Metaphor requires the activation of not only thinking but also creative imagination and implementation of the “as if” technique, that makes the impossible possible.

Metaphors are often unconscious and the creation of metaphors selectively used sensory and bodily experience.

How to create a metaphor

What do you want to describe? An idea? A problem? An object?

What characteristic of the chosen object do you want to compare with another idea or object?

Look for the relationships. Write them down.
