Immediately after the dream*, I entered a half-awake stage in which the setting became transformed into a co-educational dormitory or room where boys and girls mixed in a rather physical and, I think, semi-consciously controlled fantasy. This contrasted strongly with the all-male (so far as I recall) and completely a-sexual ambience of the dream, suggesting, as I would expect, that the more conscious levels of the self are holding me back. And I believe they are: as I have explained above (p48ff)**; it is my self-consciousness that inhibits me, that tries to plan for what cannot be planned. But at least, on the whole, I believe that the general movement is indicated to be in the right direction.
