Reading 📖 Carl Jung(1921) Theory of Dreams.

You know everyday I ask myself why? To literally everything? With naïveté, if I receive an answer I am enlightened, if I do not, I ask myself another day.

People say “ instead of asking yourself “why” ask yourself, “what is it that I am learning from this?”

I answer again “if you do not know why , how can you ask what you learn from what you do not know, or have not learned?”

Then Jesus answers, you are very wise and very understanding of the spiritual journey in life that is of a oneself to the Lord Gods invisible umbilical cord that no man can sever only he.

The world has many insights into what they believe to be eternity, with different interpretations and different Gods, but they all know that they ultimately have this connection and yet seek to hide from the truth of the word, which is recorded from the beginning of the world..”I Am Love “ this has been written and taught that Love has to have boundaries, certain connections proposed by others, and has been left to the division of connection as becoming one that this new form of Love comes with a contract.

The ego can be sinful and reveal many secrets of a person when ‘regressed’ it seeks to give it to you as a power of importance, it leads to the fall of basic principles to that of believing to know all that there is to know and understanding of what and why man is on earth.

They seek the knowledge of truth but become ensnared by the smoke screen of darkness that engulfed them and ensnare them, which they then discover themselves and we are here to receive them back into the fold.

According to Carl Jung 1921, the ego represents the conscious mind as it comprises the thoughts, memories, and emotions a person is aware of. The ego is largely responsible for feelings of identity and continuity.

Everything of which I know, but of which I am not at the moment thinking; everything of which I was once conscious but have now forgotten; everything perceived by my senses, but not noted by my conscious mind; everything which, involuntarily and without paying attention to it, I feel, think, remember, want, and do; all the future things which are taking shape in me and will sometime come to consciousness; all this is the content of the unconscious this all will like Carl Jung wrote come to the surface which he describes as ego, the ego he describes is the consciousness that we have subconsciously created.

This is where I say the ego is sin.

The collective unconscious consists of pre-existent forms, or archetypes, which can surface in consciousness in the form of dreams, or visions or feelings, and are expressed in our culture, art, religion, and symbolic experiences.

These archetypes are universal symbols and themes that are shared across all human cultures and epochs. Some examples of these archetypes include the Mother, the Hero, the Child, the Wise old man, the Trickster, and so on. Each archetype represents common aspects of human experience.

Every night, a person can have around five episodes of dreams, and they can last between 15 to 40 minutes. Dream experts describe dreams as a mirror of the fundamental patterns of human behavior – they reflect who we are, what we believe in, and what we need. The meanings of common dreams are not black and white; they are presented metaphorically. Analyzing dream symbols and placing significance has become a popular source of entertainment and self-reflection

This is all the collective experience of studying a person. Written and composed by a professional man delving into what he believes the unconscious mind and then when awake we try to make sense of what was a dream and interpret it, like David interpreted the kings ‘dreams’ as they were so disturbing.

David was a ‘slave to the king’ after explaining one of his dreams as the King Nebuchadnezzar had lots of disturbing dreams, he threw David and his men into the blazing fire as he did not like one interpretation of a dream. They did not die. Why? Well this posses a lot of questions doesn’t it? Nevertheless this book has had a profound effect in my opinion of the ego.
