I really hate to post something like this on an account called uke-zone, but there's not much choice. I'm going to be homeless in a month.

For the past 2 years, I’ve been stuck in a toxic job because I took the first one I could get without reliable transport. I’ve been working as a web admin, making $14,400 a year. My rent is $12,360 a year, not including bills. I scraped by, constantly stressed, and exhausted. I lived alone after leaving an abusive family environment, so I just kept going.

Four days ago I was given a termination notice—the day after I refused to violate FCC guidelines. They wanted me to add a static list of customers to an email list, without allowing them to unsubscribe, and I couldn’t let myself be complicit or get hit with a $5,000 fine.

No savings, no support system, and no cushion. I won't survive the next month if I'm evicted. There is just straight up nowhere to go.

If you’re able to help me keep a roof over my head while I continue the job search, please drop a $20 or the most that won't hurt here: paypal.me/Ymukhopadhyay

In Texas, unemployment takes at least 4 weeks, assuming no disputes, and with my employer that's not happening. Rent is due. I’d be eligible for $143 a week, which... isn’t even close to enough to keep a roof over my head or eat. I couldn’t pay one month of rent if I tried. I'm looking down the barrel of being homeless again, and would frankly rather be dead.

If you have any need for a web developer, designer, or multimedia content specialist, I'd appreciate any support there as well, whether through projects or referrals.

I need to survive the next 30 days to not be constantly on the verge of losing everything. Going back to living paycheck-to-paycheck with no security and no safety net isn't an option. I was terrified one mistake or one bad turn could leave me with nothing until it did.

If you can’t offer help, I understand. But if you can, I'm begging in random tags on the Internet because I don’t want to be homeless again.

GoFundMe, if PayPal isn't an option

Thanks for reading this. ❤️

My darling, I love everything that is not mine, you for example.

- Balance varela

I wish you were still just a human to me, I don't want to look at you and see poetry.

- unknown

I've been searching for you, far behind my eyelids, you never left my mind, you're caged behind my ribs.

quote from Pan's Flute

But how do you say goodbye when your heart still wants to hold on?

The Science of the Subconscious

An in-depth overview of Carl Jung’s “Shadow Self”

"Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes." -Carl Jung

Introduction

Carl Jung, a renowned Swiss analytical psychiatrist, developed and introduced the concept of our “Shadow Self,” which provides us the captivating and intriguing idea that there are two aspects of our selves: The conscious side and the subconscious side; the latter which is normally hidden and only may be acknowledged or accessed via the use of specific forms of therapy. He also had advanced the concept of introvert and extravert personalities as well as personality archetypes (Biography, 2023).

Carl Jung also helped develop analytical psychology, commonly termed as “Jungian Psychology” or alternatively, “Jungian Therapy.” It is the study of a comprehensive, analytical form of therapy to distinguish the conscious mind from the subconscious mind, with the objective to gain an immense understanding of the patient’s “real” self, rather than the perception of self they display to the world around them (Psychology Today, 2022).

Practicing Jungian Psychology

The practice of Jungian Therapy is used for a broad range of mental health conditions, such as depression, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, or it may be used generally to determine an individual's purpose and their life direction. There are some widely accepted methods to identify the conscious and subconscious mind, including dream analysis, performing arts therapy, and by word association (Psychology Today, 2022).

At its fundamental level in understanding the purpose of Jungian Psychology, it is essentially used as a form of psychotherapy (or talk therapy,) and can be used as a sole substitute for other therapy or supplemented with conventional forms of therapy.

There are a set of criteria needed to become a practitioner, which includes the completion of two programs, taught concurrently, called “The Jungian Psychotherapy Program and the Jungian Studies Program,” and have licensure as a mental health professional (The C.G. Jung Institute of Chicago, 2025).

The Jungian Archetypes

There are twelve Jungian archetypes when psychologically assessed and each archetype provides a deeper comprehension of the individual’s subconscious mind. An archetype, in this context, is defined as a particular mental view that is inherited from the late human ancestors, that shapes our emotional patterns, thought processes, and our behaviors (Copley, 2025).

Of the twelve archetypes, there are four core archetypes:

The Self

An egoless persona of the individual, serving as a luminescent light to light the path for discovering the realization of self and personal transformation.

The Persona

Serves as the aspect of ourselves that we may “mask” or conceal from others, and instead use other behaviors only known of superficially to function in the outside world.

The Shadow

Hidden within the human psyche are a system of behavioral and personality traits that are normally not seen or accessed regularly, and therefore often repressed deeply within our subconscious that it may become difficult to expose.

The Anima/Animus

The equivalent of what is deemed as “twin flames” in mysticism, or what is considered as our masculine and feminine selves. Understanding the anima/animus may transcend societal and social expectations, discovering more profound traits for self-improvement and navigating through life.

The Anima refers to the feminine parts of a man’s personality whereas the Animus refers to the masculine parts of a woman’s personality (Centre of Applied Jungian Studies, 2023).

To uncover your individual Jungian Archetype can also be achieved by taking assessments, many of which can be found online. Although you can find tests to take for free, bear in mind these may not be as accurate as a paid assessment, or a result given by a Jungian practitioner (Copley, 2025). There are a few different options when taking a Jungian Archetype test, which can either be available online or be given by a practitioner.

