Usually repressed natural drives, particularly sexual feeling – one can express physical sex, yet still repress sexual longing and connected emotions of tenderness. It is what is unlived in us – ‘devil’ is ‘lived’ spelt backwards. Any code of conduct, whether accepted from parents or peers, leaves aspects of our total self unlived. The struggle with paternal authority or power within oneself is often represented as the devil. If we change our code of conduct, we may meet the devil because we release the previously unlived area of self. As Pan: the same, except that Pan represents losing oneself to the natural urges.
