— Dr. Carl Gustav Jung, The Undiscovered Self, paragraph 590, pg 137


The archetype of the Shadow comes to us all — in unexplained moods, in forgetfulness, in slips of the tongue, challenging relationships or situations that repeat, etc. etc. but often the symbols will also come in poetry, essays, and art coming up from the unconscious personally and what we hear or see out in the collective. There are movies, novels and musical lyrics that portray the Shadow side of life. We all have real life experiences of seeing our Shadow. If you have a favorite poem, essay, piece of art or comment or description on a particular movie that you would like to submit for this page, please send to: rebeca@shadowdance.com and please put the word SHADOW in the title so that it won't go into junk mail.
