My dreams are the way I see how & who I am in all my multiplicity, it never ceases to amaze me the many different characters, attitudes & behavious that show up in my dreams! Argh! All very instructive though, facing one's shadow is always deeply humbling work.

Another beautiful image from #JWST, this one showing the aftermath of a collision between two dwarf galaxies.
The two bright concentrations of stars are left and right with gas and stars forming a thick filament between the two.
The collision formed new stars—the blue regions throughout the scene.
