Carl Jung’s investigation into dreaming and the collective unconscious gave us the concept of archetypes, or universal patterns within the psyche. Jung described one particular archetype, as the Self, since it appeared to embrace the totality of a person’s conscious and unconscious being, even calling the Self as similar to “the God within us.”
Can lucid dreamers, consciously aware of dreaming while in the dream state, actually encounter something like the Self? Or might they meet other archetypal energies while aware within the dream? Lucid dreaming may offer each person a direct path to explore Jung’s ideas from the inside, opening a connection to the beauty, wisdom and guidance found within the unconscious psyche.
Lucid dreaming expert and author Robert Waggoner draws on more than 1,000 of his own lucid dreams to explore how archetypal figures and the Self can be encountered within the lucid dream state. He also debunks a common misconception — that lucid dreamers simply “control” their dreams — showing instead how skilled dreamers learn to move within the vast unconscious with greater awareness and respect.
Robert Waggoner wrote the acclaimed book, Lucid Dreaming – Gateway to the Inner Self (now in its sixteenth printing), and co-authored Lucid Dreaming Plain and Simple with Caroline McCready. His books have been translated into French, German, Chinese, Korean, Czech, Finnish and other languages.
A past President of the International Association for the Study of Dreams (IASD), Robert currently serves on the Executive Committee. For twenty years, he has been co-editor of the online magazine The Lucid Dreaming Experience the only ongoing publication devoted specifically to lucid dreaming. Recently, he helped found the non-profit Lucid Dreaming Foundation to spread the practice, research, and beneficial use of lucid dreaming
Robert frequently speaks on the science and practice of lucid dreaming at international dream conferences, workshops, and college classrooms. He has been interviewed or consulted about the practice of lucid dreaming by CNN, CBS News, and ABC News (KABC – Los Angeles) along with Iowa Public Radio, WPNR, WBGU, and other radio stations. A lucid dreamer since 1975, he has logged more than 1,000 lucid dreams.
