A dream uses an imagistic language we can decipher. This language is universal, the same as used in myths from stone-age cultures. A dream shows us the next possible step in our developing personality. It warns us if we are going astray, encourages us if we need it, or offers penetrating insights into our confusion.

This class should be fun. We will work together each week to interpret a dream knowing only the dream text, and the dreamer’s age and gender identity. Then we will test our interpretation against what else the bringer of the dream can tell us about the dreamer. Each week you will learn more about the technique of interpretation that began with Jung and von Franz, was brought to New York by Edward Whitmont, and that this instructor has further developed. We will not work with class members’ dreams. Please bring a dream, with permission, from a family member or friend.
