In a time when humanity is facing both unprecedented challenges and extraordinary opportunities for transformation, Between Lives by Reena Kumarasingham and Andy Tomlinson offers a profound and timely exploration of the soul’s journey beyond the physical realm. The excerpt “Living in a New Consciousness” invites readers into a visionary reflection on the emerging global spiritual awakening. As Kumarasingham and Tomlinson describe, this rising consciousness is not merely a shift in thought but a deeper reconnection with our eternal selves. It encourages us to move beyond fear, ego, and division, and to step into a collective vibration rooted in unity, compassion, and purpose.
This powerful passage is not only an invitation, it’s a reminder. A reminder that within each of us lies the wisdom of lifetimes and the ability to co-create a more conscious, awakened world.
Periodically, humanity undergoes significant changes, which may be related to a shift in the Earth’s axis, causing it to point towards different heavenly bodies. The time it takes to change the direction of the Earth’s axis is slow, with a full precession rotation taking approximately 26,000 years. Subdivided by twelve for the different signs of the zodiac, every 2,160 years brings in different heavenly energies and a new age. During the time of Moses, approximately 4,000 years ago, the age of Taurus shifted to Aries. Approximately 2,000 years ago, during the time of Jesus, the zodiac sign of Aries shifted to Pisces. We are now stepping into a new era from Pisces to Aquarius.
During the time of Moses, we transitioned from the pagan era of the Egyptians to the concept of the one God. This was a new belief system from which Judaism emerged. Then, the time of Jesus brought the feminine and masculine together, as well as the divine. His teachings were significantly different from those of Moses, allowing him to also shift people’s consciousness.
We are now not only moving into a new age from Pisces to Aquarius, but we are starting a whole new precession rotation. Very high vibrations are bombarding Earth and are shifting its consciousness. And because people’s consciousness is part of the Earth, we need to shift to be in resonance.
The high vibration energy coming into Earth will amplify the frequency of even the most minute particle. It will intensify everything around us and within us: our thoughts, our emotions, and our physical body that holds our consciousness. So, if we carry a lot of anxiety, this will be amplified. If we carry a lot of joy, this, too, will be amplified. We can see this at a global level where polarity and divisiveness are being stirred to an extreme. The levels of fear, anxiety, and stress we are witnessing are high. People are more disconnected from nature and from each other. What we are witnessing is more and more breakdowns of the old systems.
The new vibrations are also breaking down long-held illusions and bringing to the surface what has been previously hidden. This is happening at both a global level and a personal level. While some of the unveilings can be shocking or disturbing, they are being brought to the forefront of our awareness so that we can see exactly what’s been happening and can make our own decision whether we want to continue to stay in the old consciousness or change and move to the new. This will allow for new systems that are aligned with the new vibrations of expanded consciousness to be created and upheld.
It is an individual choice, and making the shift into the new is difficult and will take a lot of courage. However, staying with the old will progressively get uncomfortable. We are still newborns, and our umbilical cords are still attached to the old world. Soon, they will fall off, and we sail freely into a new cycle.
What will living in the New Consciousness be like
It’s dropping the ego consciousness and moving towards embodying a soul consciousness that is a wise, unconditionally loving, creative wholeness and represents our most authentic state of being beyond our conditionings, fears, limiting beliefs, wounds, and ego fixations. It helps us realize that the divine is right here inside each life breath, inside each heartbeat, inside everyone and everything around us. It makes us feel that there is a divine purpose, divine aim, divine ideal, and divine goal. Within soul consciousness, everything is constantly expanding and growing into a higher and more fulfilling light.
Some Tips to Start Moving to the New Consciousness
1 Breaking Illusions
It’s about embracing what’s real and breaking away from the illusions of the old consciousness. When finding the truth in information and events around us, we need to take a step back beyond political sides, polarity, and ideologies, and keep a sense of neutrality. Embracing uncertainty gives us the state of mind of being able to ask better questions. We can then act as a sacred scientist, truly seeking to understand why something happens without bias stopping our inquiry.
2 Detaching from Old Programming
Cultural conditioning happens throughout our lives. As young children, our parents influence us, then we play with other children and adapt to their way of behaving; the type of school we attend affects us, then our relationships with the other sex, the working environment, and the power of relatives or groups of colleagues. It comes from the media and social media, and the information we read. We need the courage to change even if those around us don’t understand.
3 Relationships
We will find it increasingly challenging living with a partner, relation, or business colleague still in the old one. It will not feel right. It is a soul choice to stay in the old consciousness or wake up and move on to the New Consciousness. It is not about trying to fix the issue but about respecting the free will of the other soul and letting go. New relationships with those in a similar vibration will happen quickly, and it will feel right being with them.
The New consciousness is about people understanding that we are divine and that we can actually do quite a lot with the Earth and with the energies of the Earth that we haven’t been able to tap into for such a long time.
