"植物が花を咲かせるように、精神はシンボルを創り出す"
— Carl Jung

Simplified Meaning:
Just like a plant naturally grows flowers, our mind naturally creates symbols to express thoughts and feelings. For example, think about how we use a heart to symbolize love. We don't need to be taught this; it feels obvious and natural because our mind creates these connections on its own. These symbols help us communicate complex ideas and emotions in a simple way. Understanding this can help us pay more attention to the symbols we see in our dreams or art because they can tell us a lot about our inner thoughts and feelings. By noticing these symbols, we can learn more about ourselves and how we think.
