One Month of Power Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Shallum's month-long reign is a symbol of how power lives first as an inner stance before it appears in form. In Neville's psychology, the true king is a state of awareness you entertain, not a person on a throne. The coup by Menahem is the moment when the outer scene yields to a stronger inner movement—your inner conviction asserting what you have already decided in imagination. The Chronicles are the memory of what you believed as real; therefore, revision is needed to keep the inner king intact. See the lesson: when you discipline your sense of self to remain sovereign, the external shifts that mirror your inner condition will follow. The story invites you to identify with the I AM—your undying, all-encompassing awareness—and to refuse to interpret a brief outer authority as the only truth. In this light, your true reign endures beyond the mere month of circumstance, because it resides in consciousness itself.
