There is a prejudice that analysis is the art of letting out the unconscious, like opening the cages in a zoo. That is part of analysis, but it must not be done in an irresponsible and foolish way. This is only the preparatory part. The main analysis is what to do things that have emerged from the unconscious. One must see what the underlying trend is--what the will of God is. You are damned if you don't follow it. It will ruin your life, your health. You have sold part of your soul, or have lost it. C.G. Jung Speaking, p. 361
