Fear as a God and How to Work with Him

A Shamanic Approach to the Year Ahead


We’re dealing with boatloads of fear on the Earth plane. Given that things are getting crazier, I’m offering a shamanic perspective to help us prepare for this year.

 

I’m writing on the 5D level to remind you that Fear & his brother, Dread, are divinities on the astral plane. The Greeks called them Phobos & Deimos, respectively, and knew how to honor them because they were still connected to indigenous shamanic knowing.
These gods are protectors & allies on their light side, and disrupters & destroyers on their dark side.

Here’s something you need to know: Fear & Dread can also be used by other forces for manipulation agendas. That means fear-based “facts” are generally 50 percent reality & 50 percent illusion.


Today’s Darkest Fears

Forces for ill are having a heyday freaking us out completely through fear-inducing “news” promulgated through the media. Why? Certain interdimensional beings get food when we suffer. Phobos & Deimos also get residuals from it, so they’re wound into it. Obviously, certain humans also benefit from manipulating others.

Pick your favorite fear now being featured, or implied, on the world stage:

• The financial system is about to crumble

• The environment is about to collapse

• There won’t be enough food to eat or water to drink, and bad people will control both

• We’ll soon be decimated by some kind of plague

• Our country (whichever one you’re in) is going to be invaded

• Nuclear weapons may be detonated

• You’ll get a dreaded dis-ease

• You’ll get Alzheimer’s

• You’ll end in financial ruin, become a bag person & die alone in pain & discomfort

• If you don’t look a certain way, you won’t be loved

• If you don’t ace your school tests, you won’t get into a good school & you’ll become a bag person & die alone in pain & discomfort

• You’re going to be assaulted if you walk in secluded areas

• You’re going to be part of a mass shooting if you go to college (yes, one young person I know is THAT traumatized by the media spectacles)

Etc…

50 percent of each issue is sheer hype & illusion, and that part’s being laced with fear to traumatize us into making desperate decisions, accepting militarization, agreeing to laws we don’t know are being passed, acquiescing to genetic manipulation, succumbing to the technologizing of the human organism & more.

Due to the extreme fear static, we’re not dealing clearly & effectively with the 50 percent of what’s going on that’s actually real. We’re being spurred to jump to worst-case scenarios & timelines that don’t need to manifest. The media trumps up such frenzy daily. Then it becomes contagious.
In fact, think about the disastrous scenarios that were once being broadcast that never really manifested or died down quickly.

OK, now, TAKE A BREATH

Evolving Our (Shamanic) Attitude Toward Fear

On the shamanic level, it’s far easier for the more “pleasant” deities to obtain their manna, their offerings, from humans, like Joy, Ecstasy, Pleasure, Fortune, Happiness. We all love those goddesses & are happy to invoke them & give them our heart.

But Phobos & Deimos exist, too. Someone in some dimension (was it YOU when you were an uppity angel?) created them, and now we must deal with them. Because no one thinks to honor them with offerings of any kind directly, they must possess us in order to get their “food.”

We’ve actually developed a combative relationship with fear. “I’m going to eradicate fear from my life!” we proclaim grandly.

Once in ceremony when I was poised to do just that, Phobos archly said, “Are you sure?” “What do you mean?” I asked. “I’m your warning system,” he advised. True. I stopped the procedure.

 

Create an Altar to Fear & Dread

OK, spiritual folks, a secret altar to Phobos & Deimos is a better idea than trying to fight them. It’s the same principle that ancient & indigenous cultures have used: Honor the challenging deities directly.

You can create a simple altar with images of these beings taken from ancient art, or images that represent fear & dread to you. This altar shouldn’t be prominent, but rather placed in the far corner of your home, under something else, in a cabinet or closet, or outside at the exterior of your property.

 

Light a candle to them daily or weekly. Make some kind of simple food offering to them. Speak to them with respect. Tell them you honor them, and ask that they be in right relationship with you as your allies & protectors.

Bringing the Feminine to Fear

Old initiations designed to get one to “overcome fear” became combative engagements against a great god & that was not the answer, then… or now.

For example, I have a past life memory that I died in sarcophagus ritual in ancient Egypt. I was shut in a stone coffin; the purpose was to have me “transcend” fear & my body & go into the astral plane for a journey. I was not able to “overcome,” however, and I died a horrific death in panic.

A client of mine has a memory, also in ancient Egypt, of having died in an initiation that required her to swim with crocodiles in a dark maze-like pool. The reason for her demise was, similarly, that she was not able to overcome her fear & she panicked.
Armed combat is another space where the “initiand” is tested to overcome fear. So are sports or any other competitive endeavor.

 

What’s missing here are the feminine codes of compassion, in other words, an attitude of love toward oneself for feeling fear. Initiations designed to “strengthen us for the next phase” devolved into hyper-masculinized zones of harshness & trauma induction.

Much of life on planet earth is all about that. In post-modern environments we graduate from school and must go out & slay dragons in the competitive market place. Our young people are often terrified from day 1 out the door.

We need to love the one who is feeling fear. We need to calm ourselves through breathing & meditation so we may deal with the real 50 percent of any challenge before us with wisdom.

Managing Fear on the Group Level

If you find yourself in a group setting where there’s fear or panic, I’ve been shown that the best way to handle it is to stand up and state: “We’re in the fear energy right now. To help us shift this, I’m going to sit here quietly & begin to deliberately send out the feeling tone of love. I invite others in the room who feel called to join in this activity while the rest of the discussion continues. This will help us to lift.”

Such an intervention will go a long way toward shifting the energy in the room – the emotions will calm, new, higher solutions will be able to penetrate people’s minds & the feeling of doom or downward spiral will reverse out.

As things ratchet up in the coming months, we may find ourselves witnessing mass fear programming being prumulgated that’s increasingly intense. Remember, 50 percent of any fear-inducing situation, be it personal or communal, is illusion. Use what’s been presented here to get clear & centered so you can deal with the 50 percent that’s reality more effectively.

 

Here are some other support resources to get out of fear & into positive manifesting:
