This article aimed to establish a relationship between the images of the “Splendor Solis”, the alchemical treatise, more specifically of the figure we call “dismemberment", and the subjective experience derived from the same reflection, thus reinforcing the relevance of the contact of the analyst in formation with the alchemical images. The proposed activity took place during the historical period marked by the pandemic of Covid 19 and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the process and the reflections that it has originated. The main references for the study were the writings of Edward Edinger and C. G. Jung, that served as contour and continent for the images and helped to objectively sustain the guiding thread of this author's subjective experience.
