SHADOWS





Richard (of RBB) in a recent post   HERE showed a photo of his shadow. It looked like he was wearing riding trousers and riding boots like Mussolini used to wear.





From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"In Jungian psychology, the "shadow", "Id", or "shadow aspect/archetype" may refer to an   unconscious aspect of the personality which the conscious ego does not identify in itself, or the entirety of the unconscious, i.e., everything of which a person is not fully conscious. In short, the shadow is the "dark side".

The shadow may appear in dreams and visions in various forms and typically 'appears as a person of the same sex as that of the dreamer'. The shadow's appearance and role depend greatly on the living experience of the individual because much of the shadow develops in the individual's mind rather than simply being inherited in the collective unconscious. Nevertheless, some Jungians maintain that The shadow contains, besides the personal shadow, the shadow of society ... fed by the neglected and repressed collective values'."
Got that?

Good - moving on.

Shadows can be funny (as we saw with Richard (of RBB)'s one. Here are three examples:

I didn't say I don't write them too. I call it style. Though Robert could be wrong.

I do not accept the idea of collective values or consciousness. Though I could be wrong.
