A Spiritual look at Cryptocurrency

I thought it would be interesting to take a look at cryptocurrency from a spiritual point of view. 

As we move ever more into the new energy of the age of Aquarius, we will see new and original ways of being, doing business and interacting with each other starting to appear and proliferate.

The astrological sign of Aquarius is synonymous with originality, independence, and freedom, so that's the theme we are likely to see moving forwards in both technology and community, and that's one of the reasons that I find cryptocurrency a very exciting prospect for the future.

Now before I go any further, I'm aware that a lot of people, especially from the older generations, are very suspicious of any sort of digital currency, and I certainly do agree that caution is always required, and discernment should be used in all financial matters. I do however wish to stress that there are two different types of digital currency emerging which are very different from each other, and purely on the spiritual level I feel it's important to understand the difference between the two. Just to clarify from the get-go, I do not give financial advice and none of this should be taken as such.

Digital currency itself describes all cryptocurrencies and other digital currencies which are NOT cryptocurrencies. 

Cryptocurrency is the type of digital currency that generally carry the Aquarian energy of innovation & freedom that I associate with the new age we are moving into, but not all digital currencies do that. 

Privacy coins like Monero, Pirate Chain and LiteCash are a special type of cryptocurrency offering complete anonymity and maximum privacy, and are another subset of crypto again. In my opinion, these extra-private  cryptocurrencies offer real hope for a freer and more decentralised world where the common people like you and I are no longer trapped in a money system manipulated by big business, greedy governments and their cronies. 

Again this is why it's important to distinguish between cryptocurrency and government controlled digital currencies, which would potentially take us in the opposite direction, removing any kind of privacy or anonymity from every single transaction, down to giving your children pocket money! This would give governments the opportunity to levy fees, taxes or restrict trade as they see fit, and no matter how unfair, in an instant. That is a very dangerous level of power to give anyone over your money, and to me that would be a huge overreach and abuse of power. The idea that a government could push a button and remove your ability to buy food for your family is honestly terrifying, and the complete opposite of the aims and ideals of the new energy we are moving into.

As we know however, there are dark forces working against us as we evolve and ascend as a species, who wish to retain ultimate control over us all, so it's not surprising that these same forces would try to hijack or badmouth any system that would offer us freedom from their tyranny. I feel that is the reason for all the headlines and news stories we've seen recently announcing doom, and that cryptocurrency should be avoided at all costs.

This is scaremongering in my opinion, and part of an ongoing campaign by the powers that should not be to try to retain their power over us and prevent us from escaping their control through manipulation of thought, belief and the withholding of knowledge.

So, is cryptocurrency the future?

In my view, it's definitely a step in the right direction. Crypto, and in particular privacy coins offer us a way to escape from the controlled financial systems which keep us in a much lower energetic level of abundance than we should be able to achieve. They present us with a new horizon, and challenge us to be brave enough to step outside of the control grid and take responsibility for our lives and our choices. This requires a level of emotional & spiritual maturity that some people aren't ready for yet, but many are.

Private cryptocurrency transactions will not be regulated by Mummy-Daddy government, so it'll be time to put on our big girl panties and step into the power and responsibility that we previous abdicated to our "rulers" by default.

On my own spiritual journey, as I've learned more about myself and the nature of the universe, I've found myself leaning more and more towards anarchy (which just means no rulers, not chaos!) and voluntaryism, because it's the only thing that makes sense. The energy of the Aquarian age bring us the ideal conditions to assert ourselves, to finally grow up and become the wise, compassionate, and independent spiritual beings we were always meant to be. It's not a fait accompli, but the potential is staring us in the face, daring us to be strong and brave enough to take the first step. 

What I see for the future is the potential for a more cooperative and community based world, where people have a number of different methods of exchange and barter - perhaps gold and silver coins will make a comeback for day to day transactions for a while - and at some point, on the much longer term, I see human society evolving to a point where we no longer need money or currency at all. 

We may not be there yet, and goodness knows Rome wasn't built in a day, but the ability to make fast, private transactions using these new, innovative cryptocurrencies and privacy coins, away from the prying eyes and greedy fingers of those who would wish to control and repress us, certainly feels like a step in the right direction.

Again, I want to stress that none of the above is intended as financial advice and should not be taken as such. This is purely my own opinion from my own personal and spiritual standpoint. 

I encourage you to do your own detailed research if you are interested in the subject of cryptocurrency. When we rely on others to tell us "the truth" we are easily misled.
