Shadow (psychology)

In Jungian psychology, the shadow or "shadow aspect" is a part of the unconscious mind consisting of repressed weaknesses, shortcomings, and instincts. It is one of the three most recognizable archetypes, the others being the anima and animus and the persona. "Everyone carries a shadow,
    " Jung wrote, "and the less it is embodied in the individual's conscious life, the blacker and denser it is."

1- It may be (in part) one's link to more primitive animal instincts,

2- which are superseded during early childhood by the conscious mind.

According to Jung, the shadow, in being instinctive and irrational, is prone to projection:
             turning a personal  inferiority into a perceived moral deficiency in someone else.
        Jung writes that if  these projections are unrecognized "The projection-making factor
                           (the Shadow archetype)
            then has a free hand and can realize its object>if it has one--
                          or bring about some other situation characteristic of its power."

3- These projections insulate and cripple individuals by forming an ever thicker fog of illusion
            between the ego   and the real world.

        From one perspective, 'the shadow...is roughly equivalent to the whole of the Freudian unconscious';

4- and Jung himself considered that 'the result of the Freudian method of elucidation is a minute elaboration
           of man's shadow-side unexampled in any previous age.
