| Working with Anger | Guided Active Imagination Exercise | Shadow Work Exercise | 06 juin 2026 | 00:14:59 | |
In this exercise we're going to be working with anger. Anger is one of the most misunderstood emotions across virtually every tradition — religious, therapeutic, cultural. This is quite simply because most do not differentiate between conscious and unconscious anger, or at least having a conscious relationship to anger or not. As Alan Watts once said, "The idea that there are no wrong feelings is an immensely threatening one to people who are afraid to feel." Anger gets treated as the problem when actually it's the relationship to anger that is the problem. Just like every other emotion, anger exists for a reason. It is a signal. It has intelligence. It often knows something before the rest of you does. This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| Transforming Conflict: Guided Active Imagination | Shadow Work Exercise | 30 mai 2026 | 00:20:59 | |
In this exercise, we're working with conflict — interpersonal conflict. This is a good exercise to do if you've had a conflict recently, especially one with an emotional charge that lingered and where you know there's something more to uncover about yourself and the situation. Interpersonal conflict is one of the best windows into understanding ourselves and our own minds. But whatever self-knowledge conflict has to offer, you often cannot think your way to all of it. A direct encounter with unconscious content produces what thinking alone cannot. And when it comes to conflict this can get tricky, because the ego has a real stake in it. There's also the opposite trap: assuming it's all projection, or all your own mind creating it. The goal is to see clearly, and that means being willing to look in both directions — at the inner and the outer shadow work. This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| The Shadow: Through Others' Eyes | Guided Active Imagination Exercise | 23 mai 2026 | 00:14:59 | |
In this guided active imagination exercise, we're going to be working with the shadow. The shadow is everything that we don't like about ourselves and that we keep out of conscious awareness. Any time we take a stance in life, something else gets left out, and this creates a number of challenges. What gets left out must find expression somehow, and is a vital and necessary part of our personality that must be reconciled with in developing self-knowledge. If there's anywhere that the shadow gets challenged and revealed, it's in our relationships with other people. Their responses to us - particularly the quiet ones, the unexplained distance and withdrawal - are not under our control, which is precisely what makes other people one of the most reliable mirrors for reflecting back our shadow material. Working with shadow material is not about becoming liked by everybody or reforming yourself for social gain, but about understanding where you may have become one-sided and, through that, developing greater self-knowledge and cultivating deeper relationships with others as well as with yourself. This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| The House: Symbolic Investigation Active Imagination | Carl Jung's Shadow Work Method | 16 mai 2026 | 00:16:59 | |
The house is a symbol that immediately incites something in all of us. The psyche of its own accord very regularly produces the symbol of a home or a house to communicate the self. There is so much in the symbol that relates to the structure of our minds - houses have multiple floors, multiple rooms, high parts and low parts, underground sections. They contain various objects and various different people, each also reflecting back aspects of ourselves. Carl Jung, in Memories, Dreams, Reflections, describes a dream he had of a house in which each floor was a different style from a different era. The ground floor medieval, the cellar Roman. This experience shaped his entire model of mind. There is also much to be said for the appearance of a house as the hard outer shell or facade we present, and the inner realm we protect. Home is a feeling state - a sense of belonging, safety, the ability to be yourself. This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| What Are You Feeling? | Emotional Integration | Shadow Work Exercise | 08 mai 2026 | 00:09:59 | |
This exercise is designed to be used on a regular basis for working with and becoming aware of feeling. Feelings are how the body communicates its needs. Whatever you're doing in life, whatever you're working towards, in whatever way you're growing, it's necessary that every action you take resists something else. So we have many needs, but not all of them can be addressed or met at the same time. It's important therefore to regularly check in with what the body is telling us - what our emotions are telling us about other needs we may have set aside for a time. This exercise is also available in extended fifteen and twenty-minute versions in Hestia. This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| The Mirror: Symbolic Investigation Active Imagination | Carl Jung's Shadow Work Method | 19 avr. 2026 | 00:15:59 | |
In ancient Egypt, the word for mirror and the hieroglyph for life shared the same root - "Ankh." From the very beginning, the mirror was understood as offering more than a surface appearance. It was a place where something essential about a person becomes visible. Before polished metal, people saw themselves only in water, and across cultures the mirror appears not as a passive surface but as something that retains - a soul catcher. To break a mirror was to damage some part of yourself. In this exercise, we're going to engage with this symbol directly and allow whatever needs to come to the surface to do so. This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| The Inner Critic | Guided Active Imagination Exercise | Carl Jung's Shadow Work Method | 13 avr. 2026 | 00:18:59 | |
The inner critic—a figure most of us can relate to on some level—is often assumed to be on our side, pushing us to improve, to achieve, to become who we're supposed to be. And that's not entirely wrong—it does produce movement, it does compel us to take action. Often entire careers or lifestyles are built around meeting the demands of the inner critic. But often that movement, while it feels like progress, is actually another form of appeasement. By following it alone, you're not building what truly matters to all parts of you, but rather satisfying a voice on its own terms. From the perspective of Jungian psychology, the inner critic is a complex—a part of the mind with its own agenda, borrowed from somewhere real, usually very early in life, and usually from people who wielded enormous power over you. In this exercise, we open up that connection. Not to eliminate or to silence it, but to meet with it directly, understand what it's actually doing, what it's protecting, what its needs are, and communicate back to it what you need in turn. This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| The Moon: Symbolic Investigation Active Imagination | Carl Jung's Method | 04 avr. 2026 | 00:13:59 | |
<p>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.</p><br /><p>This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation.</p><br /><p>🔥 Extended exercises, premium packs and shadow work courses available in Hestia: <a href="https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/</a></p><br /><p>----------</p><br /><p><strong>Free Personality Dynamics Assessment:</strong> <a href="https://makeitconscious.com/pda/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://makeitconscious.com/pda/</a></p><p>Discover your psychological type and development pathway.</p><br /><p><strong>Hestia - The hearth of the Make it Conscious community:</strong> <a href="https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/</a></p><p>Premium courses, active imagination exercises, and community for Jungian depth work.</p><br /><p>----------</p><br /><p><strong>Playlists & Series:</strong></p><p>Active Imagination Exercises - <a href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeuFwuWK5O2MMxqoPMkk9eEbVIrbwq-7B&si=NgEZKF8F2ztgqEpb" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeuFwuWK5O2MMxqoPMkk9eEbVIrbwq-7B&si=NgEZKF8F2ztgqEpb</a></p><p>Mapping the Shadow Series - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeuFwuWK5O2PriUHnSAKpaf5eOpy27Nsw" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeuFwuWK5O2PriUHnSAKpaf5eOpy27Nsw</a></p><br /><p><strong>More from Make it Conscious:</strong></p><p>MiC Podcast - <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/6AxGzV3sa6kK2NKSKDyuJa?si=4153da0bb1a243a3" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/6AxGzV3sa6kK2NKSKDyuJa?si=4153da0bb1a243a3</a></p><p>Inner Work Exercises Podcast - <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/4OMC4T1PNsA951dvvHhYMs?si=72af3c85c97b4536" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/4OMC4T1PNsA951dvvHhYMs?si=72af3c85c97b4536</a></p><p>Blog - <a href="https://makeitconscious.com/blog/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://makeitconscious.com/blog/</a></p><br /><p><strong>Connect:</strong></p><p>Instagram - <a href="https://instagram.com/makeitconscious" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://instagram.com/makeitconscious</a></p><p>X - <a href="https://x.com/makeitconscious" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://x.com/makeitconscious</a></p> | |||
| Working with Fear | Guided Active Imagination Exercise | Carl Jung's Method | 28 mars 2026 | 00:17:59 | |
In this exercise, we're going to be working with fear. As Carl Jung famously said, "where the fear, there is your task!" Working with fear is a very important part of the individuation journey, and in adult development more generally. There is little growth without confronting fear at some point or another. Often what makes fear so challenging is more about how our mind is relating to it than the fear itself. Fear is coaxed and encouraged in large part by our own minds, and our avoidance of it feeds it. In this exercise, we use active imagination to gently confront fear: not to eliminate it exactly, but to transform it, understand it better, and let it point the way to whatever you need to do as part of your development. This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| What is Coming Alive in You? | Jungian Active Imagination Exercise | Core Practice Series | 21 mars 2026 | 00:15:59 | |
In this exercise, there's no need to decide ahead of time what you'd like to work with. It's appropriate for when you aren't sure quite how you're feeling, or you know there's something that is bothering you but you can't quite get a handle on it. Instead, we ask the question 'what is coming alive in me that is calling for my attention,' and let the unconscious present the seed for the active imagination exercise itself.

