Hi Gregg,

Nice blog!

As I read it, I think of how a Jungian 4-part model of the psyche works, as well:

Persona
Ego
Shadow
Anima/Animus

I think your tripartite model corresponds well with this:

Public Self  = Persona (which you explicitly stated)
Private Self = Ego (which I think you at least implied)                               
Experiential Self = Shadow + Anima/Animus

I think you implied the Shadow part of the Experiential Self with your statement, "...some times the dark parts of our selves 'leak out' in ways we are not aware of."

So the Public Self/Persona negotiates the tension between the Private Self/Ego and the social context, (there's some "splitting off" there).

But the Private Self/Ego negotiates the tension between Public Self/Persona and the Shadow (part of the Experiential Self), and the Shadow gets projected onto others via the Public Self / Persona: "...[Kathy]  has now 'split off' her feelings and projected them into the environment".

The Private Self / Ego is "split off" from the Anima/Animus (the other part of the Experiential Self), And the Shadow "blocks the two", thus it must be dealt with in order to stop projecting onto others and thus begin the process of reintegrating the two.

I would also add that the Persona and Ego are conscious, and the Shadow and Anima/Animus are unconscious, (which you basically alluded to) --- however, I would also say that the Ego & Anima/Animus are Ego syntonic, and the Persona & Shadow are Ego dystonic.

Thoughts?
