Ten Basic Assumptions For Dreamworkers
From "Where People Fly and Water Runs Uphill", Jeremy Taylor
- All dreams come in the service of health and wholeness.
- No dream comes just to tell the dreamer what he or she already knows.
- Only the dreamer can say with any certainty what meanings his or
her dream may hold. - The dreamer’s aha of recognition is a function of previously unconscious memory and is the only reliable touchstone of dream work.
- There is no such thing as a dream with only one meaning.
- All dreams speak a universal language of metaphor and symbol.
- All dreams reflect inborn creativity and ability to face and
solve life’s problems. - All dreams reflect society as a whole, as well as the dreamer’s relationship to it.
- Working with dreams regularly improves relationships with friends, lovers, partners, parents, children and others.
- Working with dreams in groups builds community, intimacy, and support and begins to impact on society as a whole.
