Fearful Child

The fearful child is the part of your being that is frightened by the world and all the terrifying uncertainty that it holds.  This child can come forward at any time, but is most often seen when you are faced with encounters that threaten your well-being and personal security.  The fearful child is the part of you that wonders if you are truly protected and is confused when circumstances occur that seem to appear as though you are not safe.  You may feel an overwhelming sadness and an almost paralyzing emotional terror or dread around the situation you are experiencing.  With each fear that comes forward it is multiplied by others and can soon compound to a level that is almost unbearable.  Even though these fears may seem irrational to others they are very real to you.  This makes the problem seem even more frightening because others may not fully understand why you are burdened with these heavy emotions making you feel even more alone.  In this state of despair you crave the counsel and protection of parental figures and may feel you have been abandoned by your guides and angel helpers.  You feel a need to be rescued from your current circumstance, yet at the same time you may be too embarrassed or ashamed to reach out for this type of help.
