Avoiding your line of geometry is seen through identifying with the themes of your nodal environment, and/or by escaping and avoiding the given themes.

Acceptance of your environment lays in an awareness that this is not you, remaining unaffected by the difficulties and allowing these difficult themes to teach you a lesson and move you towards your correct determination and seeing where your purpose lays.

Walking in the dark

Being mentally assured of outcomes brings you to disappointment and frustration when the events don't turn out the as you expected. This is a very pressured environment that can't seem to make sense of why things that are happening always seem to be out of your control. A lot of potential for mental anxiety and depression due to not being able to predict how life unfolds. Being caught up in a loop of structured and standardised life as a way to avoid confusion. For the unaware, aloofness comes with great amounts of confusion, and the result is almost always mental anxiety. Running away from these themes by keeping busy, in order not to deal with mental pressures.

Walking in the light

The awareness of cycles and constant loops of renewal. Your life is in a constant cycle of change. If life is good don't relax into it. Always look ahead and expect that a sudden shift can come out of nowhere. You are not in control of your life. Just like in nature the leaves need to fall of the tree so that the new ones can grow again. Be empty of thought and expectation as life has its own plan layed out for you. Your path is not a paved road. You float along with the river stream. This is a mental environment, not a material one. If you don't thread life lightly, this environment will overwhelm you. Every bad situation will be met with opposition, and every good situation will eventually be met with darkness. Learn to accept that this renewal is a mandatory experience. There is no rebirth without death and no death without birth. Renewal is the only constant. Fighting it won't change that. To rise above it, full acceptance is necessary. Outcome does not exist for you, it's an illusion of the mundane life. There is no joy in making sense out of life. It's just about acceptance that the wheel always keeps spinning and you are never in control.
