Pursuing Your Passion and Purpose and Turning Your Spirituality Into Your Career

If you aspire to have a spiritually-based career or begin a heart-based service whereby you are helping others and bringing enlightenment, healing and love to the world, be encouraged to follow your passion. It is a sign of your destiny and soul path – and it is time to begin!

Each person has a personal soul mission or life purpose. This mission is something you agreed to undertake and learn during this lifetime prior to incarnating. Lessons may include such themes as learning to be compassionate, self-reliant, a leader, or about forgiveness, patience or sharing with others. There is any number of these soul growth lessons for us to learn and each of us has our own set of life themes and lessons.

In addition to their own personal soul missions, some people agreed to take on a ‘global’ or ‘Universal’ mission which may involve helping other people, the environment, campaigning passionately about a cause or two (or more), helping and caring for animals and/or working for humanity’s benefit in general. These souls/people are known by a variety of names such as Lightworkers, Star Seeds, Earth Angels, Indigos and Crystals amongst others. They come in the form of healers, teachers, authors and speakers, whose primary goal is to enlighten and assist others

When you are a lightworker your higher-self and soul KNOW you are, whether your conscious mind realizes it (yet) or not. Lightworkers, Star Seeds, Earth Angels etc feel a sense of purpose, a compulsion to help others and have a genuine love of the world and all it encompasses. They naturally attract people in need of help and are innately sensitive to the needs of others. At times they may feel overwhelmed by others’ energies as they are so sensitive and/or empathic.

Lightworkers are aware that there is something important that they are destined to do during their lifetime. Although they may not be sure of what they may entail exactly, they know within that they will be shown and guided in Divine right time. For some there may be a sense of urgency, as though there is so much to do but not enough time to do it all. Follow this urge and get on with ii.

The main soul or life purpose of lightworkers is to extend and send out Divine love and healing. Radiating this healing light and energy naturally brings peace and love wherever they go. All that a lightworker does is done with Divine unconditional love.

Whether you are a spiritual teacher, life coach, author, speaker, healer or any other spiritual facilitator, the most necessary ingredient is that Divine spark of love infused with and into your work.

When considering your spiritually-based profession or career take a look at your true passions. You may need to define your particular niche so have a look at your hobbies, your beliefs and values and WHO you really are.

What topics truly excite and motivate you? What are you naturally/Divinely good at? Are you a talented writer, a brilliant public speaker or are you naturally drawn towards the healing arts? Maybe you are a dab-hand at all of them. What is your topic or focus? What will you teach, write or speak about?

Listen to your intuition, inner-voice and your heart. Listen to your Higher-Self as it already knows. Your feelings, when beginning or pursuing a career within the spiritual professions, is your best guide.

Make sure you put your heart and soul into your work. Being genuinely passionate about what you do keeps the momentum and enthusiasm flowing.

SELF CONFIDENCE, FAITH AND TRUST
That compulsive urge and/or dream of becoming a spiritual facilitator is much more than just an idea - it is a sign.

Often what holds many back from pursuing a spiritually-based career is a ‘fear’ of lack. The questions raised may be along the lines of "how will I be able to support myself and my family financially?" "If I quit my day job will I be able to survive financially?" "What would people think and say?"

Many people hesitate becoming public speakers, healers and teachers due to fear of ridicule, rejection and/or ostracism. Yes, there will be those who will criticize and judge you - but that happens regardless of whatever path you take, and there will always be those who dwell in the negative. Continue along your path regardless. Don’t listen to nay-sayers or negative, unsupportive people.

These are common stumbling blocks - but ones which can be overcome with a little faith and trust in the Universe. When you are undertaking your true soul mission, TRUST that all you need will come to you in Divine right time. You will attract the people who you are to work with, the appropriate clients or students and the appropriate environment/s.

When we love our work everything else falls into place. When you genuinely love what you do your main focus is not money-based but rather love-based - and the Universe will take care of the rest.

"When a man is willing and eager, the gods join in."
- Aeschylus

So, becoming a ‘professional’ spiritual worker entails being paid appropriately and fairly. Many lightworkers have trouble accepting money for the work they do. The idea is uncomfortable to them as their only desire is to shed their Divine love and light.

Consciously, money doesn’t enter into it. Those who are uncomfortable with the idea of accepting payment for spiritual work are often those who subconsciously recall past lives when many lived in communal or kibbutz type settings. In those times all food and shelter was provided for them, leaving one free to focus on their spiritual practice without concern for the need to derive an income.

