Our essence can provide for an understanding and balancing of the emotions that one experiences.

But when a role is chosen as a means of pleasing someone else or has become outdated, one begins to feel very ill at ease with it.

When inappropriate role playing is carried out for too long, it becomes difficult to express the true self in the world. There may even be a feeling of uncertainty about who the true self is. We can help in the process of remembering and bringing the true self forward again; creating new, more appropriate images and roles to accommodate this.

This wound was most likely caused during a time of severe persecution, thus leaving the individual feeling cut off from any experience of healthy connection to humanity. The person feels a deep mistrust, thus they hold themselves back from experiencing healthy, nurturing, loving relationships. It is time to reconnect with the energy and love of human / God connectedness.

A feeling of connectedness to humanity and the ability to experience friendship and love will return.

If one is feeling overly attached to outcomes or to certain beliefs, there is an inhibition of the expression of the Spirit within, which is naturally expansive and accepting.

Because they see so much to consider they often feel overwhelmed and have little faith in their own ability to make the right decision.
