The Left Hand Path
What is it?
The Left Hand Path isn't what most people think it is, it isn't the definitive path of evil and or hatred. Simply put, the left hand path is an understanding of one's own internal darkness. Again, as we associate with colors, shades and directions it is important to clear your mind of any previous understanding of what these associations mean. Black, Dark and Left are not to be in these contexts and conversations associated with evil or hatred. All of these things we associate with evil, and negativity are inherently parts of ourselves and sadly a part of ourselves we generally try to hide or run away from but just as the saying "The sweet just isn't as sweet without the sour" it isn't to understand that sour is bad or negative just a flavor or in this context an experience that exists on the opposite side of a spectrum of possibility. So with that being said, Black is merely opposite White, Dark opposite Light and Left opposite Right in between these things exist eternal possible shades, colors and directions and we as humans are not simply Good or Evil understanding that all these things exist within in us simultaneously is to better understand the self and the things, we are capable of. A peaceful person isn't peaceful because they are not capable of destruction and cruelty a peaceful person is peaceful because they know and understand their own capacity for destruction and cruelty but actively choose against said committing acts of destruction and cruelty. The Left Hand Path though many of us work in some capacity with Dark Gods, Demons or even Satan himself know that when we say "Left Hand Path" we are not only speaking of the spiritual aspects of what we do but in whole how we live our lives and how we understand and view the world around us. We see and appreciate the warmth of the sun and its life-giving abilities as well as appreciating the night and the darkness for the peace and time for regeneration it gives us and our bodies and souls. The light and the Darkness must exist and exist simultaneously. Though it may be light for you now it is Dark somewhere else and this isn't just geographical but also personal today for you may be a good day for your partner or child it may be a bad day and can never expect someone else to ever sync with where we are we must allow ourselves to revel in our position while being understanding of others this is what it means to follow the Left Hand Path!
