Making Money

[Aion]

I would say that money most often represents power to people and so it is seen as a cure for powerlessness, as well as a way to secure power. Power is seen as the base of security. For some power is lower and is a primal expression of raw natura. To others power is the higher faculties and the abilities of mentation. Still others view power as love. Yet common to all of these is a striving towards some state of either power or powerlessness. Sometimes powerlessness is pursued as a way to allow a power greater than one's self to make the directions, but I think that eventually power is realized as a necessary step towards powerlessness and vice versa.
