Dr. Whitmont describes the symbolic approach to a dream, which takes into account a symptoms meaning in reference to an unfolding wholeness of personality. He then presents the view that the instinctual urge for meaning is served by the symbolizing capacities, and that this urge has been repressed in our time.\n\nIn the field of psychology, this symbolic approach is most fully exemplified by the theories of C. G. Jung.
