In this episode of Mapping The Shadow, we explore Jung's concept of "circumambulation of the self" - the circular journey of psychological development that underpins Shadow Mapping.

This episode covers:

- Why Jung believed there is "no linear evolution" in psychic development

- How the circular journey from self to world and back creates transformation

- Why we keep encountering the same patterns in our lives

- The relationship between mandalas and the structure of consciousness

- How this circular pattern appears in the Shadow Map model

- Why growth involves both outward movement (Eros) and return (Thanatos)

This is part of an ongoing series exploring Shadow Mappingβ„’ and Shadow Dialectics - a comprehensive approach to understanding psychological dynamics and transformation.