In today’s world though, we need an income to pay our bills, rent, mortgage, transportation and day to day living expenses. How can you expect to run a business (and your life) without the appropriate resources?

People around the world go off to their ‘jobs’ everyday with the knowledge that they will be paid for their efforts. Why should it be any different for you? Many people are paid an hourly rate or a salary for the work they do - that’s why they go to work. Why should that be any different for those who work in the spiritual fields? Your payment for the work you do is no different to that of any other healer, such as nurses, doctors and the like.

Making money from the work you do is in line with the Universal Spiritual Law of Giving and Receiving. The energy and vibration of your intentions will dictate the viability of your spiritual endeavour. If you enter a spiritually-based career with the sole intent of making money and/or finding fame, then you are most likely to fail. It is appropriate to earn an income from your spiritual work, but it can not be your main focal point.

Some lightworkers suffer from being shy, timid, lack self-confidence and/or are indecisive. This is ‘fear’ based and may stop them in their tracks. This is where the Universal Spiritual Law of Action comes into play. This law states that when you take action in the direction of your soul purpose (no matter how small that step may be) the Universe will take greater action in your desired direction, supporting your goal and encouraging further positive action on your behalf.

By taking action in the direction of your aspirations you are making a commitment to yourself and something that is of the utmost importance to you - and is of benefit to the world around you. That action step can be large or small – it doesn’t matter as long as it is a positive step forward. The Universe reacts and responds to your intentions so any step or action you take in the direction of becoming and ‘being’ a professional spiritual healer/teacher/writer/speaker will be a declaration of your intentions. Trust the Universe to open the right doors for you.

So it’s time to take action – NOW!

The best and most authentic way to teach (in all its’ forms) is to live your life in accordance with your principles and values. Live your life as a role model of what you are teaching. Walk your talk and talk your walk.

Allow people to familiarize themselves with you prior to booking an appointment. This can be achieved in many ways such as by writing an article for a metaphysical/New Age magazine in print or on the internet; set up a website or blog and write a short biography about yourself and the services you offer; organize and run a workshop; use word-of-mouth, and of course, keep a positive attitude and focus. The Universe will respond in kind by providing your audience.

Visualize yourself living your spiritual career right now. Bring it into the present rather than some far-flung time in the future. Visualizing it happening in the future rather than in the present keeps it in the future. Visualizations and affirmations are very powerful tools to utilize when bringing your dreams to fruition. Affirming your intentions is an integral part of engaging the laws of the Universe. Visualizing, affirming and taking action steps bring the reality of your successful and fulfilling spiritual practice to the forefront, in the present moment. Declare it to the Universe today.

Present yourself and your spiritual services to the public and have faith and trust that the Universe will send you appropriate opportunities.

When you put your efforts, heart and soul into giving someone a spiritual reading, a healing, running a workshop or giving a counselling session, it is appropriate that you receive something in exchange. This is important in regards to living a balanced life.

When you give, give, give and keep giving of yourself your energies become depleted and enthusiasm and passion wain. It is vital to balance the ‘giving’ with an equal measure of ‘receiving’. This is a need of basic human life. Do not deny yourself what you deserve and require as this is undermining yourself in every way.

If you only give out and do not allow yourself to receive, eventually you will begin to have feelings of resentment, of being bound, burnt-out and drained of energy. Deep down you’ll wish that others would acknowledge and fulfil your needs - but if you do not clearly stipulate those needs, then others will be unaware of them. This can become an on-going cycle, therefore it is important for all involved to be clear on what is required on behalf of both parties.

When someone requests a reading or appointment with you, make sure that you are clear about your needs (eg. Fees). If they choose not to book because they do not wish to pay a fee for your services, that is their choice. Do NOT sell yourself short.

On the flip-side, many people want to pay you for your services. They are thankful for and appreciate your loving help, guidance and/or healing, and genuinely wish to reward you. Not accepting their ‘gift of exchange’ can be seen as a bit of a rebuff and may lead your client or student to feel unnecessarily indebted to you. They may even feel ‘guilty’ about taking from you and not being able to give back in return.

By accepting payment for your spiritual services you and your client/student are performing a balanced exchange of energy. The giving of yourself is balanced out by receiving the payment. Your client values your services as in order to have received them they have had to exchange something of value.

When you accept payment for your services you are being supported. The income allows you to focus and devote more of your time and efforts to your spiritual practice. If you do not accept payment and cannot derive an appropriate income you will be needing to spend your valuable time and energy at a job to earn money. This detracts from your soul purpose.

