As we step into 2025, many of us are wondering—what is this year really about? What themes, lessons, and challenges will shape the world, and how can we navigate them?
When we tapped into the collective consciousness to explore these questions, the response was layered, insightful, and (at times) exasperated. Here’s what came through for the United States, the world as a whole, and each of us individually as we move into this pivotal year.
The Biggest Lesson for the U.S. in 2025: A Wake-Up Call on Unity
The energy coming through about America’s collective lesson was… well, let’s just say it wasn’t exactly hopeful.
💬 “We thought you’d be further along.”
That was the first sentiment shared. The guides and higher consciousness watching over the United States seemed almost exhausted, like mentors who have tried every possible way to help their student learn a lesson—but the student just won’t get it.
And that lesson? True Unity.
Not unity in the sense of everyone agreeing, but unity in the sense of recognizing that we’re in this together. That our survival, progress, and collective well-being depend on understanding that we don’t have to be the same—but we do have to figure out how to coexist.
Instead, they observed that in 2025, we’re still engaging in divisive, fear-based individualism—constantly trying to prove who is more special, who deserves more recognition, and who is right.
Why Are We Failing at Unity?
The guides pointed to a specific issue:
👉 We’re caught in a cycle of "outs-specialing" each other.
Rather than coming together in shared humanity, we’re stuck in a competition for uniqueness—a need to be the most seen, the most important, or the most justified in our beliefs.
They also highlighted a stark difference between past and present:
🔥 “Tragedy used to bring you together. You used to see your humanity in each other. Now, even in disaster, you’re more divided than ever.”
They referenced natural disasters like the California wildfires, where instead of focusing on solutions and mutual aid, energy is scattered into blame, judgment, and social media outrage.
And they made something very clear:
2025 is the year they step back and let us figure it out.
It’s like a parent finally throwing their hands up and saying, “Fine. You won’t listen? Do it your way and see what happens.”
The World’s Lesson in 2025: Unity, but With Progress
When we expanded the question to the entire collective consciousness, we got a much different answer.
🌍 The world is also learning about unity, but unlike the U.S., many other countries are actually getting it.
In fact, the global community is finding unity partially in reaction to the chaos in America.
💬 “They are unifying in their humanity, and in their almost… pity for what’s happening in the U.S.”
While many parts of the world still have struggles, there is more willingness to adapt, evolve, and compromise for the greater good.
For example:
✅ Governments are recognizing flaws in their systems and making adjustments.
✅ Countries are prioritizing well-being over rigid ideologies.
✅ There is a collective acknowledgment that no one political or economic system is perfect, but progress comes from being flexible.
In contrast, the U.S. remains stubbornly unwilling to adjust, clinging to outdated structures and power struggles.
The takeaway?
🌟 The world is moving forward—whether or not America chooses to keep up.
How Can We As Individuals Align with Unity in 2025?
For those of us who actually want to get on the right side of this collective lesson, the guides gave one clear word:
👉 Empathy.
💡 “Put yourself in other people’s shoes. Get out of your own head, your own house, your own narrative. Imagine what it would feel like to live someone else’s reality.”
Ways to Cultivate More Unity in Your Daily Life:
✅ Step out of your personal bubble. Have conversations with people who have different perspectives—without immediately trying to prove them wrong.
✅ Pause before reacting. Social media outrage isn’t activism. Ask yourself, "Am I contributing to unity or division?"
✅ Focus on the real crisis at hand. Whether it’s wildfires, war, or social issues—ask yourself what truly matters in the moment, rather than getting caught up in blame.
✅ Forgiveness and understanding. The ability to say, “I didn’t get it right this time, let’s adjust and try again” is a key component of collective progress.
Bottom line: Instead of trying to out-special each other, let’s try understanding each other.
What Are the Energies of Early 2025 & How Can We Cope?
The first half of 2025 is going to feel chaotic and overwhelming for almost everyone—regardless of personal beliefs or circumstances.
🔥 “It doesn’t matter who you are or where you live, you’re going to feel the weight of this energy.”
The image we received? A stick figure with its head on fire.
The biggest challenge? Not getting swept up in the chaos.
How to Stay Grounded in Early 2025:
💆 Find your calming practice.
Meditation, breathwork, sound healing, yoga—anything that slows your mind down and takes you out of the storm.
🌳 Spend time in nature.
Walks in the woods, grounding exercises, or simply getting fresh air will help reset your nervous system.
📵 Unplug when needed.
The media thrives on keeping us in a constant state of fear and reactivity. Take breaks.
🧘 Explore Eastern philosophies.
Practices like Taoism, Buddhism, and Qi Gong are deeply aligned with the energy we need to cultivate—slowness, presence, and detachment from chaos.
✨ Embrace imperfection.
The world is shifting. Instead of clinging to “how things should be,” embrace flexibility and focus on what actually works.
Final Thoughts: What’s Next?
2025 is a make-or-break year when it comes to unity, awareness, and personal responsibility.
🌍 The world is learning to work together, even if it means leaving the U.S. behind.
🇺🇸 The United States is at a crossroads—will we finally wake up to unity, or continue to spiral into division?
💡 As individuals, we have the power to shift the energy by choosing empathy, presence, and a willingness to evolve.
👉 So where do you stand? Are you ready to align with the lesson of 2025?