| Honouring the Unconscious | Guided Active Imagination Exercise | Core Practice Series | 14 mars 2026 | 00:14:59 | |
In this active imagination exercise, there's a particular focus on how to engage with the unconscious effectively. In active imagination practice, one of two things can happen. Either there's a tendency to try and control the experience a bit too much — the ego gets too involved and the unconscious takes a back seat, producing what it already wants to create, and you come away having not really learned much about what the unconscious has to say. On the other hand, if you're not involved enough, the experience can seem fragmented, busy, chaotic — showing up more as noise than something coherent and useful. The sweet spot is in the middle, and this exercise guides you in finding it. This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| The Mountain: Symbolic Investigation Active Imagination | Carl Jung's Method | 07 mars 2026 | 00:17:59 | |
In almost every tradition, the gods are placed on the mountains - Olympus, Sinai, Fuji. The mountain is where heaven meets earth. In alchemy, the mountain is considered the source of prima materia, containing the raw materials needed for transformation. The ascent of a mountain gives you perspective, expansion, maybe a fleeting peak experience - it literally involves rising up above the earth, but it also means becoming more exposed and losing all of your usual supports and lifelines. This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| The Cave: Symbolic Investigation | Guided Active Imagination Exercise | 28 févr. 2026 | 00:17:59 | |
In today's exercise, we're going to be investigating the symbol of the cave. Caves form a profound part of our collective psyche. Long before we had temples or structures of our own, humans were entering caves. The oldest known art on Earth was made deep inside caves. To enter a cave is literally to go inwards, to go beneath the surface — making it a very useful symbol to work with as a way to facilitate a deeper inquiry during this practice. As Joseph Campbell reportedly said: "The very cave you are afraid to enter turns out to be the source of what you are looking for." This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| The Ocean: Symbolic Investigation Active Imagination | Carl Jung's Method | 21 févr. 2026 | 00:17:59 | |
In this active imagination exercise, we investigate the symbol of the ocean. Oceans are possibly the most potent natural symbol of the unconscious mind available to us. Water, when it shows up in visions and dreams, very often represents the unconscious. Some liken the ocean and the psyche to visible and invisible forms of the same reality. We came from the ocean biologically and ancestrally, and both the psyche and the ocean contain impenetrable depths, have their own rhythms, and are affected by the tides of natural cycles. Carl Jung likened the ego to a cork floating on the surface of the ocean that is the psyche, which gives some sense of the magnitude of the unconscious mind. Jung himself once wrote: "Like the sea itself, the unconscious yields an endless and self-replenishing abundance of living creatures, a wealth beyond our fathoming."

