What piles up

Rubbish rising to the ceiling speaks of an accumulation that can no longer be ignored: what one set aside, day after day, ends up taking all the room. The dream often speaks of emotions, memories or tasks one pushed aside without dealing with them.

What one rejected sometimes has value

Crumpled papers are often drafts: abandoned ideas, attempts judged failures. Packaging once held something. The dream may thus show that what one was looking for lies in what one threw away.

What the rubbish shows changes the reading

A psychological reading, not a ready-made box

Analytical psychology reminds us that what consciousness rejects often keeps a precious energy: this is the shadow, the part of oneself one does not want to see. The dream invites one to look into what has been thrown away.
