What an amazing book! Please don't be put off by the disturbing cover art. It takes readers through several case studies of people's experiences with active imagination, from a man who's creativity has been repressed by a negative anima figure to a woman embracing wholeness before her death. Just reading about these symbolic experiences of others was powerful for me.

I'll reiterate what other reviews have said about this volume, that it probably shouldn't be your first book about Jungian active imagination, but is a wonderful supplement.

If you're looking for an active imagination how-to guide, this isn't it - I recommend Robert A. Johnson's "Inner Work."
