LECTURE - Polaritäten des Lebens im Spiegel des Symbols Labyrinth
Thursday July 17, 2025 14:00 - 14:30 CEST
Polaritäten des Lebens am Beispiel der Imagination „Labyrinth“ mit der Katathym Imaginativen Psychotherapie

Die Katathym Imaginative Psychotherapie macht sich das bildhafte Denken des Menschen bzw. die Fähigkeit zur Imagination zu Nutze, um dem Unbewussten auf die Spur zu kommen. Die Vorstellungswelt wird im hypnoiden Zustand durch Vorgabe symbolträchtiger Motive angeregt. Sie sind ein Leitgedanke, der den Einstieg in die imaginative Welt erleichtern soll, und stellen einen Kristallisationskern zur Anregung von Bildszenen dar. Die innere Bühne der Imaginationen bilden das ab, was „auf dem Herzen liegt“. Die Imaginationen sind ein Abbild bzw. Darstellung der innerseelischen Situation, der Konflikte, ihrer Abwehr, von Emotionen und Lösungen. Auf einer bildhaft symbolischen Ebene erfolgt eine Konfliktmobilisierung mit der Möglichkeit zur Konfliktbearbeitung und Konfliktlösung. Die gestalterische und verbale Nachbearbeitung der Imaginationen verhelfen zu einem Erkenntnisprozess.
Im Vortrag geben Fallbeispiele aus der Praxis Einblick in den Umgang mit dem symbolträchtigen Motiv „Labyrinth“, das als ein Symbol für die Reise in das eigene Innere verstanden werden kann.


Polarities of Life Using the Example of the “Labyrinth” Imagination in Guided Affective Imagery (GAI)

GAI makes use of the human capacity for visual thinking and imagination in order to trace the unconscious. In a hypnoid state, the world of imagination is stimulated through the introduction of symbolic motifs. These motifs serve as guiding ideas, intended to facilitate entry into the imaginative world, and act as crystallization points to stimulate the emergence of inner images.
The imaginative stage reflects core intrapsychic processes, functioning as a symbolic representation of the individual’s emotional state, internal conflicts, defensive operations, affective dynamics, and potential avenues for resolution. Within the symbolic-imaginal framework, conflict activation is facilitated, allowing for the mobilization, exploration, and transformation of unconscious material. The subsequent creative and verbal elaboration of the imagery serves to enhance ego functions, promote affect regulation, and foster processes of self-reflection and integration.
In the presentation, clinical case studies illustrate the therapeutic use of the labyrinth as a symbolic motif, conceptualized as a metaphor for the inward journey toward self-discovery and psychological integration.
