Darkness & Light
"As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being." C.G. Jung
Only when working with our shadows we become aware of them and only then we can turn them into light. The most precious moments in the process of personal growing are those when we are able to put the light upon our darkness.
I hear the density of darkness
Unknown shape
Inside and outside of me
I am in it and circling around
Aware of its color, touch
My words are silent
Steps don't touch the ground
Powerful but vague call
Then a flash of light
Me and darkness caught
Hidden in the Light.

The poem was inspired by talking with people during my PEAT seminar in Vienna when one of the participant neutralized her Prime pollarities, Light and Darkness. The whole seminar and talk afterwards was very inspiring for all of us being there.
