Publisher's Synopsis
Many psychologists believe that all adults carry within them an "inner child", both a remnant of the child we once were and the spontaneous childlike side of our nature. In this book, Jungian analyst Kathrin Asper shows how an understanding of the symbolism of the image of the child in our dreams can help us make contact with our own inner child. The motif of the child points to new and future possibilities in our lives; it can have religious or spiritual meaning and it can represent our creative potential. Through working with the child in dreams, people can also free themselves from the ongoing pain of psychological wounds received in childhood.
