Another great passage from ML Von Franz’s Alchemy:

On the other hand, we have seen people drowned in the unconscious, namely schizoid or borderline cases, or people in a psychotic episode who talk knowledge of the unconscious. They sit in bed, or in their cells in the asylum, and talk of the creation of the world, and of what God is and what should be done to save the world, saying that the doctors are all fools and that they know better and so on. That is knowledge of the unconscious; it is water and it is even full of wisdom, but the speaker’s head is under the water, and the knowledge has got the person and not the person the knowledge. That poor person is literally drowned in the wisdom of the unconscious; he does not want to get out for he feels that he is drowned in something very good and very marvellous, which is why most refuse to be cured.

Seen from a reasonable standpoint that is a very bad condition to be in, for such people become so unadapted that they have to be confined. They have too much of the water of life, although what they say is not nonsense. If you have sufficient symbolic knowledge you can understand what a psychotic person says from A to Z, just as though it were everyday talk. (p. 101-2)

Anyway, besides all that (or in addition to all that), I had a very productive night dreaming, but don’t remember much. I do remember that I had three, or possibly four different sex dreams (each with a different girl, I think) which is unusually high for me. The other episode that stands out is that one of these girls had a little tiny cat that ran out into the hallway. This cat had one red/orange eye, and one blue eye. One of these eyes was supposed to be a fake one. I went over to the cat to say hello, and the cat and I touched our noses together, and communicated thusly for quite some time. It was very pleasant.
