There are women who, while growing biologically, remain mentally stagnant in a state of childishness, dependent on external sources of love, affirmation, and stability. This form of female immaturity is not always visible at first glance because it is often disguised with charm, spontaneity, and even apparent independence. But beneath the surface there is a void that refuses to be filled. The absence of an internal autonomous ego. Carl Jung would see in this personality form the presence of a dormant or rejected inner shadow self that has never been embodied. This woman avoids responsibility not out of malice or idolatry, but because deep down she feels that her life belongs to someone else. To her father, to her partner, to the world that owes her. Her emotional dependence does not stem from weakness, but from an inner need to remain a virgin, refusing to cross the threshold of psychological adulthood. This is the little girl who became his eternal companion, the woman who will never grow up. This internal resistance to maturity is not just a personal characteristic. It is a deeply rooted psychological structure that, according to Carl Jung, is related to the denial of the embodiment of the shadow. The immature woman fears responsibility because she experiences it as a threat to her identity. Instead of evolving through difficulties, she prefers to remain in roles that offer her an illusion of security, often taking the form of the victim, the princess, or the eternal lover. These patterns are familiar, even attractive to the collective unconscious, as they reflect mythological forms that have persisted through the centuries. He believed that these archetypes function as models through which the soul manifests. However, when someone fully identifies with an archetype, they become trapped in it. Thus, the woman who often unconsciously chooses to live as an eternal prostitute, gives up on her path towards individualization. towards becoming whole. The Eternal fairy tale does not necessarily live a dream life, but she lives in a dream. Fantasy is her refuge, her mental home, to which she returns whenever reality threatens to disprove or injure her. This world of fantasy is often filled with ideal loves, unfulfilled potential, thwarted plans, but also a deep sense that something great awaits her. He notes that the soul that has not been grounded in reality ends up a slave to the unconscious. And in the case of the immature woman, the unconscious keeps her in a pre-adult phase where she refuses to assume her creative power. Instead of building, he dreams. Instead of committing, he experiments, instead of enduring, he runs away. And every escape is not just from people or situations, it is from oneself. The root of this immaturity often lies in the relationship with the mother or father or both. He repeatedly analyzed how childhood traumas, parental attachments, and projections form an internal system that profoundly affects adult life. The immature woman may have grown up with an overprotective father or an emotionally absent mother, thus creating a void that she never learned to fill on her own. Her insecurity about her identity leads her to constantly search for someone who will save her or complete her. This is not love, it is mental dependence. And every time the relationship doesn't work, she doesn't step inward, she doesn't examine herself, she just shifts the expectation to the next one. Thus a vicious circle is born. The other becomes a mirror of its own lack. And she, instead of seeing clearly, gets angry with the mirror. According to Carl Jung, no external person can cure a person's inner weakness unless the person himself decides to face his shadow. But the immature woman avoids this conflict. Instead of diving into herself to discover who she really is, she builds roles. Sometimes she is the graceful one, sometimes the fatal one, sometimes the wounded one. But always something that depends on the external view. It does not have a stable core because it has not gone through the internal process of atomic formation. Her life resembles a theater where she plays roles that are sometimes moving and sometimes tiring, but never truly express her deepest self. Jung emphasized that this absence of individual authenticity creates inner chaos, which is either projected onto others in the form of anger, or returns as depression, anxiety, or a feeling of emptiness. And the more she avoids seeing this truth, the harsher the reality that finally forces her to see it becomes. Immaturity is not necessarily a lack of intelligence or education. It can also manifest in extremely intelligent, creative women. Carl Jung warned that spiritual development does not necessarily mean spiritual maturity. A woman can be educated, eloquent, even socially successful, but inside she still lives in a world of adolescent needs and grievances. A characteristic element of Pella Eterna is that it denies time, abhors decay, commitment, monotony, and seeks tension, magic, and inspiration. He lives for passion. Not for the depth. So when everyday life demands responsibility, consistency, and roots, she feels trapped, as if her freedom is being stolen. But this freedom is apathetic because it is a denial, not an affirmation of life. Ugh would say that as long as a woman refuses to recognize the power of time as an ally in her inner transformation, she remains a prisoner of her own self. The Eternal dog does not tolerate boredom. But true maturity, as he describes it, comes through the acceptance of monotony, silence, everyday life, where personality takes root and begins to develop depth. The immature woman is frightened by nothingness, because nothingness reminds her that she has not yet built something truly her own. He constantly seeks new stimuli, new relationships, new experiences, not out of curiosity, but to avoid emptiness. But emptiness is not an enemy. It is the entrance to the inner world, where true awareness begins. The soul does not evolve through avoidance, but through immersion. As he would say, man does not become luminous by manifesting images of light, but by making darkness conscious. The woman who is afraid of standing alone, of being bored, of not being