Responses to the Dreams of the World: Page One

Response to Nicole's dream:

Dear Nicole,

Your dream is too complicated for me to try to interpret without all your personal associations to the key elements. There are so many that are clearly personal to you.

Let me guide you so that you can do the analysis.

First, underline the key element or elements in each sentence. Then, make a list of them. Beside each word, list five associations you have with the person, thing, or word.

Think about your present life context. What problems or situations are you thinking about or trying to deal with?

With that in mind, rewrite the dream story substituting the association that feels right for each element.

You should now have a message from the unconscious that addresses your life. It may reflect it or warn you or give you some wisdom.

Since you clearly undestand the significance of dreams, you should do some work on learning to analyze them. Our video series gives you some real tools for this work.

Response to Margo's dream:

You need to do your own personal associations with turtles...the personal associations will control or supercede the more general ones in the dream dictionary of symbols.

From the Dictionary of Mythology, Folklore, and Symbols: "Androgyny, endurance, longevity, safety, slowness. In various mythologies a creator god or world support."

Response to Deb Hadford's dream:

Dear Deb,

Such a sad dream! The man screaming with grief because his daughter is dead..... can you associate this in any way to something going on in your life: Some mature masculine part of yourself is grieving the loss of a young female part? Is there anything feminine, a project or some quality in yourself that has died? If so, a mature masculine part is grieving! Perhaps you should focus on some conscious grieving so that this disturbing stuff is not left in the unconscious.

Response to Åsa Strömbro's dream:

Dear Åsa:

So, behind your ordinary institution is this symbolic university; how might they be different? What do you associate with "computer" and "stairs"? Can you get out via the stairs? There is no way out...in what way might there be "no way out" in the university? The problem with getting out is the chickens and eggs behind the closet doors marked with yellow stickers...What do you make of that? What is hatching in your psyche? Is this hatchery a secret, not out of the closet? What do you associate with "yellow"? Archetypally, yellow is the color of consciousness, of intuition. Seems as if the world outside is too cold for this new life to survive, or at least that is your imagination about the new chicks. How might you bring this new life into the world safely? Then you could leave school?

Response to Amanda's dream:

Dear Amanda:

Go back through your dream and underline the most important elements, or unusual circumstances...like the family on a sloping roof six stories above the ground...and the little girl who is a wooden doll....Would it be unusual for you to be working as a taxi driver? Write down your associations to each of the elements and then substitute the associations for the dream image. For example, if I associate "wild and free" with taxi driver..I reread the first line as I am a "wild and free" driver in a strange town. It seems as if you lose your ability to "drive" when your husband comes aboard? The family seems to be in a very precarious position....too high up...on the roof..What would "on the roof" mean to you? They are certainly not well "grounded"..six stories up? on a slant? They are in a very dangerous position. The little girl is a wooden doll...What do you associate with "doll" ? Generally, dolls are just perfect..Remember how our mothers would say.."be a little doll"..not a real live person, but a model child? Is this dream child a symbol of your own inner child, or of your daughter? or both? Does "keeping her eyes open" refer to needing to stay conscious? You awaken with anxiety about "the husband's" fall...Does this refer to your fears about your own husband or about "the husband" in your own psyche? This family needs to come down to earth..get grounded in reality, as it were. How might you do active imagination with the wooden doll child and find a way to let her become a real-live child? Good luck.

Response to Diane Conrad's dream:

Dear Diane:

That you dreamed of your son twice this week sounds like it is unusual and probably points toward some anxiety about him. What is going on in your everyday life regarding him? What is the "context" of the dream? In what way do you imagine him to be "executed"? Write down some associations with the image of "execution". Is there any reason to believe that your son might actually be in danger? Now make associations to the number "35.7". Is that a meaningful age of your son? of you? An "injection" is something that gets into you, you know...and whatever this substance is is a lethal dose..it changes, transforms "the son" forever. What qualities do you associate with your son? What part of yourself does he symbolize? Numbers in dreams are so mysterious; they seem so very specific and yet they can sometimes just illude our consciousness. And "daughter"? What qualities in yourself does she symbolize? She seems to be so integral in the process.

