Jung and Olde: The Collective Unconscious

I have been reading about Jungian psychology, specifically about the Puer Aeternus archetype. Along with that, I have been scrying the Ogham fews. My reading about the archetypes has affected what I see during scrying, and as a side effect of that, I have been having many more dreams than I normally have, or at least, remembering more of my dreams.

I now know that I am getting in touch with my anima, which has been enlightening. In addition to the normal note-taking after scrying, I have been writing down my dreams right after waking.

Marie-Louise von Franz, a student of Jung’s, has some good books about dream interpretation, if you don’t already know that. In addition to The Problem of the Puer Aeternus book I mentioned above, there is also a great book on dream interpretation she did together with Fraser Boa called Way of the Dream.