| The Forest: Symbolic Investigation Active Imagination | Carl Jung's Method | 14 févr. 2026 | 00:16:59 | |
In this active imagination exercise, we investigate the symbol of the forest. Forests continue to play a vital role in our lives. Much of Europe was once dominated by forest. Today, the Amazon Rainforest is believed to contain around 10% of all the world's species. Forests are often associated with the unconscious itself - they contain many unknown elements, and you never quite know what you're going to discover. They are places of loneliness, healing, and continuous growth and decay. Jung himself once wrote: "The forest has a mysterious impenetrability. Things suddenly appear and disappear, and there are no paths. Anything is possible." This exercise uses active imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| Bare Attention: Working with Feeling | Active Imagination & Meditation Exercise | 03 déc. 2025 | 00:15:59 | |
In any kind of inner work, working with feeling is of utmost importance. This involves first being aware of feeling and then being willing to confront the tension that it brings into your conscious awareness. This guided exercise focuses on a technique called bare attention—directing your awareness to the direct and raw experience of what you are actually experiencing. It combines traditional meditation techniques with active imagination - a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| Core Practice: Daily Active Imagination for Psychological Transformation | 30 nov. 2025 | 00:14:59 | |
In this active imagination exercise, you'll perform what I call simply Core Practice - a foundational technique you can use on a regular, if not daily basis. The idea here is that this is a very basic technique without deciding ahead of time which seed you're going to work with today. Instead, you're going to be simply listening to your mind, to your body and letting it give you a steer and working with that as the inspiration for the dialogue with the unconscious.

