Narcissus
Asteroid Number 37117
Discovered 2000 Nov. 1 by W. K. Y. Yeung at the Desert Beaver Observatory.
In Greek mythology Narcissus was a hero from the territory of Thespiae in Boeotia who was renowned for his beauty. In the various stories, he became obsessed with his own reflection in a pool and, for one reason or another, died as a result.
Narcissus is the personification/embodiment of Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Narcissistic Personality Disorder ("NPD") and Borderline Personality Disorder ("BPD") are both Cluster B Personality Disorders where NPD is the masculine manifestation and BPD is the feminine manifestation. The difference is NPD is a result of selfishness and an exaggerated sense of self importance and BPD is a result of complex (repeated) traumatic events. Both of these disorders are episodic.
The DSM-5 instructs that to qualify as a Narcissist (an individual with NPD) one must have atleast five (5) of the following nine (9) symptoms:
A grandiose sense of self-importance;
A preoccupation with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love;
A belief that he or she is special and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people or institutions;
A need for excessive admiration;
A sense of entitlement;
Interpersonally exploitive behavior;
A lack of empathy;
Envy of others or a belief that others are envious of him or her (this one is a sin, probably the most important from the list.);
A demonstration of arrogant and haughty behaviors or attitudes.
Quite frankly, in the Qur'an Satan is described as arrogant.

THIS ONE ISN'T AS FUN. YOU KNOW, A FEMALE CAT DOESN'T EXPERIENCE PLEASURE - SHE NEEDS TO GET FIXED. SHE CAN GET PREGNANT BY MULTIPLE ONES OF THESE AT THE SAME TIME. THESE ARE ALL MALE CATS THAT IN THEORY "RAPE" (MEANING TAKE THE POWER OF) THE FEMALE CAT:
To qualify as a Borderline the DSM-5 says one must suffer from at least five (5) of these nine (9) symptoms:
Chronic feelings of emptiness
Emotional instability in reaction to day-to-day events (e.g., intense episodic sadness, irritability, or anxiety usually lasting a few hours and only rarely more than a few days);
Frantic efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment;
Identity disturbance with markedly or persistently unstable self-image or sense of self;
Impulsive behavior in at least two areas that are potentially self-damaging (e.g., spending, sex, substance abuse, reckless driving, binge eating);
Inappropriate, intense anger or difficulty controlling anger (e.g., frequent displays of temper, constant anger, recurrent physical fights);
A pattern of unstable and intense interpersonal relationships characterized by extremes between idealization and devaluation (also known as "splitting");
Recurrent suicidal behavior, gestures, threats, or self-harming behavior;
Transient, stress-related paranoid ideation or severe dissociative symptoms;
IF YOU'RE HAVING DIFFICULTIES WITH THESE, THAT MEANS IT'S ABOUT TIME TO GET YOUR CAT FIXED. COSTS $20.00 TO GET YOUR FEMALE CAT FIXED. AT LEAST IN CLEVELAND THAT'S THE DEAL, YOU HAVE TO BE RESIDENT OF CLEVELAND AND ON SOME TYPE OF PUBLIC ASSISTANCE. THANK GOD FOR THE APL! PERVERSION WOULD HAVE CONTINUED TO ABUSE THESE CATS AND ARGUE THAT THEY'RE WHAT'S HER NAME. WHAT A FUCKING SHAME. ONLY THOSE BORN IN JULY CAN JUDGE ME, MOTHERFUCKER!
"YOU'RE NOT SPRAYING IT EVERYWHERE LIKE A REAL SETH."

QUITE FRANKLY, A MALE DOG... NO, NO, AN UNNEUTERED MALE CAT IS JUST A NEGATIVELY ASPECTED AS A UNSPAYED FEMALE CAT. A MALE CAT WHEN YOU DON'T NEUTER THEM, AT SOME POINT LEARNS HOW TO SPRAY WHAT HE DETERMINES AS HIS TERRITORY. AND EVEN IF YOU GET HIM FIXED, HE MAY STILL DO THAT IF HE HAS ALREADY LEARNED. I'M GLAD AND GRATEFUL THAT I GOT MY TWO MALE CATS FIXED IN TIME FOR WINTER.
BPD individuals have the opportunity to heal through Dialectical Behavior Therapy. That’s the best option. NPD individuals don't seem to suffer as much as BPD and it seems to be a choice among them to continue their behavior, rarely is it a result of trauma.
Also, there is the ever famous Narrcistic-Empath paradigm
I made the sigil for Narcissus.
In astrology, Narcissus seems to be linked with selfishness. Whereas greed seems to be a sin, selfishness is not exactly so.
So the Narcissus flower is a DAFFODIL.
And that's all I know.
