For many years, many people have been talking about “The Shift”, this mysterious transformation of human consciousness that is supposed to be underway.
Since the Mayan calendar ended in December 2012, New Age types have tended to chirp over the evolution of the species, the revolution of love, and other hopeful, but fuzzy, changes in what it means to be human. We want to take a minute to help all of us anchor this floating notion a little.
Notice if any of these seem familiar:
- Do you have a vision of an aspect of a more beautiful world, and you know that it is your sacred goal to contribute to its realization?
- Do you feel that something is not aligned in the world and you want to be part of the solution?
- Did you experience a life-changing event that changed everything for you, and now you want to use that experience to help others?
- Do you have an innovative idea that could make the world a better place?
- Do you feel called – the way a priest is called to the priesthood or a doctor is called to medicine – to help others heal, transform, connect, love, create, succeed and prosper?
You may not recognize every attribute, but you will probably nod your head a lot as you read these characteristics of those whose souls were incarnated here on this planet right now to facilitate this mystical change in human consciousness.
18 sings that you’re here to transform human consciousness:

5. An urgent desire to alleviate or prevent the suffering of humans, animals or even plants.
