Shadow (psychology)
TopicHeard in 1 episode across 1 show since Jul 2026
In analytical psychology, the shadow is an unconscious aspect of the personality that does not correspond with the ego ideal, leading the ego to resist and project it. Developed by Carl Jung, it represents the repressed, hidden, or instinctual parts of the psyche that an individual rejects or remains unaware of. Integrating the shadow is considered a crucial step in the process of individuation and personal growth.
