“There are no easy answers, but there are simple answers.

We must have the courage to do what we know is morally right.”

~ Ronald Reagan

Decision Time is NOW, in this present moment. We’ve captured the ESSENCE of 44 wonderful Aspects describing the new paradigm of conscious and regenerative living, and the decision to change your life is now within your power. Our collective decisions reflect our collective consciousness, and will determine the destiny of future generations living on the Earth. All of our decisions matter, including your decisions!

As the Y-graphic depicts, the United States (and many countries around the world) has experienced high degrees of growth and prosperity since the 1940s. However, the karma of overspending, overindulging, corruption, greed, power, control, and oppression has finally caught up, leading us into “The Great Recession” in 2008-2009.

The oppression continues, and here we are in 2024, dealing with the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Russia-Ukraine war, the Israel-Hamas war, and the Trump assassination attempts…. just to name a few.

Ever since The Great Recession, the Federal Reserve Board has been propping up and manipulating the markets by printing more and more money, diluting the dollar even more, while increasing wealth inequality to their highest levels to date. This divide between the top and bottom is caused by the oppression placed upon most of us, which is the old paradigm at work. Consequently, as of 2024, the middle class in the United States is diminishing at an alarming rate.

Unless we UNITE as Americans to reclaim our power and freedom, then it’s simply a matter of time until we become a Marxist capitalist society, which is divided into two main social classes: bourgeoisie and proletariat.

The bourgeoisie consist of the capitalists who own the means of production. They derive their income and profits by taking from the proletariat. They hire the proletariat to produce goods. In other words, they are the slave owners.

The proletariat consist of the working class people, who sell their labor power for a wage or salary. They have little choice but to work for the capitalists, because they usually can’t survive on their own. In other words, they are the slaves.

Regardless of this doomsday outlook, there exists an alternate reality as a new conscious and regenerative civilization is forming that offers a new life of love, joy, freedom, prosperity, and peace. The ticket price for entry is a combination of good intentions and a desire to live a collaborative and peaceful life in the new conscious and regenerative world.

What most people don’t realize is that at the inception of the COVID-19 pandemic, a fork in the path emerged. This new path is a Divine Detour, representative of The Great Awakening. Since most people didn’t see this fork, they have remained on the old, 20th-century constrictive path until this very day. Some people did see it and veered right at the fork, taking the new 21st-century eXpansive path, remaining calm amid the chaos, living peacefully on the eXpansive path to this very day, realizing that old paradigm living is obsolete. Perhaps it’s time to abandon the old and embrace the new!

The Great Awakening is the awakening of people’s Souls. When we awaken to our truth that we are spiritual beings having a human experience, we can exercise our power by evolving to a new paradigm higher consciousness life.

Decision time is all about deciding which path you are choosing to live on. Every individual decision matters, as our collective decisions will determine the destiny of ourselves, our families, and the next seven generations.

Any person that is currently living on the constrictive path can simply decide to take a bridge the eXpansive path, living a new regenerative life. It’s not too late. All it takes is your decision, along with your bravery and inspired action, to create a new vision for your life, then build into physical form.

As more and more human beings transcend the old paradigm to become conscious consumers, we vote with our dollars, instantly and automatically changing marketplace dynamics by no longer supporting the greedy companies and the people leading them, who are oppressing us. Conscious consumers are the ones in power, so long as we unite.

More specifically, behavioral economics will automatically change marketplace dynamics; as conscious consumers change their behaviors, their financial impact changes too. In other words, when we change our behaviors, the dollars will follow. Change is within our power. Incremental change leads to transformational change. What are you deciding to do?

Sleeping Souls tend to naively believe that they are victims of circumstances, not realizing that they are the cause of them. Many tend to believe that the answers they are seeking are external to themselves. Through their constrictive perspective, they’re unable to see this Divine Detour and therefore miss the opportunity to become an aspect of the collective higher consciousness that continues to eXpand today. As a result, most Sleeping Souls continue to remain on the constrictive path, having an illusionary belief that it will lead them back to the prosperous times of yesteryear. They’re unable to see the larger picture. Many complain about wanting a new life yet do very little seeking toward creating one. Many continue to believe that we are separate from Nature and each other, remaining stuck in their self-imposed suffering. Their purchasing behaviors remain the same, and they continue to deplete the Earth’s resources. Too many Sleeping Souls fail to realize that they are contributing to the outcome of “Humanity Dies” (refer to the Y-graphic). Some begin to seek.

Seekers discover a new way of life, deciding to take the bridge to their new regenerative life on the eXpansive path. Their eXpansive consciousness awakens, replacing fear with trust. They discover their truth, exercising their freedom by making conscious decisions that support their new 21st-century life. Many Seekers come to realize that we are a reflection of Nature because we are Nature itself. Consequently, how we treat the Earth is a reflection of how we treat ourselves. Seekers break free from the shackles of external validation, no longer relying on others for their approval and/or to fix their problems. They learn to unleash their power from within, establishing clear boundaries, new good habits, and positive intentions, all of which are being fueled by their inspired actions. Seekers make conscious purchasing decisions that reflect conscious and regenerative living. They are contributing to the ultimate outcome of Humanity Thrives (refer to the Y-graphic).

Awakened tend to be already living an open-hearted, regenerative life. They have awakened to a state of power, peacefulness, harmony, and balance, living with simplicity. They live with respect and integrity and don’t succumb to the oppression. Most Awakened continue to seek. They know the Universe is infinite and therefore learning is infinite, too. They have been successful in transcending the old paradigm to reach the new paradigm of conscious and regenerative living. Awakened are the ones who are living a new regenerative life, and so can you.

We look look forward to meeting you in our conscious community at princetongreen.org.

If you happen to remain undecided and are seeking greater clarity, then a great exercise that may be helpful is to review the following tables. When reviewing each Aspect, circle which perspective best describes you. Once through reviewing, count the total number of old perspectives and compare to the number of new perspectives.

How many of each perspective did you choose?

Are you more Constrictive or more eXpansive?

Which path are you deciding to live on?
