Western romance mythology centers around being in love as an ecstatic state in which we feel we have been completed, found the ultimate meaning in life, and have larger than life feelings of intensity. Unconsciously we have the expectation that our lover provide us with these feelings continuously. We also assume that our model of romance is the best and that love relationships not based on “being in love” must be pale, insignificant shadows by comparison.

A young woman I know sent me a dream this morning with themes that resonate with dreams of other young women I have interpreted, and now I wish I had written down more of them because so many of them have been so powerful and illuminating of the state of the feminine after six thousand years of patriarchal history. In this essay I will discuss what I have learned from these dreams and from other cultural observations. I will conclude with analysis of two of dreams, including the one from this morning. Like most of my web-posted documents, this is a work in progress, and I expect to add to and revise this document as more dreams and observations come up.
