DRAGON POWER
The shadow is our psychic twin - the other side of our personality that sits just below the level of consciousness. Every aspect of our persona - which is in effect the mask we wear to present to others in the social world, may also conceal that of our truest nature.
"Perhaps all the dragons of our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us once beautiful and brave. Perhaps everything terrible is, in its deepest being, something helpless that wants help from us." - Rainer Maria Rilke
We put on a face to the world - one that fits within society, and developing our persona to be more flexible, realistic and amenable, aids us to develop, connect and succeed. And, providing we do not contradict nor hide our true self, this will be the most harmonious way to live. Ultimately, the persona develops in accordance with our truest nature AND is in balance within the realms of society.