The Jungian “Shadow” Archetype

The Shadow archetype, that is introduced by Carl Jung, captures the aspects of ourselves that we often reject, resent, or perhaps are not recognized. The Shadow Self has traits about us that are consciously frowned upon, but nonetheless still can be found within our subconscious mind. Our Shadow Self contrasts with our other archetype, The Persona, which can be easily found within our conscious mind (McLeod, 2024).

Our Shadow Self manifests when we project our rejected traits onto yourselves, which serves as a mirror of the aspects of ourselves that we oppose of. To acknowledge, engage, and address our Shadow Self can present as a major challenge, but can be possible with an adequate amount of time practicing Shadow Work, and/or working with a Jungian Therapist (Psychology Today, 2022).

This interplay of the Persona and the Shadow has been previously explored in literature, and a more famously known one is, “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,” as it highlights the character’s dual natures, hence providing an illustration of Carl Jung’s theory (McLeod, 2024).

Carl Jung’s Psychology Test resonate with another well-known personality assessment, called the “Myers-Briggs Indicator” test, which categorizes people into 16 personality types, with each type represented by four letters (Simkus, 2024).

There are four dichotomies, or core categories in this assessment:

Extraversion (E) or Introversion (I)

Sensing (S) or Intuition (N)

Thinking (T) or Feeling (F)

Judging (J) or Perceiving (P)

This assessment can also be found online, with a free version and a paid version. Just like the Jungian Test, the free test results can be inaccurate or use outdated information and therefore should not be solely relied upon if desiring the most objective result based on the most recent credible sources.

You can take the Myers-Briggs test online, which has a free version and a paid version available, on 16Personalities.com. Alternatively, you can access a free Jungian Personality Type assessment at ‘Open Psycho Metrics.’

Summary of Carl Jung’s “Shadow Self”

Carl Jung’s theory of Personality Archetypes offers a profound lens through which we can understand human behavior and the unconscious mind. Among the archetypes, “Shadow" plays a pivotal role. The Shadow represents the repressed or hidden aspects of our psyche—traits, desires, and impulses that society or personal ideals deem unacceptable. Often lurking in the unconscious, the Shadow can influence behavior in subtle and surprising ways, manifesting as fears, projections, or even unacknowledged talents.

Confronting the Shadow is essential for self-awareness and personal growth. Jung believed that integrating the Shadow into our conscious mind leads to individuation, a process of becoming whole and balanced. By acknowledging and embracing our Shadow, we can transcend inner conflicts and unlock deeper layers of authenticity.

In closing, the Shadow reminds us that self-discovery is not just about celebrating our light but also understanding and harmonizing with our inner darkness. It is through this integration that we achieve a fuller sense of self.

Integrating the Shadow Self

Practice Self-Reflection: Set aside time for introspection, journaling, or meditation. Reflect on your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, especially those that trigger discomfort or defensive reactions.

Observe Your Projections: Pay attention to traits or behaviors you strongly dislike in others. These reactions can often reveal aspects of your own Shadow that you may be unconsciously avoiding.

Embrace Vulnerability: Acknowledge and accept your fears, flaws, and insecurities without judgment. This allows you to face your Shadow with compassion rather than resistance.

Engage in Creative Expression: Art, music, writing, or other creative outlets can provide a safe space to explore and express the hidden parts of your psyche.

Seek Feedback: Trusted friends, family, or mentors can offer insights into blind spots in your personality. Their perspectives may help you see traits you might overlook in yourself.

Work with a Professional: Therapists or counselors trained in Jungian psychology can guide you through Shadow work and help you uncover deeper layers of your unconscious.

Practice Mindfulness: Develop the habit of observing your thoughts and emotions without judgment. Mindfulness creates space for deeper awareness and helps you stay present as you explore your Shadow.

Cultivate Curiosity: Approach your Shadow with curiosity rather than fear. Ask yourself what lessons it holds and how it might contribute to your growth.

As you bring your Shadow into the light, you may find hidden strengths, creative energy, and a greater sense of wholeness. Which of these methods resonates with you the most?

I'M BACK

...but Tumblr is still blocked on residential internet and I don't want to risk getting flagged by the spam filter again for using VPN, so let's hope reporting my ISP to our National Telecommunication Agency does something. At least this blog isn't restricted anymore; thanks for those who interacted with my test posts (you did help) and T&S team for fixing the issue! ✨

I'll be doing artistic and scientific collaborations at Oceanview in the meantime. See ya around. 🍹

i am the parts you are afraid to face; the light your mother snuffed out, sneered at, the favor bestowed on your brother when you asked why, i am the emotion you couldn’t temper in time, the one you’ve let out, rampant, wild and free. i am your daughter, it is no wonder i see.

i am the addiction you’ve taken cover under, the way it feels to hide and not feel safe, the echo that said not good enough on blast. let’s talk about the blast, let’s talk about the cover. i just need you to find your voice first. i am your daughter, it is no wonder i can’t hear you.

i am the parts of which make a whole. only it’s made a hole.  gaps, maps, malady. my mother will never see what i do. my father will never say what’s needed.

and i’m empty, empty, empty. a sponge soaking up anything, wringing it out when i’m done, rinse, repeat, repeat - i’m still unclean. i still have your parents talking to my demons.

generational. generating what?  i am your daughter; i am the parts. i just don’t know how to be.

— generational repeat, j.f.
