“Anyone who perceives his shadow and his light simultaneously sees himself from two sides and thus gets in the middle.” -Carl Jung
Being in the middle means embracing both aspects of the self.
Anyone who has sat with a pencil and paper and tried to draw what was in front of them knows that without shadows we wouldn’t be able to see form. The shadows help define the light and the light source. Something for me to think about.
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” – Carl Jung