desirable for a while, is essentially afraid of meeting her true self, and it is this fear that binds her to her childish state. One of the most subtle but defining manifestations of female immaturity is the tendency to see men as either saviors or enemies. A woman who has not matured mentally cannot see a man as an equal other. She sees him as a reflection of her own inner voids or wounds. She either devalues him and burdens him with the fantasy of perfect care, or she demonizes him and blames him for her unhappiness. Neither stance is based on reality. They are simply two aspects of the same projection. Ugh emphasized that when the inner man, the anima in man, the animos in woman, has not been embodied, then individuals try to find it in others. The immature woman looks for in the external man what she has not found within herself. Stability, logic, protection, pillar. But as long as he doesn't build it internally, every attempt at a relationship fails or becomes a battlefield. The solution is not to change the men she attracts, it is to change her internal landscape. The immature woman's inability to be alone is one of the deepest signs of her mental emptiness. It is not simply a need for companionship, but an existential dependence, as if one does not exist without the reflection of another. Carl Jung explained that a person who has not developed their inner dialogue is psychologically dependent on external shadows to see themselves. The Eternal poem has an atrophic relationship with the inner voice. Loneliness terrifies her because it confronts her with the truth that her life has not been built on anything of her own. That's why they often stay in toxic relationships simply to avoid feeling completely isolated. But he firmly believed that all true transformation begins with the acceptance of loneliness, not as punishment, but as hatred. It is there, in the wilderness of existence, that the individual is called to become something more than his need, to become a person with roots and essence. The immature woman often misinterprets the concept of self-realization; instead of seeking it through gradual self-discovery and taking responsibility for her life, she equates it with absolute freedom from obligations, limits, and discipline. Carl Jung, however, presents self-realization not as an escape from the burden of life but as a unification of all the internal contradictions of light and darkness, of the child and the adult, of the male and the female element within the soul. The eternally trapped woman rejects unification because she fears the loss of the magic of herself. She wants to remain free but ends up a slave to her impulses. Discipline, commitment, endurance, all the hallmarks of her maturity seem like a betrayal of her spontaneity. And yet only when he learns to go through these stages with full awareness will he reach true freedom. The one that is born not from the denial of limits, but from dominion over them. Refusing to face pain is one of the most basic defenses of the immature woman. Every experience that causes her disappointment, sadness, or frustration automatically becomes something toxic, something she must remove. He doesn't understand, or rather doesn't want to understand, that pain is a teacher. He emphasized that without pain there is no transformation. The soul is not shaped by ease, but by friction. But the immature woman wants life without consequences, love without loss, success without effort. And so every time he gets hurt, he doesn't introspect, he reacts. She becomes either a victim or an accuser, but rarely a student. Her pain does not mature her because it does not allow her to change. In fact, every time she refuses to stay with the discomfort, she misses the opportunity to get to know who she really is. Maturity, as he understood it, is not the absence of trauma, but its integration into a meaning. An important characteristic of an immature woman is her attachment to her external image. She is consumed by aesthetics, appearance, and the way others look at her. This does not mean that interest in beauty is a sign of immaturity. Moreover, he recognized the value of personality, of the personal role we adopt in society. The problem arises when the woman completely identifies with this mask and loses all contact with her inner depth. Then the need to be attractive turns into anxiety. Every rant, every frustration, every period of silence or rejection is experienced as a threat to her identity. This woman has learned to be defined by the gaze of others and not by her own inner reflection. Hugh believed that the person who lacks an internal axis is forced to build his existence on projections, that is, on illusions. And the more the immature woman invests in the image, the emptier she remains inside. The inability to set boundaries is another defining sign of female immaturity, as described by Jungian analysis. The immature woman either lets others invade her inner space uncontrollably, or becomes an invader herself in the lives of others, trying to derive value through excessive connection. She has not built a clear, strong ego that can separate who we are together from who I am alone. He described this phenomenon as a loss of self-limitations. A state where the person is carried away by the mental roles they play without having a stable center. A woman who doesn't know how to say no easily becomes a victim of emotional manipulation, or conversely, she practices manipulation herself to keep people close to her. In both cases the root of the problem is the same. The deep doubt about her value as a separate autonomous person. Without clear boundaries, there is no mental maturity. Only eternal dependence. The immature woman has difficulty accepting responsibility for her choices . She lives in a mental mechanism where things happen to her. It's as if she's never truly responsible for what happens in her life. According to Carl Jung, this is a sign of incomplete individuality. Of an existence that has not taken on its shadow. That is, the sides of it that are neither beautiful, nor easy, nor heroic. The woman who remains in this stage of immaturity often blames others for failed relationships, career