In cross-gender dreams, in which we seem to be in the body and life situation of a person of the opposite sex, we may be getting in touch with our female or male side. Yet such dreams may also be transpersonal. The episode I reported from last night was part of a complex and highly realistic adventure in which, inter alia, I was helping the people of that plateau to set up an agricultural cooperative, and interviewing a woman geologist on the unusual rock formations, and investigating the diseases and use of hallucinogens by the indigenous population. It does not feel like the drama and the body-swapping were confined to the basements of my personal subconscious; it feels like I was there and that my dream self entered and used the woman anthropologist's body for significant reasons, which may have included expanding my own understanding of women and humanity.
