As one thing leads to another and there's something to be found in every thing (an unfoldment not an accretion) it's still making me laugh. I had/have no intention of hi-jacking this thread and flooding the comments, but some things pop into my head that just feel like they're worth sharing and I don't post very often so maybe it's forgiveable. They say to "Be careful who you share your dreams with" but the anonymity and disconnection of the internet that some folks use as shields of immunity from real-world consequences of "trolling" & being an overall jerk can be used for good too & I think this warning is more in regards to sharing dreams too flippantly with those around you who can reach out and touch you & might take them a wrong way & use them against you. Seems pretty harmless here.

10/11/20 - This now being hours after waking, the details of the last dream are mostly out of sight, but I was essentially showing my mother how to actively enter and navigate through the dream world and collective unconscious, and as we stood by what appeared to be the "portal" or "stargate" she was asking "How are you able to do this?" Whether or not there really was any kind of an actual visitation in the dream world happening between me & her I can't really know right now (I could send her a text and ask her if she had any interesting or unusual dreams last night that she remembers, but maybe not even then). I'm trying to be as careful & mindful as I can about what & how I'm extrapolating.
So far I haven't been giving any of the real world prior day's context for the symbolisms as long as I've been noticing and connecting them in the present (just for the sake of brevity & content condensation), but I may as well.

After crushing my finger and getting a text from her "out of the blue" asking how I was doing (as I was waiting out the pain. Still am, but was too), I again noticed the timing to be yet another "coincidence" to add to the growing stack in her room/realm of my mental-note-taking that again makes me wonder "How is SHE seemingly capable of sensing things about me without any tangible contact or connection to them being made?" (especially being such a seemingly polar opposite personality type & way of thinking) Am I projecting a connection that she is picking up on & responding to? Is she becoming a little more whole and connected now that old age is diminishing her social life and increasing her alone time? Am I reading too much into this? Or maybe even "all of the above".
Another parallel from the prior day that the dream was apparently playing with was a comment I made on... (here) ...saying... (see above) ...and I couldn't help but picture Jung somewhere on the other side having a good laugh at that, like "Got him!" It's genuinely funny how it all comes full circle. In that little snapshot of my imagination (or daydream), upon reflection, it didn't seem like Freud was there for Jung to poke in the ribs and say "Come on! LAUGH! It's just a joke!" which leads to the "silly question" of "why is that?" & then an answer: Maybe being bound together around the same thing as polar opposites with Freud of the perspective that it's all physical and rational while Jung was more like "I wouldn't be so sure of that. There seems to be something more to it below the surface and I can show you if you'll allow me to", I suppose it's only rational that he would wind up in a different place. But on the flip side of the coin, it's like asking if "heads" and "tails" are in the same place. Yes and no.
