an aggressive or anti-social side to your personality Explanation: The aspect of your personality that you don't particularly want others to see. In Jungian psychology the shadow or dark side of the personality is the instinctive, irrational and often unknown side of the personaltiy. "When we talk about having a “dark side,” we’re generally calling attention to our most aggressive, or lustful, anti-social instincts. Or the mean-spirited, bloodthirsty belligerence presumably lurking deep within us. Or our acting out impulses that would disrupt others’ lives—if not outright decimate them. Rape; mutilation; murder; unconscionable acts of thievery, betrayal, treachery, sadism, masochism; unbounded greed; incest; and so on. But what I’d like to suggest here is that perhaps your darkest fantasies shouldn’t be understood as all that demonic. Or at least that they can be much more compassionately appreciated as audacious, disinhibited, primitive, grandiose, or hedonistic—as opposed to, say, degrading, disgraceful, or nefarious." https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/evolution-the-self/2014... |