Response to Jessica's dream:

Dear Jessica:

Your dream reminds me of the Janet Jackson video in which she flies from one great city to another...the Eiffel tower, the pyramids, etc. What would it be like to go to Chicago, to Boston? Have you been to those cities? Your dream seems to keep reminding you to slow down. In what way are you going too fast? I am impressed with your good sense to make yourself stand up in the dream,,,not just float off like a feather. You are young and perhaps full of ideas and fantasies about the world...maybe your dream warns you not to just "skate" over your interest in things, places, like Chicago and Boston. Perhaps you could take them in a little more slowly.

Response to rochelle gagnon's dream:

Dear Rochelle:

Does something "catch on fire" whenever you are with your father? What gets "ignited" between the two of you? What do you associate with your father? with "fire"? with "house"? Can you see how the elements of the dream tell a story? How is this story true in your life at this time? Is your relationship with your father this destructive...burns up your "house" or soul? Or does being with him "fire you up"?

Response to Jill's dream:

Dear Jill:

What does "moving into a smaller house" mean to you? You might think of the "neighbors" as parts of your psyche which are close at hand...available to consciousness. "locking the doors" might symbolize your resistance to some consciousness that wants to be "talked about". What about the "bad man"? Was there any rape of a twelve year old girl in your history or your family's history? Is this symbolic of some feeling of your own femininty being "raped" by a masculine attitude in your matrilineal heritage? Let yourself remember and imagine what trauma might have happened to you, physically and/or psychologically by your grandmother's masculine side or by someone in her family. Listen to the "gossip" your psyche wants you to hear..There might be something you need to know.

Driving through the snow might point to an emotional coldness between you and your husband related to this "bad man" who has done harm to the 12 year old girl...to the budding feminine. Your dream says that the "bad man" is now in the car, so you have the opportunity to become conscious of this force and its harm to you..and free yourself from it. Hoping that you can find a way to include this forgotten or unconscious element so that you can find warmth in your marriage.

Response to Paul McManigal's dream:

Dear Paul:

This man in the oak is talked about in old alchemical texts..He is seen as the spirit Mercurius..He is like the "genie in the bottle"..he is WISE OLD MAN; and you are indeed lucky to have such an advisor. But you must always question him and not let him trick you into "never leaving him". Get him to advise you about life and help you to be more related to life..The tree is a symbol of the Mother archetype and can keep a man too contained in fantasy and spiritual musings. At the same time, you have a very important connection to the wisdom of the ages and to deep spiritual reality through this man in the tree. Make your conversations with him conscious...Talk to him in your waking life..Spend some time each day dialoging with him. Listen to him and write down what he says carefully.

Response to Shane Stein's dream:

Dear Shane:

Yes, your dream might well be an intuition about how the universe operates...Jung wrote about the dream of a 19th century chemist, Kekule, who was researching the molecular structure of benzene when he dreamed of a snake with its tail in its mouth (the age-old uroboros). Out of that dream he theorized that the structure was a closed carbon ring and published his data in the Textbook of Organic Chemistry (1861). The "device" in your dream has a similar structure...Have you drawn it? The light blue haze around it might also be instructive as to your feeling about the "device" as well as point to its luminous quality. Your having oral sex with a woman also focuses on the vulva, which is a closed oval shaped "device"; and you "get your into it" as it were, albeit with your mouth...Might that point toward something oral, like speech? Might you also find yourself substituting science for sex, and vice versa? Might the sexual imagery draw you toward a need to relate to the feminine? The world "soul" is imagined as a woman throughout time and space. Paint the image...both the impersonal "device" and the personal contact.

Response to Jenn's dream:

Dear Jenn:

Your nap experience of not being in your body, as it were, is a common nap experience. It is as if there is a particular dream state that is between waking and sleeping and in which one does not seem in one's body. I don't know the name of the state right now, but it is a common experience.

The dream about your mother drowning and her synchronistic dream are very interesting. Might she have been in some kind of emotionally overwhelming situation at the time (drowning)? What does drowning mean to you? How psychically connected to her are you? We usually try to concretize a dream on first glance. Try to let it speak to you metaphorically...what is drowning a metaphor for to you? What do you associate with your mother? Might those qualities in you be drowning?

Regarding your house dreams: what do you associate with house? House is generally a symbol for the Self...I like the book by Claire Marcus, House As Mirror of the Self. Your houses are empty however. Perhaps you need to furnish your inner life with more material, more furniture...more attention to your inner reality. Perhaps the dreams are inviting you to consider how empty your life might feel? Record your dreams regularly and pay attention to your own personal reactions to the events in your life... Or might the dreams compensate for a life that is too full of external activity...emphasizing the emptiness of your inner house?

