Daniel 10:13 · World English Bible
But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; but, behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me because I remained there with the kings of Persia.
The resistance holds for a fixed span because creation itself runs on 2 poles, and the opposite charge of energy must have its hour before the higher current can arrive. The prince of Persia is that contrary polarity, the counter-force built into things, standing against the inward messenger not out of evil but because polarity is the law by which anything gets made.

ESOTERIC
The resistance holds for a fixed span because creation itself runs on 2 poles, and the opposite charge of energy must have its hour before the higher current can arrive. The prince of Persia is that contrary polarity, the counter-force built into things, standing against the inward messenger not out of evil but because polarity is the law by which anything gets made. Then the el power within stirs, the God-force that turns the mind back toward its own source, and the balance shifts.
The whole encounter is inner, a psychic meeting projected onto princes and kingdoms. The delay was never a war in the sky, only the time an opposing charge must run before the homeward force breaks through.
Prince of Persia: the opposite pole of energy, the counter-charge that creation requires Michael: the el power within, the God-force that turns the mind back toward its source
Esoteric lens
What have I been calling an enemy when it was really the other pole holding the thing in place?
Things come into being only against their opposites. Nothing can rise without something pushing back, so the resistance you meet is part of how the thing gets made.
The play of the world runs on paired forces that rise and fall in turn. The one who watches from the center lets them have their hour and is not dragged under by either.
What stands in the way becomes the way. The obstacle is not an interruption of the work, it is the material the work is made from.
