Seeing Ourselves in Others: Gregory Ganymedes on The Power of Projection in Dreams and Life

Projection is a fundamental yet often unnoticed aspect of human experience. We see in others what we cannot yet recognize in ourselves, whether in moments of conflict, admiration, or even within the mysterious landscapes of our dreams.

In this episode of The Circle, Eric Bomyea and Timothy Bish welcome dream worker Gregory Ganymedes to go all in on the nature of projection—how it operates in our subconscious and how it influences our waking interactions. Through an insightful conversation, they explore:

• Understanding Projection: How our unconscious mind externalizes unrecognized aspects of ourselves onto others, shaping our relationships and perceptions.
• Projection in Dreams: The role of dreams in revealing hidden truths about our inner world, and how dream analysis can uncover unresolved emotions and patterns.
• Everyday Projection: How projection influences communication, assumptions, and reactions in daily life, particularly in the context of men’s work and personal development.
• Reclaiming the Self: Tools and practices for recognizing projection as it arises and integrating these reflections for deeper self-awareness and emotional maturity.

Join us as we navigate the terrain of the unconscious with Gregory Ganymedes, reframing projection from an unconscious defense mechanism into a powerful tool for self-discovery and transformation.
