XV. The Devil

Affirmations
I recognise my dependencies, fixed ideas, distractions or the thoughts that obsess me.
I free myself from the illusion that I have no alternatives.
I accept my unsightly side as part of me, for everything is part of the whole and everything wants to be loved. Only through self-love can I heal this part within me.

Keywords

  • Lack of freedom and voluntary dependency (the chains are not very tight), meaning clinging to values, situations, perspectives, substances or people that restrict us; and with this, the illusion that there are no alternatives
  • The dark side, evil, the shadow; character traits we do not want to acknowledge, and the opportunity to get to know, accept and henceforth deal consciously with this unintegrated, unwelcome side of our personality
  • Lack of will, failure to keep good intentions, violating our principles
  • Temptation, susceptibility to seduction, and the warning that we are playing with fire (beware of excess, dependency and vulnerability to blackmail)
