This elegant little dream is a classic eternal
archetype. The little girl is the
questing Anima, the one who wants to know the Self. It is given the task of figuring what is inside
a square of stones. The stone square
represents the body which is insentient matter.
She gets the answer on the second attempt: FLOWERS!,
meaning the Self. This dream is a
message from the Self saying that the wound that opened when I fell out
of love has been healed. It is a
symbol of life, regeneration, rebirth, joy, beauty, and wholeness. Like
the girl in the dream I dreamt it twice because I couldn’t figure it out
the first time.
