Another example: Kekule 'said that he had discovered the ring shape of the benzene molecule after having a reverie or day-dream of a snake seizing its own tail.'
Musicians commonly report waking up with song ideas fully formed. We shouldn't be too surprised, really; the complex sentences out of our mouths (more often than not) arrive without any conscious thinking. Jung said that our egos are like planets orbiting a Sun they're unaware of.
where do people have these discussions and can I join? I wake up almost every morning with music in my head from the dream that is (more often than not) original, and IMO sounded like any hit on the radio.
And then within a few minutes I quickly forget the music. And there’s no way to remember it because it’s not anything that I can just find and listen to.
