We All Have A Shadow Self

Glorious morning!

Today we will dive into a quote about our shadow self . ( We all have one ) The quote is from S.Kelly Harrell.

“ You don’t find the light by avoiding the darkness.”

No one likes to feel any part of darkness. What is darkness? No, not the sky at night, not that darkness. The darkness that each one of us has inside. Darkness is anger, hatred, vengeance, jealousy, blame, fear, and some forms of sorrow. Feeling sorry for ourselves can be a form of darkness we hold inside that prevents our light from shining. Everything is energy and vibrational frequency. To put it plainly, the lower emotions that I just mentioned above, emit low vibrating slower frequencies and lower vibrational frequencies don't feel good. In fact when we permit them ( yes it’s a choice ) we suffer. When we entertain the lower frequencies, our light gets blocked and put on hold. Facing the darkness in us or our  “shadow self “ is the only way to overcome it. If we want to become masters at living in the light or “ Christ consciousness “ we must first and foremost acknowledge that darkness in us. We can’t change what we don’t acknowledge.

So why do we all have this darkness in us? Welcome to planet earth, it comes with the package. The dark parts of us are really our teachers if we are not afraid to admit that we have a shadow self.  Let’s take a simple example of someone who is having a disagreement with you and is getting combative. How you respond is either from your shadow self or your christed self. You can either choose to walk away and not participate in the darkness the other person is putting out OR you stay and argue and give back the same lower frequencies. What would you do if you cut someone off in traffic by accident because you didn't see them in your blind spot and that person laid on the horn and continued to follow you cursing and wanting to get back at you?

Let’s say the person followed you to a gas station and when you got out the person started screaming at you saying all sorts of derogatory names and was getting aggressive. There are 2 ways to handle it. You can either have a spirit of a fighter and respond to the situation as a challenge that you need to win or you could have a spirit of peace and genuinely apologize and say “ I am so sorry I did not see you” The other way of responding, the “ fighter spirit” could go very bad and possibly tragic. Whatever energy you give to it will yield the results of that frequency.

When another person is acting from their own shadow self and is in a triggered state, the best thing to do is to come from your "christed" self, your higher self. We have all been in situations where we get triggered in a negative way but how we respond creates our reality. When we respond back to a person's shadow with our own shadow, we miss the lesson that is in the challenging situation and will ultimately have the same situations show up. We create our reality. If you want to grow and master your life, the shadow needs awareness and needs to be starved of its power. We starve the beast by acting from a higher place.

I recently had someone get aggressive and hostile in my energy field and I walked away immediately because I knew I did not want that darkness to invade my being. If this was some years back , I would have taken it as a challenge that I would have made sure I won, even at the expense of giving up my light in exchange for the darkness. I do not do that dance anymore because our true power is in the light. If we are dishing out darkness we are actively inviting it into our lives. Who actually wants darkness? Not me.

There is enough darkness on this planet and I no longer want to add to it. I want to add more light. How about you? Do you have darkness inside that has not been healed and your triggers seem to take you over?
