*HIGHER-SELF & DISTORTED EGO
The Dance of Light and Shadow
Understanding the subtle nuances of one's energy becomes an insightful journey between personal and spiritual existence. A recent conversation sparked a reflection on the challenge of differentiating between the higher self and the lower ego. So here's an attempt to shed light on this complex exploration.
Imagine being submerged in water, exploring the depths where visibility is limited. This metaphor captures the essence of navigating personal and spiritual energies. The ability to read energy in everyday life is akin to swimming on the surface, where one can take notes and live a routine existence. However, delving into the spiritual realm is like plunging into water—it surrounds and permeates everything, requiring a unique set of tools to decipher its intricacies.
Intuition becomes a guiding force, a feeling that hints at the energies at play. Yet, only through experience can one understand and interpret these energies. Each encounter is like a dip into the vast expanse, with subsequent reflections forming a mosaic of possible outcomes. It's the art of discernment, distinguishing between what appears to be and the profound reality of the spiritual journey.
Walking into a room, the ability to project energy and predict outcomes based on observable factors seems straightforward. However, the real challenge lies in discerning the purpose behind being in that space. Is it a genuine opportunity for growth, or is the ego leading the way? This level of questioning is where the journey takes a crucial turn.
Recognizing the difference between the higher self and distorted energy adds another layer of complexity. Higher self-energy from the universe unfolds swiftly, requiring pure trust. It's comparable to a tree's growth—slow initially, then suddenly bearing fruit. On the other hand, distorted energy from the lower ego is seductive, promising everything desired but unfolding at a more deceptive pace.
The struggle lies in deciphering whether the seduction is aligned with one's higher self or if it caters to the darker aspects of the ego. It's a fragile balance, requiring introspection to discern whether the attraction serves the spiritual growth of rebirthed intuitions or feeds personal demons of past insecurities and traumas.
As the spiritual journey continues, the challenge intensifies. Red and green flags may not be as easily distinguishable, demanding a deeper connection with one's inner compass. Closing energetic cycles, learning from tricky situations, and embracing the unknown become essential steps toward growth.
Trust in the visible and the unseen as their energetic frequencies reveal themselves as a dance of spirit light in the shadows of the soul's reflections. Closing energetic cycles, learning from experiences, and embracing the unknown are steps toward clarity and balance in self to make sound decisions within a choice.
It's a perpetual dance, and in acknowledging the interplay of light and shadow, we find the wisdom to move forward, one step at a time, on the ever-evolving path of self-discovery.
