Anger is a lower vibration that is everywhere in our environment and it shows us that much work needs to be done individually to raise this vibration in our atmosphere.
When you go within and release the toxicity of anger into Divine Light (you don't want the toxic vibrations in the atmosphere), you automatically raise the vibrations in your environment
When you or someone you know is angry, this intense emotion is an external signal revealing that there is much pain underneath.
At this point, it is important to go within to find the cause of your anger. Anger is only the reaction – the tip of the iceberg. There is a lot of emotional baggage from experiences underlying the anger.
An angry person is not exploring their emotions, they are exploding from the intense pressure inside
Here is what Gary Zukav says about anger from his book “The Heart of the Soul”:
"Anger lashes out at a target which could be another person, a group of people or the Universe. It is righteous and self-important. It does not listen to, respect or care about others. It makes others wrong, inferior or inadequate. Anger only cares about itself. It wants what it wants when it wants it, and on the terms that it wants it."
What is anger showing us? Those who are angry do not really know what they are feeling except the rage that is exploding within them. Anger is very destructive leaving only damage behind. The anger within one is the barrier of the real emotions lying underneath.
Lack of Love
An angry person is not a loving person. The anger that one feels is isolating. It pushes away exactly what the person wants – companionship and understanding.
Anger is the agony of believing that you are not capable of being understood, and that you are not worthy of being understood. G. Zukav
So now you know that underneath the anger is pain and lack of self worth, and along with that goes fear.
What is important is that the one who is angry starts to explore the emotions underlying his or her anger - to go through and discover what is causing the pain and the fear and where it originated. This usually comes from childhood.
Perhaps the anger is a learned behavior that a young child picks up from their parents or caregivers. If a young child is experiencing anger surrounding them it will produce fear within the child. Often times, the child will feel that he or she is the
cause
of the anger.
It does not mean that one has to go through the same emotions that were experienced as a young child, just to
release
them. Once that process is started, it is important to do it each time the anger surfaces. All these hurtful emotions such as anger, jealousy, resentment, sadness have many layers. Going within is like peeling an onion.
As I mentioned in other articles, we are all in earth school and the Universe provides us with many lessons over and over again until we start walking in our own power.
What is anger?
Anger is a lesson that is showing us (I say 'us' because we all have anger on some level within) what we need to work on.
