Why Being Awake is not the same as Being Aware

We tend to think that if we are awake, we are also aware, but I've found that even though we use the words interchangeably, they are not quite the same.
There are people that are awake spiritually but unaware of some of the things happening on the planet (which could be detrimental to our health or survival as a species).
And there are people who are aware of those things yet are not aware of their own spirit or soul - so they are not spiritually awake, yet they are awake to conspiracies, for example...
We need to have both now - it's important - because our power lies within the embodiment of our soul.
