Attempting to conceptualize, rationalize, or externalize the puer — turning it into abstractions, theories, or excuses — only strengthens the collective shadow. Each mental construct creates distance from the actual experience, a form of avoidance disguised as understanding. Instead of integration, the shadow is reinforced, as the energy of misalignment persists unacknowledged and unabsorbed. Most people fall into this trap, thinking that naming, explaining, or objectifying the puer is mastery, when in reality it is a bypass: the playful energy remains fragmented, and the collective heaviness continues to dominate the field. True integration arises only through direct, felt engagement, without conceptual shields.
