Finding the Sacredness in the Healing of Your Shadow
By Joy Brugh
Fall is upon us and that traditionally spooky, scary holiday – Halloween is almost here. While it may seem that we only bring out those scary monsters and costumes once a year to play, the truth is each of us is always haunted by our own inner demons and scary monsters. The renowned Swiss psychologist Carl Jung called this place the “shadow self.” These are the aspects of our selves that stalk us, lurk hidden in the shadows but pervasively and stealthily influence and impact our lives every day, often times wreaking havoc and creating chaos.
In your journey to wholeness and healing, it is important to explore the dark and hidden crevices of inner selves – your shadow self. In the shadow you will find the un-owned parts of your personality — the part of you that stays unknown, unexamined, and out of the light of your conscious awareness. We often deny or suppress these parts of ourselves because it makes us uncomfortable or afraid. Whatever doesn’t fit your image of your ideal self, or what you have been told is who you are becomes your shadow. The shadow is all of our disowned, despised and repressed traits and parts of our selves.
Your shadow is the person you would rather not be!
Rather than run from your shadow it is important to turn around and face these darker parts that stalk you and keep you stuck in unhealthy patterns and relationships. The shadow has a sacred purpose in your life and can help you transform. Carl Jung refers to the shadow as “our sparring partner”, the opponent who exposes our flaws and sharpens our skills. It takes a great amount of energy to “fight” with our shadows and even more energy to repress it.
