where the dream is set
Dreaming of school
Read two ways. Let them disagree, the truth often sits between.
Artemidorus · Oneirocritica
Drawn up, it speaks of To teach in a dream is to be respected for your learning.
Drawn down, it warns of To return to school confused is the warning to revisit a fundamental matter you have skipped.
Jungian · the collective unconscious
Drawn up, it speaks of The school is the place of formation, where one is being shaped. Pleasant school dreams indicate active learning of a real psychic kind.
Drawn down, it warns of Returning unprepared to a school exam is the classic shadow dream of unaddressed insufficiency in some area of life.
When it appears with another
School in company
school + naked
Exposure inside the place of formation. A long-running insufficiency the dreamer has been hiding is being made visible, but also healable.
