Absorption is when individual identify is devoured by forces which end it.

The point of individual identity is the choice to resist archetypal forces. Whenever you feel inadequate, in any way, it is quite easy to want the intensity of identifying with an archetype, sacrificing any ability to fulfill yourself as a conscious human being. The adversity of being taken over is of the subtlest kind.
