My mental model is that the ego is a shield that separates the space of thought into subconscious and conscious parts, and it moves its boundaries to draw shadows (in the Jungian sense) around parts of the subconscious for the purpose of self-coherence and self-preservation.

As a side note I'm both amused and curious why my original comment currently has negative votes. I would think that there would be many people here that share that sentiment though I guess some people find it scary to question the nature of reality.
