The Greek furies (or Erinyes) hounded transgressors in order to gain retribution for those wronged. They chased Orestes after he murdered his mother and her husband in the House of Atreus cycle, and it took Athena's intervention to save him. I don't find the furies frightening; I find them helpful. The furies give no quarter and take no prisoners. If you invoke them to do harm because it suits your ego, they will turn on you and there is no escape. But their energy can also be harnessed as a positive catalyst in your life, especially if your life is in danger. Even if you do not need their help right now, honor the positive side of anger. Go to the furies with an open heart and a clear conscience. Because sometimes, you need anger in order to survive.
