Agoraphobia, or the fear of open spaces, suggests an overwhelming dependency on a “safe space,” as many agoraphobics are so incapacitated that they either never leave the house, or do so only under great duress and obligation. Can Creator comment on this troublesome condition, especially because many seem to develop it without a discernible reason? What is the number one cause, and what is the hope for healing?

The agoraphobic individual is a textbook example of someone who is incapacitated because they are wrestling with deep inner trauma below their conscious awareness. In that deep level of the subconscious mind, they are reviewing records of other lifetimes of tragedy and horrific traumas they have been subjected to again and again. All of that negativity is causing fear and concern those bad times will reoccur. So the state of being that seems so inexplicable where people are hampered and diminished by their own choice to keep themselves in a cage, in effect, is truly for a good cause seen in that perspective, that they are truly wrestling with gigantic threats that are looming, in their mind at least, and they are simply wanting to save themselves from what their deep subconscious fears will befall them if they venture forth and take any kind of risk interacting with the outer world. When someone has been captured by marauders, raped and beaten to death, and this has happened more than once and followed by many travesties committed by criminals preying on them, leaving them naked and penniless to fend for themselves, having had all their possessions stolen, or becoming separated from others in a migration and dying alone in the wilderness of thirst, starvation, or freezing cold, those kinds of thoughts lead to fears which are outsized and understandably, a challenge to cope with. That is the struggle of the agoraphobe—they are seeing this panoply of tragedies and are simply fearing they will once again be swallowed up. So in a sense, their fears are not at all irrational, they are simply a misinterpretation because the conscious self does not know even, what is going on in the deep subconscious, and the latter is not sophisticated enough to know that it is worrying solely about past events and they are no longer part of the current life. That child-like part of the self simply cannot reason in the way the conscious mind puts things in perspective. What is needed is deep subconscious trauma resolution work which can only be done through channeling of the deep subconscious and is being pioneered by the channel bringing forth these words. So this is a topic with broad implications for every human being, not just people with this affliction who are in a small minority, but it represents the tip of an iceberg that is universally experienced at times during every life and is a major source of anxiety across the board, as well as many self-defeating behaviors.
