The symbology of the Divine is in our dreams yes, the "Imago Dei". Carl Jung spent his lifetime researching that. In the famous interview where he was asked if he believed in God, to which he replied "no,I don't believe, I know!" that was pretty much what he meant.

A Contribution to Statistics by Wislawa Szymborska Out of a hundred people those who always know better — fifty-two doubting every step — nearly all the rest, glad to lend a hand if it doesn’t take too long — as high as forty-nine, always good because they can’t be otherwise — four, well maybe five, able to admire without envy — eighteen, suffering illusions induced by fleeting youth — sixty, give or take a few, not to be taken lightly — forty and four, living in constant fear of someone or something — seventy-seven, capable of happiness — twenty-something tops, harmless singly, savage in crowds — half at least, cruel when forced by circumstances — better not to know even ballpark figures, wise after the fact — just a couple more than wise before it, taking only things from life — thirty (I wish I were wrong), hunched in pain, no flashlight in the dark — eighty-three sooner or later, righteous — thirty-five, which is a lot, righteous and understanding — three, worthy of compassion — ninety-nine, mortal — a hundred out of a hundred. Thus far this figure still remains unchanged.
