🎭 Sexual Shadows 🎭
The journey to s*xual liberation takes us from shame to self acceptance. Sometimes our past experiences can cause us to engage in s*x from a place of unworthiness thus planting the seeds for our s*xual fantasies. Carl Jung defines the Shadow as our disowned self: the aspects that we must hide to be accepted. In fact, Jung believed s*xuality served as a primary domain where the shadow reveals itself; this is because s*xual expression is so often subject to shame, repression, and cultural conditioning. What often manifests in our fantasies and desires are our needs: our need for power, our desire for surrender, our longing for authentic connection, our capacity for wildness or tenderness.
🌚So the next time you find yourself getting lost in a spicy daydream ask yourself: what natural human need does this show me?
