Identifying the dark forces.
Throughout Human history there has been awareness of the dark forces. Satan, The Dark Side, Evil, Negativity etc. I have been struggling with these forces for what has probably been many life times. A few weeks ago it dawned upon me what the correct classification of these forces is.
Imagine that death is some kind of force or being. Now imagine that death can be in various states. I imagined that death could love much like a person can love. Conversely it can also hate. It is death's hate which accounts for much of Evil's power.
What leads death to hate? It is the conditions upon earth and general wear and tear which causes death to hate. Accidents and killing and endless work and building and ageing and war. Death is not naturally suitable for modern life. Huge cities full of traffic and concrete will turn death sour.
Profane sex and bad relationships will turn death into hate too. I have found that encouraging my own death force to love has helped me enormously. I have pushed away death's hatred and replaced it with death's love. I feel much better.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

Fear of death of our body, then our soul identity, an instinct of self-preservation, it remains with us as a subtle layer of ego, separating us from God, even after we see Him face to face! This is on account of attention oscillation, wherein we slump into stupor.
At different coordinates of our ‘ascension’, as we get nearer to God, with each breath, in each moment, as our reflex response, as our default fulcrum, then fear recedes. But does it end? Perhaps not as we discover, when the ‘degree of difficulty’ increases. We are tested again and again and again.
To really know the dark, here is a poem for your consumption -
Baphomet
If you
would know
the dark
stark fear
evil
paling
before
this form
fearsome
goat head
both male
female
flaming
serpent
ruling
darkness
grants boons
power
on those
who pray
to it
and yet
feral
lustful
so will
consume
you whole
then spit
you back
tethered
pulled back
again
until
nothing
soulful
remains

Edit: Having said that, be assured that God’s light dispels all darkness.

When my Mother was about to die, she claimed to me that she had some realistic, true to life dreams. She could not wait to go to sleep so as to see what would 'happen next'.

I feel somewhat left out here: Having been in this world now for more than 8 decades I have never been aware of any dark forces.
Are they yet to come or have I just been lucky?

Dark forces are everywhere, look at our current political situations. Look back to World War 2...
I know, no political dialog permitted, so I regress...
Dark forces are all around us, and within you... have you ever studied the 7 deadly sins?
2.1 Lust
2.2 Gluttony
2.3 Greed
2.4 Sloth
2.5 Wrath
2.6 Envy
2.7 Pride
What makes them deadly is that they invade the heart. And our political systems... Lol.
Can you see any of this in you? Your country?
If you do repent and know that God will forgive you, and will help you through your days of darkness.
Our world has massive issues... as we can see.
Spiritual awareness is all about attaining this wisdom.. it's no joke.
Jesus wept at the tomb of Lazarus, death will be overcome, one day.
Hence the resurrection of Christos...
I repent of my sins.
Now, go sin no more, God knows how hard it is. Don't give up. Rest knowing, God is all wise and full of Holy Wisdom..
