ABSTRACT

Social dreaming involves the unconscious mind, its processes, and how dream thinking and images can be transformed into consciousness. Most people believe that they manage themselves in their various roles by exclusively using their consciousness and finite knowledge. Whereas the conscious mind operates on the basis of logical, repeated patterns of thinking, the unconscious mind uses a totally different logic by working on analogues. The logic of the unconscious, or infinite, is based on symmetry. It tends to fuse and unite everything in an oneness that is limitless. In contradistinction, the scientific thinking of everyday life works within a framework of distinguishing things. Unconscious vision provides us with subliminal perceptions of the reality in which we have our being and existence, and in which we make a living. Dreaming is the human way to access the unconscious, with its unique logic.
