Why Am I Attracting Angry And Aggressive People?




QUESTION: Hello, I wanted to ask about anger and aggression. The more peaceful I become and the further into my spiritual work I progress the more anger and aggression I am experiencing from people around me - some of these people dont know me personally, but I experience their anger when I go out and about? I would be interested to hear what you think about this situation and whether anyone else is experiencing this as well? Blessings


Well, congratulations. You must be pretty far along on your journey. There is a period on our spiritual path ~ after we have committed ourselves to our spiritual practice ~ where our soul will feel it is time to bring forth our SHADOW. Most people are completely oblivious to their shadow behaviors, because their soul has not brought the shadow forth to be healed.....the shadow is still hidden from their conscious awareness and people are literally blinded by themselves because they are unwilling to heal and change.


This time period is bizarre ~ because as we meditate and focus on the LIGHT, bringing our God Self more and more into our being, a sense of inner peace and calm begins to transforms us. We are much more balanced and loving, and the last thing we want is confrontation or negative energies....however, when we least expect it ~ our SHADOW energy appears and is reflected in every person we interact with through "their" very aggressive behaviors. The key is to accept that you too have been angry, aggressive, disrespectful and hurtful along your journey as well. Perhaps not now.....but in your past. You will need to be really honest with yourself and accept that the people externally of you are showing you energies within your very own energy field that are desiring to be released and transmuted. You must acknowledge these energies ~ shine the light of your conscious awareness on them, so they can be healed.


I went through a crazy period where a man literally climbed our backyard fence screaming at my kids because they threw a pine cone over the fence, and it almost hit his  car.....he was very aggressive and it was a very scary ordeal. He then returned the next week and egged and keyed my car. Every cashier ~ no matter where I went ~ was rude and aggressive. My daughter's friends parents were irrationally picking fights with me, parents in the school pick up line were honking their horns and throwing their fist in the air at me.....even neighbors would yell at me....one even turned the sprinkler system on at the neighborhood pool while my kids and I were at the pool on the lawn in our lawn chairs tanning and reading books. He wanted to maintenance the sprinkler system, right then and there, regardless if anyone was at the pool or not. Honestly, "everyone else's" behaviors were so crazy and unexpected....but they were all reflecting the negative hidden energies within my own being that were trying to be healed. They were not "exact" reflections, but none the less.....they were showing me aggressive energies within myself that I needed to accept as part of my being so I could "see" them and choose to transcend those behavioral patterns within myself. It really doesn't matter if "they" look at themselves, and see how inappropriate their behaviors are ~ what matters is that I was willing to look at myself and transcend the "inappropriate" behavioral patterns and energies within me. We must keep ourselves on the inner path of salvation vs. the external path of egoic recreation where we project and blame everyone ELSE for their poor behaviors while we still have poor behaviors within us that need to be addressed.


Our shadow is the gatekeeper to our higher LIGHT. We must move through the darkness of our shadow before we reach our en-lighten-ment. Because our ego's are strong, defensive and resistant the Universe lovingly provides a Universal Mirror to reflect back to us the things within our own being that are fragmented and not connected to the LIGHT of our God Self. These aspects must be brought back into wholeness and the only way to allow them to return to us is to accept them as distortions within ourselves. Once we accept them and lovingly let them return to the light of our awareness....they will be transformed into a higher vibrational energy and we will heal them and transcend the old behavioral patterns that are attached to them.


This period is also a time of total surrender to our higher self where we ALLOW our inner darkness to come forward so our soul can make new LIGHT filled choices instead of repeating the old negative egoic behavioral patterns from our past. We get to demonstrate to the Universe that we are willing to only create good in our lives for ourselves and others. This is the period where we prove we are grounding the LIGHT into our being by BEING the Love and the Light we claim ourselves to BE. If we are really peaceful and loving then no matter what happens, we remain in that state at all times and we will be given opportunity after opportunity to show that we have mastered ourselves and our energy through experiencing very difficult circumstances. We will be tested.


So the best way to determine how we are doing is to notice our energy when unpleasant circumstances arise. How does our energy feel? If we feel anger.....are we able to accept that someone has made us angry? Can we notice it, release it and move on or do we carry that anger with us all day blaming everyone else for their poor behaviors...which will only create more angry situations for us to learn from. When people make us angry, are we able to hold the space and ground our light or do we react negatively lashing out at them as well. Can we speak up for ourselves in a firm and loving way when someone is being irrational or do we run and scurry away form confrontation? Are we able to set boundaries with people or do we continue to let them treat us poorly.... repetitively? 


Eventually, the distorted energies within our energy fields begin to dissolve and we become balanced co-creators, creating a loving, peaceful, joyful, reality for ourselves. However, we must always keep in mind that our external world is a reflection of our inner workings. There will be times when we fall out of alignment ~ we are all learning and evolving into greater states of consciousness and soul expansion. It is part of our growth and it is through our experiences that we gain the most advancement. At this point on our journey, we are stepping into our mastery, which means we will ALWAYS need to accept responsibility for whatever is going on in our lives. Sometimes we may need to release something that no longer serves our highest good or we may need to accept something about ourselves that needs softening and refinement. 


Always remember that the Universe is holographic. There is always something to learn from other peoples behaviors that have been brought into our very own personal world.....it is our state of consciousness that creates our reality. We are magnetizing EVERYTHING to us as an opportunity to learn, heal, strengthen, soften and advance our soul.


