Mindset

Soul vs. Mind analysis

When in a dream circle, we refrain from finding definitive meaning of dream symbols and analyzing dreams with our minds.

Dream dictionaries and 1-1 symbols interpretations are not part of this process. We understand that meaning can only be found by each dreamer themselves, and a meaning of a symbol differs from person to person. We give and hold space for the mystery to arise.

Patience

It might take weeks, months, or years for the meaning of the dream to reveal itself. Dream practitioners continuously find new meanings as life goes on.

Sometimes our mind thinks it arrived at the answer, but if we keep our hearts open, the mystery keeps unfolding. We have patience for this process and understand that this is a lifelong pursuit. 

No judgment

Dreams speak to us in primal symbols that often involve blood, violence, sex, pain... These elements are intrinsically human and live deep in our psyche, often suppressed by our culture, moral values, and religion.

We don't judge our own or other people's dream content as good or bad, moral or immoral. Such distinctions are the judgments of the mind that are necessary for our functioning in a society, but if we want to dive deep into the mysteries of our psyche, we need to keep an open mind to all symbols that are trying to emerge.
