Dreams for some are meaningless series of sequences whereas few others really ponder over them to try and find out the hidden meaning in them. But is it really possible that dreams have certain meaning or can we find some directions to our life or solutions for our problems through our dreams. Although, the subject of dream interpretation is a topic of debate, many researchers and believers find it a definite possibility that dreams convey important happenings in ones life. One of the firm believers in dreams, who devoted his life in finding the meaning of dreams, is Carl Gustav Jung.
Carl Gustav Jung, was the renowned researcher on dreams who studied under Sigmund Freud. Eventually, the differing views on dreams of both Feud and Jung caused a major rift between them and each went their own ways. However, like Freud, Jung also believed in the existence of the unconscious. Jung firmly believed that archetypes such as the animus, the anima, the shadow and others marked themselves in dreams, as dream symbols or figures. Eventually, the aforesaid figures could take the figure of an old man, a young maiden or a giant crocodile as the condition may be. Every such figure stands for an unconscious attitude that is largely hidden to the conscious mind. Although an integral part of the dreamer’s consciousness, these manifestations were largely self-directed and were professed by the dreamer to be outer personages.
