will show you
where you are
and
where you are going.
They
reveal
your
destiny.
just as we all are gypsies of a sort in this life - in this world, so, too, we are in that other world - the dream world - the place where we are free to travel to places known or places unknown - free to travel far and wide - travel without fear - without trepidation - because just as we individually create our reality world, so do we each create our dream world -
Jung, on dreams, in his "ubergang":
a small hidden door to the most deep hidden and secret corners of the psyche, an entrance to the cosmic night, which was the psyche before there was any trace of an ‘ego’-consciousness:
and what will remain the psyche, no matter how far our ‘ego’-consciousness might stretch itself…
all consciousness acts to divide, but in our dreams we take the form of a more universal, true and eternal man who wanders through the darkness of the primal night.
There he is still the whole man, and this wholeness is in him, not distinguishable from nature and devoid of any ego-consciousness.
From this all unifying depth the dream arises; no matter how childish, grotesque or immoral the dream might be."

Jung. You gotta love the man. The Red Book is selling for a mere (cough) $105 on amazon.
hi trish - yes - can't get much better than him! oh, gee, and only $105 - i'll pick up 5 or 6 - or wait till the price gets reduced a bit :)
have a great remainder of the day, lady! and thanks for coming by!
Very timely, for me. Thanks. -J
oh, hello there - well, that's what navigators are for - to show the way - in time - glad you liked - thanks so much for coming by and leaving a note - have a great day!
robert, i'm so sorry - i thought i had responded already but see i had not - since childhood one of my all time favorite tactile experiences is that of being barefoot - for me there is just a physical connection to the earth - and to myself - that is otherwise not possible - the result is, of course, with that "connection" the way to our "destiny" is much easier - don't you think?
