I'm going to start this by saying that I stand for democracy and like all things there are energetics and evolution involved in our political landscapes. Politics in my opinion are not something we should avoid or ignore when we are evolving. We can't separate our phsycial world from our Spiritual growth, so we must be present in what is happening around us.
We cannot say I am Spiritual, it doesn't affect me. Because it does. It not only affects us indvidually, it affects us collectively. We are all, and each, a part of, one way or another, what happens on this planet.
Each of us who takes a stand, helps to evolve the collective. What does 'a stand' look like? It will be just as different for each of us.
But what it isn't is ignoring what is happening around us. Your energy contributes, one way or the other.
