Metaphorical imagination is manifested as a person’s ability to independent creative metaphors, creatively interpret complex metaphors, creatively and originally apply existing metaphorical expressions depending on the context of a certain situation. Realizing the connection between the sensual and the rational, the construction of a creative metaphorical image activates the subject’s sensory-perceptual and emotional imagination on a creative level, thereby contributing to a new and deeper understanding of their essence.
