Nighttime Messages, Daytime Wisdom
Recently I asked in a Facebook group, “If you had a dream journal guide to understand your dream meanings, what would you want in that guide?” One woman commented how she was confused by Carl Jung concept that every person in her dream was a version of her or something within herself.
