Dreams: Your Carrot on a Stick

Jump to Comments

Can’t understand that recent dream?

“All I can do is share my dream about your dream – fortunately, when we do this, something good almost always comes of it… I have noticed that dreams are as simple or as complicated as the dreamer is himself, only they are always a little bit ahead of the dreamer’s consciousness. I do not understand my own dreams any better than any of you, for they are always somewhat beyond my grasp and I have the same trouble with them as anyone who knows nothing about dream interpretation. Knowledge is no advantage when it is a matter of one’s own dreams.”

- Carl G. Jung

Always drawing you further along, like a carrot on a stick, your nightly dreams are wanting to be chased, caught, peeled, and eaten. Just as carrots improve the vision of your waking life, dreams are like these orange roots helping you peer backwards, into your mind.
