Active imagination is a cornerstone of Jungian psychology. Carl Jung himself said it was "the vital second part of any analysis." Marie-Louise von Franz said it is "the most powerful tool in Jung's psychology for achieving wholeness - far more efficient than dream interpretation alone."

In this Core Practice exercise, we'll be bringing it right back to basics, working with either an image or a feeling that is showing up for you right now. We're going to respond to whatever is calling for your attention and enter into a dialogue with that material in symbolic form.

This is a foundational practice you can return to daily as part of your inner work.

Extended versions of these exercises and premium active imagination packs are available in Hestia, the hearth of the Make it Conscious community.
