Operating out of ego or authenticity?

How can you tell if you’re operating out ego vs authenticity? Heck, what even is Ego? Julia Kristina Counseling (link below) talks about ego as the part of us that “hustles for worthiness”. Here are a few questions you can ask yourself to determine if ego is leading or if “ego death” needs to happen…

    2nd comment: In the chariot card you showed here, if my ego is driving the conversation…If my ego is motivating me to behave in a certain way, then aren’t I the driver, not the figure in the distance? And maybe I’m trying to run over my true self because I feel threatened. I don’t know. That just popped into my head as I was listening to you speak. This is why I love tarot so much. It allows & forces you to think about the cards and images in so many different ways. And it’s so revealing.

    @@megadele65 ooooh absolutely see that as well! Tarot really is amazing! You have the archetypal meaning and then you layer it with context (of the reader, of the querent), and add to that our own filter with which we view the cards. The interpretations really are endless :) you definitely sent me down a rabbit hole today haha I love it!

    I LOVE this discussion about ego! I have not heard about the 4 Ps & 3 Cs before. And as I was listening, I had to ask myself “if I am operating out of ego, am I going to be able to honestly evaluate the 4 Ps for myself?” Because after all, ego seems to be the antithesis of self-awareness, so if my ego is driving the conversation or is the fuel for my motivation, can I be truly honest with myself in my evaluation? Having said that, I’m experiencing some difficulties at work with another coworker who I believe operates from ego. But after listening to your video, now I have to ask, am I the one who is operating out of ego? You kind of blew my mind today Anjie. Another great video!

    @@megadele65 and now you’re completely blowing my mind haha. Thats definitely food for thought! Also though I think that everyone operates from ego on a day to day and we claim insight and self awareness…so maybe it’s possible to sort of go outside yourself and see the ego as another part that’s acting out? Have you heard of internal family systems? I love that model because it uses a “core self” and then other “parts” of ourselves that clamor for attention.