| What Needs Attention? Guided Active Imagination Exercise | Core Practice Series | Carl Jung's Method | 26 nov. 2025 | 00:14:59 | |
In this exercise, we're using a technique I call core practice. This is a basic, stripped down active imagination exercise you can use on a daily basis. The idea is that you don't need to decide ahead of time what you're going to be working with. Instead, you're going to listen and respond to your mind, because it usually has a way of telling us what needs to be worked on. It communicates with us through emotion, images, thoughts, memories, and dreams.

| Meeting the Shadow: Active Imagination Exercise for Working with Difficult Parts of Yourself | 23 nov. 2025 | 00:15:00 | |
In this exercise, you'll work directly with the shadow - a key concept in Jungian psychology. As James Hollis defines it, the shadow is "that which is difficult to confront in ourselves." This includes any parts of our minds that we don't like, deny, or push away - behaviours, traits, and clusters of psychic content we'd rather not face. Using a recent situation where you felt indignant or experienced injustice as a starting point, you'll meet in symbolic form the part of yourself that's difficult to confront. Through guided visualisation, you'll enter a liminal space where shadow material can emerge and be engaged with directly. This exercise uses Active Imagination, a technique developed by Carl Jung for engaging directly with unconscious contents, facilitating genuine psychological transformation. 🔥 Extended exercises and premium packs available in Hestia: https://hestia.makeitconscious.com/ ---------- Free Personality Dynamics Assessment: https://makeitconscious.com/pda/ Discover your psychological type and development pathway.

| Core Practice: Guided Active Imagination Exercise for Daily Inner Work | Carl Jung's Method | 19 nov. 2025 | 00:12:00 | |
Active imagination is a cornerstone of Jungian psychology. Carl Jung himself said it was "the vital second part of any analysis." Marie-Louise von Franz said it is "the most powerful tool in Jung's psychology for achieving wholeness - far more efficient than dream interpretation alone." In this Core Practice exercise, we'll be bringing it right back to basics, working with either an image or a feeling that is showing up for you right now. We're going to respond to whatever is calling for your attention and enter into a dialogue with that material in symbolic form. This is a foundational practice you can return to daily as part of your inner work.

