The authentic soul (person) challenges you to be true to yourself and authentic also. Some of us will see this and be inspired to heal and shed the layers of issues on their soul to become authentic and true to themselves as well and this is awesome! But to the unhealed soul not ready to get real … brace yourself.  

Your authenticity will intimidate the wearer of the mask inciting anger, irritation, hostility, passive aggressive behaviour and often rejection. They don’t want to take off their mask and reveal what it is they are hiding and ultimately that is exactly what a mask does, it hides who you really are. It is a facade, an illusion put on to deceive you into believing someone is something they are not. I find it of no concern who they are pretending to be; the real issue is what they are hiding. 

It has been my experience that the unhealed soul will be intimidated by your authenticity because you have nothing to hide. You are real, you are who you are and you make no apologies for it and nor should you, you are in your power and for some that is confronting. Putting on a front or a mask each day is hard work, it must take up nearly all of their energy to be someone they are not and be warned it is very messy if the mask slips, if the energy drops or if dare I say it someone rips it off.  Reveal their truth and you could be waking a sleeping monster so be ready for that one.

The triggered soul wearing a mask feels violated because they are trying to avoid that which you’ve brought to the surface, they are not ready to deal with their shit and are happy to hide, happy to fool you because the mask doesn’t just hide their true self from you it hides them from themselves. This is where we look a little deeper, you see what other people do is rarely about us but very often it is about them. It is their issues they can’t face, yes they are deceiving everyone around them by wearing a mask but the saddest part of all is that they are hiding from themselves.

We all have chapters in our story we’d rather avoid or deny, they are hard to look at and flip through, it’s painful. But you can’t wear a mask forever, it will eventually wear out and come apart, your true essence will come through and it’s up to you the energy that essence emits. The unhealed soul is often angry, sad, depressed, anxious, easily irritated can be passive aggressive if not aggressive and only you can do the work to heal it. The unhealed soul is easily triggered and the mask won’t cover all these triggers, you will react, you will overreact and you will have to deal with whatever nerve has been hit because you can’t put the genie back in the bottle, it just doesn’t work that way. Once an issue has been triggered it will nag at you, it will annoy the crap out of you until you’ve faced it head on and in my opinion until you’ve cleared all energetic connections it will cause pain and anguish.

I speak from experience. I am living an authentic life as my authentic self but in my past I’ve worn many masks in my journey to find my truth and to have a mask removed before you are ready is violating. It’s like you are suddenly naked and raw and you have nowhere to hide and you have to feel, you have to feel what hurts, somehow the mask won’t go back on right, it doesn’t fit properly anymore and you have to see what’s been buried and hidden and you have to look within. You can’t blame your crap on everyone else anymore and it’s time to call bullshit on yourself and to be honest have some compassion for yourself and heal what is there.

An unhealed soul isn’t a bad soul, it isn’t a toxic soul it is simply an unhealed soul that needs to heal and healing takes time, it takes work and it takes energy so allow yourself the time you need to do the work. Authenticity is pure freedom, it’s knowing who you are and knowing your worth, it’s not giving a shit what other people think of you, it’s being true to your core and listening to your own intuition and trusting it. It’s allowing yourself to be who you are and making no apologies for it.

It’s being 100% real with yourself and others. It’s taking off the masks.
