My lifelong nemesis was anger. It very seldomly arises now, and if it does, it's a case of slowing down enough to consider how I might respond rather than react, using it as a tool. Whereas in the past, I quite enjoyed the expression as a means to feel my own power. I asked for help with this and seem to have integrated and reconciled it's opposite. I notice I've mostly overcome it, but it took a while.

For me, when the shadow bubbles up from the depths of the soul it can feel very primal and intense, dangerous even, intimate always, but this is the antithesis of the ego and all it's antics, it is the real. Immersing with this aspect is a gift in itself, it is truly transformational.
