Attachment

Attachment

Attachment is established when an individual seeks protection, security and well-being with a person or circle of people. Or when a person is in a situation of dependency due to an intellectual or physical deficiency caused by age or illness.

In the Mandala of Emotions attachment belongs to the family of desires. Attachment and hope are two brothers with antagonistic paths in terms of personal goals. Hope projects, attachment introjects. The flip side of attachment is cunning. In this case, cunning originates from the excessive use of dependency.

Emotions are in balance or not. This depends on the mode, the occasion and the duration of the emotion. Attachment when balanced leads to success, but when it is excessive or deficient, it leads to failure.
