The Old Wise Woman - by Rix Weaver (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

This book was one of the first works made available to a general readership on the subject of Active Imagination--a technique developed by C. G. Jung in which the imaginal world is entered deliberately while awake in order to gain self-knowledge and resolve conflicts. In it, Rix Weaver presents an account of her work of Active Imagination with one of her analysands--a process that began with a dream and yielded a personal myth, recounted here with amplification and commentary.
