Lantern
Carried light; the attention you bring into the dark.
JapaneseJungianFolk
The lantern is the light you carry. Japanese Obon festival uses floating lanterns to guide the spirits home. Jungian analysis reads lantern-dreams as the attention the dreamer is willing to bring into their own unknown. A dimming lantern often marks a question of faith; a lantern offered by another, a guidance received. Notice what the lantern illuminates, step by step.
