Taurus, the fixed earth sign, ruled by Venus, embodies stability, groundedness, and a deep appreciation for the material and sensory world. It represents steadfastness, pleasure, and the desire for security. In this active imagination exercise, we will connect with the energy of Taurus, aiming to better understand our relationship with patience, indulgence, and building foundations that offer comfort and security. By engaging with these aspects, we aim to cultivate a stronger sense of groundedness and appreciation for the tangible gifts of life. Remember that whatever you experience during this exercise is a reflection of your own mind and inner wisdom.

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.

The shadow is the unconscious realm of the psyche that contains parts of ourselves that we repress, deny, or hide from others. It can consist of traits, as well as accompanying emotions, beliefs, and desires. It is often made up of the parts of ourselves that we do not like, or are afraid to acknowledge. In this exercise, we will explore our shadow material by bringing to mind a person whom we find particularly challenging, and who might be reflecting our shadow material. You can work with any encounter that you have had with this person, recent or old. What matters is that it still holds an emotional charge.

The Anima is the archetype of the feminine principle, which exists in every human being. It represents our model of women and is based in both personal experience and rooted in our collective experiences of the feminine and of woman going back hundreds of thousands of years if not longer.

The Anima is naturally more unconscious in men, as a matter of definition, whereas for women it would be the Animus which is more unconscious. Anyone can benefit from developing a relationship with the Anima. For women you may wish to emphasise working with the Animus, but you can certainly still benefit from doing this exercise.

The Anima is therefore a conduit to qualities we usually associate with the feminine such as emotion, intuition, sensation, nurturing qualities, all of which are just as vital to existence as masculine qualities. Working with the Anima is not about integrating the entire archetype, because that would be impossible, but deepening a relationship with it. So it's not about becoming more feminine per se, but developing our relationship to this part of the psyche, which will naturally transfer over into our relationships with women in our life and feminine qualities, and allow us to see them as they really are, unencumbered by Anima projection and our own unconscious or unquestioned assumptions about everything that entails.

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.

The Shadow can be thought of as the unconscious realm of the psyche that contains all the material that we find difficult to confront within ourselves. This can include traits, behaviours. However it can also include beliefs, desires, archetypes and most certainly emotions or feelings. This uncomfortable, unrecognised material often plays out in real world situations which, through the conflicts that are created, compels us to look at this material and gives us clues as to what may still need to be resolved in ourselves in order to develop self knowledge.

In this exercise we'll be using active imagination to proactively approach some of this shadow material, understand how it may have been affecting our life, bring it into conscious awareness and reconcile with it to reduce inner conflict.

Before we begin, bring to mind an area of your life that isn't working as smoothly as it could be. This could relate to relationships, career, health, financial situation, or any other area where you are aware of a conflict.
