Active Imagination: A Jungian Approach to the Unconscious

  • Summary

  • Carl Jung's active imagination is a technique for accessing the unconscious mind. This approach involves a conscious dialogue with inner figures and images, setting it apart from passive daydreaming. Jung's personal experience with this method, documented in his Red Book, illustrates its potential for self-discovery and individuation. A four-step framework—invitation, dialogue, values, and ritual—highlights the ethical considerations and the practical integration of insights gained. Active imagination is contrasted with passive fantasy, emphasizing its significance in achieving a sense of wholeness in personality.
