Once upon a time, if you were born as a peasant farmer, odds were that you stayed a peasant farmer for the rest of your life. If you were a tradesman, you stayed a tradesman. And if you were a woman well, you didnt even get to choose a trade. In other words, our choices were incredibly limited.

Today, on the other hand, we have the opportunity to reinvent ourselves as many times as we want. We can radically change our profession, we can dramatically increase our income, we can start businesses, we can get married, get divorced, or not even bother with the traditional conventions of relationships and family. In other words, the choices available to us are practically limitless.

The evolution of much of todays society towards an abundance of choice is mirrored by our evolution towards higher consciousness. The two go hand in hand.

As society has shifted dramatically to allow for incredible new availability of choice, so has our ability to access information about our creative process through choice and consequence. Which came first the societal shift or the accessing of higher consciousness? Most likely, new consciousness triggered social change, which triggered new shifts in consciousness, which triggered more social change, and so on.

So here we are. In much of the Western world, we can do pretty much ANYTHING we want with our lives. Thanks to the Internet, we can study anything, develop any skills we want, generate income from our couch, and find people all over the world who share our perspectives. For women even more than men, the availability of choice has changed dramatically.

BUT many of us who are dedicated to our spiritual path and personal evolution have never been in this much struggle. In spite of all this availability of choice and consciousness, I get emails every day from highly awakened and gifted Souls who are struggling financially, and feeling stuck in their third-dimensional lives.

Heres why:

Were trying to walk two very different and ultimately opposing spiritual paths.

Imagine you are a spiritual teacher, hundreds of years ago, trying to serve as many people as possible in making their lives better and happier.

What would you tell the peasant farmer, the tradesman, the scholar? Their professions, relationships, and economic circumstances were not going to change much. Major life transformations were just not available to most people.
