Light-work is a concept that I have associated myself with ever since my spiritual awakening in my early 20s. To be a light-worker is to carry with you the wisdom of the ancients, and apply that wisdom to spiritual missions that are bestowed upon you by the universe along your path. It is rising up to one's spiritual calling, and wielding your strengths through action in the face of fear and doubt. Its showing love and compassion for your fellow man, and defeating those that seek to destroy the good in people. Being a light worker also means taking care of your Earth mother Gaia, speaking up for her, and defending her.

These days I prefer the term light-warrior over light-worker, since it feels like we are fighting an etheric cold war between us, and the shadow forces that currently control the world and its masses. Our societies matrix simulation has most humans caught in a psychological trap, by tricking minds into believing whatever they want, using various subliminal persuasion tactics. As this fairy tale is discovered as myth by someone, we can begin the process of pulling them out of their dream state, and into the reality of truth. Once led to the water of purity, only they can make the choice to drink, and take action to manifest the better world we all desire.

True light workers are empathic, and are always concerned about the well-being and feelings of others. They are connected to the divine essence of good, and have allowed the light energy to become one with them, submitting to the will and duties of love and positive evolution. We share a sense of oneness with all life, and will always prioritize the needs of the light, ahead of self- benefiting interests. With enough light-work experience however, you will being to mesh the needs of the light and your own needs, as one in the same.

One thing I do as a light-worker is give away my conscious Hip-Hop music that I create for free, to everyone who wants it. I do not want any financial chains restricting anyone from the divine messages I have been tasked to deliver through my voice. If I charged for the vibrations I create, I would have a little more financial wealth, but the world would be all the lesser for it, which would make me feel unbalanced - this is the sign of a light-warrior.
I am also in the process of taking spirit music one step further, by creating a mix-tape compiling all the conscious Hip-Hop emcees and bands I have been blessed enough to have been graced by in the last few years. Bringing all these power-house, light-warrior vocalists together in one project, is going to do wonders for our mission of healing this world and our people. I also have plans to record a long collaborative track with as many artists from the mix-tape as possible, and shoot a music video for this mostly in Acapulco, Mexico at the 2019 #Anarchapulco conference.
Speaking of taking things one step further, I recently started a weekly Steemit contest called #EarthDeeds. This contest was inspired by the every day actions I take to reduce my carbon footprint. These kinds of actions are routine for me, but I realized recently that this is a rare thing. Through the #EarthDeeds contest, we seek to make these kind of routines not so uncommon, by having more and more Steemians inspired to report on their daily "small" eco-friendly actions, which will hopefully inspire many others to take more actions towards a better environment, and also waste less.

It means that you ARE the light, and the light is YOU. The light is good, love, oneness, pure soul, and spirit. If you work for these attributes of humanity, than you are a light-worker, if you fight for them, then you are a light-warrior, and all of us need to become this if our species is to survive. We are literally fighting for our lives, our freedom, and our home.
P.S. - @eco-alex, I love how you related this concept to Star Wars... Awesome. Here is his answer to this question for any interested parties.
Do not forget that my debut conscious Hip-Hop album is completely free for download on Bandcamp and Soundcloud (click the links to go to my music on those platforms), or CLICK HERE for download instructions.

Do you accept donations for your music? I am the same as you in that regard i struggle to accept money in this way for 'lightwork', however, I read this somewhere and i cant remember where, possibly the Law of One books, that for true balance some form of exchange is needed, money is energy and that is one form, or a gift, or a favour etc. One thing lightworkers struggle to accept is that they are not only here for others, they are here on their own journeys too, and often learning to accept in return is difficult.
On the flip side of that I always try to ensure that i reciprocate good deeds, good work etc etc. I feel awkward taking money for my own work, but i also feel awkward not giving anything in return if i have benefited from from someone else's work. Rather hypocritical ? ha
I think having had times in my life where i literally had 20 pence to my name, I despise the thought that many many people only offer their 'light' for financial rewards, often much out of reach to those who would truly truly benefit from it the most, and i do not want to be one of those. But i do need to eat, and pay my bills etc.
So accepting donations, basically covers all of the above. It does not exclude anyone who is unable to pay. It does not make people who like to give back feel awkward, thus reducing resistance to the information/light you are transmitting! And it also helps you cover your needs so you can keep shining!
I of course accept donations, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. My hope is that one day the equalizing energy exchange comes in the form of a very large donation, that will help fund all my future musical projects. I rarely ever get donations however, almost never, but I have received a couple.
ah good im glad to hear you do! And a bit surprised to hear that you don't get that many. Yea a big donation would set you up! I am trying to project that to manifest for you through the screen!! haha. Maybe it will help.
All in due time, I think it will happen when I have a bit more content published, likely after I complete the mix tape I am currently working on, and a second album.
beautiful read elamental! Totally dig that you channel your gifts into music.. which might be one of the greatest gifts that we have to soothe our souls and get our message out!
glad you enjoyed the star wars post.. we ALL know about this concept at least through the movies! <3
<ill upvote you later after the tribe vote comes ;-)>

Great answer @elamental, it is true there are so many ways that people can work to help enlighten and awaken others, you are doing fine work through your music my friend xxxx
Thank you @trucklife-family, I do my best to cast good vibrations into the world.
What a lovely addition to my day. I'm loving Steemit so much, finding those like you who are dedicated to healing, empathy and caring for others.
Peace Love & Steeeeeem
I am glad that I have the opportunity to make a bigger difference on this planet. I know my efforts are helping, we can only grow more from here.
Indeed we can. Thank you and I appreciate your reply. It means a lot! :)
Absolutely, blessings friend.
well written article sir, informative and personal. I very much feel your pain on accepting money I however see a balanced exchange between consenting adults as a fundamental right, and this platform is the perfect vehicle for that. So please try and be easier on yourself, when you inspire others through your soul filled work it is the natural cosmic order to give love in return. I think you might enjoy the work of Walter Russell who is an illuminate by any standard I can judge his actions by.
Please take a look at what I have to offer, if it speaks to you share it here.
In Love/light,
Cosmic Man

STOPHey mate, loved this entry into the question...
I never thought of the term 'light-worker' before... and yes, I think I agree with your take on that. There is the implication that it's 'work', and I'd say that most of the people we describe wouldn't even consider it 'work' by any standards.
Light-warrior seems a bit martial for my tastes, although I completely get it, and is a good reference.
I wonder if the term 'creator/creatrix' wouldn't simply describe these kinds of people....?
Light warrior is pretty well established in my conscious circles, and I see where you are coming from, but the warrior word is necessary since we are in fact fighting a war here... I just chose to acknowledge that, some do not want to believe it.
Yes, may we all raise our vibrations to ascend the awakening that is here in every powerful moment of now! We need ALL LIGHT WORKERS to activate your chakra grid with love! Spin them, watch this party clear, of all the planets fear.... only love and light here! @elamental thank you for your state of "being"..
Thank you for you state of being as well, that dream synchronicity we had in our conversation in the comments of my other post is mind blowing.
