Out of the depths of the crater he is calling for help.

Professor Jung:

The present dreams come from a woman who consulted me at about thirty years of age, in a very difficult situation, shortly before the outbreak of schizophrenia.

She writes that these two childhood dreams have haunted her throughout her whole life.

They are the first dreams she can remember.

We must assume that they have made a special impression on her.

When you hear such dreams, you naturally have to be ready to use your intellect.

But sometimes it is much more important to consult your feeling function.

You cannot do psychology with an excellent intellect alone.

You also have to identify the feeling values, not only the meanings.

In the case of a dream such as the present one we can, without any special gift for fantasy, put ourselves into its atmosphere.

The fact alone that the father calls, at night, is something exciting and frightening.

The father doesn’t call at night! It is the child, at most, who calls at night.

If the father calls at night, there is something wrong!

Imagine lying in your bed at night as a child, hearing the call of the father—something terrible has happened.

So, consequently, the child gets up in the dream; she breaks into the room of the parents, and in this place, where otherwise the parents are, the warmth of parental love, open arms ready for her—in this place she sees two heaps of ashes and death masks above them!

This really is a catastrophic impression.

The frightening call of the father is also repeated in the second dream.

Out of the depths of the crater he is calling for help.

When you hear such dreams, and feel what they mean, you can approach them intellectually and ask, for heaven’s sake, what do these horrible-looking dreams mean. ~Carl Jung, Children’s Dream Seminar, Page 156-157
