Dreaming of Labyrinth
In short
What does dreaming of Labyrinth mean?
Dreaming of a labyrinth means you are in search of your own centre, traversing the complexity of the soul to reach what lies at its heart. The Minotaur at the centre is the Shadow that must be confronted to be free, and Ariadne's thread is the intuition that guides. From the Chartres labyrinth to Tibetan labyrinthine mandalas, this spiralling path always leads toward Neptune and the lunar depths.
Jungian interpretation
The path toward the centre of the Self. The Minotaur at the centre — the Shadow one must confront to be free.
Freudian interpretation
The meanderings of the unconscious. Getting lost among one's own contradictory thoughts and desires.
Esoteric meaning
The labyrinth of Chartres (a path of prayer). Ariadne's thread as intuition. Linked to the Moon and Neptune.
Cultural readings
Western tradition: Theseus and the Minotaur. The Chartres labyrinth. Daedalus.
Eastern tradition: Tibetan labyrinthine mandalas. The game of Go as a strategic labyrinth.
