The shadow (Middle English: schadowe, from Indo-European: *(s)ḱeh₃-) as a sensual phenomenon is the dark space behind an object illuminated by a light source, which appears projected onto a surface as a two-dimensional image of the object. However, in Egyptian mythology and later by the Greeks, the soul of the dead, the psychically visible form of the dead, were also perceived as shadows, since at that time clairvoyance, which was originally widespread among mankind, had already almost died out. In Carl Gustav Jung's analytical psychology, the shadow is an archetype that stands for the negative qualities of the personality that have been repressed into the subconscious.
