The Dream Book of Self-Knowledge

Mafia

  • this is not something external, but the internal personification of evil*65 that each person more or less possesses within in latent form; a person is urged by inner impulses stemming from this evil to carry out egotistical acts and in some cases is even able to identify with this personified evil (see Shadow archetype).
  • working with the mafia, supporting its activities: a premonitory dream; in his behavior and acts the dreamer is contributing to the growth of evil within and in his surroundings.
  • for peaceful spiritual development we shouldn't increase the ranks of the mafia or support mafia structures, but in rejecting them we should distance ourselves from the mafia and ultimately find indifference by which we ultimately rid ourselves of the existence of this negative symbol in the unconscious.
