Under the ground: The usually hidden side of ourselves; our unconscious depths of experience – ancient strata of psychological and physiological processes in us; parts of self we have ignored or buried. Underground / subway: Our journeys into what is usually unconscious in us – such as realisation of childhood traits still active in us as an adult – meeting repressed sexuality – discovery of unexpressed potential or insight; something alternative we are considering or involved in – as in ‘underground’ newspaper. See: tunnel.
