The mirror self / shadow has been on my mind a lot lately, too. Have you read Jung’s “The Undiscovered Self”? It’s my current obsession. https://a.co/d/0zn5QZX
I have not read it! But thank you for sharing it. I recently did "parts work" or voice dialogue with a Jungian therapist and I realized that I had assumed my shadow work involved getting to know repressed, hidden aspects of me, but I was wrong. My shadow work also involves differentiating and separating from sub personalities that I over identify with — a part of me that is over-expressed not repressed. In my case, what I call my "angel" or "good girl" that acts a protector and is kind of controlling and judgemental.

That’s a powerful insight! I have the version with part 2: symbols and interpretation of dreams — which I think you might enjoy 😀
I will get myself a copy for sure! Thanks Gabe <3
