The nonexistence of dark magic

Breaking identification with the Light

We love being heroes or heroines in a story of overcoming insurmountable odds. We want to be proud of ourselves — as the overachievers in getting enlightened. We like to think we are the good ones, triumphing over evil. But here’s the rub: If we imagine ourselves as virtuous, it surely means that we are the villain from another person’s perspective.

There’s no way to be a light worker, without also being a shadow worker. In order for us to be able to travel inter-dimensionally, it requires a sense of familiarity and ease with both. Light and dark. Life and death. Creation and destruction. It all comes from the same source in the end.

If we identify with one aspect more than the other, we’re just putting on a personality according to our individual bias. It is preference, not truth. Because the truth contains both in equal measure. But you know, every good story requires dynamic tension. There must be the main character, as well as the circumstances that shape that character’s development. Neither one of these things can exist without the other.
