The Inner Work

Hard to do, I mean. The reading is easy.

Nearly every student I have ever had arrived carrying some version of feeling lost. A lack of direction, a sense of not quite belonging anywhere. Those feelings come from losing touch with who you actually are, and once that goes, what you want in life goes with it. So the first job in this area is finding your way back to the real one. The one under the hard shell, the marshmallow inside, as I call it.

Then the rest. Fear, which is mostly False Evidence Appearing Real. Denial, which is a mask we forget we put on. Letting go, which is the thing everybody says and almost nobody explains. The difference between helping someone and rescuing them, which will save you years. Hate, which is drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die. And life lessons, which start as a whisper, get louder if you ignore them, and by the time they are thermonuclear you should have listened a long time ago.

There is a lot of me in these pieces. I have done every one of these lessons the slow way, and hindsight is greasy walls. You cannot climb back up to the moment you were in. You can only see it clearly looking back, and then hand what you saw to someone who is still down there.

That is what this area is for.

If you would like this read against your own chart, my readings are here.

Topic pages for this area are being added. The daily posts in the group carry this teaching in the meantime.
