Rituals symbolize transitions in life. Also, they make up a representation that invites you to escape the limits imposed but the conscience. In this sense, you can enjoy the wide world of your imagination. According to Carl Jung’s studies, in dreams, images of fertility rites emerge in the collective subconscious. In this manner, the dream tries to separate the subconscious from the conscience so that you can connect with your most instinctive you.
Shamanic rituals bring the individual to a state where the dreamer develops prophetic and clairvoyant powers. So, it is recommended to take note of the dreams upon waking, in case they contained premonitory information.

If your dream feels like it has a ritualistic sensibility, there may be a call to turn to the more spiritual side of your nature and the part of life that feels mysterious. Some dreams that feature ritual settings feel dark or scary and may reflect feeling overwhelmed by things you don’t readily understand.

Your dream is giving you the message to take care of yourself as you emerge into this next phase of your life.
