I wrote the last article especially to make you a presentation of this type of the archetype of the shadow. I won’t go into detail about it here, I’ll speak about it’s relationship with self esteem. This archetype it’s the opposite of what Jung says about the shadow. It mirrors in others the positive traits of character we don’t see in ourselves.
