FAQ: Should I be using my spiritual gifts as a way to support my existence?
Do you notice what wording i chose for the headline? Now, wouldn’t you think that I should be instead rephrasing it into “as a way to earn my income” or “am I allowed to receive money for using my spiritual gifts”?
Well, there’s a far greater purpose to this.
This debate has been going on for quite some time, and now that we are in the middle of mass awakening, even more so. It refers to so many layers of issues, many of which I’ve come across and I believe the time has come to clarify a few, because this confusion is not really serving any of us. The danger of the situation refers to the fact that the number of people tuning into their Higher Selves is increasing (and this means a lot of psychic abilities being unlocked in the process), and being in the middle of the process can be quite disorienting, since they are far away from their starting point, but haven’t yet reached their optimized state.
So depending on your circles, and you can witness a lot regardless, you will also come across “blind leading the blind” type of situations. And take no offense, we all started somewhere. However, being surrounded by people who are still not done shedding these outdated energies, can make the process more difficult and longer for the individual than it really has to be. Let’s say that bathing in dirty water doesn’t help with getting yourself clean.
And before we get down to the subject, I'd like to clarify my reference in the headline. It should be painfully obvious by now, that people don’t need money for sake of money itself. So when we speak in such a way, we are easily being mislead by the context we put our reference in, simply because our focus is shifted in the wrong direction. Scarce mentality is also not about money, and neither is materialism. It’s about in-built survival instincts, trauma, energetic blockages and so on. And when taken onto the highest level, in which there is a healthy relationship with matter, I come to remind you that we must honor and nourish our physical vessels, as everything else in materialized form, such as our beloved environment Mother Gaia, for instance — and we must apply active care to all forms of matter, should we intend to continue with our incarnations.
Therefore I also must remind you, about the impact of your nutrition, which directly affects your health, and indirectly everything else. What you consume regulates your energy levels throughout the day, and your vitality in the long term. Another perfect example of how matter converts into energy. And this also refers to other people, who must, whether they like it or not — satisfy those immediate existential needs, and some with an extended reach to their families as well — in order to enjoy this human experience. Whatever we exchange with one another, in whichever form — is a way for us all to have all of our needs met. Keeping this in mind, will allow you to be in a more compassionate state of perception, even when you feel like you’re being manipulated into a decision of making an exchange. Desire for survival is something we all have in common, and it’s not something we should be shamed or blamed for.
So let’s have a closer look at some of these misconceptions:
- “I shouldn’t be using God given Gifts in exchange for money”
For people who haven’t healed their self worth and wound of inadequacy:
There’s not a single person who is without gifts. The beginning of this misconception is when we imply that only certain gifts are God given — even when the gifts are different in nature. Here people tend to refer to psychic abilities. However, when we take a closer look at writing or painting we begin to understand that they are also a form of mediumship. And yet we pay for books, and we pay for visual arts. Why?
I have to remind you that you are both Spiritual essence and a Physical conduit. Your ability to use your body or intellect is ALL God given. Soul is about wholeness, while Ego is always about “either — or”.
We are here to have a Full life, and to count ALL of our blessings.
Benefits:
Exchange of power is never dis-empowering.
By making an exchange we directly support others in continuity of their incarnation.
We exchange gifts and everyone get’s exactly what they need for a joyous and abundant existence.
We treat each other as equally capable Creators/Givers and Worthy/Receivers.
We treat Spirit and Matter with the equal amount of respect.
You learn conversion.
2. Money is evil.
For those who haven’t healed their sacral and solar center:
Receiving a lot of money doesn’t necessarily imply greed. The real issue arises when the energy stops circulating. We’ve create a huge energetic imbalance by preventing the flow, whatever form of energy might be in question.
Receive in Gratitude, Let go reassured that you’ll always have enough.
Imagine if you’d hold poop in, out of fear that you won’t ever eat again?
Smth.
Benefits:
The more resources you have the more you are able to do for others as well.
You get to designate a purpose for your resources to make sure they are invested positively.

3. There are people who claim to have abilities but I think it’s all about money.
For people who haven’t healed their trust issues:
Use your intuition BEFORE you hire someone, instead of pointing the finger after not getting what you want. You have free will, choice and intuition available to you at all times.
Make sure you go to your chosen guide for the right reasons. Understand how psychic abilities actually work. Understand that external reality will often mirror your inner being, even more so when it comes to extra sensitive people. Understand that what you expect to hear is not always what you need to hear at the time and that not everything will make immediate sense. Develop your own ability.
Benefits:
You become more self reliant.
You develop your discernment, intuition and perception.
You are held accountable for your conscious and unconscious energy body…and your choices.
You’re held accountable for your intentions.
You trust yourself enough to filter information instead of externalizing authority (or a threat) and giving your power away .
You become truer to yourself.
You allow yourself to be taken care of.
4. What does it mean to serve the Self?
I think first should come a definition of the Self. The Self has so many layers but let’s stick to the main two we understand best — the Little Self and the Higher Self. And the Little Self can also appear in a polarized way, where for some the manifestation of the Little Self would be Self-Deprivation, for others will be Avarice. When we refer to someone as being Self- Serving what do we really have in mind? It’s called for mindfulness about maintaining an internal balance, and that balance will vary from one individual to another.
The Higher Self is always about Self-Love, because we are unable to Love others unless we are able to love ourselves first. How is Self-Love then in alignment with Self-Destruction that comes as a consequence of neglecting your needs?
The Higher-Self is also not about You vs. Others — it’s about equality and sufficiency. The Highest Good of All is easily maintained when we understand that we don’t have to compete with other people or deprive them of anything in order to secure our own existence. There’s enough for both. This also means that you don’t have to give up on your share for others to have exactly what they need.
At this time of Ascension energy workers are very much needed to assist Humanity as a Whole. They are like midwives for New Earth giving birth to itself. The more we invest into them, the more they are able to invest of themselves into the Highest Good of all. The time an individual (equipped to do energy healing work), is able to invest into doing just that, is significantly reduced by having to find other ways of supporting their physical existence. Every time an individual in this niche gets paid, the Highest Good of all supported as well. Imagine if you only refused to pay your surgeons, what would happen?
As for those who have been chosen to walk this path:
Are you using your gifts for the Highest Good of all? (…then it’s vital for you to take care of yourself!)
Are you clear about your intentions and remain in your integrity? (…then why do you care about what others might think of you?)
Are you trusting that you are providing a quality service (…then why isn’t your conscience at ease?)
Are you seeing others as your equals? (…then why do you leave them in energetic debt?)
…and if you thought pouring from an empty cup was hard, try poring from a broken one.
(You can also reach out in comments or by email, or via any of my social media accounts inbox, if you have any questions I haven’t mentioned in this article. Same goes for individuals who are struggling with their ascension process, I do provide several services designated specifically for this purpose.)
