Latin, masc., "soul." The unconscious,
masculine side of a woman's personality. He is the Logos, spirit principle in women,
personified in dreams by images ranging from muscle-men to poets to spiritual leaders.
When identified with the animus a woman becomes argumentative and rigidly
opinionated. Projection
of the animus leads to a woman's falling in love. A woman's animus
development is reflected in how she relates to men.*
