Conscious relationships are ego transcendent.
What's ego transcendence? : Ego transcendence is when we live in awareness and not through ignorance. This means that we go beyond our egos and our ego stories (which are usually based in fear, ignorance, and jealousy).
Conscious relationships leave room for open and honest communication without blaming the other partner for their feelings or the issues at hand. You're able to express your feelings to your partner without being afraid to express your vulnerabilities while also coming to a conclusion of acceptance and understanding, not necessarily a "resolution".
Unconscious relationships place blame on a partner(s) and place them in control of their emotions. We expect our partner to fix the problems at hand and we may tend to play the victim. There is not much room for acceptance or understanding.
Conscious relationship allow partners to grow and evolve individually. Partners can have their own hobbies, activities, friends and lives outside the relationship. There is less comparing and less jealousy. If these feelings come up they are discussed between the partners without blame being placed on either.
Unconscious relationships are enmeshed. There is no room to grow individually, there is only control, high expectations and then blame when those expectations are not reached.
Conscious relationships are rooted in growth, understanding, unconditional regard and love.
Unconscious relationships are rooted in codependency, control, and fear.
What do your relationships (past or present) resemble?
If you find you have more traits of an unconscious relationship there is room to change and make the switch! The work starts with you!
