Shadow side of personality

The shadow is the prototype of the light side of the personality, which a person cherishes and cherishes. The dark side of personality is often not recognized. Repression, rationalization, projection are protective mechanisms that help to preserve one's bright image. However, the unmanifested aspects of the personality acquire shadow structures in the form of uncontrolled dreams, sudden symptoms, internal and external conflicts, repetitive situations. All these repressed configurations provide the personality with important coded information about itself and about its way of building life. You can persistently and carefully be blind, deaf and insensitive to your own shadow, but sooner or later the time will come to rethink your life. After all, quantity tends to accumulate and turn into quality, demonstrating an obvious reality. Split-off parts of the personality require internal integration.
