Carl Jung referred to the entirety of the unconscious as the shadow self and believed that it is the store of everything one is not fully aware of during waking life. It represents aspects of the personality that one chooses to repress or ignore due to shame or embarrassment, thus allowing one to conveniently function in society.
Only when one has learned to recognise, confront and integrate aspects of the hidden shadow twin may one be truly in control of their behaviour, preventing unconscious material from ever erupting uninvited into conscious life.
