Ah, now i understand!
In fact, this question might be of great value here, since the tendency to be on the analytical/intellectual side semms to be predominant.
I think the advantage in analysis considering polarization is, that you would have a control mechanism, that keeps you from acting out unconscious "negative" emotions. And that it gives you a means of understanding whats happening at all.
The disadvantage would be, being stuck in intellect would keep you from "knowing yourself" on a deeper level. One can get lost easily in intellectual "contemplation" , being led astray more and more from the actual deeper issue.
Since the ego has a strong controlling part, intellectual thoughts would be a reflection of that control.
They would also have a controling tendency, leading purposely (although unconsciously) further away from the deeper root of whats happening at that time.
From this perspective, polarization is difficult, because one never knows about ones "hidden agenda".
I am being fascinated with "deep roots" and i believe i have found these (actually this is not the deepest layer, but probably for a long time the deepest one accessible) in trauma.
The choices one made while experiencing trauma are the ones to be corrected now in adult life, in order to polarize positively.
Every controling part of us (including intellectual control) will avoid the traumatic experience to reoccur at ANY price. This would be what makes up our hidden agenda.
So, it would be close to impossible or at least very hard ( and slow) to use the very instrument that KEEPS us from experiencing the root of "bad choice" as a tool to ACCESSthe deeper roots in order to make better choices.
One can make better choices with the intellect purely, but this would need intense discipline, since there is always a (much stronger) force pulling in the opposite direction, which one wouldnt even know.
On the other hand, intellectual control is what can keep us from drowning in emotions and unconsciousness, until the point is reached where there is enough conscious awareness available to stay present. From this point on, intellectual control would not be needed anymore.
This is at least, how i view it at the moment.
A further note:
There is a powerful ancient reathing technique available, called the "alternate nostril breath" which harmonizes male/female energies and synchronizes left brain/ right brain.
If you dont know it and are interested, i will haüpily describe it!
