We Don’t Wait for Prophecies — We Create the Future

Who Chooses the Direction of Our Future?

The future needs people who consciously help shape it. People who can imagine peace, honest relationships and a life without the constant pressure to prove their worth, and then give that vision a concrete form.

Many prophecies circulate around us. Another war. Another collapse. Another catastrophe. Someone announces that they know the only possible course of events and expects others to surrender their attention to it. Sometimes they speak with such certainty that we begin to treat their words as a verdict.

Let us pause there. The certainty in someone’s voice is not evidence in itself. Popularity, a spiritual title, a large following or claims of special access to knowledge do not take away our right to form our own judgment. We can listen to someone and check what their words are based on. We can also refuse to live according to their vision.

For me, creating the New Earth begins here: reclaiming the right to choose consciously. I want to decide for myself which direction I support through my attention, work, money and treatment of other people.

Each of us has influence, although its reach varies. The future is also shaped by other people’s decisions, institutions, living conditions and events beyond our control. Yet we can recognise our own scope for action and gradually expand it, including together with others.

Someone else’s prophecy has no right to own that space. We have the right to choose cooperation when someone predicts inevitable hostility. We have the right to create useful solutions when someone insists that everything is heading only towards collapse. The future remains a space for our decisions too.

We Don’t Feed Catastrophic Prophecies

In my spiritual perspective, repeating visions of inevitable wars, suffering and catastrophes feeds the egregore of the Old Earth. I use this word to describe a shared field of attention, emotions and images centred on fear, division and helplessness. It is the language of my understanding of spirituality, rather than a scientifically established mechanism.

We can also notice an ordinary, everyday dimension of this kind of message. We watch a disturbing video. We tell other people about it. We check the next recording, then the comments, then another prediction. More and more of our conversations revolve around what we fear. When this habit consumes the day, it can become harder to return to our own affairs and assess the situation calmly.

At that point, it helps to ask: what does this content help me do? Does it contain information I can verify? Does it lead to sensible preparation, or leave me only feeling tense? Does its author acknowledge uncertainty and the possibility of being wrong?

We can check the information we need, use a reliable warning and take protective action. Then we can return to our lives. Accurate information about a threat has its place; winding ourselves up with further visions of inevitable misfortune does not have to fill our daily lives.

If someone announces another catastrophe, we do not have to pass that prediction on. We can stop watching, turn off notifications or calmly say in a conversation: I would prefer to check the facts and think about what we can do.

People affected by war, violence or poverty deserve help and respect. Their suffering gives us no grounds to accuse them of having the wrong thoughts or lacking awareness. Our spirituality should increase our willingness to show compassion and take action.

We can direct the attention we reclaim from catastrophic messages towards what we want to create: a conversation, work, a useful idea, rest or helping someone nearby. Each return is a choice of direction.

We Consciously Choose the New Earth

When we stop endlessly repeating what we do not want, there is room for a more meaningful question: what kind of world do we want to experience, and what can we contribute to it?

I choose a New Earth based on peace, freedom, truth, empathy and cooperation. I want a world where people can live with dignity, develop their abilities and create without humiliating others. I want fair exchange, good food, responsible businesses and relationships where we can set a boundary and remain ourselves.

In spiritual language, I speak of choosing the New Earth timeline. This vision gives my decisions direction. I connect intention and imagination with what I can do in an actual day, with the resources available to me and among people who retain their own free will.

For a moment, imagine an ordinary day in that world. How do people talk to one another? How do they agree on working conditions? What do they do with an object that can be repaired? How do they respond to someone else’s difficulty? What does a company look like when its work truly serves its customers and employees?

Then choose one element of that vision and bring it into your life today. You can keep a promise, prepare an honest offer, listen to another person or refuse to take part in a humiliating conversation. You can also create something useful: a piece of writing, a song, a tool, a service or a space where people can meet.

It helps when an intention has a specific moment for action. Instead of leaving it at a general “I want to live more consciously”, decide: at my next purchase, I will check whether I really need this. Before my next assignment, I will prepare my rate and the scope of the work. In the evening, I will set aside some time for an idea of my own.

In this way, the vision gains a place in our calendar, conversations and actions. We begin to experience even a small part of the world we have chosen.

We Value Ourselves and Our Work

One such part is the way we treat our own work. Many people can appreciate someone else’s effort while giving away their own with almost no boundaries. They agree to further responsibilities, extra time and rates that have long ceased to reflect the task they perform.

We can begin by calmly acknowledging: my time, skills and responsibility matter. I have the right to discuss fair conditions and work towards better pay.

It is worth preparing in concrete terms. What can I do? What am I responsible for? What value does my work provide? How much time does an assignment really take, including preparation, revisions and communication? What conditions will let me do it well while leaving room for life?

If you run your own business, you can organise your offer and clearly explain what the price includes. If you work for someone else, you can gather examples of your results and prepare a conversation about your rate. You can develop a skill, look for other opportunities or set a boundary around additional responsibilities.

The outcome depends on many circumstances. A conversation may take time, and changing your workplace or clients may require preparation. You have the right to build your position in stages, taking your commitments and security into account. Imagining better conditions can be a beginning; decisions, conversations and work towards a solution must follow.

Your dignity is also present when you earn little, are looking for employment or perform work that nobody pays for. The amount of income does not define a person’s worth.

