The sphere of relationships in 2026

Neither conservative relationships within family and marriage nor the very liberal, non-committal relationships between men and women will receive favourable streams in the time ahead. Long established constraints and searches for quick release with their transient, fervent fire will lead to growing difficulties, depression and disassociative disorders. The pressures on health arising from unresolved, awkward, fixed and dependent relationships are often connected with chronic illnesses and can even produce severe cellular degeneration and schizophrenic processes.

However, the path to loneliness, to becoming completely alone, is also taking on pathological characteristics, and many people will have to newly think, re-think, mentally picture and form their plane of relationship in 2026. Processes of detachment are noticeable in interplay with new possibilities, which can, however, only be achieved slowly.

2026 will reveal an incipient light and joyful culture, particularly on the relationship plane, and this is for the first time in the history of the many previous decades. However, the work and courageous development of awareness that shaping relationships requires must not be forgotten in this seemingly hopeful prediction.

A courageous seizing of life with a stepping beyond depressive episodes, petty fears and hurdles of vulnerability will be necessary for the start of a subtler, more connected relationship culture to enter life. Upholding the vision of forming relationships in a rational way will be accompanied by a streaming in of very beautiful, light, etheric forces.

On the one side, stand the traditional relationships that mainly tend towards fixation, which all too easily lead to constraints and blocks in the emotional-mental soul with all manner of hidden aggression, and on the other side there are the waves of promiscuity, debauchery, of progressive, seemingly totally non-committal relationship culture. The conservative atmosphere and the totally promiscuous atmosphere of relationships stand facing each other in the coming year, and they will both be viewed critically by very many people and even experienced as unsuitable for the future. Neither a retreat to traditional structures nor an emotional arbitrariness in relationships with non-commitment can satisfy the yearning world in which human beings live in 2026. In each individual, both young as well as old, courageous forming of mental pictures and setting of ideal aims will allow those forces, which carry people beyond the habitual, fixated bodily feelings, to flourish and steer them towards a connection that is truer to reality.

In this coming year a kind of light ether activity, a first subtle crystalline shimmer lives into humanity from above to below, so that people can find contact more easily and experience a joy in the moment of perception. Joy of the senses rather than sensual desire will often take the upper hand. Encounters that are experienced as beautiful and actually have the value of building up health, will take place in large numbers.

From where do these forces that are so favourably disposed towards joyous encounters and relationships come from? They actually arise from all the suffering caused by the various abusive structures of the past. Cases of sexual abuse will be less frequent in the future. What are the psychological and physical forms of abuse in general? Why do parents use violence to bind their children to their interpretation of faith and their personal needs? It is not out of good feelings of relationship but out of deficiencies and inability due to unprocessed fears and ultimately through a failure of life that children must be brought into the various degrees of abuse. The weaknesses of the own self accumulates the energy of the children, and it is not uncommon for parents of a daughter, who emancipates herself at almost 40 years old, to report her as being part of a cult, – note the ‘child’ of nearly 40 years old – and in this way they exert family pressure. The fear of living in freedom and the lack of awareness of the reality of spirit give rise to all kinds of strained and ultimately even mean coercions of will. Christmas can then be the festival in which the greatest pressures are exerted on children who have long since grown up.

People suffer under the various abusive structures and attachments. Children cannot sufficiently unfold their creative forces in such structures. However, individuals who are affected by such abusive structures can emancipate themselves with the help of the spirit, overcome the feelings of guilt and experience light moments in encounters with other people. As the abusive structures in the coming year 2026 become more and more unsuitable, new etheric forces are awakening that accompany people from above to below to a beautiful relationship. It is a light ether-sphere, a beautiful being that will increasingly lift itself into a resurrection.

The lies that were manipulatively spread through Germany and many other parts of the world during the corona period continue to reduce trust in governments. The value of determining one’s own relationships and circumstances is increasing as a need in many people, and it is now a new light ether-sphere that fulfils this need and brightens people so that they can steer their relationships more buoyantly.

The experience of the soul realm in 2026

Many people will find themselves in groups and still experience a kind of lack in their soul-feelings, because these groups cannot fulfil their needs.

Individuals who engage in a sufficiently deep exploration of the various aspects of life will, for the first time in 2026, develop a very specific, particular, sensitive feeling. It can be described as a feeling of self with a conscious view onto life. This is defined by a visionary direction of gaze that steers the thoughts and the senses toward life, enabling individuals to learn to make decisions with careful attunement. Regarding relationships, individuals should not take on too much, yet neither should they retreat into isolation, as if slipping away from life’s confrontations. It is like looking out of the trenches into an open field, a cautious gaze that nevertheless seriously assesses the situation. If the rearing out of the trench were absent, and the gaze were not to sweep across the threatening field, human possibilities would diminish.

A first kind of visionary seeing, which is not yet directed towards the supersensible world but nevertheless explores the possibilities rationally and calmly, will accompany some people with particular predestination in 2026. Individuals should not run out into the open field yet, for they do not know what dangers will attack from all sides but they must look out with their eyes, begin to organise small steps and in this way develop their own guidance in life. The more people accompany relationships with rationality and yet subtle, empathetic soul-feelings the more they will manifest solid, health-stabilising and long-lasting success in this area.

Falling into a relationship or avoiding relationships by fleeing into solitude are the two extremes that can set people back considerably in the coming year. The healthy middle arises from shaping relationships, in connection with thematic content, and accompanied by aesthetic conditions. People will travel and they will come back enlivened in their relationships in many different ways. Different religious denominations and beliefs may encounter one another in the coming year, and even nations that are almost at odds with each other will establish many honourable contacts through an establishment of personal acquaintances and a new sense of connection. Joy lies in this view point, but it must be carefully determined by the individual and does not permit emotional excesses.

Personal human relationships are not happy or unhappy by chance. For the first time this year, ideals can be thought and created into concrete mental pictures.

The differentiation between genuine connection and instinctive dependence is crucial for this relationship culture. In the coming year, much more than before, that which connects will be perceived as valuable and that which binds as an obstacle.

An inner experiencing of this visionary view onto life and the possibilities of relationships reveals itself out of profoundness of the heart and gives an initial expression of the heart centre. It is linked to very calm yet grounded mental pictures that correspond to the fifth centre. Each individual person is able to learn to better define the scope of their relationship because they experience themselves in a feeling of self and learn to empathetically perceive others.

Eyes often reveal whether people are in relationship or whether they pull back into themselves. Here, eyes reveal conscious seeing.
