Consciousness vs subconsciousness

Is it possible that our consciousness and subconsciousness work independently? Sometimes together and sometimes not? Say something makes perfect and logical sense for you to do. You make plans to do it and then you begin to. You all the sudden begin "tripping over yourself" or having a "brain fart". Could this be the battle between the two and we just not be aware?

Carl Jung coined the phrase "shadow self" to explain the parts of ourselves we are not aware of, don't know or don't want to acknowledge. I think that when there's a disconnect between the conscious and subconscious, it's that shadow self that's running the show.

I think it's possible. I'm not sure it works quite that way though.

Hi, Boredin,

You earn website points, and help other members get to know you better, when you write an informational profile that includes your hobbies and interests, and answer all the profile questions, since that's the first place many people look when they see a new member.

Also, the website uses your profile to find member matches, so the more details you include, the better the match.

Then you make comments and write your own posts to earn more points and privileges; for instance, at level two you can private email people. You get different perks with each level, and when you reach level eight you get an agnostic T-shirt.

To find members near you, click on the "Meet" button at the top of the page, then on "Members," and enter your preferred search parameters.
Or click on the "About" button at the top of the page to find links to FAQ or the website tutorial.
