How much influence can one individual have in engaging their personal shadow, right?

Think about this way, right?

Dr. Carl Jung, his journey started with engaging his own shadow essentially, bringing those elements into his conscious view.

Just think about the insane rippling effect that procedure that experience had on the rest of

the world.

Just him engaged, like if he was just a psychologist, he wrote some substantial papers and whatnot,

how different his path would have gone versus he had this breakdown

1913 and he starts engaging you know his inner depths and has these visionary

experiences and starts to write everything down and analyze it and starts to understand that, you know, this is the experience everybody shares and what kind of crazy rippling effect that had that starts with that one seed idea of somebody engaging with their own inner

depths and then revealing it out into the world.

Welcome back to the transmission, my friends. I remember back before I integrated my shadow I was so

reactive, so low vibration, I'm joking. I really wish I didn't have to say that but inevitably I know there's going to be some small

percentage of people whose sarcasm antennae don't work.

On that note I feel like the Shadow has a way of sneaking up and bitch slapping people

especially hard who think they've rid themselves of it. I don't even think that this dark territory of the unconscious that Carl Jung called the Shadow

can ever be fully known, can ever be fully integrated.

But clearly it's hugely important to have some level of shadow

fluency to do some degree of shadow work.

Because if we remain just completely oblivious to it,

we will, to paraphrase Young, just be led around by the Shadow to a point where we just think it's fate,

we just think that it's the world happening to us, that it's the way things have to be.

But the Shadow definitely goes far beyond our individual psyches. It is at work out in the world at large as we riff on in this mind melt.
