This project serves to house a scholar studying Sigmund Freud’s Interpretation of Dreams, to inspire further analysis of Freud’s concept of the unconscious mind—or rather the relationship between the unconscious and conscious mind.
The Interpretation of Dreams was most impactful on the field of psychoanalysis because it prompted the research of the unconscious mind as a crucial part to studying human behavior. Rather than creating a lodge dedicated to the study of dreams, this project is intended for discovering the relationship between the unconscious and conscious mind as it not only explains dreams but human behavior as well. Of course, the unconscious mind and the ways it may impact the conscious mind are vastly misunderstood and unknown, so this lodge aims to aid the study by first analyzing the unconscious and conscious separately—as we know it now—and then studying the two together.
Ultimately, this project inspires a deeper understanding of the unconscious and conscious relationship through emphasizing the juxtaposition between the reality and the unknown.
