The Parable of the Blinded City

The intricate dynamics of human relationships, especially marriage, finds a place for certain archetypal energies to play a critical role in fostering connection, passion, and growth. Among these are the Jezebelian and Delilah energies often misunderstood, yet profoundly important when expressed in healthy and balanced ways. These energies, far from being inherently dark or destructive, hold the potential to nurture and sustain a relationship when channelled correctly. However, when twisted by darker forces whether the influence of the devil, as some might see it, or simply the shadowy aspects of human nature they can become destructive and unhealthy. Understanding Jezebelian Energy The Jezebelian energy is commonly associated with ambition, assertiveness, and a commanding presence. It embodies the qualities of confidence, determination, and a strong sense of self. While its Biblical namesake has a history of being demonised, this archetype can represent feminine power and leadership when embraced in its purest form. In a healthy context, Jezebelian energy brings strength to a marriage. It inspires both partners to pursue their goals while maintaining mutual respect. It promotes clear boundaries, purposeful communication, and the courage to challenge stagnation. However, when distorted by the darker impulses of pride, greed, or the desire for control, this energy can become toxic. When influenced by the dark nature of humanity, Jezebelian energy may manifest as: • Overdominance: A relentless need to control, often at the expense of the partner’s autonomy. • Manipulative Power: Using cunning or force to gain the upper hand, regardless of the relational cost. • Arrogance: A refusal to compromise or admit vulnerability, leading to emotional detachment or conflict. This twisted form of the Jezebelian archetype loses its empowering essence and becomes a force of destruction, tearing down the very foundations it was meant to build. Understanding Delilah Energy Delilah energy, on the other hand, is rooted in charm, influence, and an intuitive understanding of emotional dynamics. This energy is sensual, alluring, and adept at fostering intimacy. At its best, it is the gentle thread that weaves emotional depth and trust into a relationship. Yet, when distorted by darker forces be it personal insecurities, selfishness, or malicious intent this energy can turn into a weapon of manipulation. Instead of fostering intimacy, it undermines it. Twisted Delilah energy might manifest as: • Deceit: Using emotional vulnerability as a tool to manipulate or exploit a partner. • Seduction as Power: Employing allure not for connection, but for control or dominance. • Emotional Exploitation: Preying on the partner’s insecurities to gain an advantage or retain influence. When the devil’s whisper, or humanity’s darker nature, twists this energy, it shifts from being a source of emotional nourishment to one of betrayal and harm. The Balance of Jezebelian and Delilah Energies A thriving marriage requires a delicate balance of both these energies. The Jezebelian energy contributes strength, leadership, and drive, while the Delilah energy softens with tenderness, allure, and emotional depth. Together, they form a harmonious interplay of power and vulnerability, creating a dynamic partnership where both individuals feel supported and empowered. However, when either energy is corrupted, the balance crumbles. Both the overbearing Jezebelian and the manipulative Delilah archetypes can create an environment of distrust, resentment, and emotional harm. These distortions not only weaken the marriage but also alienate the partners from their truest selves. When Darkness Takes Over: The Impact of Twisted Energies When these energies are twisted by the darker aspects of humanity such as greed, pride, fear, or malice they move away from their intended purpose of connection and empowerment. They become: • Tools of Control: Instead of fostering mutual growth, they are used to dominate or suppress. • Weapons of Deceit: Trust is replaced by manipulation, where love becomes conditional or transactional. • Sources of Chaos: Instead of creating balance, they fuel instability, conflict, and emotional wounds. These corrupted expressions arise when we lose touch with self-awareness, compassion, and the divine principles of love and unity. Whether seen as the work of the devil or the shadow side of human nature, they serve to sever rather than unite. Embracing These Energies in a Healthy Way To keep these energies in their pure and productive forms, it is essential to approach them with intentionality and self-awareness. Here are some ways to do so: 1. Self-Awareness: Reflect on how these energies manifest within you. Are you using them to build or to control? To connect or to manipulate? 2. Check Your Intentions: Ensure that your actions stem from love, respect, and a desire to grow together, rather than from fear, pride, or insecurity. 3. Balance and Boundaries: Recognise when to assert yourself (Jezebelian energy) and when to nurture vulnerability (Delilah energy). Both have their place, but they must exist in harmony. 4. Communicate Openly: Discuss your dynamics as a couple. Transparency helps prevent misuses of power and influence. 5. Seek Divine Guidance or Inner Wisdom: For those with spiritual beliefs, turning to prayer, meditation, or guidance can help purify intentions and align these energies with love. Wrapping It All Up So now we know, the delicate balance of Jezebelian and Delilah energies, because every relationship needs a dash of ambition, a sprinkle of charm, and absolutely no manipulation or power struggles (because that’s never happened before in the history of humanity, right?). If you’re lucky, these energies will dance together like a perfectly rehearsed tango if not don’t force it, congratulations, you’ve just enrolled in the emotional equivalent of a demolition derby. In truth, harnessing these archetypes in their healthy forms is like trying to assemble IKEA furniture without instructions: tricky, frustrating, but ultimately worth it when you finally sit back and admire what you’ve built. Just remember, if things get twisted by the darker side of humanity (or, you know, the devil himself), you might find yourself in a marriage that feels more like a high-stakes soap opera than a harmonious partnership. So, here’s to keeping Jezebel ambitious but not power-hungry, Delilah charming but not manipulative, and Eggman…well, Eggman just trying to keep

