A vague, persistent sense that something is wrong or that something bad is coming, even without a clear trigger. Diffuse unease that lingers on the edge of awareness.
These feelings arise from unresolved experiences, inner conflict, or subtle relational wounds that were never fully named or felt.
Not to be confused with intuition, which tends to be clear, directional, and confidently felt. Intuition offers a sense of knowing; shadow feelings signal that something’s unknown but emotionally alive. One points forward. The other asks to be found.
