What Is The Ego And How Can We Transcend It?
The ego is a third dimensional tool our human body uses for and identity and protection. As we move toward the fifth dimension, some say we need to get rid of it, some say we need to tame it, and some say we should love it. What actually is our ego and what should we do with it?
Why do we have an ego?
The ego’s job is to protect us and to keep us from knowing who we are in the veiled experience of third dimensional incarnation. It has been termed the “lower self” compared to aspects of our oversoul that exist in higher vibrational dimensions. As multidimensional selves, when we came into this body we knew that we would forget who we were as part of the experience of lower dimensional existence.
The ego is not who you really are. It is your self image and is not even the image that others may see. 
It is a mask of approval, it wants to be in control, and it is driven by fear. It is partially responsible for not allowing you to love yourself 100% because it hides who you are.
Identifying why we have this lower self and the aspects of it is essential in the awakening process of ascension. Removing this veil sheds more light upon areas of ourselves that need healing. In order to get to the core of the self, we have to begin peeling the layers of the mask to reveal what lies beneath.
The shadow self
A shadow self is part of the “alter ego” and facing it is called going through the dark night of the soul. Part of the ego’s job is to allow other parts of your soul to come forward to be healed in this reality because we cannot take this part of with us into the higher dimensions due to the Law of Vibrational Attainment. The goal is to heal all of our lower energies and become whole again in a higher vibrational existence.
Facing our shadow self can be a frightening experience, and is probably the number one fear of an individual. When you are ready, the third eye mirror mediation is a good way to see the different multidimensional aspects of yourself. Just by acknowledging that they are a part of you but intending that they be healed and integrated into your heart space, light is shed on the shadows and a new way of being can finally be achieved.
Our subconscious mind is connected to Source. Our conscious mind (ego) sometimes feels the opposite. For example, if a person has a life threatening illness, the ego may be in fear of dying, whereas the subconscious mind or higher self knows that there is no real death of the energy that is your soul.
Awakening to who we really are
As we planned, at a trigger point in our life we begin to awaken to the fact that we are 
multidimensional souls having a physical human experience. When we realize that there is a higher aspect of us that we are tethered to, the ego begins to fear that it will lose its identity. Part of the ascension up the spiritual ladder is to “lose” the ego and expand your consciousness to focus on a higher aspect of yourself.
Eventually as we strengthen this connection with our higher selves and our oversoul, we will not need the ego’s identity or the third dimensional experience anymore. However to completely lose it would defeat the purpose of living in physicality right now. Instead, we can work with the ego to help it lessen its hold on the veil that shelters the truth from us as we continue to move toward being able to handle the truth.