Here is a chapter from my book, "Raise Your Vibration", about the Ego and Shadow Consciousness and how they work together to keep us from gaining our light. The ego and shadow are our greatest teachers and help us to evolve our soul's when we finally decide to take dominion over them:

Chapter 20 Of The Raise Your Vibration Book "Solar Plexus Chakra: The Hand of God" By Sabrina Reber


Solar Plexus Chakra: The Hand of God

Third Dimensional Chakra: (Solar Plexus)
It is associated with the color YELLOW

The Solar Plexus is located above the navel and below the chest. It is developed between the ages of 18 months to 4 years old. This chakra is where we hold our self-esteem, power and individuality. It is here where our sympathetic nervous system is vitalized and our metabolism and digestive processes occur. When our solar plexus is balanced we allow our balanced emotions (sacral) to create a positive life experience fully empowered (solar plexus) to create the life of our dreams (root). We are powerful, full of life, supportive and hold all life with a loving embrace.

When this chakra is distorted, the ego is in control. We literally Edge God Out by creating blocks within our system keeping our God self energies and highest source of wisdom and knowledge from guiding us. Our egoic, human personality takes over and thinks it’s the boss leading to all sorts of distortions greatly affecting everything in our path. Because all of our chakras work together if one is out of balance it will affect the others. If our root and sacral are out of balance then our solar plexus will also be affected creating aggressive behaviors. The need to dominate and control others (solar plexus), greed and war become the norm when we are not grounded and connected to the Earth (root) and we have denied our powerful sexual energies and emotions (sacral). Energy never dies; it is in a constant state of movement. This distorted excess energy moves through our system putting the solar plexus in overdrive. Peace becomes impossible and an insatiable desire to control others surfaces. Tremendous imbalance occurs between the aggressors and those who have depleted solar plexus energies. People become enslaved in a system dominated by masculine aggressive energies unable to tap into their own innate power creating a viscous cycle of disempowerment and control. That’s why our planet reflects chaos, turmoil, illness and separation because our lower chakras are either blocked or overactive keeping us from moving divine energy up into our heart chakra activating the truth of our being.

Balanced Solar Plexus: Divine Will Manifested in Physical Reality, Self-control, Able to Meet Challenges, Responsible, Transformative, Personal Power, Healthy Self Esteem, Warm Personality, Playful and Spontaneous, Humorous, A Leader not a Follower, Able to Speak our Truth and Set Boundaries.


Unbalanced Solar Plexus: Attention on Power and Recognition, Domineering, Angry, Arrogant, Need to be Right, Inability to Slow Down, Competitive, Attracted to Sedatives OR Attracted to Stimulants, Weak Will, Low Energy, Easily Manipulated, Passive.


Traumas to the Solar Plexus: Authoritarianism, Domineering Relationships, Excessive and Unrealistic Responsibilities, Shaming, Physical and Emotional abuse.


Bodily Symptoms Expressing Blockage: Digestive Disorders, Ulcers, Blood Sugar Problems, Chronic Fatigue, Hypertension, Liver Problems, Gall Bladder Problems
Many of us use our power incorrectly. We are either powerless and don't believe in ourselves or we use our power to dominate and control others. Oftentimes, we give our power away to families, friends, churches, governments, and doctors because we don’t want to accept responsibility for ourselves and make the changes necessary to transcend everything holding us back from reaching our highest soul’s potential. We falsely believe it is easier to allow others to figure everything out for us, telling us what to do, rather than relying on our own abilities and intuitive wisdom from our inner being. Giving our power away or desiring to control others is detrimental to our solar plexus chakra. 

Many people blocked in this chakra have bought into the belief that they are separate from God and are helpless victims of their circumstances. They block energy from flowing freely keeping them from aligning with their divine self, the true source of their power. They don’t realize they are the creators of their reality and have the power to choose at anytime to make different choices to create a better life for themselves. This creates anger and frustration blocking divine energy from moving up into the fourth chakra, the Heart Chakra.

Chapter 15 Of The Raise Your Vibration Book "Healing the Shadow" By Sabrina Reber


Our shadow is everything we think we aren’t. It is an accumulation of our stored darkness that we refuse to look at and accept. It is everything we reject and hate within our own being such as our own anger, jealousy, fear, shame, lies, ignorance, intolerance, bitterness and re-activeness. Our shadow holds everything we think is “bad” and since we only want to accept our “good” qualities….all of our deepest darkest secrets get pushed to the background (stored in our energy fields) creating our shadow. Whatever we feel is not acceptable to reveal to our family, friends, society and ourselves is hidden within our shadow. In order to be accepted and feel good about ourselves we reject those parts of our psyches that we don’t want to show the world. Unfortunately, all of these rejected aspects of ourselves still remain with us and are covered up by all of our social masks. However, these negative aspects are still a part of our being and they will continue to show themselves when we least expect it! Regardless of how much we try to suppress them, there they are seeking attention, healing and transformation. At a certain point on our journey back to wholeness, our shadow will reveal itself. What seemed like a straight path back to love, light and unification all the sudden takes an unexpected turn when the dark aspects of ourselves begin to make themselves known. At this point, we will no longer be able to hide from ourselves. As we face God, we face ourselves! All of our perceived “bad qualities” that we have not owned will rise to the surface so they too can be acknowledged and accepted and brought back into the light and truth of our being.

Facing our shadow is a difficult process because it appears suddenly, out of the blue, throwing us off track forcing us to face our fears, insecurities, past mistakes and poor decisions. Our shadow reminds us where we need to focus for a deeper level of healing. It shows us our repressed emotions, feelings, dysfunctions, history, denials, weaknesses, addictions and patterns. We do not need to fear our shadow; in fact, we need to learn how to embrace it. Our shadow will only show up when we are ready to truly move into wholeness, gain our highest soul’s potential and become the master of our lives. We must move through our darkness before we will truly be able to fully step into the light of our divinity. When we acknowledge the information our shadow provides and accept its teachings, our shadow becomes the bridge between the darkness of our fears to the light of redemption and unification. Our soul knows when it is time to clear our energy and begin to live our life in a different way. When our soul feels we are ready, our shadow will be brought forth and each of us will be called to find the inner strength to face it so we can transform it. This part of ourselves can no longer be denied, it must be acknowledged, transformed and integrated into our being before we will be able to raise our vibrations to our highest potential.

