The Moon: Symbolic Investigation Active Imagination | Carl Jung's Method

For most of human history, the moon was the only source of light after dark, reflecting back the sun's light. It gave humans a sense of time — the word "month" comes directly from the same root as "moon" — and there is evidence to suggest that humans have been tracking its cycles for at least 30,000 years. The moon is probably the most universal symbol of the feminine, its phases mirroring the female menstrual cycle. In this exercise, we're going to come to know this symbol more intimately and allow whatever insight needs to come to the surface.

This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation.
