With a certain subtle attention to the colorful diversity of dream experiences, this character can become clear. From simple symbols to dramatic events, all intermediate stages can be found in this world that flits through the soul. One dreams of a conflagration; one wakes up and realizes that one had fallen asleep next to the lamp. The light of the lamp was perceived in the dream; but not as it presents itself to the senses in the ordinary world, but as a symbol, as a conflagration. Or you dream of a troop of riders that you hear trampling past; you wake up, and the horse trampling continues immediately as the beating of the clock, which has been symbolized in this way. - You dream of an animal scratching your face; when you wake up, you feel pain in that particular place, which has found its dream symbol in the way described. - A longer “dream could be something like the following. Someone dreams that he is walking through a forest. He hears a noise. As he continues walking, a person emerges from a bush and approaches him. The attacker shoots. At this moment, the dreamer wakes up and realizes that he has just knocked over the chair next to his bed. The impact of the chair has been transformed by the dream consciousness into the symbolic action described. In this way, external events or even internal facts, such as the example given above of the animal scratching, can be perceived as symbols through the dream. Affects and moods can also be represented in this way. For example, someone suffers from the oppressive feeling that an unpleasant event will occur for him in the next few days. In the dream, this feeling presents itself in such a way that he is in danger of drowning.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"43.

Bei einer einigermaßen subtilen Aufmerksamkeit auf die bunte Mannigfaltigkeit der Traumerlebnisse kann dieser Charakter klar werden. Von einfachen Sinnbildern bis zu dramatischen Vorgängen finden sich alle Zwischenstufen in dieser durch die Seele huschenden Welt. - Man träumt von einer Feuersbrunst; man wacht auf und merkt, dass man neben der Lampe eingeschlafen war. Das Licht der Lampe hat man da im Traume wahrgenommen; aber nicht so, wie es sich in der gewöhnlichen Welt den Sinnen darstellt, sondern im Sinnbild, als Feuersbrunst. Oder man träumt von einer Reiterschar, die man vorübertrampeln hört; man wacht auf, und das Pferdegetrampel setzt sich unmittelbar fort als das Schlagen der Uhr, das sich auf diese Art versinnbildlicht hat. - Man träumt von einem Tiere, das einem an der Gesichtsseite kratzt; beim Aufwachen zeigt sich, dass man an der betreffenden Stelle einen Schmerz fühlt, der auf die angegebene Art sein Traum-Sinnbild gefunden hat. - Ein länger ausgesponnener \"Traum könnte etwa der folgende sein. Jemand träumt, er gehe durch einen Wald. Er vernimmt ein Geräusch. Beim Weitergehen tritt aus einem Gebüsche ein Mensch auf ihn zu. Dieser geht zum Angriffe über. Ein Kampf entspinnt sich, der Angreifer schießt. In diesem Augenblicke wacht der Träumer auf, und er merkt, dass er eben den Stuhl neben seinem Bette umgeworfen habe. Der Aufschlag des Stuhles ist durch das Traumbewusstsein in die geschilderte sinnbildliche Handlung umgewandelt worden. So können äußere Vorgänge oder auch innere Tatsachen, wie in dem oben gegebenen Beispiele von dem kratzenden Tiere, durch den Traum als Sinnbilder wahrgenommen werden. Auch Affekte, Stimmungen können sich so darstellen. Jemand leidet z.B. unter dem bedrückenden Gefühle, dass für ihn in den nächsten Tagen ein unangenehmes Ereignis eintreten werde. Im Traume stellt sich dieses Gefühl so dar, dass er sich in der Gefahr des Ertrinkens befindet.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":308,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/46/46-03-43/p004"}],"english":["GA 46/46-03-43/p004"],"method":"structural_identity","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"unverified","length_check":{"de_words":308,"en_words":323,"ratio":1.05,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.09,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":15368,"original_word_count":14043,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":null,"publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Articles/GA046/English/SOL2024/46-03-43.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
