“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life, and you will call it fate.”  ~ Probably not Carl Jung

Jung most likely never said this, despite the frequent attribution for this quote. Nonetheless, it’s a good tagline for his insights.

Deep in the hidden corners of our minds lies a part of ourselves we’d prefer not to acknowledge – what Jung called the shadow. Our repressed emotions, fears, and storylines that remain unaddressed build up in our unconscious mind.

From time to time, the shadow rises up and demands attention, driven by our unfulfilled needs. It can lead us to make some really bad decisions. 

To prevent the shadow from causing havoc in our lives and harm to others, we need to bring it to light. We can integrate aspects of the shadow into our conscious mind, using its energy for growth and attaining wholeness.
