How to Overcome Fear of the Unknown

Dearest hearts the fear of what may come can be seen as justifiable and reasonable but when you live your life fearing that which may or may not come, you deny yourself the opportunity to be and enjoy where you are at this moment. The only space you can occupy is now, therefore, when you fear the unknown, you’re preventing yourself from experiencing joy on any level.

Instead of fearing the unknown before, during and after it’s encounter, the spiritual seeker stays in the present where all is already known

One of the hallmarks of the spiritual life is the ability, desire and commitment to live in a state of bliss or joy. Instead of fearing the unknown before, during and after it’s encounter, the spiritual seeker stays in the present where all is already known. Since they move from a place of known into a place of known there’s no need to lower their vibration by stepping into fear.

Fear can only enter your life if you’re trying to make something that isn’t into something that is.

In other words, you form a desire for a particular outcome, “I desire to feel happy.” However, instead of thinking happy thoughts or engaging in activities that bring you joy, you start complaining about your life and blaming others for your unhappiness. All the while stating to everyone that you are not happy but desire to be so. Because you’re not a vibrational match to happiness, happiness cannot be attracted to you. Like attracts like so you will attract more to complain about, more to feel sad about and more people to blame for your circumstances. You will not receive happiness but you will receive your vibrational match. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what you didn’t want so now fear enters the picture. “How did this happen to me? This is exactly what I didn’t want. Life always finds a way to disappoint me. I’ll always be unhappy. I don’t know what’s coming next but it probably won’t be good.”

When you are aware of what you’re doing, saying and feeling at any point along the way you become the conscious commander of your life

Coming from a place of darkness dictates that you will receive only darkness yet the unenlightened use that as an excuse to fear. Today we invite you to join the many who have chosen to be responsible for their lives. When you stay present to this moment you’re able to monitor your vibrational output. When you are aware of what you’re doing, saying and feeling at any point along the way you become the conscious commander of your life. Being present to what is allows you to choose the highest vibrational thought and feeling. From this place of elevation, you are busy creating your next moment. When you stand in the space of love, joy, and peace with gratitude in your heart you call to yourself circumstances that reflect all that you are.

Pull up a chair and invite fear onto your analyst’s couch. Begin being the most alert observer you have ever known and trace the fear to its root

Fearing the unknown is only possible when you believe that the universe is random and chaotic. Since the universe is both orderly and predictable there can be no fear over future or unknown events because that which is coming is a reflection of or a match to that which you’ve been rehearsing with your thoughts and reinforcing with your emotions. Every time you find yourself becoming afraid of that which may be coming you must treat that fear as an early warning wake up call. Since you will only experience the end product of your thoughts you must go on high alert when you feel fear. However, you will not run from fear, you will investigate it. Pull up a chair and invite fear onto your analyst’s couch. Begin being the most alert observer you have ever known and trace the fear to its root. Ask yourself the following questions about the fear you’re feeling. “Is it legitimate? Is there a reasonable chance of this occurring?” if the answer is no, then be more mindful of your thoughts of doom and gloom. You must simply refuse to entertain thoughts of negativity or darkness. If the answer is yes, then you must follow a different course. Now ask yourself, “Why? Why do I believe this fear? What am I doing that will make this a reality? What could I be doing instead that would help me create a new reality? And why am I allowing negativity to have a stronghold in my life?”

Fear of the unknown can only occur if you believe that circumstances, your life and the desires of your heart are beyond your control

Once you have asked yourself these serious questions you must stay present and in charge of your reality. No one has control over your life but you, therefore, you must stay the course and stay aligned with what is desired as you refuse to consider any thought or feeling that is out of alignment. Fear of the unknown can only occur if you believe that circumstances, your life and the desires of your heart are beyond your control. Since everything is dependent on you and your relationship and reaction to it, there is no unknown element to life. Be present, stay aligned with the highest vibration and trust that everything is working out for your highest good.
