For me, it's like, while we're in these bodies that hold our spirits, there's some need for restraint, for structure, for us to operate in.



Separation from the One, even if it is only a pretend one, is very difficult, yet an important in the expansion process.
During our movement through the animal kingdom we have, or should I say spirits have a direct connection to the oversoul. As one moves from 2D into 3D from animal to human, the link brakes.
Actually It does not brake it is veiled.  This might give an indication why we, for a long time have this need for structure, sens of belonging.
How much do YOU still need this structure? A true indicator where you are on your way to find your link to your Self.
Many remove themselves from all structures, by moving it monasteries, into the mountains,  in an attempt to find their elusive link.
This is only one way of doing it. The Kabbalah used to be an  effective tool. 
But interesting that you touch on this subject, it is this time, where all or most of those structures have to go, or at least be weakened.
This is why we see young people run wild, dictatorships fall, the hidden comes to the surface.
Still some way to go.
