Active imagination is a technique developed by Carl Jung to access the unconscious through a conscious dialogue. To begin active imagination, start by clearing your mind and inviting an image, feeling, or inner figure to appear. Wait patiently until something arises.

Make sure to record the dialogue in writing or audio so you can stay focus
