The anima experience brings us face to face with the enigma of soul.  So, to continue the previous post:

“Confrontation with the anima, or for that matter of any unconscious autonomous complex or drive, requires awareness of the nature of its autonomous expectations and personal response patterns.  It requires the establishment of a relationship to the complex as an autonomous entity like an inner “Thou,” allowing for and consciously adapting to its urges and needs, channeling its impulses whenever and wherever possible into expressions compatible with external reality and the ethical dictates of ones innermost conscience.” Edward Whitmont, The Symbolic Quest, pg. 197

Sound a bit crazy? Relating to an inner Thou and expecting a response? Just a tad…
