A Dream of Healing

I wrote on Thursday of my healing work in PTSD therapy. This morning I had this dream:

I was in a large space filled with people and things. It was day. Jasn was lying on the floor, weeping. Lisa was at his side trying to comfort him. There was also someone else close by, maybe one of my sisters?

In this dream are my animus-Jason and anima-Lisa, both my children, both "part of me" that is part of my emotional self. Jason is weeping and I now realize after yesterday that it is my animus that was wounded in my childhood and marriage. Now I must focus on healing my animus, my male self. Because it is maleness that is assertive and makes a mark in the world.

I will take this dream to therapy next week and we will address the healing of my animus there.

God wants us to heal and we can using all the knowledge of faith, psychology, socialogy, Al Anon and all the knowledge humanity has gained. God may heal us directly but we must identify and "till the soil" as St. Therese said.
