We will cover St Ignatius of Loyola's rules for the discernment of spirits, also called the first week rules of the spiritual exercises. These rules provide a path to a deeper reflection on inner movements in the spiritual life. They cover the experience of spiritual consolation and desolation, particularly how to actively overcome the tactics of the enemy including desolation. They help one to become more consistent in the spiritual life and contribute to a path of sustained growth.
