The assumption of a magical function of the dream is a sequel to the dream theory of Jekels and Bergler. The superego's reproach, the unfinished task, is couched in the day residue, and the latent wish fulfilment in the dream is the id's reply to the superego. The latent content is not only pure wish fulfilment on a hallucinatory level, but also an attempt to influence reality by fantasy. The magical principle is the transition from the pleasure principle to the reality principle.
