That's funny. Years ago, when I jumped headfirst into the writings of
Jung, I too began to dream vividly in obviously archetypal terms.
Brains are funny things. I'm sure many on this list have read novels
written in archaic style, or some other text which forced
brain-realignment in order to muddle through, only later to find
yourself dreaming or daydreaming in that new language.