I think you would find the first two tapes in our series helpful: The Language of Dreams and The Method. Also look at Women in Women's Dreams.

Response to Kathy Harper's dream:

Dear Kathy:

It would seem to me that a "white out" is very much like a "black out". And when a dream or the memory of it continues for so long, it must mean that in some way you have not integrated its message. Do you remember the next-door trauma being particularly important to you? Perhaps you could write down what you do remember about that period of time in your life...try to feel whatever emotions you were afraid to feel at that time. Wonder what the dream is telling you about the strange events of your father being asleep and then awake. Asleep and awake are metaphors for conscious and unconscious generally. What was your relationship with your father at that time? Did you have any traumatic event with him? Generally I would think such an experience would be your psyche's way of "whiting out" some thought, feeling, or experience which you could not endure at the time. But now you are older and more able to hold the events of your life, so perhaps you could bear to "re-member" whatever emotions were so unbearable when you were a child. One of our tapes is about Men In Women's Dreams; you might find that helpful.

Response to Penny's dream:

Dear Penny:

Next week we are producing a video about Pregnancy and Birth Dreams. Be sure and watch for it. It is always so uncanny when we know something in a dream that we could not ordinarily know: the sex of your baby, for example (even though sonograms now look into the unseen). You must have been very involved in your pregnancies....and in your anxiety about the child and your ability to care for it. The first child is so small..almost a Tom Thumb..such very small or very large babies often symbolize our experience of the Self...the fully formed center at our core...a magical child as it were...This baby gets lost in a cold frying pan in grease...maybe your associations to the image will help you see how you fear losing touch with your to-be-born baby..There is also and old saying about pregnancy "what's in the frying pan?", a metaphor referring to the "cooking up" of a new life with the uterus as frying pan. The second dream has the baby run over by a car...What do you associate with "car"? Car refers generally to our motivation, our energy, our way of getting around...Might you have feared that your baby would get caught under work or high energy stuff in you? I assume both babies and you have fared well.

Response to J.J. Morris's dream:

Dear J. J.:

That you have started recalling your dreams may be a gift from your unconscious to help you through what sounds like a difficult period. Are you feeling depressed? You might want to find some professional help instead of over-drinking. Sometimes the containment of a therapeutic process can really make the difference in one's being able to integrate an important transitional time. Your dream of a former girlfriend might indicate that you are in a place to relate to the feminine side of yourself (perhaps to women as well) in a way that you could not earlier. There is this problem which the dream expresses of "getting together"...symbolizing a problem of integrating the masculine and feminine sides of yourself. What might be going on in your life right now that reminds you of your life situation when you were with this girl? Are you in any similar unconscious patterns?

You will find helpful information in our tapes about the Women in Men's Dreams and the tapes about Relationships. Remember that if alcohol continues to be a problem, AA is perhaps the most helpful source. You can find a Jungian therapist by calling the C. G. Jung Institute in L.A. (310-556-1193) or call your local American Psychological Association and ask for a referral. Good luck!

Response to Karol's dream:

Dear Karol:

How are you like a bookmark? Are you primarily contained in books? What is your association with bookmark, with "books"? You seem to "know" the book like one would an old friend, and we sometimes say that about books. What do you associate with UFOs? ...with the lady in the quilted green polyester housecoat? ...with the ranch style house? There is such a lack of life and color in the spaceship. In what way might you be unconsciously living in a "spacey" kind of way? Or might the alien ship be a compensation for too much involvement in the mundane stuff of life? It is as if you can "see into" the house from the space ship....might you long to see into whatever that house means to you? There is a sense of a coming change in attitude in the anticipatory air at the end of the dream. How might you be assertive in initiating some newness in your life...perhaps instead of wishfully waiting for change? Or how might you better prepare for anticipated change? How can you begin to experience yourself as a "person" with a "bookmark", instead of seeing yourself only as a "bookmark"?

Tape II in our series might be interesting to you as a way of becoming more of an active agent in your dreamlife.

