The shadow should not be equated with evil, only with life that has been suppressed.As such, the shadow is rich in potential. Becoming conscious of it makes us more fully human, more interesting. A shadowless person is extraordinarily bland and uninteresting. A willingness to allow our darkest impulses, as well as repressed creativity, to surface and be acknowledged is a step toward their integration. Negative shadow contents such as rage, lust, anger, etc., can be destructive when acted out unconsciously, but when consciously acknowledged and channeled they can provide new directions and new energy.In concrete terms, the shadow will out, whether in unconscious acts, projections onto others, depression or somatic illness. The shadow embodies all the life which has not been allowed expression. It embodies all lost sensitivity, which denied, breaks through in sentimentality. It represents our creativity, which abandoned, locks us into ennui and enervation. It embodies our spontaneity, which suppressed, routinizes and stultifies our lives. It represents a life force greater than our conscious personality has yet utilized, and its blocking leads to diminished vitality.~ James Hollis from The Middle Passage: From Misery to Meaning in Midlifeart | Maria Umiewskawww.instagram.com/umiewska/#midwivesofthesoul #mariaumieska #jamehollis #shadowwork i ...
