What you reject about yourself controls you without your knowledge

The shadow, a concept developed by Carl Jung, describes the unconscious part of the psyche containing everything we reject, suppress, or do not acknowledge about ourselves. It is not just the "bad": it also contains undeveloped talent, suppressed needs, and parts of us that never felt acceptable.

The more we suppress something, the more energy that suppression consumes, and the more it controls our behavior from the unconscious. Integrating the shadow does not mean "becoming bad" but making the unconscious conscious so we can choose from true freedom.

How to recognize your shadow?

What does this test measure?

The test evaluates 25 situations of projection, judgment, and reaction to identify which aspects of yourself you are most actively rejecting, which type of shadow (personal, collective, golden) is most predominant in you, and how it manifests in your relationships and decisions.

What will you get?

A map of your main projections and rejections, what hidden needs or potentials might lie there, and how to begin integrating them. In the PRO report, Block F crosses with sub-Block C1 (Role and Shadow) for a deeper analysis.

Which part of yourself are you rejecting?

25 questions. 10 minutes. Free and immediate result.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the shadow in psychology?
The unconscious part of the psyche that contains everything we reject or do not recognize about ourselves. It is not just the "bad": it also contains undeveloped potentials.
Does the shadow only contain negative parts?
No. It includes both what is considered 'bad' (aggression, envy) and what is 'too good' (talent, success, our own needs) that we do not allow ourselves to express.
How do you recognize the shadow?
The main sign is projection: what activates you intensely in others is usually a part of yourself. Also disproportionate reactions and rapid judgments.
How long does the test take?
25 questions, taking approximately 10 minutes.
Is integrating the shadow 'becoming bad'?
No. It is about making those parts conscious so they do not operate from the unconscious. Once conscious, you can choose what to do with them.
What is the relationship between shadow and identity?
They are two sides of the same coin. Defensive roles are what we show; the shadow is what we hide. Knowing both gives a complete picture of the psyche.
Is it dangerous to work with the shadow?
For most people, no. Guided self-exploration is safe and enriching. In cases of severe trauma or high psychological vulnerability, it is recommended to do so with professional guidance.
