By Jeff Foster
You hide away the fragments of yourself that terrify you, tucking them into the night’s embrace and the shrouded fog, waiting for the day you’re ready to confront them. It’s a clever trick, this burial.
But, my dear, you forget. You forget that the Underworld is nothing more than your abandoned pieces, left there by none other than yourself. It was you who crafted that monstrous realm, with its devils and dragons.
Those forsaken and frightened fragments ache to reunite with you. The darkness seeks you!
It’ll linger, trail you, shadow your every step. You can’t escape, for it’s all you—the discarded parts of your heart, all yearning for help, longing for integration, crying out for inclusion in your greater self.
I promise you, I promise you, even in your deepest despair and solitude, when the most hideous monster seems to chase you, if you pause, if you turn toward it and gaze with love when you’re ready, not a moment before, if you look deeply, through the eyes of love, you’ll see… yourself. There, it’s not death but life. No annihilation, only absolute security. You’ll encounter your own gentle eyes smiling back at you, a sanctuary amidst the chaos.
Your salvation dwells in the darkness, you see, and its salvation rests in you! You are One, always have been. No separation!
Fear nothing except the loss of fear itself! Let the darkness embrace you, my love, breathe into its sacred core, give it what it craves, and you’ll feel the most extraordinary Power, and bask in the most blinding Light!
So why darkness, you ask?
Because it shields you from your own boundless Power.
Until you’re ready…
