Soul: here I come

Some days, I am amazed at how intricately our (my) unconscious works to tell us its story.  My dreams which I mentioned yesterday involved some symbols which may be  pointing to my next step in anchoring my relationship to my soul.  What a concept.  I hardly know how to grasp the meaning of that.  Relationship to my soul:  who could ask for anything more.  Isn't that what we are all looking for, and there is the path revealed to me through a series of dreams which I haven't understood at all.  Hint:  in para 402, Jung says:  "Displacement and overlapping of images would be quite impossible if there did not exist between them an essential similarity of substance, a homoousia.  Father, mother, and son are of the same substance, and what is said of one is largely true of the other."  
My dreams have had overlapping images as well as references to grand son, son and therefore mother and grand mother.  More to come.

Dreams

Aha.  At last, I had three dreams last night which I could recall upon waking.  Me and my unconscious have been out of touch lately.  My active life has been very good:  in spite of the economy which leaves something to be desired to say the least.  My partner and I have taken a new lease on life which has been rewarding.  Also our Jung classes started up on Saturday so we are reading with renewed interest.  I have also been knitting again which is always a challenge.  Even though I enjoy doing it, some stitches in my work now I have never heard of so I have had to rip out some projects several times until I can learn how to do it.
My dreams last night were about mending relationships.  Some unknown person was calling couples to the front and renewing their vows.  A second dream involved discussions of what  makes a relationship work.  Amazing.  I am always surprised at the wisdom in our dreams, and now more of my clients are getting interested in dream work.   That too is very satisfying.
