Psyche examines the succubus through the lens of Jungian psychology, particularly as a manifestation of the Anima archetype—the feminine shadow aspect of the male psyche that can manifest in seductive, destructive, or predatory forms. The succubus becomes a mirror for exploring how men's unconscious desires and repressed feminine energies can take on dangerous or parasitic qualities when unintegrated.
