How does the context that holds dreamer and listener shape how the meaning of the dream is understood?\u00a0 In tonight\u2019s lecture and tomorrow\u2019s workshop, the world of working with dreams will be deconstructed through a lens that integrates perspectives from analytical psychology, relational psychoanalysis, and hermeneutic phenomenology.<\/p>\n<p>These avenues provide us a way of being in relation to dreams, which follows images and emotion while recognizing that the meaning embedded within dreams is paradoxically both discovered and created in the dialogue between the dreamer and the listener.\u00a0 Central to this approach is the dynamism of the ego-self axis, the fulcrum around which dreams revolve.<\/p>\n<p>This lecture will dip into the history of working with dreams in ancient Greek, Hebrew, and Native American sources, as well as Freud\u2019s approach to the dream and Jung\u2019s theory related to understanding dreams.\u00a0 We will touch on recent advances in studies of the brain and applications of AI to dreams and dreaming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How might one enter the mysterious world of dreams?\u00a0 What might we make of the differences in how a dream is experienced when it is happening, when it is told, and when it is heard?\u00a0 What opportunities and limits are there that emerge in the space between the dreamer and the listener?
