In this video I review the concept of the psychological shadow, not only as a useful construct for understanding our individual psyches, but also of our collectives, the social groups we identify with. Along the way, we’ll consider the dynamic interplay between the shadow and the persona, the trouble it can generate for us and others, and the more basic issues underlying those dynamics. Finally, we’ll consider how the inner work of esoteric paths can be helpful with these matters. Click on the image below to open the video in my YouTube channel.