When we employ people ourselves or commission their work, the same principle applies to the other side. Let us agree fairly on the scope, honour deadlines and appreciate other people’s effort. We also create the New Earth through the terms of exchange we offer others.

Our Purchases Support the World We Choose

The money we spend goes towards specific products and ways of doing business. Within our means, we can choose what we want to support.

Let us begin with food. By junk food, I mean here products whose quality takes second place to intense flavour, convenience and encouraging the next purchase. I want to consciously limit those choices and more often choose food that supports good everyday nourishment.

Checking the ingredients, comparing sugar and salt content or planning a simple meal may help. The choice also depends on price, availability and time. We can look for ordinary, accessible solutions; frozen vegetables or a straightforward meal have their place too. Processing alone does not determine a product’s quality.

Everyone’s circumstances are different. Tiredness, budget and access to shops affect what we can realistically choose. Instead of demanding perfection from ourselves, let us find one change we can maintain.

We can look at other purchases in a similar way. Does the product meet a need? Does the company present its offer honestly? Is the item durable, and can it be repaired? Do I know the facts about the company’s activities, or am I basing my judgment on a rumour?

If we identify a practice we do not want to support, we can withdraw our money and seek another solution. I want businesses based on poor quality and exploiting people to lose demand, while useful solutions gain room to grow. A company may change the way it operates, reduce a harmful offering or close down; a single purchase does not guarantee any of those outcomes.

This choice does not require hostility towards employees. We can hold a business to standards while respecting the people who are trying to earn a living. When we can, let us support solutions that create fairer work and real value.

We Reduce Consumerism

A functioning car can illustrate this principle well. If it is safe, works and meets my needs, I can keep using it. I do not have to replace it just because a new model has appeared or someone nearby has bought a more expensive one.

We can ask a similar question about a phone, clothes, furniture or household equipment: does this item still serve me? Can I care for it, repair it or use it in another way? Does my desire for a new purchase come from a need or from comparing myself with others?

A new item may be necessary. Safety, changes in living conditions, running costs or the impossibility of repair can justify replacement. A conscious choice takes those circumstances into account. In the car example, its mechanical condition and actual maintenance costs matter too.

Reducing consumerism gives us the opportunity to use what we already have without constant pressure to seek novelty. We can buy less often, choose longer-lasting items, use second-hand things, borrow or share something we need only occasionally.

Before a purchase, it is worth pausing. Ask exactly what the item will be used for, where it will fit and whether a solution is already available. Simply wanting to own something does not have to become a transaction immediately.

We can enjoy beautiful objects and new technology. We also have the right to stay out of a race in which each new possession is briefly meant to confirm our status. A calm “I have what I need” opens space for other things: creativity, relationships, learning and rest.

For me, this way of living is part of the New Earth. We give objects time, appreciate human work and use resources more carefully. We can build our sense of worth outside our purchases too.

Together, We Feed the Egregore of the New Earth

In my spiritual perspective, the egregore of the New Earth grows stronger through a shared intention of peace, freedom, empathy and responsibility. I see it as a field of direction that we choose and sustain together. I also want to show its meaning in the way we live.

When people cooperate, they can combine skills, time and resources. One person brings an idea, another knows how to make it, another reaches the audience, and someone else notices a problem and helps improve it. This is how solutions emerge that would be difficult for one person to create alone.

We can begin close to home. Recommend an honest tradesperson. Share knowledge. Help someone prepare an offer. Repair an item together, organise a gathering or create something useful for our community. Instead of endlessly repeating a prediction of collapse, we can show an existing example of cooperation.

The way we do this matters. Freedom allows people to accept an invitation or decline it. Empathy makes room for a different pace and different living conditions. Honesty allows us to admit that an idea needs improvement. Responsibility means honouring our agreements.

We do not need to claim higher spiritual status to contribute something good. Someone may use entirely different language while still creating peace, fair work and a good relationship. We can recognise shared values in actions.

We can also protect our boundaries, respond to violence and demand accountability for harm. That protection should serve people and allow us to continue building.

What I call feeding the egregore of the New Earth therefore takes an everyday form: someone feels heard, an agreement is honoured, a useful idea finds support, and an object gets a second life. Those experiences can build trust in shared action.

One Conscious Choice Today

After reading this text, choose one thing you can influence today. Let it be small and specific enough to carry out.

First, name the value. It might be peace, honesty, respect for your own work, care for your body or responsible use of possessions.

Then recognise a place where you want to give that value more room. Perhaps you watch further catastrophic predictions every day. Perhaps you keep postponing a conversation about your rate. Perhaps you automatically buy something you later never use.

Choose an action and a moment. After work, I will write down three points for a conversation about pay. At my next shop, I will choose one product more carefully. On Saturday, I will check whether an item I wanted to replace can be repaired. When another sensational prophecy appears, I will check whether it contains information I need for action and decide how much attention I want to give it.

Make room for obstacles and adjustments. If the step proves too large, make it smaller. If you need help, look for someone you can prepare it with. In the evening, notice what you actually did and what you learned.

The future holds many possibilities. I want to participate in developing those that lead towards the New Earth. I can choose the content I share, how I earn and spend money, my relationships and the work I contribute to our shared world.

We do not have to wait for someone to announce a ready-made future to us. We can consciously help create it today, within the space of our own free will and shared action.

What can I create today to make a piece of the New Earth a reality?
