“As a plant produces its flower, so the psyche creates its symbols”

Carl Jung

Simplified Meaning:

Just like how a plant grows flowers naturally, our minds create symbols and images without us having to think about it. For example, when we dream at night, our minds make up pictures and stories. These dreams can tell us things about our feelings or worries. Just as flowers help a plant to attract bees, symbols in our mind help us understand our emotions and thoughts better. Paying attention to these symbols can help us understand ourselves more deeply. So, if you have a recurring dream or a strong mental image, it might be worth thinking about what it could mean in your life.
