Symbols have always felt mysterious to me, but also familiar. They show up in dreams, in moments of strong feeling, and even in everyday life. Jung believed that symbols are a language of the unconscious, ways that the deeper self communicates with us.
I remember a dream where I was in a garden full of blooming flowers. I felt calm and happy, but I also noticed a single wilting flower in the corner. That flower stuck with me. Later, I realized it represented something I had been neglecting in myself, a small part of me that needed attention and care.
Symbols can appear in everyday life too. A song, a color, or even an object can suddenly feel meaningful, as if it is pointing to something I need to see about myself. I am learning to pause and notice these little messages instead of dismissing them as coincidence.
Paying attention to symbols helps me connect with the parts of myself that are quiet or hidden. They guide me gently and often show me what my conscious mind is missing. Sometimes the messages are clear, and sometimes they remain mysterious. Either way, I try to honor them.
Today, I will pay closer attention to the symbols around me, both in my dreams and in life. I will notice the small signs, the colors, and the feelings that linger, trusting that they are a window into the deeper parts of myself.
