Carl Jung developed his own theory of dreams, diverging from Freud's approach. He introduced concepts like the collective unconscious and archetypes, suggesting dreams reflect universal human experiences and symbols. His work emphasized the spiritual and transformative potential of dreams.

Dreams are expressions of the psyche's self-regulatory system. Symbols in dreams serve as bridges between conscious and unconscious. Dreams aid in the process of self integration.

Water often symbolizes emotions and the unconscious mind. The state of the water in a dream (calm, turbulent, murky, or clear) can reflect the dreamer's emotional state.

Calm water: Inner peace and harmony.

Rough waves: Emotional turmoil or unresolved stress.

Snakes represent transformation and renewal. It can also symbolize fear or repressed energy. In some cultures, snakes signify wisdom and healing.

A shedding snake: Rebirth or personal growth.

An attacking snake: Unacknowledged fears or inner conflict.

Houses often represent the self, with different parts symbolizing different aspects of life. For example, the foundation may reflect the unconscious, while the upper floors relate to rational thought or spiritual pursuits.

A dilapidated house: Areas of life needing attention or care.

A bright, well-maintained house: A healthy psychological state.

Have you ever dreamt of these symbols? What do they mean to you?
