Casting our shadows onto other individuals and groups leads to significant issues. These issues include a fertile breeding ground for bigotry, hatred, and a general lack of empathy.

Often times, we project aspects of our inner nature onto others. We refuse to accept and acknowledge these aspects. This happens when we see people exhibiting the same negative traits.

Look no further than our current political and social climate here in America. You will witness hyper-partisan mudslinging. There is also crude behavior towards others holding different positions and beliefs.

We must examine our own inner thoughts and emotions. This is imperative to identify the triggering traits we cast upon our neighbors.

Only then can we as individuals make peace with our dark side. We can positively project the peace we desire onto our surrounding environment.
