| | Creative Impulse in Dreams |
 | | Sometimes this creative energy is clearly visible to the dreamer, but more often it is hidden by the emotional experience of the dream. |
 | | This imagery manifests one of the deepest truths about the archetypal energy of the shadow: The conventional waking consciousness views all that is not yet clearly manifested and understood in the world of the ego as nasty, ugly, frightening, dark, and dangerous. |
 | | Yet the deep unconscious contains the things the waking unconscious desires and longs for the most (the energies of love, creativity, and communion with the divine, to name a few); strip away the dark and frightening mask of the shadow, and that which is devoutly wished for and sought is revealed. |
