Levels of Dreaming and the Makeup of the Human Being: The Spiritual Ontology of Dreams

With a fundamental distinction between dream forms and dream content, this essay examines four levels of dreaming, each one associated with a particular set of relationships between the physical, etheric, astral, and Ego. The transition of consciousness between different states is shown to give rise to the phenomenon of "projection", which consequently provides opportunities for soul-work. The relations are described with an eye towards those interested in gaining a deeper relationship to their dream life, and in particular to those involved in spiritual development.