Response to Alisa Ruby's dream:

Dear Alisa:

I think you will find our video about snakes very helpful. In the meantime, what are your associations to "snakes"? to rattlesnake, in particular? to "pitchforks"? Rattlesnakes are as poisonous as fear...and as deadly. You have stopped the snake with the pitchfork, but you were bitten. The image of your boyfriend sucking out the venom is interesting. Sucking is an archetypal form of healing. Shamans suck the poison of the evil spirit out of persons...the American Indians often use sucking in healing rituals. We also suck a wound instinctively. What do you associate with your boyfriend? What power in you can take away the poison? That you feel proud of yourself would indicate that you feel a great deal of accomplishment in conquering the snakes, as indeed one would. On the other hand, if you are someone who already has too much power, you may be missing the vitality and renewal that the initiation of the snake bite could bring.

Response to Lane's dream:

Dear Lane

Such an exquisite fairy tale seems to call for a fairy tale answer....but I can't think of an appropriate one right now. But there does seem to be a moral to the story...the maiden and the prince have to be separated before the chase can end...and the maiden and the evil mother be united...before the prince can become a silver rooster and pursue her.... Perhaps that would imply that you need to separate from your idealized image of man (the prince..prince charming?) in order to experience the protective wings of the great mother. Silver is the color of the moon..and the feminine principle..as well as silver coins. What is your relationship with "the mother"..your own mother and the mother principle in yourself? Does your own identity with mothering interfere with your relationship with men? What is your relationship with your own mother? Sometimes we project the negative side of mothering onto the mother-in-law and have to make peace with those dark qualities in the mother. I don't know whether the fairy tale form is a compensation for a too rational approach to live or a reflection of a too "fairy tale" set of expectations in yourself? You might read AMOR AND PSYCHE by Eric Neumann which is a tale about a woman's search for self and in which the "prince" flies off also. Look at the tape in our series, Men in Womens' Dreams also.

The duck, the hen and the rooster are all very earthy, domestic birds...which have been "silverized"...moon-thinking? What do these birds mean to you, what are your associations with each of them? Good Luck! What if you write a fairy tale in response to the dream?

Response to Elisabeth Hurley's dream:

Dear Elisabeth

What have you imagined in response to the dream thus far? Some dreams do seem to last a lifetime. That you have held it for so long makes it a pivotal dream for you. So do some careful personal associations (see Tape I in our series) and then some active imagination with the wonderful archetypal images in the dream. Write about your personal feelings and experiences with : Prague, mouse, lion, Egypt, the mother woman, the Nile, tidal wave, light blue, the moone and the sun. Now that is a lot of work.

That the sun is going down and the moon is coming up would make me wonder if you are (were) not in a psychic space in which you needed to move more toward a more feminine approach to your life and be less sun-consciousness in your orientation. They are the two great lights..or symbols of particular kinds of consciousness. the sphinx, as you probably is a combination of a woman's head and a lion's body...Why would you need to be contained in this powerful archetypal image? Might a connection to the feminine principle give you mlore power..even in an oracular way? What looks at first to be a mouse, turns out to be a lion..and then a sphinx which has "swallowed" you. You seem to find peace and rest in the mother-type woman's room...she gives you the key...the answer as it were to the overwhelm you might have been feeling at the time (the tidal wave)..You seem so much at rest in the wisdom of the feminine. Do some active imagination with the sphinx. See Tape II of our series.

Response to Butterfly's dream:

Dear Butterfly:
What a beautiful dream! What qualities do you associate with your cousin? Substitute those associations with "my cousin" in the dream and see what qualities you need to "make love to" in yourself. See our tape on WOMEN IN WOMENS DREAMS.

Response to Tina's dream:

Dear Tina:
What a touching dream! You are so young and perhaps terrified of the kind of negative judgement you would encounter if you got pregnant. In your dream you imagine actually delivering a baby...and it is both wonderful and mystical and disgustingly bloody real...placenta and all. There is a sense of the baby being so beautiful and full of light...and I wonder if its beauty is to compensate for your feeling that nothing good could come out of you...and here you have this extraordinary baby! Are you pregnant? How would your aunt feel about your being pregnant? You go into the forest to have the baby...is that into the deep unconscious? The dimly -lit pink room seems so feminine...I wonder if you have some unconscious assumption that having a baby would make you feel like a real "pink" girl? Perhaps the dream delivery symbolizes your conflict between the idealization of what it would be like to give birth and the reality of having a baby...you have trouble keeping up with it at work and so on. What is the "glass barrier" between you and your co-worker? Glass might also have to do with a certain kind of idealized image of how things should be. Do you know about the glass menegarie in Tennessee Williams play? Within the next six months, Dreamweavers will release a new tape on PREGNANCY AND BIRTH. Be sure and watch for it.

