Unconscious Primal Anger

6 posts in this topic

I don't know if any of you guys have experienced this, but it seems like the more conscious you become, the more aware you start to become of these unconscious primal impulses. Maybe it is just my past karma or something, but I keep having these feelings of rage where I want to fight, scratch, rip, and tear things apart Almost like I am a tiger. I have been struggling with these feelings for quite a while now and I am not sure what i am supposed to do with these emotions. Either it must be a really deep trauma or there is something else going on. Releasing them seems destructive and can be potentially harmful, but I also think conversely that it is harmful to keep them running in the background of my subconscious mind.

Consider the possibility that you are pushing yourself too hard and not respecting your own boundaries.
As random as it may sound, Shrek is an awesome character to study if you want to learn more about that.

What if it’s more that those aggressive urges have been laying dormant since becoming an adult, but not integrated into adult life, so now with your awakening, this has unlocked past habits and tendencies of repression of these primal urges, essentially resetting your behaviour patterns, leaving you to choose what is appropriate and what is not. You have essentially wiped your slate clean and been given a fresh start, but now with the knowledge of an adult plus the awareness of awakening, now choose wisely your new course.

if the urges need to be expressed, why not find some positive way to do so, like a contact sport or self defence?

I think those are classic symptoms of your shadow. One of the forum users here has some great videos about it. Check these out, great stuff:
