How do you deal with Lust and channel it constructively?
The Passion of Lust in type 8 revolves around an aggressive, pleasure-and-justice-seeking stance toward life, often balancing values like morality, freedom, rebellion, and hedonism. Some confuse this with CP6s' chronic and courageous defiance or the perfection-focused self-control of 1s.
But 8s grapple with visceral impulses, pleasure, power, and justice. Lust is an addiction and sin I confronted and indulged early on, often leading to struggles with control, excess, and possessiveness.
Here’s what helps me:
- Creativity: An outlet that transcends suffering and lust through sublime aesthetics.
- Health: Exercise, a good diet, and self-discipline over mindless indulgence.