We know history isn’t written, it’s rewritten. It’s not preserved, it’s repainted normally by the victors in power. And the ones who shine too brightly? They get rewritten the most. Maybe Solomon never fell. Maybe his wisdom became too powerful, too untamed, too uncontrollable for those who wanted order through deception rather than truth. Maybe they needed to corrupt his legacy so no one would follow in his footsteps. Because a wise king, one who never strayed, one who understood both divine law and the power of man? That kind of ruler would be a threat to those who profit from ignorance. Maybe Jesus had a wife. Maybe he loved, maybe he had a partner, someone who stood beside him as an equal, a force of divine feminine energy that balanced his mission. But where is she in the records? Wiped clean. Erased. Because a Christ who understood and honored union would have been too dangerous for those who needed a detached, untouchable figure. A god-man who could never be fully human, never be fully relatable. A Christ with a wife? That would mean love, family, connection. a different kind of power. So they rewrote him. Made him solitary, above it all, unreachable. And Anubis? They painted him as dark, a jackal-headed deity of the dead, when in reality, he was one of the greatest keepers of light. Not a force of darkness, but a gatekeeper of transition, a protector of divine law, a being who saw through illusion. But they couldn’t let people see him that way. They couldn’t erase him, so they distorted him. And then, the final crime, the burning of the Library of Alexandria. They tell us it was an accident. A loss of knowledge, unfortunate but inevitable. But we know better. Entire civilizations, entire truths, gone overnight. Millions of scrolls containing the real origins of humanity, the secrets of energy, spirit, and power, and the truth of those who walked before us. The greatest repository of wisdom ever known, and it just so happened to burn? No. It wasn’t lost. It was destroyed. Not by time, not by fate, but by intention. Because too much truth in one place? That’s a threat. So they took the wisdom. They erased the stories. They rewrote the script. The righteous became villains. The wise became mad. The truth became legend. Truth never really dies. It just waits. And now? It’s surfacing again. The question isn’t if history was rewritten. The question is how can we change the narrative on our own history to serve a more harmonious society for the future?

If you’ve suffered deep wounds, especially those that seem to repeat across time then know this. The only way to overcome them is to learn from them. Life can be unfair, and people may try to hurt, manipulate, or betray you, but no one can access the core of your being. That part of you is untouchable, like the Earth’s core, hidden yet indestructible, beyond the reach of any external force. Think of Alden the Great, the air wyvern whose fire burns unseen by human eyes. Just because something is invisible does not mean it lacks power. The same is true for you. No matter what happens, your essence remains intact. Those who seek to harm you are only battling illusions as they can never touch the eternal fire within. Your strength lies in remembering this truth. Let the lessons shape you, but never let them define you. You are more than the pain of your life and you are the unshakable force that survives it.