When things in our life take a turn for the worst and we can’t figure out what we are doing to create these circumstances, we can be sure that our soul has decided that it is time for us to meet our shadow. Our shadow is held in place by the unconscious parts of our mind that need healing. These unconscious parts are like sub personalities that were created from our unwillingness to fully feel our negative feelings because we perceived them to be bad. Since we have not been taught how to deal with these negative feelings, in a healthy way, we stuff them in our subconscious mind creating our shadow. This part of our self gets disconnected from our conscious self because we only want to deal with what makes us feel good. Unfortunately, the human experience does not always feel good and our uncomfortable feelings must be dealt with or we will continue to stuff things in our unconscious mind creating a darker, larger shadow moving us further and further away from the light of our God self. Denial of our negative feelings does not make them go away. In order to transform them they must be fully experienced so they can be acknowledged and healed. If we continue to avoid these unpleasant feelings they will continue to influence our behaviors and will be like little magnets that continue to attract people and situations into our life that we would rather not be involved with. When we feel like there is something outside of ourselves creating our life circumstance, and we want to blame others, we need to stop and realize that it is our shadowy sub personalities that are magnetizing these events into our lives. These parts of ourselves have been disowned and they are drawing attention to themselves so they can be welcomed back into our being and healed. This can only occur if we choose to receive the gift our shadow is trying to show us and acknowledge the emotion, feeling and behavior as part of our being. If we deny our shadow consciousness it will continue to persist. Bringing our conscious awareness to it and accepting it as part of our being shines light on it, transmuting it into love. Once all of these disowned aspects of our being are integrated, we will no longer need to draw unpleasant situations into our lives. 

The unwillingness to look at ourselves honestly and make the changes necessary to evolve our souls is the essence of hypocrisy. We must accept accountability, responsibility and ownership of our own darkness and misqualified energy. We all have a shadow and the only way to transform it is to shine light on it through our increased awareness and willingness to stop rejecting those parts of ourselves that we don’t want to own. Be aware that your shadow and negative ego support each other because they are both disowned aspects of ourselves that we have separated from the light of our God self. Healing means to make ourselves whole. By disowning and rejecting our ego and our shadow we fragment ourselves into separate beings keeping us from reaching a state of unification and wholeness. In order for us to re-member ourselves bringing us into a state of healing and wholeness we must recognize and own our shadow so we can transform our ego bringing more of our true divine essence into our being.

Both the ego and the shadow support each other because the main job of the ego is to keep us in separation, fragmented from our God self. In fact your ego will deny that your shadow is a part of your being, in any way. The ego knows if we recognize and heal our shadow, our shadow will be integrated into our God self which means the ego will be out of a job and integrated as well. In order to keep the shadow from being acknowledged, the ego will assist the shadow by helping the shadow to distance itself from its source of discomfort which creates further separation and denial within our being. For example, when we see someone misbehaving or being “bad” we pass judgment (ego) and immediately label it as “not us” (shadow). We blame (ego & shadow) and point fingers at everyone else for their inappropriate behavior projecting (ego & shadow) those parts of ourselves we have denied (ego) onto them making ourselves superior (ego) to all the other people out there (ego) who could never, never be reflections of ourselves. The ego loves to reinforce its sense of separateness by making us feel justified and self-righteous in our blaming. The egos basic premise is that of victim hood and a victim must always have someone to blame. Because our shadow avoids everything unpleasant, it will avoid taking responsibility for the co-creation of the circumstance and stuff it in the subconscious mind simply wanting it to go away leaving us alone. Unfortunately, this perpetuates and intensifies our darkness keeping our rejected parts inside the shadow and away from the light of our God self.

The shadow holds all the darkness from every traumatic event we have ever endured and not cleared from our subconscious mind. In order for us to fully step into our light, resolve our karma and raise our vibrations we must face and clear all of those things we refuse to accept about ourselves. This is why our relationships are often referred to as mirrors. Whatever we see in another person “that provokes an uncomfortable reaction” is usually a good indicator of a characteristic or sub personality within our own being that needs to be accepted and healed as well. We tend to see in other people all of the qualities that we have personally disowned. They are mirroring back to us our own shadows. Anger, hatred, jealousy and bitterness can only hurt us if it is denied. When we suppress our emotions and feelings, because we have been taught they are wrong, our shadow enlarges keeping us from accessing greater amounts of light. Once our feelings are embraced and we learn what they are trying to teach us they will no longer be stored in our shadows demagnetizing the charge they once had on us. For example, if we see someone overreacting and it doesn’t provoke a reaction, emotion or feeling within our being, then we can be sure we have owned this aspect of ourselves because it will no longer have a charge within our being. We will be able to have compassion for this person knowing that a part of their shadow has risen up to the surface to be acknowledged and healed. Neutrality, not denial, is a good sign that you are integrating those aspects of your self that use to enrage you. However, if you continue to attract repetitive situations with people who keep demonstrating a similar type of behavior, that provokes a reaction in you, then you can be sure the Universe is trying to show you a disowned aspect of yourself that needs to be owned and integrated within your being. The Universe is lovingly bringing situations to each one of us helping us to heal and step into wholeness. When we have demagnetized all of our shadow consciousness, we will no longer attract relationships to show us our hidden aspects that we have been in denial about. We will no longer need another person to mirror our shadow back to us and we will naturally move towards those relationships that reflect back our light. Before we can be healed of any condition - body, mind or soul - we must be willing to take ownership of our creations before we can truly let them go releasing them into the light of God.

