The author uses a synchronistic event that occurred in a session with a patient to examine both the personal and archetypal symbolism of the transference/countertransference relationship. The archetypal images of the trickster and the dog are important in understanding the meaning of the event, and the author draws from these amplifications an understanding of how countertransference elements temporarily intruded upon the relationship. On the basis of the symbolism of the synchronistic occurrence, the author then discusses the rectification of these countertransference interventions and the results of such rectification with the patient
