Introduction
This post presents some of the points that we can utilise to discover and know more about the hidden side of our psychology.
Notes
The moon in esoteric psychological terms, is our egoic psychology. So the egos of the visible side of the moon are the egos that we know and can see. Others can see them as well. The egos of the hidden side are the egos which we do not see. Others may see some of these hidden egos, yet there will definitely be egos that neither we, nor them see.
Amongst the hidden side of our egoic psychology, there could be facets of the egos that we do know that we have and do see. We just do not know and see those particular facets. They remain hidden. For example, we know that we have lust, however in our hidden side there are facets of lust that we don't know that we have.
Our principal, psychological profile mostly lies in the hidden side.
Egos and facets of egos remain in our hidden side simply because they are not acceptable to our view of ourselves and to our personality. These egos simply do not fit in with our self-image and our personality.
So much of our psychological work is here within the principles of this talk. The main objective of our psychological work is to transform darkness into light. The hidden side of our psychological moon is our darkness.
The hidden side of our psychological moon could be otherwise classified as our subconscious and unconscious.
To work with the principles of this talk we really need to be humble.
We need a lot of recognition and acceptance.
Humility in relation to this talk is to truly accept that there is so much about ourselves that we don't know and so much that there is to correct.
There is so much to see within ourselves. It is helpful to know that as soon as we see the mistakes, as soon as we can correct them and the sooner we can right ourselves and the situation.
We conquer the level of humility needed to work on the hidden side when the attitude of being happy to know what needs correcting in our psychology, appears in our emotional centre.
The following points are useful in discovering aspects of the hidden side of our psychological moon.
Discovery and Exploration Points
We project our defects onto others. When we assume that we know what others are thinking, feeling and doing, when they do not say anything, and when we don't see them acting is usually a projection of our hidden side.
For example, someone quickly puts something into their pocket or quickly hides their phone. We comment are you stealing something or looking at something you shouldn't be etc. etc. Why do we say this? Because that is what we do or have done.
We basically project onto them what we do, so that we don't know or accept that we do it. As soon as we realise that we do it also, then we know that it only refers to us and not to anyone else.
When we don't like others getting angry but we are often angry and we react angrily to someone else's anger. This applies to any ego, it could be lust, pride, laziness, greed or gluttony all the same.
When we don't allow others to feel sad, yet we feel sad often and give ourselves the right to feel sad but we do not extend that right to others.
When we can't understand a certain egoical behaviour and we become like fascinated with it or scandalised by it and judge it too harshly. This is because we have the same egos in our hidden side and we have not come to observe them and understand them yet.
When we judge others. When we judge we are judging based on what we are. We are the same psychologically as those that we judge psychologically.
If we see a defect in others it is certain we have it also. It takes one to know one. We know that we have it when others say that we have it also and we angrily refute it.
Mechanical antipathy and empathy. When we feel mechanical antipathy for someone, it is because we have the same defects. For example a controlling person will not like at first glance another controlling type of person.
When we protect the egos of others. Especially their weaknesses and we get annoyed or angry when others say that we shouldn't do that.
Anger protects the hidden side of the psychological moon.
Anger stops us from facing the truth about ourselves. Whenever we are angry about someone saying something about ourselves, it is the hidden side protecting itself from discovery. Excessive anger denounces the hidden side.
Impression memory stops us from seeing ourselves as we really are as well. We need factual memory to see our hidden side.
We need to let go of justifications also to better see the hidden side.
When we are under intense pressure the hidden side of our psychological moon starts to become observable.
We have created so many false self-images which are based on what we lack, or in other words what we have in the hidden side of ourselves. Implying that our false self-images are a reflection of the hidden side of our psychological moon. Here we project the hidden side of our psychological moon on ourselves.
