I find this thread sad, fascinating, and so true. The "inner snake" being discussed here has been given lots of different names and designations over the centuries... A recent book (and kind of a good one, I think) about it is called "Taming Your Gremlin" by Rick Carson.
Personally I've tried lots of approaches with mine. First I tried to talk back to it (recommended by a therapist). This did not work because it is stronger and more wily than me. Next I thought maybe I could eradicate it for good -- now no longer believe that's possible. My current M.O. is to allow it to bleat on softly in the background while I go about whatever task it's telling me I won't be able to do. It's usually still bleating the same B/S long after I've finished the task! Love and best wishes to all. |

Thank you dear friend She did need to let it out.... Maybe this keeps us safe at such moments... She is not like this unless she is under extreme pressure, thankfully... Maybe she was ultimately trying to help us.... Thank you for the love and from all posters Much love to you and everyone today |

My snake has become quiet ever since I reminded him about my aim.

Does she carry a message to you with any truth? My snake sometimes tells the truth in a cruel way. Other times she spouts lies. Much love to you dear bear |

I send love to our inner snakes. I respect those who do not silence or deny their snakes. Sometimes I think they carry an important message.