Each of us are affected by our own level of shadow consciousness and ego distortions. For the most part, this is not intentional, it is usually an unconscious act of self-deception that our shadow and ego thrives on. However, raising our vibration, merging with our God self and entering the Kingdom of God requires us to bring everything we have been avoiding unconsciously into our conscious awareness so it can be transformed. Energy never dies; it must be transformed! If we do not face our shadow, feel it and clear it we will not be able to raise our vibration high enough for our God self to merge with our being. We have to transform our darkness into light and the only way to do that is to bring it into our conscious awareness and look at it with brutal self-honesty. We need to clear out our energy fields and face our lies, shame, blame and anger. We must stop denying the negativity that lives within our being and face it so we can heal ourselves and become whole and authentic. These negativities are the very things we are here on Earth to heal. We are in a constant state of being refined and our ego and shadow work will not end until we have purified ourselves enough to be completely absorbed back into the light of the Creator Of “All That Is”.


Shadow Reactions


  • Anything that feels like it isn’t you.
  • Feelings and Emotions “others” provoke in you that you just want to go away. Your shadow is all of your rejections.
  • All feelings and emotions you don’t want to own.
  • “Out of character” emotions or reactions that are showing up in your life. These are the hidden sub personalities, stored in your subconscious, that want to be healed!
  • Aspects of your self you don’t want others to see so you wear a mask.
  • Our deepest, darkest and most terrible secrets.
  • Our resistances. What we resist, persists.


Ego Reactions that Support the Shadow


  • Blames others for their current situation. Refuses to accept responsibility for their own life / circumstances / creations / behaviors. We blame someone else when they exhibit a part of our shadow that is trying to be healed.
  • Projects their disowned sub personalities onto others because they don’t want to acknowledge their hidden issues. Finger pointing! Our outer reality is a reflection of our inner reality. Whatever we see in another person, that provokes a reaction, is a reflection of something within our own being that needs to be owned.
    “ You are angry ”
    “ You are obnoxious ”
    “ You are over reactive ”
    “ You are hateful ”
    “ You are emotional ”
    “ You have a big ego ”
  • The ego creates the distance (separation) the shadow wants from its uncomfortable feelings. This creates separation / fragmentation within our being keeping us from reuniting with all of our parts, which keeps us from being whole.
  • Denial! Denies that the shadow is a part of you:
    “ I don’t have a shadow ”
     “ I don’t have negative feelings ”
     “ I don’t have any darkness”
     “ I don’t wear a mask.”
     “ I don’t have issues”
     “ I don’t need healing”


Signs that You are Integrating Your Shadow and Ego


  • You notice behaviors in others but have no need to react or respond.
  • Other people’s behaviors no longer create a feeling or an emotion in you. They do not trigger an internal alarm or create negative head chatter. You are becoming neutral.
  • You no longer blame the other person or berate yourself when a shadow aspect shows up. You acknowledge and accept the disowned parts of your being, shining the light of your consciousness on them so they can be transmuted and healed. You are pulling yourself out of blame and denial.
  • You are able to fully embrace and fully love all parts of yourself, even the parts that aren’t so great. This is self-love!!!
  • You embrace your humanity with determination and acceptance knowing that when your shadow consciousness arises this is a positive sign that shows healing is occurring in your life. You are allowing all of your disowned shadowy sub personalities to be demagnetized through your acceptance and healing of them.
  • Your life has become more peaceful and your circumstances, relationships and interactions are becoming more positive.


Questions to Ask Yourself


  • What judgments do you have about other people? These judgments show us our hidden aspects that need to be healed. Once we own them, other people’s behaviors will not bother us.
  • What scenarios in your life are repetitive? Do you keep attracting the same kind of negative people in your life? What are they trying to show you?
  • Be really honest with yourself and make a list of all the things about yourself you try to hide from others. Recognize that it takes twice as much energy to hide these aspects from yourself and others than it does to own them.
  • Where are you being inauthentic in your interactions? In what situations do you put on a “mask”? What are you hiding?

Chapter 14 Of The Raise Your Vibration Book "Integrating the Negative Ego" By Sabrina Reber




Overcoming and integrating the negative ego is a central aspect on the spiritual path. As we just learned, it is our ego that creates fear. The ego creates a filter that distorts the way our mind perceives everything. It literally creates spiritual blindness and keeps us stuck in limited thinking. The ego places a veil of illusion or a veil of amnesia over our eyes keeping us from accessing our higher wisdom and truth. Evil is the “veil” that blocks us from maintaining a strong connection with our God self. This veil creates the illusion that God is outside of ourselves. All external pathways that rely on a savoir or something outside of our selves to reach God is an illusion which has been created by the human ego. The only path that leads to salvation is the inner path. Divine illumination is given to those, who choose for themselves, to shed the illusions of the ego and reach for a direct relationship with their God self. Jesus clearly states, “The Kingdom of God is Within” and any teaching that teaches God is outside of ourselves is an anti Christ teaching. In order to enter the kingdom, which is the expansion of God consciousness within our own being, each of us must heal our shadow consciousness and transcend the human ego, which will lift the veil of amnesia from our minds. When the veil is lifted we are removed from the darkness and confines of ego separation, denial and fear. We begin to see the light of truth transforming our denseness and darkness (coal) into vibrant divine energy (gold) leading us into God realization. Cleaning up our soul is an alchemical process and it is the very reason we incarnated in the first place.

