Rose Rosetree:
What do you think is holding people back from learning about the Shift into the Age Of Awakening that happened on the 21st of December, 2012? It was such a big deal and has changed so much about how the world works, and how humanity functions - yet I still only see credible information about it on your website and in your books...
Rose Rosetree
Such a big question deserves an equally big answer, preferably a definitive answer. Although I can’t give you that, Theodore, I can offer four ideas about why more people don’t yet recognize that every human alive is living in the Age of Awakening.
#1. The changes that occurred are SUBTLE. They involve consciousness, not external drama, nor anything else that’s obvious to our physical senses.
#2. Adapting to what’s different in this new era on earth requires discernment, an interest in what I call “truth value.” Many popular ideas about life are true, and pleasing, and popular. Yet they have low truth value.
In order to appreciate what’s different in this Age of Awakening, we’ll be ahead of the pack when we start caring about high truth value. Otherwise, one has no incentive to open up to learning about what’s true now. Inadvertently one sacrifices one’s huge potential for improving life, a magnificent potential that is now ours to claim.
#3. A well established “Enlightenment Establishment” keeps repeating, re-tweeting, etc., mainstream ideas from the era before the Shift on 12-21-12. That era I call “The Age of Faith,” in contrast to our current “Age of Awakening.”
Until folks develop enough curiosity to think outside the box – or boxes, such as pop psychology, traditional religious teachings, and psychic development, loyalty may prove stronger than the desire to learn. Or to experience authentic growth.
#4. Inertia is a big factor as well. Lately I’ve been reading “Napoleon’s Buttons: 17 Molecules that Changed History.” (My rave review on Goodreads will follow, one of these days.)
Between 1500 and 1700 alone, more than 2 million sailors died of scurvy. After the first research study was published in England, proving that citrus products could cure (and prevent) scurvy, it took 40 YEARS before a law was passed to feed sailors citrus products.
In conclusion, Theodore, you can congratulate yourself on using your independence of thought and your potential for leadership, learning how to make some very small adjustments in order to succeed at your chosen path in life.
I wish everybody knew that Energy Spirituality® is not a path, any more than it's a religion or a cult. All my books about Energy Spirituality make use of energy-related skills that work now in the Age of Awakening. In books, workshops, and personal sessions, the goal is to help people succeed on their chosen paths.
Goodreaders besides Theodore, if you’re not willing yet to change a thing, at least open your mind long enough to read something. I’d recommend Seeking Enlightenment in the Age of Awakening.

Rose Rosetree:
Hi Rose...I loved your book "Read People Deeper: Body Language + Face Reading + Auras" and refer to it often. It's so useful. I was wondering, why did you decide to write a book where all three (Body Language, Face Reading, Aura Reading) are included together, rather than just teaching the separately?

Rose Rosetree:
Dear Rose, thank you for answering our questions here. When I read "Seeking Enlightenment in the Age of Awakening," I had a one-on-one session with you soon after, which helped me understand any questions that I had so much better. My question is: When it comes to Enlightenment Teachers, do you think it's important that they're accessible to their students? Is it a red flag if they're not? It seems important to me.
