Conscious Effort… to be a force to reckon with. [rhetoric] Living in the moment and tomorrow as fire fuels my chariot levitating humility to admit faults. This is less than a task. To see the journey through clear lens is beneficial to the masses but unfortunately, not the case. I speak from the shadow lens in conjunction with the animus.
Jung argues, “The shadow is an archetype that consists of the sex and life instincts. The shadow exists as part of the unconscious mind and is composed of repressed ideas, weaknesses, desires, instincts and shortcomings. This archetype is often described as the darker side of the psyche, representing wildness, chaos and the unknown. These latent dispositions are present in all of us, Jung believed, although people sometimes deny this element of their own psyche and instead project it onto others.

“The animus is a feminine image in the female psyche and the animas is a female image in the male psyche. The anima/animus represents the "true self" rather than the image we present to others and serves as the primary source of communication with the collective unconscious.”

True self is what I strive toward; an obsession. Armed with shovel and rope, I dig to hike. Love is my shield; nevertheless hate my swordsmen in this matter. As the true self surfaces so does adjusting of vision. Sustenance is to balance as berries are to health.
The combination of the anima and animus is known as the syzygy, or the divine couple. The syzygy represents completion, unification and wholeness. This is the level I presently AIM.
