520			_aThere couldn't be a better way to describe the significance and guiding principle of The Book of Symbols: Reflections on Archetypal Images than with these words by Meister Eckhart: “When the soul wants to experience something she throws out an image in front of her and then steps into it." It is an evocation of the image as a threshold leading to new dimensions of meaning. Symbolic images are more than data; they are vital seeds, living carriers of possibility. Eckhart's words also explain why a book of images matters in a world as chaotic and complex as our own.