Response to Ronnie's dream:

Good for you! Sounds like you have launched your "baby"! Just when one feels as if she can really let herself get "in the water" of her life and writing may feel like play sometimes; but then the fears come..maybe like big old "gorillas" to threaten the new life. I wonder if your ego's attachment to the outcome of having some work accepted feels like gorillas intruding. To work the dream, write down whatever associations you have to "my baby", "gorilla", and "bedroom". What do you do in that room? What do you know about gorillas? Jung saw the gorilla as "natural man", the instinctive, animal side of us. But our ego demands also sometimes take animal-like proportions of power, greed, and hunger. It is interesting that you are so able to relate to that energy in your dream. Is that an imagination about some strength in yourself that you have not yet known? Is that capacity to take care of yourself and your creations an accomplished fact for you? Often we see ourselves behaving in a dream in ways we have heeretofore not known and the dream allows us to enlarge our sense of self. There is some information about animals in dreams in Tape II. I think you would also find useful information about wuch a dream in Tape IV, Men in Women's Dreams. Congratulations!

Response to Sheri Rush's dream:

Dear Sheri:
Maybe it is synchronistic also that I had not responded to your dream before we received your friend's dream. Yes, I would say that is synchronistic...now what does it mean to you that the two of you have a synchronistic experience? On the one hand it could be a sense of heightened awareness of each other, on the other hand it could be an unconscious merger between you. Jung talked about synchroniscity as "acausal reality"...coincidences which are just so. In the psyche time and space are blurred... one can be in a house that is a combination of childhood home and futuristic planned home...be both a child and an adult at the same time. I am most struck in your dream by the goddess-like, maybe wise-old-woman who says "it is done", as if this accident is a fait au compli. It is as if your life in the green van with your friend withstands the "crash" of all the enormous energy carriers around you and your parents' home. I wonder what your realtionship with your parents' home is? Is it time for it to be done with? Is there a great conflict that is inevitable? What qualities do you associate with this "best friend"? Might this dream signal a necessary crash of your connection to your parents' values, home, energy?

Soon we will publish a video about cars, etc., in dreams. But in the meantime, check out Tapes I and II; you will find some general guidelines for working with your dreams.

Response to Mark A. Spurlock's dream:

Why a nun and not a priest? Write down five or six associations you have with "nun" and "priest". How are you like a nun at this specific time in your life? What is going on in your conscious life in which you may be acting like what you wrote down as your associations with "nun"? The nun has a dagger...What do you associate with dagger? an instrument with which to kill? an instrument with which to fight? an instrument for opening or penetrating something? The basement is usually the symbol of the unconscious in our dreams..the place where things are stored and kept underground. You mentioned that your fiance had just left on the morning that you had this dream; might the dream speak to some conflict in you about your religious training and your instinctive life, your sexuality? What is the "dark force" which you meet in the basement? You know instinctively, you say, that it will not hurt you, that you will be less fragmented if you face it, let it in. And yet it seems so foreboding. The psyche pushes us toward wholeness, toward accepting our sexuality as well as our spirituality. Often we ignore, or repress one or the other of these energies and relegate the other to the "basement" as it were. Then it comes at us like a dark, evil force threatening our stability. Perhaps you can examine these opposites in yourself. Remember that feelings are not behavior. One can own certain feelings and impulses and still have a choice about one's actions. It is so hard to struggle between the opposites and find a right relationship to spirit and body. Your bodily reaction in the dream to the "dark force" indicates that you have enormous affect when meeting this energy. Hold that affect, feeling, and ask the force what it wants of you. The cross beside you is a symbol of the tension of the opposites. The stories of Christ tell of him as someone who could hold that tension and transcend it. Could you write a dialogue between the nun and the dark force? You will find further help about this struggle in our newest tape, The Alchemy of Relationship as well as general information about working with your dreams as a part of your spiritual practice in Tapes I and II.

