These very real beings dwell in a realm between matter (nature)\u003cbr\u003e and mind (reason), appearing in dreams, intuitive callings, visions, feelings, \u003cbr\u003e and sometimes frightening events. Mary offers her own intimate experiences\u003cbr\u003e through which she explores and engages these figures, showing her readers\u003cbr\u003e how to host these beings as one would host invited guests. From the work of\u003cbr\u003e philosopher Henry Corbin, psychiatrist C. G. Jung, and psychologist James\u003cbr\u003e Hillman, we know that the name of the realm in which these figures dwell is\u003cbr\u003e the \u003cem\u003emundus imaginalis\u003c\/em\u003e, or the imaginal world.
