I gathered its each persons ideal version of the world, how in their perception the world oughta be rather than how it is.

Came across this reading about existential psychotherapy:  Überwelt refers to spiritual and/or ideal dimension of human existence (being one of 4: physical/environmental, social, psychological, spiritual). It is the aspect of life where we try to find greater meaning with a philosophy, religion, code of ethics or ideology. It's where we confront the existential tension between hope and despair, meaningfulness and nihilism etc. It's also where we (some of us quite literally) face "the void and the possibility of nothingness" in our quest for something that transcends the mortal self and strictures of time.

 

Or something like that.
