Being seen as a lightworker can be scary. Not only does it mean that life as you’ve known it changes, but the people in your life need to get used to the “new you.” As a soul healer, I know the fear of being seen as a lightworker stops people from sharing their gifts. Even with their immediate family, let alone with the world. If this holds you back, first, know you’re not alone. And second, realize that facing the fear of being seen as a lightworker will liberate you. It will allow you to devote your heart to your life’s calling. To meet yourself at your edges. To create the most beautiful pieces of art. If you were not meant to shine, you wouldn’t feel the overwhelming feeling to share your gifts with the world.
The fear of being seen as a lightworker can manifest in your life in many ways. And usually, you don’t even realize that this is what holds you back. But if there is a yearning deep in your heart to devote your life to God’s vision, it’s crucial to face the fear of being seen as a lightworker. Otherwise, you won’t feel fulfilled knowing you show up only halfway. Keeping your thoughts, visions, and gifts to yourself.
The fear of being seen as a lightworker is usually subconscious. You might not know why you have it. Usually, it comes from your teenage years, upbringing, and past lives. As with most subconscious fears, it helps if someone else can help you heal them. That way, you can collapse a timeline and show up for your purpose.
Let me share some examples of how the fear of being seen as a lightworker manifests. You may feel that there is a glass ceiling that you can’t push through, no matter how much you try. Over time, this translates into stagnation, the thief of life force energy. You may get comfortable in your safety zone but feel uninspired and like you aren’t living up to your potential.
If you’re afraid of being seen, you also shut down in relationships. You don’t let other people see your authentic self, and you often aren’t even sure who you really are. You don’t speak your mind and heart because others might not get you. You project your fear on others, assuming they will criticize you, so it’s safer to project a watered-down version of you.
The fear of being seen as a lightworker also affects your relationship with abundance. You may not feel safe receiving prosperity in your life. This is directly linked to the fear of sharing your gifts with others. Source wants you to do the only thing you know best to do, and if you don’t act on it, it limits the flow of abundance in your life.
The fear of being seen as a lightworker can even affect your health. I’ve seen many people struggle with their health because you naturally hide if there is a physical limitation.
So, how can you change this? Let me share what causes people to fear being seen as lightworkers.
Let me share a secret with you – your soul is okay with being seen. Actually, being seen is natural to your soul and your essence. Everything tangible and lasting will always radiate and shine; others can see it. Others are touched by it, which inspires them to shine, too. This is what Light does. It illuminates, it is seen. However, it’s your ego that doesn’t like to be seen. Why? Because Light amplifies everything. It exposes the ego, the shadow, the insecurities, the limiting stories.
When you’re being seen as a lightworker, you’re being seen in your unique purest essence.
When others can truly see you, it’s not “you”; it’s not your personality; it’s the essence that shines through you. So, in a way, it’s completely impersonal. It’s the ego that is afraid to be exposed because it can’t hide in the limelight. Everything that is not real likes to be hidden. It likes to dwell in the shadows because the moment we see it, it disappears as if it never were there.
Keeping this in mind, let’s answer the two questions below to let go of the fear of being seen as a lightworker.
Imagine yourself being seen in the way you truly feel in your heart. Which part of you does freak out? Is it your soul or your ego? The ego is afraid to be seen because of something that would be exposed. Let me give you a couple of examples here.
I remember one gifted client who was afraid to be seen because being seen would amplify his exhaustion. When you create something from the energy of exhaustion, it isn’t your soul’s energy moving through it. There is the ego since the ego rules our choices when we disconnect from what and how we want to live our lives. Subconsciously, this client was (correctly) afraid that if he is being seen as a lightworker, others will also feel his exhaustion.
The fear of being seen as a lightworker doesn’t belong to your soul; it shows you what foundation you need to strengthen to shine.
Another gifted client was afraid to be seen as a lightworker because others would then see her in her power (which she didn’t let herself embrace). Thus, her fear of her power would be amplified, too. She didn’t feel she had the support in her life to face it, so she kept hiding before joining the Mystery School.
Therefore, I invite you to examine what your fear of being seen as a lightworker protects you from. What will be amplified as you share your gifts? What fear will become tangible, and you’d rather keep it hidden? And ultimately, what are you afraid other people would see in you that you’d prefer to keep hidden?
Look at anything that comes up as a signpost to what foundation you need to strengthen in you.
The second question to explore to let go of the fear of being seen as a lightworker is to contemplate what you don’t see in yourself. These are your gifts, strength, and beautiful aspects you haven’t yet claimed. This is your soul that desires to shine through your words, actions, and choices.
Perhaps you don’t recognize your impact on others or your inner strength. Maybe you focus on what doesn’t work and don’t see the gifts you already have.
What are you not claiming in yourself?
As you contemplate this, you realize there is no fear of being seen once you see yourself. When you see yourself correctly, you recognize the ego and the soul. You know what you’re good at and what you’re not. You know where you hide, and you don’t let yourself fall into stagnation.
