To love is to take something or someone as a part of yourself. To fear is to sense or perceive separation.
Years ago, as I set about consciously crafting my life I chose to base it upon love. To build my life based on the guiding principles and styles of love; a Heart-Centered philosophy. Yet in a world of polarity, we learn through contrast. We cannot know the light without the darkness. These various realities exist because of their opposite.
For so long my focus has been upon love and its many nuances. Building, testing, and learning. When I sat down with my spirit guides and began channeling for what June’s collective energy and guidance was, one word came through: fear.
At first my response was not only comprehension but also the emotion – fear. How could we be guided by Spirit to dedicate a month to fear? The very concept was scary to me. However, through multiple channelings and fresh research what I found was that indeed time spent healing our relationship with fear can offer us not only a great understanding of its polar opposite, love, but also reduce any concerns or fears we may have.
So, I not only invite you to learn a bit more about the nature of fear within this collective reading, but join me and others as we dive into our relationship with fear and bring healing and clarity through our Weekly Energy Readings. Taking what we start here and enriching our lives throughout the course of the month.
Love:
As I said, we learn through contrast. To understand fear more fully, we can actually begin with love. Love is the vibration found within the heart of Creation, the Anahata. It is to take something or someone as a part of yourself. Thus, it is connection and union.
The perception that….Your wellbeing is now a part of my wellbeing. I cannot be 100% content and happy unless you are doing well as well. What you want matters to me, because you matter to me.
Thus, within the eyes of Spirit – you matter. You are loved unconditionally. Which means that anything you say, do, think, choose, have done, or will do…nothing can break this love. No mistakes intentional or otherwise stop you from being loved in this very moment, just as you are.
Fear:
As the opposite to love, fear is not union but rather separation. Since love is our truth then fear is our illusion. Thus, it is through fear that we discover our basis for this life. For it is our sense of separation or more specifically our sense of self (a separation from our collective of Creation) which enables us to live a 3-dimensional reality. Our ego is fueled and sustains our human concept of self.
To have a life here on Mother Earth we must perceive separation from others. And yet, it is through the confrontation and healing of our fears that we attain not only our joys, but also our soul purpose. Since our lives are designed for us to follow our joy; that fulfillment which comes as we align with our soul purpose – the desires which led to our incarnation.
Since fear triggers our learning, it is a tool for expansion. To learn: love, truth, Creation, a sense of self, and even oneness.
Our Relationship with Fear:
As we live our lives we discover and cultivate fears. These fears are rooted in the lessons that we have come to this world to learn. In addition, like any emotion, fear is a messenger. When it rises up within us it’s calling upon us for care – an opportunity to practice love.
Like a small child, fear calls to us for aid. If we have followed the lead of those who came before us or looked to society’s messages, chances are we’ve been taught to neglect this scared child. To turn away and banish or push through neglectfully. We have become afraid of fear; rather than seeing it as a gift within this life.
Fear teaches us, warns and guides us, it leads us to our safety, healing, and joy. Whether it’s a legitimate fear because there are those things and people who are so separate from the rest of life that we are indeed unsafe. Or if it’s a perception of division which can block our movement forwards, fear is a valid emotion and serves a very real purpose. Fear isn’t demanding to remain a part of our life, merely to be heard and respected. It’s here to help us do more than just stay alive but to also learn how to personally thrive.
June’s Energy:
Each month I ask my spirit guides what sort of energy Spirit is bringing into our collective environment. Energy meant to teach, guide, and help. By actively participating in the healing of your relationship with fear you can not only come to learn and understand it better, but also reduce it. To listen to the messages and utilize them to enact greater love for yourself. To liberate yourself from the toxic messages which weaken us in the face of our fears. To come to know not only fear better but through polarity, come to know love better too.
I invite you to join this community through our Weekly Energy Readings and journey this month together. As we take deeper and deeper dives into our relationship with fear. You can also get started with this amazingly informative video about the nature of fear from spiritual teacher Teal Swan…
