15: More Animals in Dreams

About this Episode

Dreams from this episode:

  • Rats in the basement and in the shower
  • A large white owl wants attention, then attacks
  • A huge bird and a knight in a birdcage

Themes from this episode:

  • Rats are earthy, instinctual, can squeeze into nooks and crannies where others can't go, and can survive on scraps and things that others can't eat. They often represent that instinctual, survivor part of your psyche.
  • White owls can represent spiritual wisdom and intelligence, and because they are nighttime creatures, they are more closely related to the unconscious. They are also predators, so can represent a part of you with wisdom and fierce energy.
  • When you work with a dream over time, you may see it start to change. For example, in Stephanie's dream, eventually the birdcage disappeared, the bird came back to life, and the cave became a tunnel showing the way out.
