Dreams create symbolism by comparing one thing to another. An eruption is comparable to something that happens suddenly and forcefully, such as a volcano erupting. Hot emotions and feelings such as anger, hostility, and frustration suddenly emerge. Devastation can ensue. See: Bombs A tense or heated situation is said to erupt when someone snaps and sparks fly. An eruption implies something that happens suddenly, but also builds pressure beforehand. For example, your best friend is dating your ex. The situation is tense, and trouble is brewing. It might erupt into a big conflict or cause a rupture with your friend. And if it happens, it could bring years’ worth of grievances to the surface. During an eruption, something that was contained comes out into the open. Repression, neglect, and desire for change create internal pressure that can lead to an eruption of the psyche, if these conditions are allowed to prolong unresolved. Jungian psychology uses the phrase “eruption of unconscious content” to describe when the unconscious mind suddenly pours into the conscious mind. The dam bursts and there’s no stopping the flood. Carl Jung said it happened to him when he was in his mid-thirties, and fortunately as a psychiatrist he had the tools to deal with it. Many of his greatest insights about the psyche came forth during that time of his life, but the flood of crazy thoughts, emotions, and imagery almost got the best of him. The ego keeps up walls against the unconscious for good reason; otherwise, it can be impossible to handle everyday reality. See: Unconscious minds Some people are completely overwhelmed when such an eruption happens. They can make unsound and rash decisions and suddenly stop acting like themselves. Their dreams fill with images of things erupting and bursting, and often the dreams will recur almost exactly, until the right decision or insight is made that allows them to take the next step.