| The Fool - Tarot Active Imagination Meditation Exercise - Walking the Path | 01 avr. 2025 | 00:39:05 | |
The Fool, as both the first and last card in the major arcana, represents the spiritual journey from inception to realisation. It hints to the reality that a path exists at all, along with an opportunity to increase in freedom and consciousness, should we so choose. As card number 22, it signifies an ending, of returning home and knowing the place for the first time, whilst the sigil of zero suggests beginnings as much as endings, of something apparently coming from 'nothing,' highlighting life’s ever-present mystery and paradox. The Fool encourages us to leap forward into new phases of life, to be fearless, embrace individuation and to come to know ourselves through exploration. In this active imagination exercise, we will go on a journey as The Fool, guided by our psychopomp companion, delving into the themes of freedom, individuation and discovering more of ourselves along the way. Active Imagination is a technique developed by the Swiss psychologist Carl Jung for engaging with the unconscious mind. Jung considered Active Imagination to be the most powerful way to access the unconscious mind and a vital technique for attaining wholeness of personality. ---------- Unlock a Lifetime of Self-insight with a Tarot Birth Chart Report - https://makeitconscious.com/step/tarot-birth-chart-reports/ ---------- Learn the Art of Science of Self-Knowledge - Sign up to the Know Yourself Programme: How to Talk to Yourself - the Active Imagination Course - https://knowyourself.makeitconscious.com/course/activeimagination The MiC Philosophy Course (only $7) - https://knowyourself.makeitconscious.com/course/micphilosophy ---------- Divination - Two Part Video Series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeuFwuWK5O2NCUr11ZJRmaXuwTfvScrwf ---------- Why Divination is Real article series: https://makeitconscious.com/why-divination-is-real/ ---------- Seven Habits of Individuation Ebook: https://makeitconscious.com/sevenhabits/ ---------- Main Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6AxGzV3sa6kK2NKSKDyuJa ---------- Make It Conscious Blog: https://makeitconscious.com/blog/ ---------- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/makeitconscious/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/maxchegwyn/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/makeitconscious ---------- Music provided by CoolTones, from Pond5 | |||

In this active imagination exercise, we will engage with The World and the four modalities of consciousness, aiming to better understand our current relationship to each, and what still needs to happen to bring them into harmony.

| Dream Re-Entry & Exploration - Revised & Extended - Active Imagination Exercise | 15 mars 2025 | 00:21:01 | |
Working with dreams often forms a primary part of Jungian analysis and can play a pivotal role in anyone's investigation into themselves. Dreams often form a compensatory role to our conscious attitude, and can provide great insights into the nature of our minds and the direction of our lives, where we might be going off track, and where we might be having conflict with ourselves and the world around us. Carl Jung recommended using dreams as the 'seed' for active imagination. There are many seeds that can be used, but working with dreams, given the emotional charge that often accompanies them, and the direct reflection of the dynamics of our minds, can be a particularly useful entry point into active imagination. Active Imagination is a technique developed by the Swiss psychologist Carl Jung for engaging with the unconscious mind. Jung considered Active Imagination to be the most powerful way to access the unconscious mind and a vital technique for attaining wholeness of personality. ---------- Unlock a Lifetime of Self-insight with a Tarot Birth Chart Report - https://makeitconscious.com/step/tarot-birth-chart-reports/ ---------- Learn the Art of Science of Self-Knowledge - Sign up to the Know Yourself Programme: How to Talk to Yourself - the Active Imagination Course - https://knowyourself.makeitconscious.com/course/activeimagination The MiC Philosophy Course (only $7) - https://knowyourself.makeitconscious.com/course/micphilosophy ---------- Divination - Two Part Video Series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeuFwuWK5O2NCUr11ZJRmaXuwTfvScrwf ---------- Why Divination is Real article series: https://makeitconscious.com/why-divination-is-real/ ---------- Seven Habits of Individuation Ebook: https://makeitconscious.com/sevenhabits/ ---------- Main Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6AxGzV3sa6kK2NKSKDyuJa ---------- Make It Conscious Blog: https://makeitconscious.com/blog/ ---------- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/makeitconscious/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/makeitconscious/ X: https://x.com/makeitconscious ---------- Music provided by CoolTones, from Pond5 | |||

| The Moon - Tarot Active Imagination Meditation Exercise - Explore your Relationship to the Mystical | 05 mars 2025 | 00:24:47 | |
The Moon card is associated with mysticism, the occult, and the oceanic expanse of the unconscious mind. Despite its name, it is actually ruled by Neptune, and is the card of Pisces. While all tarot cards relate to the mind and the unconscious in some way, The Moon in particular can be linked to the practice of active imagination and the interface with the unconscious that it facilitates. Carl Jung himself, under the Taroscopic system, would be considered a Pisces-rising. The Moon represents the exploration of the subconscious and the pull between surface reality and deeper, murky layers of the unconscious. In this active imagination exercise, we will explore the energies of The Moon card and our relationship to the mystical and the occult, whilst also becoming aware of the dangers of escapism and fantasy.