Of course there will always be the odd occasion when your soul urges you to help, guide and/or heal, with payment being irrelevant. You’ll intuitively know when these situations arise and will proceed accordingly. Although no payment may change hands, you’ll be racking up some bonus good karma along the way.

It is of the utmost importance to yourself, your clients/students and your spiritual practice that you receive with thanks and gratitude.

**
Your purpose and soul mission as a spiritual practitioner (in all forms) is a life-long commitment - one that will bring healing, joy and rewards to yourself, others and the world. Along the way you will be sharing and sending out blessings, love and light to all ...

LIVE and LOVE your spiritual career today!

    2. Incredible! I was having this whole synchronicity moment with my Dad, who is on the other side now… like… an EPIC moment, and then it was as though the messages began flooding in. An alarm went off. I went to look at the time and decided to come to this site, which I check often. This is the first time I’ve ever clicked a link on that site on accident, and it brought me here. I just got my certification as a teacher of meditation and a dream work facilitator… I’ve been wishing for some guidance on how to start my business… I believe my Dad and my Ancestors, Angel Team, Spirit Guides brought me here. Incredible! Thanks, Dad! Thanks, Joanne!!

  5. Wow, I've looked at Sacred Scribes - Angel Numbers for many years now. Some of the readings were very profound and would have this article linked. I thought I had read this article, but this is the FIRST time I ever finished it and read it in full.

    I guess something in me is ready to accept that there is a possibility that becoming a lightworker, and that I can be compensated fairly for it. This definitely gives me hope.

    Thank you.

  15. Since I Was A Little Kid, i would look up in the sky alot and tell my Mother That the "stars" in the sky was Following us as we would walk In Brookly Nyc(where I was Born) and i always felt l;ike there was something going on around me that i couldnt quite put my finger on; Fast forward three decades later, i have experienced everything from astro projection and witnessing who I am Coming to terms with myself was "The Soure" but wasnt sure until this year,Have always felt like i have psychic ability but want sure until last year when i would focus on those same light beigns/angels that favor stars in the sky(the Watchers that are mentioned in the book of enoch that the church took out of the bible) to most who are spiritualy sleep anyway and some how i was guided to have silent thought while i would look at them and the it happened; i noticed that they would move as a response to my thought then in order to reasure myself that i have not gone Mad, i would ask them to move left or right in response to telepathic conversation i was having and they would immediately do so. I sometimes hear subtle respones but not full sentences from them but i know they hear me the way i wish to hear them in return but alll of there things were enough to keep me futher studying and searching and when i thought it didnt get not weirder i some how and i really cant recall how but within the last month i have heightened my understanding of this mostly one dided communication up un til now with angel numbers and how i know im not Crazy is no matter if it is a building number,receipt for random store or gas station,impressions from social media content that i post(im a rapper) oh the weirdest one was at the end of a juice world video i saw this morning for the first time ever(deceased rapper) who just so happens to display 999(destiny) through animation at the end before he dies in the video and ironicall goes to heaven but how ever no matter where i see these numbers ther alll coarlate with my life evry time.

    When i click on the link underneath the definition of them it always stresses me getting into a spiritual based business. I would love to do it for free but i have a child coming soon with endless other duties in my life as well so thats not reality for me so i hate to ask but i say all of that to ask how do i profit from this which they are asuring as well that i will.

  16. I know I’m not alone . I’m having so much conflict within myself it’s brutal although bearable. The ego is such a problematic voice to Lower and rather annoying . Self love why is it so easily given encouragement, subtle persuasion, playfully influenced or clearly guided path like “oh hey ,yea you were pose to left, yea left it’s ok we all get lost somewhere sometimes. I’ll be here if you need me .” for others yet to myself for myself to receive believe ,accept …….. Yo…I love/me too…… what is the right , question ? I haven’t figured it out yet. I love puzzles I just didn’t know I was one of many many most Exquisite puzzles… heavy Yo …… lol this ride is one for the books for sure but those Gforces whewwww like let me fix my face hold up hold up….

  19. Thank you for this guidance. I have been following your blog for number sequences over the past couple of years. Only now I’m highly feeling that it’s the right time to start. I resigned from my well paid day job this month after being in the field for 10 years. Because I wanted to live my life purpose and live a spiritually fulfilling life. I felt it’s now or never. I’m still trying to figure out what exactly and how exactly. I believe the universe and spirit guides will help me with it. Thanks again!!! May the Noble Triple Gem bless you!!!

