Baby leads the way
After my considerations about forming myself, I had a dream. In the dream, I was carrying a baby who was snuggled in my arms, and she was leading me through a series of steps based on what she needed. Now isn't that an answer to my question yesterday. If I stay in touch with the baby, I am operating out of myself. If I lose sight of the baby, I am lost and confused (dream of 13 March). It is not easy to understand the messages from the baby (a listening-challenge) but I feel interested and committed to try.

It sounds like you are equating baby and self. Is that a Jungian perspective, or yours separate from Jung, or ???? Say more about this. It is a familiar perspective but I am wondering beyond it as well. What do you think?
I didn't do that intentionally. I was equating baby with wiser and more basic part of myself. Perhaps it has some qualities of Self. Jung did not equate baby with Self. However in this particular dream, I was lost without contact with the baby. Say more about beyond please.
Ahh, wiser and more basic part of your self. Basic like "instinct", basic like "in the moment"? I didn't really have something in particular I was thinking, I was just wondering if there is something beyond this concept of baby. Did following her lead in the dream take you somewhere in particular?
