The “Shadow Work” comic

I’m getting a LOT of “asks” to explain this comic :’D. So here we are…. Also, I want to apologize for all my mistakes- my EN sucks XD. “Shadow work” is a practice where you can go into your subconsciousness (aka your shadow part) to heal your inner wounds. It's a deep meditative state where you can have an out-of-body experience and project yourself into a particular place in your body (usually into the area where trauma is stored).

First, you need to reopen the wound by going through “ PERSONAL” hell, then you need to be approved by your inner child (aka your higher self in disguise XD lol). Also, you need to bring up a light with you (it could be an unconditional acceptance, compassion, empathy, or love) or a “guardian” (It should be a person or “SOMETHING” you trust the most). When you will be willing/able to SEE in the dark - then the healing “DRAMA” can start XD.

During this journey, your subconsciousness creates “emotional trials'' for your conscious part XD, because first, you need to learn a ton of hidden shit about yourself. The only way you can start to heal is by accepting your demons and angels (rejected parts of yourself), by knowing them through intimacy first. In this comic Nico’s entire Venus is thrown into hell, so Will helps Nico to shine a light on love in the shadows.

This comic looks so trippy and the passing between panels is so choppy because the whole action is happening in ALMOST a dream/trance state (aka between the fourth and fifth dimensions and even more lol). The fluidity of actions in this space is very chaotic because the whole scenery, surroundings, objects, and physics are projected by your thoughts, but embodied by your feelings. After all, you don't have a 3D body there + linear time doesn't exist. :D. You can,"literally" move and jump through shapes and contrasts, and "emotionally charged symbols", because this is a new grid for a space-time lol xD

I have been doing this for about 3 years now XD. You don’t need any drugs for it and it’s pretty interesting. Also “Shadow work” is known as Active imagination, Parts work, Voice dialogue, and Shamanic journey. So you can try it for yourself if you have a calling for this "woo-woo" stuff :D. I will add more info xD. I hope this will be helpful and thanks for reading <3333 ;3.
