Now. Some females will identify in the dream with the bull. In dreams many females will have what you would call male reactions. Some males in dreams will have what you would call female reactions. The bull could come also to represent a person the dreamer considers bullheaded. A bullfighting dream might be formed. The variations are endless. Some generic images will have strong personal significance because of past life experiences. The generic image does not only color the dream state, however. These images are the first basis from which thought evolved. This would almost amount to a cellular thinking process, but it is actually a gestalt of relatedness in which cellular comprehension was, and is, passed throughout the physical organism.

Inhabitants of other systems have their own generic image patterns. Even within your own system these generic images vary. The predominating image for an individual is that of his own species, but the ancestral patterns are strongly supportive. You are not only male or female as you know, but both, with one temporarily predominating. Almost (underlined) without exception, there are male and female lives either in your past or future. Dreams at the deepest level will not respond necessarily then to your present sex identity.

The generic images are like lifelines. (Long pause) They seem to lead into your past, but these lifelines are spirals, and only the limitations of physical perception lead you to think of them in that manner.
