I Met Myself in the Dark Indoor wall tapestry

🌑 I Met Myself in the Dark: Shadow Work as Sacred Practice

This tapestry honors the most courageous spiritual work: facing what you've hidden, even from yourself.

🌑 What is Shadow Work?:
Carl Jung taught that the "shadow" is the part of yourself you've rejected, denied, or hidden. It's not evil — it's unintegrated. Shadow work is the practice of meeting those rejected parts with compassion, bringing them into the light, and reclaiming the power you've locked away in darkness.

⚡ Energetic Properties:
• Integration: Wholeness comes from embracing all parts of yourself
• Courage: Facing the shadow is the bravest spiritual act
• Power Reclamation: What you reject, you give power over you
• Authenticity: You can't be whole while hiding parts of yourself

🔮 The Journey:
"I met myself in the dark" — this is the moment of recognition. Not the monster you feared, but yourself, waiting to be seen. The shadow isn't your enemy. It's the part of you that's been waiting in the dark, hoping you'd finally turn around and look.

🌙 Shadow Work Practices:
• Journaling: Write to the parts of yourself you've rejected
• Mirror Work: Look yourself in the eyes and speak truth
• Dream Analysis: Your shadow speaks loudest in dreams
• Projection Work: What you hate in others is often your shadow
• Meditation: Sit with uncomfortable feelings without running

🌑 How to Use:
1. Hang in your private space where you do inner work
2. Let it remind you that darkness is not the enemy
3. Use as a backdrop for shadow work journaling or meditation
4. Honor the courage it takes to meet yourself fully
5. Remember: the goal isn't to eliminate the shadow, but to integrate it
