Dreamscapes: Scenery and Place

skip down to the dreams!
Scenic views of dream worlds. OK, there are a few daydream and visionary landscapes thrown in...

Compiling this list taught me how my own dreams have changed. My early dreams are full of dreamscapes and maps. Such dreams were often just as useful as my current dreams of friendly spirits, but few of them made my editorial cut--their imagery seemed too symbolic, too private. Too dull.

I'm far more social now--most of the dreamscapes below are from the last twenty years, and few of them are really landscapes--most have active people (not always human, but people) in the foreground. The land is usually a mere setting.

That doesn't mean I'm any less interested in landforms and what they say. But now my eco-obsessions get ample expression in the (nondream) art-series Planetocopia.

I have few regrets--back then, I was serious, solitary, and lonely! Better now. Still, this site reflects a strong bias toward people, animals, magic, sex and humor. I've wondered if this flashiness is partly a reaction to my early, endless journeys through solemn Jungian dreamscapes.

So what am I saying? If you have dreams of pure landscapes, ones that seem to symbolize your current state, you're not the odd one out; it's a classic dream-type. And the shapes of the land can be just as charged with beauty and meaning--even shamanic advice about life-paths to take--as a flashy adventure. Solitary dreamscapes don't even imply deep introversion or a solitary nature; just a particular phase of a dreamer's life and interests.
