This fourth stage symbol brings to us the hint of a technique of transformation of the personality. What predominates is a sense of inner conflict and an over-selfconscious attempt at "being oneself."

Yes, that is downright horrific, isn't it?:rolleyes: God didn't put a thing in the Heavens with the specific intent of being malefic. [/QUOTE]
