"The Body is very often the personification of this shadow of the ego. Sometimes it forms the skeleton in the cupboard," wrote Carl Jung, "and everybody naturally wants to get rid of such a thing." Through the symbolism of illness and physical symptoms, our bodies reflect the darkness and the light the shadow holds for us until we are ready to accept it. It is the shadow-face of our souls that holds the light and the darkness until we are strong enough to face and heal what we have previously denied or rejected about ourselves. Our bodies and their ailments are not our enemies, and neither are our shadows. The shadow reveal the negative ego patterns we had previously rejected or denied, through the messages of our illnesses, so we can recognize, forgive, and heal them. The shadow is the ally of our true self and the enemy of our negative egos.
Autorenporträt
Eleanor Limmer is a professional social worker, holistic counselor, and poet. Her practice of writing poetry is therapeutic to her because it expresses a meaningful connection with nature or an individual. She believes that poetry is the language of the soul, and therefore it heals. During the last twenty years she has written four books on holistic healing. The last book she wrote, The Body as Shadow, speaks of the Shadow as an aspect of our soul which holds both our light and darkness until we are able to accept and heal them.