  20. Hey Anonymous, (and to anyone else called to read this by your guardian angels)
    What is your skill set(s)? I'm a defense lawyer (still licsensed), and mediator who left the field before the pandemic, but I'm moving on into spiritual work and non profit. Looking for a like minded spiritual/light worker who has genius computer skills. We got work to do πŸ˜‡. If We build it in faith and love, They will come. Reach out to me if you have the light in your heart and what's needed to contribute. You'll feel it if you do - your guardian angels will make sure. They're like magnetic or gravitational pulls on your entire being. I'm still in awe of it. I'm Wren and you can reach me at parkerpwren@gmail.com
    blessed be to everyone that loves with all their heart. The humanitarian world needs us more than ever right now.
    Love always, Wren

  21. Been stuck, or I’d say a more accurate description of my current state of being would be more aligned with “experiencing life as it comes patiently awaiting the Universe to unveil the next action required of me in that moment towards my soul’s highest purpose and truth for this lifetime.” The past year and a half to two years I’ve gone deep within my consciousness developing a far stronger understanding of myself and the Universe which has opened my inherent abilities for intuitive energy healing as well as other psychic clairevoyaint/clairsentient skills. This was something I thought only gifted to certain people but here I was unraveling one after another while continuing to practice and exercise those “muscles” and actually observing real and actual successful gains to increase my trust in what I was experiencing!

    For some time I’ve wanted to show others that this stuff is possible for anyone who wants to believe it possible. To open peoples minds to the Infinite potential that is the Divine spark within each and everyone’s heart and soul. This world however has made significant efforts for centuries to keep that from happening and this reality has made it difficult and confusing for me to find a practical way of doing the Lightwork I’m here to do and even when I remove my practicality from motivating my thoughts and feelings, I’m then left with a feeling of overwhelm by the World of choices I know I have to choose and so many look really appetizing but I resist telling myself, “I don’t know if I can really eat all that right now,” or “that’s going to eat up the rest of my funds that I have right now - which is essentially none now after quoting my soul sucking job and deciding to go undeciding for almost going on two months. Crazy right? Everyone else would agree, even the ones that encouraged me to do so in the first place but are now feeling obligated to financially support me; even my spouse is taking the reins having never been the sole bread winner throughout our relationship and she too has made a leap of faith in starting her own company making 100% natural organic and locally sourced horse and dog treats and though I know she’s doing a great job and I help her in whatever way I can or whatever way she’ll accept, this too has put my plans on the back burner even if it was temporary, it’s added up - I’m a very committed Virgo-spouse and will rather suffer myself to support the ones I love than to act in my own ambitions/desires. This is just an instinctual act that I will do more or less unconsciously because it’s a part of who I am. Now I’m left with, how to make these highest qualities of self manifest into a career..?

    Immediately after asking my guides to point me in the direction of ANY next step I could do to start me moving farther along my path, I came across this article at 10:10 in the morning (refer to angel #1010). Your article offered some sound advice as to something I could do and this comment is more less a preview of that thing. Let’s see where this roads leads shall we. Without a doubt, I’ll be having some fun with it.

  25. I've been seeing the number 1118 for the past 9 months or so. And in the past year, I've been making connections with people born on 11/18, including my father who I met for the first time since I was 4. Since then, I've been allowing myself to flow more than ever, in everything I do. When I'm not so serious, I find that it's really all play. Yeah, there may be a lot of doom and gloom out there, but I can't help but feel overwhelmingly positive, because the world is waking up. And the people need us light workers to help them find their way home.

    I'm a light worker, a healer. I do it almost everywhere I go. But I'm learning to be less disruptive, and more responsive. I don't have to blind others with my light to stir them up. When I live in my light naturally, the darkness in others will respond. And when that happens, that's when I can respond back simply, truthfully, from the heart. That's when the healing happens.

    I've been hesitant about going official with what I do. There is always the fear that I'll succumb to the dark side of being an empath, getting fully absorbed into another's darkness and getting lost myself, like Robin Williams at the end of "What Dreams May Come". I don't want to live in fear anymore. It's okay to make a page on the internet and talk about myself, my journey, and allow others to come to me and pay me to hold space for them and love them. We can all heal each other. We can walk each other home.

  26. I got the number 669 and then googled it and found your article on that angel number which then led me to click on this article. This is exactly what I needed to hear in this very moment. I've been feeling a calling to quit my job to pursue a healing practice, but have come into the roadblocks you mentioned in this article. Your words cut deep to my heart and soul. Thank you so much for your words of comfort, affirmation, encouragement, and healing.