Transcending the negative ego, raising our vibration and striving to expand our being into greater awareness is a life long journey. The ego will try to deceive us every step of the way because it does not want us to recognize who we truly are and step fully into our divine power. The ego will trick us into believing we have arrived spiritually. It will tell us we have learned all we need to learn and no longer have to work on ourselves. Spiritual complacency and the trick of the ego is very common in the Christian religion. We bought into the belief that once we are baptized, acknowledge that Jesus died on the cross for our sins and accept Christ into our hearts we are guaranteed salvation. Unfortunately, this has halted many of us from moving forward with our spiritual growth because we now believe Jesus has taken on the responsibility of our sins and misqualified energy. Our negative emotions, ego and shadowy psychological patterns get suppressed, denied and ignored because we believe Jesus is responsible for our salvation and we stop doing the inner work necessary to redeem ourselves. Believing in a savior outside of ourselves keeps us repeating the same karmic patterns over and over again keeping us in the pattern of death and rebirth in order to balance our energy. We have given our power away to something outside of ourselves to save us, accepting the illusions of the ego, which is a false path that will only bring continued suffering, chaos and drama! The only way to reach salvation and redeem ourselves is to go within our inner being accepting responsibility for our misqualified energy, soul wounds and repetitive patterns that keep us stuck in duality and separation.

Never underestimate the ego’s power to keep humanity in avoidance and denial. The ego promotes psychological laziness keeping us stuck in dramas and difficult lessons so it can feed off of our energy. The only way to free ourselves from the trappings of our ego is to become conscious of it and do the inner work necessary so we can ascend our human consciousness up to our Spirit literally pulling our God self down into our energetic and physical vehicles. This will not occur until we become proactive in transcending our  psychological wounds, repetitive behavioral patterns and are willing to balance our karma. An expansion of consciousness requires the willingness to self transcend. Self-growth and continued expansion never stops and is the very essence of creation. The Universe is always in a constant flow of transition, transformation, change and expansion. The Creator is always transcending itself into something bigger and better and our soul is expected to do the same. However, the ego and many religious groups, promote psychological laziness and comfortability so they can control us and keep us disempowered. If we connect with our God self, igniting the kingdom of God from within, we will no longer be stuck and disempowered. We will discover the truth of our being setting ourselves free from the control of anything outside of ourselves to be our source of wisdom, guidance truth and God connection.

When we choose to step into our power releasing the control and fear produced by the ego and fear filled organizations we will open our “spiritual eyes” and intuitive faculties keeping us from being blinded by the human ego. When our spiritual eye is not open, we are in the dark and literally cannot “see” the patterns and subconscious programs that continue to wreak havoc in our lives. When we are no longer blinded and we choose to open our eyes to “see” ourselves we will transcend our current level of consciousness and experience oneness with God and all beings returning to the ultimate truth, that God is love. In order to know God’s truth we will need to experience it directly in order to release the confinements of our ego. We will not understand truth until it is experienced in that blissful state of oneness that occurs when our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual bodies have been cleared, integrated and balanced. When this occurs, our chakras will be activated and our energy fields will be harmonized and aligned in order for our God self to descend into our physical body. This is truly a remarkable experience, a mystical union that is available to all who are willing to “Know Thyself” and purify the misqualified energies in their physical, emotional and mental bodies. The spiritual body will begin to take dominion over our physical being and our God self will now be able to work through our lower being helping us to become the God empowered beings we truly are.

As we face God, we face ourselves. If we choose to serve our ego refusing to look at ourselves and our negative subconscious programs we will not be able to access a strong flow of spiritual energy from our God self. The only way to take dominion over the ego, gain health, vitality, right understanding and harmony is to build a strong foundation of God energy or spiritual energy running through our systems. This will amplify our energy fields and fill every cell of our body, mind and soul with the divine healing essence of God. This is an alchemical process where we turn our darkness into light. When we serve our ego, we look away from God denying our darkness, which creates additional blocks and barriers within our energy field. This keeps our vibration low and diminishes the amount of divine energy our bodies are able to pull through. A lack of spiritual energy is what creates all illness, disease, ignorance, bitterness and self-destruction on our planet. The human ego cannot be completely transformed until our God self has merged with our physical being filling it with its divine essence of light. We are multidimensional beings with our God self living in our higher vibrating dimensions (several feet above our head). We must actively pursue connection to this higher part of ourselves, through meditation, in order to activate our God consciousness revealing the truth of our being. Once our God self merges with our physical self, the real journey begins and our newly activated Christ / Buddha / Cosmic consciousness will empower us to see clearly through the illusions created by our ego. When we are willing to shed our pride and compensate for our past unconscious actions, face God and make things right, that’s when we will take up our cross of karma and move forward into the magnificence of our being.

Raising our vibration, overcoming our ego’s and striving to attain divine union with our God self is a lifestyle and a journey that will require self-love, patience and perseverance. Our ego is part of the human condition and it must be dealt with, acknowledged, balanced and integrated. The ego is very much like a rebellious child that is full of fear. The ego was created out of the soul’s fear of perceived separation and the ego is terrified of giving up its control and surrendering to the love of the God self. Every time we make a decision from our God self we experience love, joy, passion for life, clarity, peace, fascination and fun. Whenever we make a negative decision from the ego we experience fear, doubt, control, unworthiness, powerlessness, confusion, denial and pain. The ego will tell the world how grand it is and what accomplishments it has achieved but deep inside the ego feels inadequate because it knows it was created out of illusion and not from the truth of our being. Any negative reaction, judgment or feeling we experience is always from the lower self or ego. Whenever our ego surfaces all we need to do is pay attention, become aware of it and observe it so we can transform it. We can take this opportunity to take dominion over our lower self and choose to respond from a place of love instead of fear.

