The Dream Book of Self-Knowledge

Malaria

  • seeing a person ill with malaria: this image is intended to mobilize the dreamer's weakened emotions so that he is able to get through an approaching period with dignity.
  • the malaria that a doctor treats in dreams does not pertain to the physical body, but almost always to ill and insufficient emotions.
  • a malaria epidemic: the dreamer is living in a constant void of emotions and therefore instincts are inevitably being intensified, which threatens to lead to unhappiness of the extent shown by the dimension of the dream epidemic.
