Lantern

A lantern is an object that emits light. If the lantern did not exist, nothing would be seen. Nothing would make sense.

But the lantern is also the one who holds that object. Lantern - as a person - plays a very important role in directing the lantern - as an object - to the right place and thereby revealing it.

The light of the lantern can be weak, faint, or it can be blindingly strong. Of course, this is completely relative, it depends on the other observers how weak or strong they feel it is.

It is not the job of the lamplighter to decide how brightly he should shine, since he cannot influence that, and even if he could, what would be the point? From his point of view, this property is completely neutral.

The owner of the lantern has an important role: to keep the glass windows of the lantern as an object as clean as possible. If you don't keep these glass sheets sufficiently clean, the lantern will have no light, since it will not be able to flood its surroundings with light. If this doesn't happen, it doesn't matter where you take the lantern, because you won't be able to see your surroundings, you won't be able to explore them. If these glasses are only partially dirty, you will perceive the environment around you in a distorted way. In addition, it will be especially confusing that depending on the direction in which you hold the lantern in front of a certain object, you will get a different image of that object.

As you can already guess, the light of your lantern is the love from your soul, the windows surrounding your lantern can be colored or stained by your different beliefs, and the person holding the lantern is yourself, your whole self, including your physical body, mind, and higher self.

If we want to analyze this picture a little further, you can perhaps imagine that the arm that holds the candlestick is your physical self, your upper body, which is able to bend in certain directions, if you want to examine something more closely, is your mind, and your legs are the body parts controlled by your higher self that carry you through your life's journey.

Just like when a person's legs, upper body and arms are out of sync; if the intention of the higher self, the mind, and the physical body are not aligned, the entity is not functioning optimally. Listen to your intuition, listen to your thoughts, and listen to your body's signals. The goal is to harmonize them and act accordingly.

Let this be today's lesson.
