“Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?”

“Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!” That famous introduction for the radio show The Shadow, that starred a vigilante with psychic powers, and narrated by Orson Wells seems particularly suited to this aspect of ourselves. The shadow aspect of Creating is self deception and illusion, so you must be careful not to delude yourselves into thinking  you’re making progress and changing when you’re still stuck in old habits and ways of doing things.     We have been so conditioned by meeting everyone else’s expectations and pleasing others that many of my clients often have no response to that question when I first ask it.  Remember to just be patient with yourself and the process and understand that even if you don’t fully understand what is happening, there is something out there that does.

TIP! : Think of yourself as an integrated whole and LOVE all of your respective parts. So embrace the Shadow aspects of yourself, the ones that you typically like to disown, because they ARE part of you even if they don’t fit the image of how you present yourself to the world outside.
