There are dreams that portray with unusual clarity critical junctures in a person's life. Inasmuch as the realm from which the images of a dream emerge is of the same nature as the source of genuine fairy tales, it is intuitively perceptive of the latter's deeper meanings. Thus suitable fairy tale themes can enhance the experiential insight into dreams. The young student's dream that we discussed indicates a sharp awareness of several existential disharmonies. He confuses the messages originating in his innermost self with external demands against which he still rebels blindly; he is incapable of metamorphosing creatively the numerous disorganized urges within himself; and he thus cannot achieve a positive relationship with his deeper potentials which are set aside. The comparison of the dream with an analogous, charming Romansh tale portraying a harmonious solution of the young man's impasse proved to be of crucial help.
有些梦极其清晰地描绘了一个人生命中的关键转折点。鉴于梦的意象所源自的领域与真正童话的源头具有相同的性质，它能直观地洞察到后者更深层次的意义。因此，合适的童话主题可以增强对梦的体验性洞察。我们所讨论的那位年轻学生的梦表明，他敏锐地意识到了几种存在性的不协调。他将源自内心深处的信息与外部要求混为一谈，而他仍然盲目地反抗这些外部要求；他无法创造性地改变自己内心众多杂乱无章的冲动；因此，他无法与被搁置一旁的更深层次的潜力建立积极的关系。将这个梦与一个类似的、迷人的罗曼什语童话进行比较，该童话描绘了年轻人困境的和谐解决方案，结果证明非常有帮助。
