- Jung began as one of Freud's students
- but split from him in a big way in large measure over Freud's rather narrrow view of dreams and dream interpretation
- for myself, any attempt to blend Freud and Jung is doomed to failure as there are certain basic assumptions underlying the two systems that really cannot be reconciled
- so, I recommend you select one or the other system and spend some time (a few years at least) working on your dreams based on that system of interpretation
- my recommendation would be to stick to Jung, of course
>:-}}
- also, using more than one system at the same time invites interpretations that "feel better" - don't like what one system has to suggests, "oh well, I'll just use another that fits my notions of things"
- if after a few years with one system one feels unsatisfied, then investigatng another might be worthwhile
- but remember, off-the-rack-books on dream interpretation are quite limited - without proper background reading and study of the system from which the book is written, one really is taking potshots in the dark and may mislead oneself due to the blindspots we have about ourselves
