I'll say this, *acceptance* of the STS path is a lot harder than understanding it. When you find yourself implicated in mercilessly heinous stuff, it makes self-acceptance a real challenge. So, in that sense, maybe the STS folks can't claim to have all fun? ;-)
As I understand it, self-acceptance, or acceptance of any kind, is one of the great dangers that STS individuals face. They must under all circumstances maintain control, both of self and, so far as they are able, of others. Ra hints that this is why the Orion group rarely contacts wanderers -- the risk of depolarization in the face of love, acceptance, and forgiveness is too great.
Sorry about that. I guess I wasn't typing clearly. What I meant to say was that self-acceptance is also one of the biggest challenges an STO-type faces. In my experience, the more deeply you explore what's there crawling around in your unconscious self, the more intense the light, yes; but abundant intensity of dark power lurks there as well. It can be quite a shock (or a blow) to uncover...well, I won't go into it here.
But it's interesting to note that the STS skills of searching through darkened psyche-scapes can benefit the STO who's seeking deeper polarization. The difference is that one searches for coils of powerful emotional/physical/spiritual energy to fuel their own games while the latter does so in order to disentangle her/his own energy system in order to allow greater energy flow along the lines of trans-personal acceptance and surrender to Divinity, thus more closely approximating the pattern of the one Creatrix...bit by bit.
The good news is that it's all there within you, it'll remain there a long time waiting for you, and it ALL IS you...or the one known as "you." The Origin of All is Love, but Love has become complex, so to speak.

I was going to quit there, but I feel I ought to temper the above by adding that I know it's, oh, so easy to feel that one is being overwhelmingly challenged by darkness and distortion in one form or another. These are opportunities to maybe flee or fight or give up, etc. or opportunities to search your own God-given being for the light or the love. Very often when facing heavy challenges you won't find your allies in the customary places. These are opportunities to scan beyond what's become your customary lateral plane and discern it, perhaps, in a higher or deeper place.
