In the previous two posts, we learned about human love and divine love and the purpose of relationships. They led to a couple of questions raised by my readers that I will address here. Why are people on the spiritual path often not in relationships?
1. Why are people on the spiritual path often not in relationships?
My favorite guides on matters like this are the 9D and 12D Pleiadians (“the P’s”), who explained these points through Wendy Kennedy:
When you create with another consciousness, they are a reflection for you.
That other consciousness could be anything from a rock, tree, the weather, animal OR another human being, like a partner or a grocery clerk or whoever you encounter in your daily life. ALL of them are a reflection for you.
- For example, you could play out the issue of “abandonment” with your mother or lover or boss. The situation may look different on the surface, but they’re showing you different versions of the same theme with a somewhat different intensity and perspective.
- Kennedy said that usually we don’t play out an issue in just one area of life. The universe gives us many examples, so we’ll pay attention and get it. 😉
A lot of people on the spiritual path have chosen NOT to have long-term, intimate relationships for several reasons.
- Some people want to work on their own self-identity, to learn how to hold their own resonance, and to identify their own energies, to focus on themselves for a while.
- Some feel like they can get lost in romantic relationships.
- Some people may feel that other people are demanding, too needy or a big distraction for them.
- Some may not feel deserving of a loving relationship.
- Some are afraid that it’s not safe to be in a relationship. Someone is going to hurt or wound them.
- Some may have programs from other lifetimes as celibates, monks, etc. They are working to clear those programs in this lifetime to balance spirituality with sexuality.
Once a person is ready (once they’ve learned to nurture and love themselves and to connect to Source within), they will pull in other people.
But it will be a different, more elevated relationship, since they’re no longer expecting someone else to complete them or to make them happy. They know how to do that for themselves.
- Intimate relationships serve us by giving us the quickest reflection of our own frequency.
- They allow us to go to deeper levels, that we might not even be conscious of until somebody triggers us. They serve us by showing another issue or layer for us to work on.
Once we integrate an issue, we’re no longer triggered or charged by it. We can see the purpose and cocreative nature of BOTH sides and why we created it. We’re learning to see ourselves as the cocreators of 100% our own reality.
2. Do you ever notice that once you are in a relationship, all of the sudden people come out of the woodwork?
Wendy Kennedy noted that most of us are looking for love through our horizontal connections with a romantic partner, rather than through our direct vertical connection to Source.
What happens when we’re “in love” with a person?
We think it’s the other person who is giving us the feelings of love, bliss and joy. But it’s actually because WE are opening ourselves to feel more Source energy, according to Kennedy.
- Depending on our ability to open up, our vertical channel to Source can range from 1 inch (contracted) to 6 feet wide (expanded), which makes a huge difference in how we project ourselves to others.
- We look and feel different to others because our frequencies are higher.
- The higher selves of other people will notice you as a “bright being” over there. They’ll want to approach you. Even the neighborhood dogs and cats may stare at you or want to meet you. 😉
Here is a funny video take on this phenomenon, called “Boyfriend Spray” (by www.Comediva.com) that you can view here or on YouTube:
Final Thoughts
To me one of the most liberating things the P’s have said is this:
“Remember: The soul doesn’t care whether you succeed or not – it’s all about experience. The ego says: I must succeed in order to be loved. The soul is eternal and can always choose another vibrational experience. The soul says: That was interesting. I saw how that worked out. I’ll try something new now!” ― Wendy Kennedy
With that in mind, there is no such thing as failure in love or life!
You’re right, Aurora. You are on path spiritually speaking, as indicated by the thoughtful questions you pose! Keep working on your inner self and moving up the frequencies. Don’t dim your light to be “normal” or to fit in — find like-minded lightworkers to work with. You’re not alone.

Thank you this really does help. I guess that I must have several contracts with my mother. One of my own recurring life themes tends to be the value of independence and self reliance.
I think that it is possible that my life plan is unusual and complicated. It seems that my exit points are less defined so they could be used at any time (ulcerative colitis). I tend to want to know more about the world in general rather than connect with others as much, and sometimes I have an obsession with breaking free of karma and raising my frequency.
There are over 80 different interactive or reciprocal contracts between souls that may or may not be karmic. Usually they are done with a soul that incarnates with us, but we switch positions with each other in one or more lifetimes. It is possible to have many contracts with different people in one lifetime and more than one contract going on with the same person in the same lifetime. All these contracts involve just a handful of issues, including abandonment, separation, safety, security, persecution, manipulation, control and trust.
When a karmic contract has been fully resolved, that person will feel neutral to you and cannot trigger you any longer. But life has a way to hooking us back into some people. The best thing to do is to try to understand the experience: What is it really about? Which of the above issues are you still playing out?
Once you understand what the contract is about, you can revoke the contract by seeking forgiveness of yourself, forgiveness of the other person and give them forgiveness as well. That will break the energetic link(s) between you and the other person and you will feel liberated. I hope that helps!

Is it possible for two or more soul aspects to have conflicting karma?
I once got really sick and lied to mom about it because she had other stuff going on with family. It felt really good to lie as if I had unbound myself from her karma of being sandwiched and always stuck in the middle. Mom somehow sensed something wasn’t right and rushed home. It was as if she had karma with me that I no longer had with her, but she managed to pull me back into her karma which felt very confusing.
My stepfather was acting more needy than usual as if he could replace me for mom to resolve her karma.
A part of me feels tired and done with karma and wouldn’t mind using my stepfather for my mom to resolve her karma with him instead of me.
