Night is a time for dreaming.  It is the time when we journey into a vast subterranean realm filled with strange visions and populated by figures of great beauty and unspeakable terror.  It is a journey that -- even in our darkest nightmares -- is life-giving and soul-creating.  Dream time is the time when the deeper psyche speaks to us, bringing wisdom and balance.

 

"At first we cannot see beyond the path that
leads downward to dark and hateful things
-- but no light or beauty will ever come
from the person who cannot bear this sight.
Light is always born of darkness,
and the sun never yet stood still in heaven
to satisfy man's longing or to still his fears."

-- C. G. Jung
