Nobody can entre my inner sanctum and become bonded with me (relationship-wise)
unless they clearly demonstrate (over sufficient time and circumstances) that
they are living by this code - no exceptions!
You'll do yourself short with this one.
Imho it's necessary that another first has to enter your inner sanctum before they can prove themselves.
It's like building a great wall around yourself and letting nobody in, unless they can climb this wall.
Healing ourselves for me is (among other things) learning to trust our instincts again. Sometimes we will hit a wall, but other times we will do good.
Open up, don't be afraid, trust yourself.
