But when at last we penetrate to its real meaning, we find ourselves deep in the dreamer's secrets and discover with astonishment that an apparently quite senseless dream is in the highest degree significant, and that in reality it speaks only of important and serious matters.

From the Collected works of C. G. Jung, Vol. 7

This workshop will provide an experiential learning situation. Participants will not be expected to bring their own dreams.  Two hours of dream examples will be analyzed. The dreams presentation will be intermingled with reflection time, note taking, and each participant from the group will have the opportunity to interpret each dream presented. All participants can expect to experience interaction in a non-judgmental environment.
