What do you make of dreams that don’t make sense one bit…is it your subconscious fighting with your conscience (if you are conscious when sleeping that is); regressions of some sort…?
All I know is the majority of my dreams are just plain crazy.

I forget them after 5 minutes.
I started a dream journal for right after I woke up. It started with a few words, “I think I was underwater” but aftter a few weeks I’d be writing 10-20 pages every morning. 5 minutes of remembering your dreams is a really good place to start.
I used to do the same but after a few years I got bored.
Reading volume 12 of Jung’s work, he talks about alchemy and dream analysis. He focuses on the dreams of one person in particular, but I can’t shake the feeling his analysand is putting him on the entire time.
Jung is smart but also pretty damn credulous.
Don’t know if I agree with being credulous…I mean they were based on his scientific studies no…?
He was extremely well read, but I wouldn’t class him a scientific thinker, and most of his followers are even woolier-headed.
The idea of “a collective consciousness” is often interpreted as more than a metaphor, but as a real entity that the mind is somehow accessing.
