The Archetype Visualization Game: A Test of Imagination
I invite you to take a special journey, an experience that will allow you to explore the depths of your soul through the power of imagination. Close your eyes, breathe deeply and let yourself be guided on this magical journey. There are no right or wrong answers – let the images emerge spontaneously.
The Journey (Part One – Visualization)
Take a moment for yourself. Relax and follow these instructions one at a time:
- Imagine that you are standing in front of a wall. Observe it in great detail. What is it made of? What material is it made of? How high is it? Is it old or new? Are there any openings? How do you intend to overcome it?
- Now visualize a ladder. It can be anywhere and of any type. How does it appear to your eyes? What material is it made of? How is it positioned?
- On your path, a key appears. Observe it carefully. What is it made of? Is it big or small? What material is it made of? Is it ancient or modern? Do you pick it up? If so, how do you feel when you pick it up?
- Suddenly, a bear appears. Notice your first reaction. What kind of bear is it? What does it do? How do you feel? What is your immediate reaction?
- A rabbit enters the scene. What does it look like? What does it do? How do you interact with it?
- Finally, a path opens up in front of you. What kind of path do you see? Where does it lead? What does it look like? What natural elements surround it?
The Meaning of Visions (Part Two – Interpretation)
Now that you have completed the journey, let’s find out together what your visualizations could mean:
The Wall: Represents your approach to life’s obstacles
Examples of interpretation:
- A very high wall of rough stone: you may perceive life’s challenges as particularly demanding
- A low wall of colored bricks: you tend to see obstacles as creative opportunities
- An ancient wall covered in ivy: you have a wise and patient approach to difficulties
- A wall with cracks or openings: you are skilled at finding alternative solutions
- A wall of crystal: you may have a transparent vision of obstacles but feel vulnerable
- A crumbling wall: you see obstacles as temporary and surmountable
The way you overcome the wall gives an idea of your approach to solving problems.

- Sunset: phase of transition
An Invitation to Reflection
This journey into the imagination is a powerful tool for self-knowledge. It is not a prediction of the future, but rather a mirror of your soul in this moment. The images you have visualized are messages from your unconscious, valuable clues about how you relate to various aspects of life.
Remember that each interpretation should resonate with you – if something doesn’t seem accurate, trust your instincts. The goal is not to judge, but to understand with love and acceptance the different aspects of ourselves.
I invite you to repeat this journey at different times in your life – you may find how your visualizations change to reflect your personal evolution.
