12: Dreams Can Change Your Perspective (and Your Life)

Dreams from this episode: * Unable to get through a keyhole window to explore the lighthouse * 4 leaves sprout from a finger wound * Saving yourself, leaving others to drown, in order to gain a spiritual reward * Delivering a baby, keeping it healthy, and talking to a disapproving boss Themes from this episode: * The unconscious often sends us dreams in order to change our perspective somehow. These shifts in perspective can transform our lives as we allow the dreams to work on us and through us. Lighthouses can represent places at the border of conscious and unconscious (land and sea) where we can gain perspective and do inner work. Plants sprouting from wounds represent times of fertility and growth. Sometimes we must stop saving others in order to save ourselves. Symbols of the Self in dreams include wise old men, divine children, circles, diamonds, cubes, or crystals. Giving birth in a dream likely represents birth of a new project, direction, or part of yourself.
