The light brings out the shadows!
Your light might make others feel uncomfortable because of the healing you have done on yourself. This is because the light shines on our brother and sisters' shadows. We are each other's mirrors to grow, evolve and ascend.
We are mirroring aspects within others that they too need to heal, and the light naturally brings out shadows. You will trigger people when you begin to step into your authenticity. Your bravery will become a mirror to their own insecurities. Remember these are just their own projections.
Step into your mission and be your authentic self regardless of who it triggers or offends - that is not your problem! When we step into our authenticity we automatically inspire others to do the same thing. We are planting subconscious seeds, even if it takes some time. Know that where you are at in this moment, is exactly where you need to be.
I think many of us have a love/hate relationship with change. A lot of people do not like change or welcomed change. With change comes the unknown, and for some people uncertainty can be difficult to accept. Change often involves risks and this adds to the challenge of embracing change.
Using mindfulness is one way we can develop a more positive outlook on change. What is mindfulness? It is the act of focusing on the present moment in a nonjudgmental way. It involves not being attached to certain outcomes while noticing and accepting what is in the "present now."
Change is the only thing that is constant in life. Look at the Moon, the seasons, the changes in weather. Just like the ever changing seasons, life and people change too. The more we embrace change and transformation the better our lives become!
Your "shadow" is the side of your personality containing parts of yourself that you don't want to admit to having.
It's our unconscious side at first. When we become self aware we then recognize our shadow self. Often the shadow is thought of as negative, this isn't really the case. Your shadow is what you perceive as bad, weak or dark about yourself, therefore hiding and denying it from yourself and others.
One person's shadow self may have elements of manipulation, anger, fear, laziness, cruelty or rage, you may also hide your strengths like: independence, emotional sensitivity or personal power. Facing our own shadows within is not an easy process. For me personally, going through The Dark Night of the Soul was the hardest thing that I have ever done!
Why do I need to know my shadow Side?
We can become more balanced and whole when we recognize and face our shadow.
For instance, if we fully accept our sadness, we can also fully accept our joy and be able to find a middle ground of contentment. If we face and accept our anger, we can set boundaries in place to protect us against our triggers.
When you know and accept your shadow side you will also improve relationships in your life.
What we can accept and understand about ourselves, we are then able to accept and understand in others. This gives us compassion and empathy towards others in similar situations. When we deny and repress things about ourselves, they do NOT disappear! Instead, they can grow into power and fear and cause us even more difficulties throughout life. Our repressed shadow self will often do this through psychological projection.
What is Psychological Projection?
Psychological projection is when we attribute an unconscious feeling, emotion, thought or even talent of our own onto another person. For instance, you might feel like everyone around you is selfish and lazy. You blame them for never getting ahead in life because they are too self absorbed to help you.
If you looked at yourself authentically and honestly, you would likely find it’s YOU yourself who have a tendency to be inactive and self centered not them. When you look at what you are constantly blaming others for tends to be a direct route to your shadow self. What are the things you don't like in other people? Does this characteristic exist within yourself too? Can you think of a situation where you did something similar?
How to know your shadow Self?
Our shadow is usually the first things we face when we start spiritual healing sessions. I provide a safe space where you can talk to me non judgmentally and confidently about everything and anything. As i'm not personally invested in your life, often times my clients will blurt out things that they didn't even know they were thinking or feeling.
Getting it out of you is one of the first steps to healing and knowing yourself. Would you like to explore your shadow side in a safe, friendly environment with a professional spiritual healer?