Dedication to inner work and our spiritual growth is imperative for us to continually become more and more embodied by our God self. Refining and dissolving our lower being into a greater expression of who we truly are is a continuous process. The ego does not completely dissolve when our God self merges with our physical being. However, our God self will now have dominion over the ego or lower self and will lovingly and patiently guide our soul to release everything that no longer serves its highest good. As we raise our vibration, it is important for us to discern when we are working from our spiritual self and when we are working from our negative ego. The lower self / personality self is in duality and separation identifying itself as a physical body that is separate from everyone and everything else. It is based on fear and keeps us in a state of judgment, condemnation, separation and unforgiveness. Many people spend lifetimes struggling with their lower self never allowing their spiritual self to shine through so their lower self can be transformed. Our spiritual self is our truth; it is our divine self or divine spark that lives in each of us. It is this part of ourselves that urges us to see beyond our limited sense of identity. Our divine self knows we are more than our physical body and third dimensional titles we have put upon ourselves. Our spiritual self knows we are NEVER disconnected from God or anyone else.

Raising our vibration requires us to embody as many aspects of our spiritual self as possible. You will notice you have aspects of both the negative ego and the spiritual self. Humans are not perfect! Every human has a negative ego. We are here to learn lessons and grow from our current level of consciousness into a more expanded one. Oftentimes, we will make great progress and develop a very strong spiritual self. However, the lower self is still a part of our being and it will reveal itself in very subtle ways. It is our responsibility to stop denying this part of our being and recognize when it overshadows our spiritual self. Self-awareness, self-honesty and the willingness to self transcend is all that’s required to make progress. Our consciousness cannot be expanded if we choose not to look at our lower self ego and learn the lessons it is trying to teach us. There is always a lesson in every interaction! Self love and compassion for yourself, as well as, others is absolutely necessary while we all undergo the transformation of the lower self.

Keeping our hearts open during this transformational process can be a challenge. For many of us, the only way for our negative ego to be healed is for it to rise to the surface through a negative interaction so we can “SEE” the pain and trauma we create from our negative emotions, reactive behaviors and fears. Many of us have denied and stuffed so much negativity in our energy fields we aren’t even consciously aware of what needs to be transformed within our own being. In order for us to heal our negativity we need to bring it out into conscious awareness, for all to see, so we can shed light on it and choose differently next time around. During this great transformation it will be important for each of us to surround ourselves around people who are actively working on themselves and transcending their lower self. If you look around the planet you will see a split between those choosing the light of knowledge and those choosing the darkness of denial. What we resist persist, so those souls who continue to stay in denial about their negative ego will continue to recreate the same toxic situations over and over again until they learn their lessons transforming their current level of consciousness into a more enlightened one. Everyone needs to obtain a heightened level of compassion for everyone during this process. However, that does not mean we need to continue to allow ourselves to become engulfed with repetitive negative interactions with others who continue to repeat the same lessons over and over again. Our soul mates may require traumatic events to trigger them into an awareness of the dead end directions of their old choices. Unfortunately, pain can be a catalyst for transformation.

Our heart is the entryway to the soul and our Holy Spirit. Because of this, continued traumatic events with those choosing to stay in denial could be counterproductive to our own soul’s evolution. Have enough love for yourself and others to release all  co-dependant relationships that are no longer a vibrational match. Many will choose to experience the duality and separation of the ego for an extended period of time. We must respect their free will choice even if we know it will lead them on a path of continued suffering and pain. For some, it may take many more lifetimes before they choose to raise their vibration high enough activating the Kingdom of God within themselves. Everyone has the same potential to connect to their heart space, the seat of their soul, their own personal Holy Spirit and reach up to their God self to incorporate more of its divine energy within their being. The ego does not want us to remember this and it will create a tremendous amount of resistance in our lives. In addition, the systems in our world are set up to promote the ego and do not acknowledge our true power. 


Overcoming our egos and the limiting programs we have created in our subconscious requires patience, desire, dedication and persistence. The egos greatest weapon is fear and denial. The Bible speaks of a deceiver that will trick many into following a false God. Unfortunately, many people have not realized that it is their own ego that deceives them into opting for the easy way out keeping them from doing the inner work necessary to further their soul’s growth. 
The majority of humanity has been in the grips of the negative ego / fear based / separative mind for the past 26,000 years. Our choices have created disharmony and unbalance on our planet, however, we are currently moving into the higher vibrations of soul consciousness, unity, unconditional love and peace.  The Earth is ascending and we too have the opportunity to join her. It is a personal choice and we each have free will. We can choose to stay in our egoic limitations of duality and separation or we can choose to face ourselves and transcend our negativity by stepping into the love of our God self. We have a choice as to which part of our being we want to be predominant, the ego or the soul. We have to decide which part of our self is sacred and only allow it to be our source of authority. If we want to work from our divine essence we need to set our intention to reconnect with our God self. Our divine self has always been with us simply waiting for us to give up ego control and ask for its assistance. Everyday state:

“ I surrender and release ego control and ask for my God self to
merge with me and assist me with my highest good.” 

If you were still blinded by your ego you would have tossed this book away along time ago because your ego would have created a tremendous amount of resistance and discomfort fooling you into believing that this book has no merit. The majority of humanity is not even aware that they have given their power over to an imposter! The ego thrives on denial because it knows we cannot reclaim our power and heal ourselves if we are not aware of it in the first place. Many people’s egos have such a tight grip on their being they are literally blinded from the truth of reality. Because of the powerful energies of the photon belt, many are just beginning to awaken and realize that there is much more to reality than what we had previously bought into. We have been like an ostrich with our heads in the sand. Those who have been so absolute and sure of things are beginning to rethink their old choices and are beginning to move into integrity accessing more of their authentic self by tapping into their soul and God self.

