Outside help is needed for true love to prosper, this shows what the author defines love as. This circle of love and jealousy where Helen loves Demetrius who loves Hermia, who loves Lysander, who ends up loving Helen can only be halted by the magic and meddling of mischievous fairies. Since all of this magic happens within the dream it portrays how dreaming is magic. How is dreaming like magic? In dreams you can fly, you can die, betray loved ones, perform inhumane acts, morph into different creatures and when you awaken the chaos disappears like magic. These life changing events are erased and you wake anew with the idea that it was “just a dream” insuring the sanity of the mind is still in tact. Dreaming is like insanity, things do not make sense, it is madness. These characters lose their minds over love, and it all happens because of magic. Awareness of self and one's surrounding is lost when the lovers become engulfed and obsessed with one another. Similar to what happens when one uses a hallucinogen. The curse relieves obsessions and opens their eyes to see the development they have accomplished through this insane dream and the quest they traveled
