Further work with it at this time turns to an introversion with the personal subconscious, and an overinvolvement with it as far as overall focus is concerned. The half-hour is sufficient and beneficial. A deeper involvement however at this time serves to focus your energies in a bunch, so to speak, in the personal subconscious, blocking creative energies that come from deeper layers of the inner self. The half-hour however will allow you, in a smooth manner, to communicate with this important area of the self in a way that will not block other energies, and that will be beneficial.

The quest is a good one. You have simply concentrated upon it too deeply. You have learned much, both in relating yourself to inner reality and to outer relationships, and the error is understandable. The outer relationships are serving you well, for you are already storing up many ideas for your work, for your painting, that have at least partially come as a result of your perception of others.

It is in your nature to use much of your energy in artistic creation. You must then turn it outward in this manner. From the wealth of inner data your nature demands that you form new gestalts, and in painting them you automatically relate them outward. You need the inner data and the journeys inward, but these must always be of a disciplined nature, and not overdone.

More energy indeed can be held in the personal subconscious in such a manner than can be used in studying other areas of the inner self, for it is in the personal subconscious that energy blockage most frequently occurs. This does not mean that you should cease in that direction. A smooth and disciplined schedule will serve you well here. I would indeed suggest however that this half- hour schedule not include your weekends.
