Know Thyself #97

Know Thyself through DREAMS:

Are you the kind of person why remembers their dreams? I was told as a kid that you can remember your dreams in the morning until you touch/rub your head and the best thing you can do is immediately write down what you remember. Per Wikipedia: Freud believed dreams were the window to the unconscious mind; ‘serving as a means to fulfill repressed wishes and desires. …containing both manifest content (the literal storyline) and latent content (the hidden psychological meaning) that can be interpreted to gain insight into a person’s inner thoughts and conflicts. I have recurring nightmares and dreams. In the nightmares I’m walking on a college campus when a fellow classmate asks me where I was for the final exam that has now concluded. From here there is racing across a confusing campus, trying to find a classroom whose number and location have eluded me, I cannot remember my locker combination, and sometimes find myself not wearing any clothes. This can easily be interpreted as an anxiety dream and often happen before I’m to do something important.

My recurring dream involves me in a wide-open field. When I run really fast I can jump into the air and ‘fly’. Maybe flying isn’t the right verb, it is more like bounding. The faster I run, the further and higher I soar horizontally with arms outstretched like wings on an airplane. I control the speed, altitude, spins, turns, dips and dives before gently returning my feet to the ground where, still running, I can leap once again into the air. I float controlling my altitude, trajectory, and speed. It feels amazing….free. I think these are my potential dreams, and oddly enough, they often happen before I’m to do something important.