Response to Jill Downey's dream:

What a frightening dream! First of all, do you have any personal experiences, memories or particular feelings about "a deep body of water"? Substitute these associations in the dream and you will see what you may have fallen into. "A deep body of water " generally (archetypally) symbolizes the Unconscious itself. From the archetypal viewpoint, you might ask: in what way in my life right now have I fallen (or been pushed) into the Unconscious? The other problem in the dream is that you cannot find "the bottom". We use metaphors like: bottoming out, hit bottom. Since you cannot find a bottom, it is as if you cannot find your baseline . . what grounds you. Consider what your "bottom line" might be. What do you know without a doubt? There ar e times in our lives when there is no "bottom", when there is nothing which seems to hold us. Remembering and recording one's dreams is a slow and tedious process, but eventually one begins to find one's own ground of Being, one's own "bottom". Keep it up!

You will find specific steps for finding meaning in this and other dreams in Tapes I and II. You might also enjoy Women in Women's Dreams, since water has to do with feminine consciousness as well.

Response to Jennifer's dream:

I'm struck by your feeling about the ants . . their "repulsive harmlessness". You might explore your feelings about harmlessness . . lack of aggression . . , and about natural beings like ants. Underline the significant elements in the dream, i.e.: ants, brother, spider. Write your personal associations to each of these dream images. What is your experience, your memory, your feeling about "ants", "brother", "spider"? Now substitute these associations for the dream images. Does any sense of understan ding about yourself emerge? Examine your life context. What is going on in your life right now that this dream might speak to?

Archetypally, ants and spiders are "just so" in nature and they represent specific and important feminine qualities. Ants clean up messes, quietly and orderly. Spiders weave webs of beauty, intrigue, and purpose. They both sting!! Read Eric Neumann's book Amor and Psyche, an interpretation of the myth, showing a women's journey toward consciousness.

You will find Tape III, Women in Women's Dreams, to be helpful in exploring issues of particular concern to women seeking consciousness. Many women find it very difficult to value themselves and their own way of knowing and bein g in a culture which is so masculinely oriented as ours. The feminine principle, whether woman, ant, or spider, is denigrated and despised. In our efforts to find recognition and value, we often join the cultural dominant and "kill off" (as in your dream ) our deepest instinctual roots.

Hoping you find a satisfying and life-giving relationship to your ant and spider nature.

Response to Heather Lynn Kyle's dream:

The basic conflict in your dream seems to be between feelings of fear and feelings of safety. What are your personal associations to the "rough river" and "many sharp rocks"? What are your feelings, your memories, your experiences about such a river? W hat do you actually feel about your husband and his ability to protect you, or your need for his protection? Metaphorically we speak of the "river of life". Might you have some fears about "jumping into" life and hopes that your husband will make it saf e for you?

Such a dream might help you develop more confidence in yourself as you ponder your fears and your own competencies to deal with "rough waters". Writing your associations and feelings about the river and about yourself and your husband will enlarge your co nsciousness about yourself and your expectations as well as invite more dreams for your development. Dreamwork is slow and hard and sometimes frightening like your river, but it can also become an "inner husband" who embraces you and carries you safely t hrough life, on whom you can always depend.

There is an abundance of information you might find helpful in Tape IV, Men in Women's Dreams. It is so easy for us to project our inner masculine (the men in your dreams) onto our husbands and then be angry and disappointed whe n they do not live up to our expectations. Through relating to your dreams, you can develop a relationship with your own inner husband and free your marriage for loving and respectful interaction.

Response to Edith Regina's dream:

Your imagination in the dream is an impressive warning and planning system. Do you often prepare for danger by imagining consequences and preparations to avert them? What personal associations do you make to "husband", "dogs", "white wooden house", "ris ing water"? What is the context of the dream? What is going on in your waking life at this time? What threatens to "flood" you? Archetypally, "water" is the Unconscious itself; it is feeling, emotion; it is the feminine principal. Also, dogs are guid es for souls in archetypal language. The dream says "a huge wall of water" is coming . . . you are preparing for a flood of feeling, an onslaught of emotion which you have been repressing so that it has accumulated in a "huge wall". It threatens your de epest instinctive connection (the dogs).

Your pain and grief about the dogs can put you in touch with your emotions. You might hold your dogs closely and tell them about your feelings. You might write or paint about what you are feeling. Some people can release emotion when confiding in a fri end. Many tears can dissolve the wall and avert the flood which threatens you.

Such a warning dream is a gift of wisdom to a dreamer who pays attention. The unconscious becomes a trusted daily guide.
