Yep emotions themselves are signposts... i called it marker.
Btw beliefs can be many things:
emotional schema (beliefs about emotions & how you consistently react to emotions based on past experiences like shame, guilt, anger, pain, anxiety, confusion, self-critical etc.,).
cognitive schema (how you view self e.g., unworthy, unlovable, etc.,)
biases/assumptions (could be epistemological, ontological etc.,) and so forth
world views (global beliefs)
E.g., I feel angry but I shouldn't feel angry bc that's not nice thing to do... My spiritual teachings taught me that feeling angry is not compassionate so I am just gonna sit on it... I am going to feel anxious and ashamed at myself instead of becoming angry.
There's no acceptance of self yet and there's no honesty yet... the anger is pushed away (denied) so it is repressed and expressed via more comfortable/accessible emotions like anxiety and shame. If one were to comfortably access the anger and work thru all the emotional scheme related to it, the other beliefs like how one views self, more global beliefs etc., will change.
42.9 'The repression of emotions depolarizes the entity in so far as it then chooses not to use the catalytic action of the space/time present in a spontaneous manner, thus dimming the energy centers. There is, however, some polarization towards positive if the cause of this repression is consideration for other-selves.'
