In our search for meaning and truth, we often think we want our lives bathed in the noontime light of certainty. However, we soon discover that when the light is lower in intensity; that is, when uncertainty begins to manifest its all-pervasive presence, then the evening glow of imagination and myth is able to become more active. During these times, the deeper, more subtle hues of spiritual insight are finally able to reveal themselves in all of their beauty. As James Hillman so aptly puts it: "Our imaginative recognition animates the world and returns it to Soul."
