. We are fundamentally mirrors for each other. And in our relational agreements, we can learn how to serve each other in a more conscious and neutral manner, in order that our intimate relationships can be more valuable vessels for spiritual growth. Without this understanding, and the tools necessary to craft such a relationship, we will often see the love and commitment of couples turn to spite and resentment.
