This work was originally written in 2013 as a final paper during training in analytical psychology at the C. G. Jung Institute Zürich. It explores Dionysus from psychological, mythological and cultural perspectives and concludes with dreams, active imagination and symbolic material related to the Dionysian experience. The original structure of the work has been preserved, and the text is being published online gradually in a lightly edited form.
