Nigredo
In alchemy, nigredo, or blackness, means putrefaction or decomposition. Many alchemists believed that as a first step in the pathway to the philosopher's stone, all alchemical ingredients had to be cleansed and cooked extensively to a uniform black matter.In analytical psychology, the term became a metaphor for "the dark night of the soul, when an individual confronts the shadow within."