Integrating and overcoming the negative ego is a very intense process. Each of us will need to be very kind to ourselves as we dig deeper into our being allowing our hidden patterns and distortions to rise to the surface to be acknowledged and healed. We cannot heal something we are not aware of, so everything needing to be healed must rise to the surface! We must step out of resistance and into allowance. Because our egos have been in control for such a long period of time, it will take time to fully dissolve them into the light of God. Don’t let your ego belittle you when you fall out of alignment! The ego will build you up making you think you are superior and then diminish you when you make a mistake making you believe you are worthless. Dissolving the power of the ego is a lifestyle! We all hold a tremendous amount of power within our being and because the ego is not based in truth, it can only maintain the power that we give to it. We are each powerful Creators of our lives! Who else could possibly be creating your world for you? We each have the choice and the power to dissolve our ego and change our personal world whenever we want to. When each of us accepts responsibility for the healing of our being, we contribute to the healing of the entire planet. 
  • When you notice your Ego has surfaced, ask yourself :
         What am I needing and why am I responding this way?
  • Which part of your being is running your life? The Ego or the Soul?
  • What parts of yourself are you willing to transcend?

God = Man – Ego 
Sai Baba 

Seek and ye shall find. 
Matthew 7:7

I (the ego) die daily.    
St. Paul 1 Cor. 15: 31

A Native American Elder once described his own inner struggles in this manner: Inside of me there are two dogs. One of the dogs is mean and evil. The other dog is good. The mean dog fights the good dog all the time. When asked which dog wins, he reflects for a moment and replied, “the one I feed the most”.
George Bernard Shaw

3rd Chapter From The "Raise Your Vibration" Book "Accepting Yourself" By: Sabrina Reber


Accepting Yourself

3rd Capter Of The "Raise Your Vibration" Book 
By: Sabrina Reber

In order to begin the process of raising your vibration it is necessary for you to accept yourself right here, right now, just as you are. Everyone on the planet is coming out of the dark ages and has the opportunity to change their previous way of living and thinking into a more enlightened, compassionate way of being. All of us have done things in the past we regret doing. It is karmic law when a person chooses to acknowledge their misqualified energy and has chosen to transcend the potential of repeating a negative karmic behavior the energetic imprint of that behavior is released and all is forgiven. Regardless of what has occurred in the past or what is occurring in the present moment, if you don’t accept yourself and love yourself right now you will not be able to shift your current state of vibration into a higher one, so you can manifest a higher vibrational you in the future.

Our Creator DOES NOT judge us for our actions or our choices! We are loved unconditionally! Unconditional love is an unlimited way of being! Our Creator loves us so much he gave us free will, with no limitations, to choose how we want to create with his energy. However, all of our choices and actions reflect the level of our vibration and state of consciousness. Since you are reading this book, clearly you desire to change your current state of consciousness into a higher state of consciousness where you can create a more harmonious life for yourself and everyone you come in contact with. This can only occur through a gradual process of integrating your Spiritual self or God self with your physical body. A relationship with your God self will assist your soul in gaining right understanding helping you to avoid making self destructive or limiting choices in the future.

Your Spiritual self or God self is the core of your being and is completely pure and unaffected by any of the energies in the physical dimension. Nothing you have ever done has corrupted or changed the core essence of your being. Your God self, a direct extension of the Creator, lives in a higher octave and is completely whole and never separated from you or the Creator of All That Is. The Creator took of his light and created your God Self and your God Self took a part of its consciousness creating the soul where it extended itself into the earth plane taking on a physical body. As a newborn child, the soul enters the body and a veil of amnesia or forgetfulness is placed over the soul’s mind and the soul forgets that it is an extension of the Creator. Because the soul believes it is separated and powerless, it becomes fearful and creates an alter identity called the Ego or the lower self. The Ego is a fear filled extension of the soul and is not connected to the loving guidance of the God self. Out of desperation and confusion the soul allows the Ego to become the dominating source of guidance which creates blocks and barriers between the soul and its true source of wisdom and guidance, the God self. The Ego is an acronym for Edging God Out and once it is in control of the soul, it will do everything to keep the soul from remembering its true nature. Because the soul has free will, the God Self will allow the soul and its self-created alter identity the ego, to experience its free will to the fullest. The God self is a source of wisdom and guidance but it does not intervene in the soul’s free will if the soul chooses to follow the guidance of the Ego. 

Humanity has been in a dualistic battle with its ego for the past 11,000 years. Since we are moving into the photon belt of Christed energies and out of the 11,000 years of darkness it is time for each of us to remember who we truly are releasing the control, lies and fears of our Ego or lower self. It is time for our soul to step back into alignment so we can be spiritually fed and guided by the love of our God self. In order for the soul to access divine guidance it must, choose for itself, to take dominion over its ego. The soul needs to release the control of ego separation reclaiming its soul presence and divine birthright to fully merge into sacred union with its God self. This can only occur if the soul chooses to release the belief that it is separated from its Creator and actively pursues divine union with its God self through the process of raising its vibration, expanding its consciousness and seeking the kingdom within.

Your soul has free will and may have made poor choices in the past based on fear, however, deep inside of you there is a place of perfection and divine wisdom. The purpose of this book and all spiritual work is to get you to strengthen that connection with your God self so you can receive an unlimited amount of divine energy leading you into self empowerment and your highest soul’s potential. Everything in your life revolves around the free will choices of your soul. Your God self will not make choices for your soul but it is always available if your soul chooses to be guided by its divine wisdom and higher intelligence. However, it is the soul who has chosen to incarnate into a physical body and has the free will to choose whether it wants to make choices from the ego or the God self.

The shifting of your vibration begins when you accept responsibility for all of your perceived faults, mistakes, regrets, difficulties and challenges. You cannot deny the choices your soul has made in the past but you can change the present moment and your future by reviewing your past actions, unconscious choices and egoic beliefs. Self-analysis and observation is the only way you can create change in your life. Forgive yourself and know that all of your previous actions were created from your level of consciousness at that time in your life. However, it is imperative that you understand that your current problems cannot be solved with the same state of consciousness that created them. Be honest with yourself, love yourself, open yourself up to a higher perspective and allow a shift in consciousness to occur. You are not your mistakes! You are a powerful being fully capable of creating the life you have always wanted.