stagnation, and lack of satisfaction. But he doesn't see that repeated disappointments are mirrors of an internal pattern. He calls us to seek the cause within and not without. As long as a woman does not recognize that her life is a reflection of her inner choices, whether conscious or unconscious, she will remain captive to a childish perspective that sees herself as a victim. Maturation begins the moment she takes full responsibility for who she is and where she is. Emotional dependence on other people, whether friends or partners, is another common characteristic of an immature woman. Despite the apparent need for independence, inside she constantly desires affirmation, acceptance, and constant confirmation of her worth from the external environment. Carl Jung emphasized that emotional autonomy is one of the most important steps in mental maturity. When someone becomes overly dependent on external acceptance, they become unable to understand and appreciate their inner strength. The immature woman often sees the idea of going it alone as a threat. Especially in relationships, the problem can become more intense as the feeling of need for the other person turns into mental oppression. But real strength comes when she manages to learn to stand alone, accept her internal contradictions, and create a solid foundation for herself, without depending on the presence or acceptance of others. The immature woman often confuses emotional intensity with love. If there is no drama, tension, jealousy, or sudden changes in excitement, he believes the relationship is dead, boring, or passionless. This confusion is characteristic of the immature psyche, which has not yet understood the deeper nature of love as conscious commitment and inner silence. Carl Jung pointed out that true relationship is not based on external stimuli, but on an internal sharing. The immature woman, however, has learned to identify love with insecurity and desire with overexertion. When her partner offers her peace and security, she feels like something is missing, because she hasn't learned to be quiet within herself. This is why she often rejects or abandons healthy relationships, chasing imaginary role models that confirm her addiction to mental chaos. Only when she manages to connect with her inner closeness and stability will she be able to recognize love without the need for drama. Another element that characterizes the mentally immature woman is her allergy to stability and routine. While he often expresses a desire for a quiet life, once he finds it, he rejects or undermines it. The Eternal Woman, as Carl Jung describes her, cannot stand monotony because she herself has not cultivated an inner world. It relies solely on external stimuli to feel alive. So she constantly needs something new, something stronger, something more challenging to avoid the silence and stability that bring her into contact with her inner empty space. Yet maturity requires the ability to live in everyday life with depth and meaning, to find beauty in the simple and duration in the ordinary. A soul that matures is not afraid to take root because it knows that only through rooting comes flowering. The immature woman must learn that adventure lies not only in the new, but also in the steady, slow, steady path towards herself. Lack of self-awareness is perhaps the most fundamental problem of the immature woman. She hasn't invested time in getting to know herself beyond labels, fantasies, and social expectations. She doesn't know what she really wants, what hurts, what motivates her deeply beyond the superficial. Carl Jung believed that psychological maturity comes only through the process of individuation, that is, the individual's path towards their authentic self, away from personality. The immature woman often plays roles, the sweet, the independent, the romantic, the successful, without ever asking herself who she is beyond all of this. And so with every failure, with every crisis, she feels like her entire world is collapsing, because she has no inner foundations. Self-awareness is not just knowledge. It is contact with the core of existence. It is a connection with the shadow, with the trauma, with the light. Only when a woman turns inward with courage can she find that stability that no one else can offer her. As we approach the end of this psychological journey, it becomes apparent that emerging from immaturity is not a matter of external transformation, but of internal revolution. Carl Jung invites us to see the soul not as something static, but as something that is called to become. Through pain, awareness and responsibility. A woman who wants to mature must first grieve. To mourn the loss of the eternal girl who gave her a sense of lightness, but kept her away from her essence. She must leave behind the need to like, to impress, to depend. To accept that maturity doesn't always have sparkle, but it does have meaning. To learn to live not for the expectations of others, but for her own truth. The transition is not easy or quick, but it is liberating. It is the passage from the surface to the depth, from fantasy to reality, from girl to woman. It is the moment she chooses to become her own mother. With all that this means in responsibility, strength and love. Maturity is ultimately not something that is achieved once and for all. It is a daily attitude, a conscious return to oneself. It is the courage to stand alone, to endure the silence, to see clearly and to continue. He said that what is not made conscious returns as destiny. And so the immature woman who doesn't look her shadow in the eye will continue to be attracted to the wrong relationships, to be disappointed, to feel empty until she chooses differently. On the contrary, the woman who dares to search for depth, to accept her contradictions, to reconcile with her wounds, begins to transform. Its power no longer comes from how desirable it is, but from how real it has become. And this is the rarest and most beautiful form of maturity. The one who doesn't shout, but radiates. The one who doesn't struggle to prove anything, but inspires. The one who is born when the girl inside is loved enough to calm down and let the woman stand in her light.
