Psychology’s dialogue with different knowledge areas is extremely relevant in the investigation of psychic functioning. Understanding that the psyche manifests itself through symbolic expressions, and once the arts, especially poetic literature, appear as a rich field for this kind of manifestations, it is important for Psychology to maintain contact with artistic expressions. Thus, based on the theoretical framework of Analytical Psychology, this research took the poetic work of the writer Gioconda Belli as its object of study with the aim to understand the woman’s images presented in the author`s poems collection, “Woman’s eye”, published in Brazil in 2012. A qualitative research based on the Jungian paradigm was chosen, from which it was adopted as a method the archetypal symbolic analysis, that enabled the approach of the meaning of the poem’s symbolic images. Therefore, it was applied the process of symbolic amplification, which aims to expand the images, taking them as expressions of typical themes, that is, recurrent themes in different human contexts and times. By expanding the images, it was intended to translate the profound meanings they hold for the human soul. The results of the analysis showed that the images of women in Belli's poems reveal the attempt to overcome a patriarchal dynamic crystallized in consciousness, whose tyranny falls on what is feminine and, therefore, on women. In this way, the images draw the vicissitudes of the woman who seeks freedom in the exercise of her psychic totality, resuming the body experience and the intuitive emotion. Thus, aspects of the archetypal feminine gain light, opposing to the darkness of the unconscious, to which their existence is relegated in the patriarchal dynamics
