Kin 216: Yellow Galactic Warrior

Challenging others without challenging itself is impossible for the Galactic Warrior: its questions commit its actions.

You cannot denounce an inconsistency in others and tolerate it in yourself. When you call a practice into question, at work, in a group or in the family, you immediately check whether you practice it yourself, and you change your habits before asking others to change theirs; your criticism, already applied, becomes credible. This standard can turn against you, though. The Warrior finds flaws relentlessly, and every flaw in your own conduct calls for putting things right. Severity toward yourself then exceeds what you would show anyone else, until you no longer dare speak as long as your life is not beyond reproach.

Guide of this Kin, the Yellow Sun has a light that warms as much as it reveals. It lets you see clearly what is off in you without putting yourself on trial, and it closes its cycles one by one: the alignment between your convictions and your actions becomes a path taken in stages, each completed stage counting in its own right. Speaking truthfully before your own house is perfectly in order is what is asked here: accepting that gap, without ceasing to narrow it.
