Active imagination is one of Jung’s most original contributions to the understanding of the dynamics of the psyche and ways of working with the contents of the unconscious. His own self-experimentation in 1913 took the form of entering into waking fantasies and dialoguing with the characters that appeared. The development of this approach as a systematic way of engaging with the inner world marked the introduction of a new aim of psychotherapy that went beyond the cure of neuroses and made analytical psychology a distinct discipline of psychotherapy. This seminar will explore Jung’s method of active imagination, its practical applications, its historical context and its role in individuation.
