Dreams can excite, frustrate, overwhelm and disgust us. One of the ways that Jung approached their mystery was as a "reaction to our conscious attitude in the same way that the body reacts when we overeat or do not eat enough . . ." A dreamer's idea about her own dream often provides little help because it repeats her conscious perspective. Paradoxically, without the dreamer's associations, a dream's information can be missed. In this workshop, we will delve into books, film, and some drawing, with particular attention to the ways dreams can invite us to change.
