Up: [[Image]] Created: 2022-02-08 Mundus Imaginalis means the imaginal world. It’s the world of soul. In it, [[Image]] and [[Story]] and [[Archetype]]s have their own independent existence. We didn’t dream those things up; they were there. As such, it’s the Mundus Imaginalis that is the source of [[Synchronicity]], of transcendent experiences, of psychic experiences, and of creative insights. The idea of the Mundus Imaginalis comes from Sufi mystics who believed that it existed between the physical world of our senses and the intellectual/spiritual world. It can only be perceived, according to Henri Corbin, a French philosopher, through the act of imaging because imagination is the soul’s organ of perception and the Mundus Imaginalis is the world of soul. Jung went further and said that image IS the soul, the foundation of the soul. He said that the soul is constituted of images and that soul making is primarily an act of imaging.
