"It is a frightening thought that man also has a shadow side to him, consisting not just of little weaknesses- and foibles, but of a positively demonic dynamism. The individual seldom knows anything of this; to him, as an individual, it is incredible that he should ever in any circumstances go beyond himself. But let these harmless creatures form a mass, and there emerges a raging monster." ~ Carl Jung, “On the Psychology of the Unconscious“

The Purpose Of The Purple Saber

Imagine Anakin becoming the first Jedi in history to capture the power of both Light and Dark. The world is not a single entity, but typically it is two entities working against each other, to work in unison. Light, Dark; Death, Life; Water, Fire; Feminine, Masculine.

It is said that the eastern side of the world is more feminine as the west is more masculine. This comes from the belief of Taoism. Yin and Yang show the power of balance, the power of unity. Balancing the feminine and masculine within you, can only raise you. Creativity and Logic combined to be created as a compound force that cannot be compared.

I have feared my dark side for a long time in life. I have witnessed my Father's dark side, and I am almost an exact biological replica of my Father. We're not exactly the same, but I can see a glimpse of each other within one another. The manipulation, deceit, creativity, subtle power. It is scary. However, it does not need to be used for bad. All thing have two sides. I can be stubborn, which is typically a bad thing, however it can be seen as persistence from a different angle.

Use Your Full Potential

Star Wars is no joke. If you do begin to tap into your dark side, you can't let it overtake you. I've seen the power of manipulation, I've read it, I've experienced it, I've done it. There is so much on that side that brings control, but don't let is suck you in. Use it to create light, use it for good, for development.
