From time to time, similar or
the same situation, person,
symbol, colour or other motif
appears in our dreams. These
are called ‘recurrent’ dreams
and occur in order to bring
something important from
the unconscious dream state
into our conscious awareness.
Carl Jung considered recurring
dreams were an attempt to resolve a problem and suggested they assisted the ‘integration of the psyche’. If we keep a dream diary, or tell someone about our dreams, we will keep track of these special aspects which will keep cropping up in our dreams until we realize what they mean and change our perspective.