You are created in the image and likeness of God. You are created from source energy and have the same energy within you that is also within the Creator. Underneath all of the pain, sadness, masks, shields of protection, denials, distorted beliefs and limitations is a perfect eternal divine spark that can never be extinguished. This is your God spark, your perfection, the part of you that is a divine extension of God. You have within you God power that can heal and create the change you desire to see in your life. Jesus says, “The power that is within you is greater than the power that is in this world.” You are a co-creator with God! You have God essence, God power within your being. Many of us have become so consumed with our physicality and ego, we forgot about our true identity as a spiritual being and stopped using our creative powers consciously. This has caused us to make unconscious choices creating suffering for humanity, the planet and ourselves. God does not create suffering; humans create suffering! We are spiritual beings having a human experience and we have forgotten how powerful we are. We are so powerful, that we have the free will potential to use our creative faculties in a way that goes against God’s laws creating great disharmony on our planet.

There is not a person here on Earth who has not made mistakes in the past. Mistakes are misqualified energy and are opportunities for growth. Through the pain and suffering of human mistakes our greatest lessons and soul growth can be attained. However, we must become conscious of our mistakes and gain the golden nuggets of wisdom they are trying to teach us. Being observant of ourselves shifts our consciousness into a higher state so we can rise above our past choices and repetitive patterns that continue to lead us into suffering, lower vibrations and ultimately a very thick veil of illusion, created by our ego, making it appear that we are separated from God and each other. The good news is we can choose to reverse our downward spiral right here, right now that moves our soul further and further away from our God selves into an upward spiral bringing us closer to our divine essence. We need to step out of denial and acknowledge our errors. Victim consciousness and denial of our unconscious choices will get us nowhere. We can’t change anything if we don’t first acknowledge it! Accept where you are right here, right now and know you have the power within you to make new choices that will expand your consciousness moving you into an upward spiral where you have the potential to raise your vibration high enough so you can attain divine union with your God self. 

The human you is imperfect but the true you, the eternal you, your spiritual self, is whole and perfect. It is your soul, your consciousness, that desires healing and a stronger connection to your Spiritual or God self. Many of us have allowed our egos or lower selves to take over pushing our souls, that part of ourselves that is always connected to the God self, out of the way. Although we have never been separated from our God self, many of us have chosen to believe in the concept of God being outside of ourselves. This is an egoic belief! Unfortunately, this belief creates energetic blocks and barriers between our physical and spiritual selves creating the illusion that we are separated from God and each other. When we believe we are separate from God, the flow of spiritual energy and wisdom from our God selves diminishes to a small trickle barely keeping us alive. A limited flow of spiritual energy depletes the soul leading to poor health, distorted beliefs, confusion, depression, powerlessness, shame, anger and negative choices that are out of alignment with our higher wisdom. The soul is always trying to get our attention by communicating to us through feelings and oftentimes through pain in the physical body. The chaos on our planet is the effect of the mass consciousness choosing to unplug themselves from the higher wisdom of their God selves. We have allowed our egos and lower selves to make decisions for us leading all of us into a downward spiral of self-destruction.

When Jesus says, “ I am the way and the only way to my Father” he is acknowledging that only through HIMSELF can he choose to reach his Father or God. Jesus came here to empower us and teach us how to save ourselves through right thinking. He came here to assist souls; he did not come here to save Spirits, for our Spirits are perfect and eternal. Jesus came here to be an example and to show us how we can save ourselves. Each of us are responsible for our own salvation! Jesus did not come here to teach a religion or to take responsibility for all of humanity’s sins. The highest way we can honor the life of Jesus is for us to live by his example. We need to activate our own Christ Consciousness and this can only occur when we choose to recognize the power within us and stop expecting someone outside of ourselves to create the changes we desire to see. Jesus incarnated into a physical body to show us the way and to help us remember, “Ye are Gods”. Each of us are extensions of God essence (we are one with God and each other) and it is only through ourselves that we can reach God. Jesus says, “The Father and I are One”. All outer teachings such as this book, churches, teachers and organizations have the potential to lead you in the right direction and can be of great service and assistance. However, ultimately, it is only through remembering who you are, doing the inner work and choosing to reunite with your God self that will lead you to a true state of happiness bringing your own Heaven here down on Earth. Jesus clearly states, “The Kingdom of God is within you!” Outer teachings are important but it is the inner work and the integration of these outer teachings that will help you remember your perfection. See yourself and everyone else in their highest light, love yourself for all that you have ever been and most importantly: Remember who you are!
  • Examine your life. What qualities and repetitive behaviors would you like to change?
  • Make a list of everyone you have ever hurt. Talk to their Spirit, from the depths of your heart and apologize for any misqualified energy. Ask their Spirit to release you from any energetic entanglement that may have occurred. Ask your God self what lessons need to be learned so you won’t repeat the pattern again.
  • Make a list of anyone who has ever harmed you. Talk to their Spirit, from your heart, telling them exactly how you feel. Ask your God self what lessons need to be learned so you can move forward with true forgiveness.
  • God experiences through us. Everything we choose to create is made with God’s energy. Are your creations what you want God to be creating? Are your choices what you want God to be doing?


Insanity is when you keep doing the same thing and expect a different result. 
Albert Einstein    

My people are dying from lack of knowledge  
Hosea 4:6

You cannot intellectualize your way to heaven. You can enter heaven only by absorbing my body and my blood, my living word and raising it to the whole loaf of your consciousness.
