Greetings,
Greetings,
Our shadow side,
Our dark side,
Our demon,
Our warrior,
Our fire,
The other half of us,
The boundary guardian,
The healthy ego,
The menace,
The rascal,
The protector.
We sometimes suppress it,
Sometimes it's reactive.
Those are the two shadows,
Repressed and reactive.
The repressed one is we've been taught to be a good little girl,
A good little boy our whole life and then we people please and get trampled and we have no boundaries and then when it boils and pops out then it becomes reactive and then we are too aggressive and then the dog is off the leash.
So today my conclusion and what I wanted to talk about is the answer is to acknowledge the dog or the dragon or the warrior,
The sword.
You have to acknowledge,
We have to acknowledge it exists.
You have to acknowledge that you are capable of killing someone,
You are capable,
Every human being is capable of immense dangerous deeds but we don't do it,
You don't do it,
You are capable but you don't do it and that's the thing like because if you deny it,
You deny your fire,
You become depressed,
You lack vigor because the same place sparks humor,
The same place sparks creativity,
Curiosity,
Exercise,
It's the fire,
It's your fire element.
You can't deny your boundary protector without denying your inner child who wants to run around and play and jump and make fun of stuff like you,
You kill your humor.
So what to do?
Well we gotta gauge it.
The thing is to moderate it,
The thing is to at the same time acknowledge that there is a dangerous side of you,
There is a potentially violent side of you and then dose it,
Let it out when it's needed and reel it back in when it's done its job.
Don't keep it locked in,
Don't bottle it and on the other side don't let go of the leash,
Don't pull the sword out immediately,
Breathe first but know that the sword is there.
The biggest issues we have are with two extremes where you never pull the sword out,
You never say what you want to say,
You never pull the boundary,
Draw the boundary and then you feel resentment,
Then you turn the fire on yourself with auto-destructive behavior,
With addictions,
With depression,
With a thousand different things where the fire consumes you.
There's a saying that if you are friends with everyone you are enemies with yourself and the other side is if you are just,
If we are just reactive to everything,
If we pull the sword on every little thing and that's the pendulum.
So my lesson and whoever wants to take it as their lesson is dose it,
Have it ready and be okay putting it back into its place when it's done what it needs to do.
I used to judge myself for having it but you can't not have it,
It's the thing that's gonna save you if somebody attacks you,
It's how you run away from lions in the jungle if you are ever in the jungle or it's the part of you that's gonna put its fists up if somebody tries to rob you or whatever.
It doesn't even have to be a physical encounter,
Most things in life today are emotional,
Boundary-wise.
So I try to not judge that part of me as bad because that's the root of everything you know good little girl,
Good little boy.
Have I been good?
Is this good enough?
Am I bad?
If I say no,
No we're not bad if we say no.
Good and bad,
You know,
That's the eternal question.
The thing is dosing,
Dosage is everything in this context.
So you need the other side,
Just learn how to control it,
Learn how to control it,
Learn how to control your fire,
Channel your fire.
Check out Elemental Balancing course,
It has a lot to do with how to channel the fire,
It's on my website.
Alright,
I feel satisfied with this and I will see you,
I mean I won't see you,
You will hear from me soon again.
Peace,
Health and abundance.
