Our Dreams and What They Mean
Like Tarot, the archetypal images of the dream world form a universal language that transcends race, religion, culture and national origin. Our dreams speak to us of our hopes and fears often urging our psyche to accept greater challenges and to overcome once seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Likewise, our dreams can be a celebration of joy, the promise of love or the original witness to our greatest accomplishments.
Our dreams can also announce the coming of an important individual to our life path.
On a personal note, I have encountered some of my most important spiritual guides, animal totems and teachers in the dream world.
Dream Analysis and Visualizations ~
Do you have a dream that remains a mystery to you? I have been studying dreams and their symbology since 1973, and I am now offering a new online dream analysis service. In addition to the basic dream interpretation, I will also include a visualization. A visualization is a guided meditation that creates a connection between our subconscious and conscious mind. By using the guided meditation right before falling asleep, we can inspire lucid dreaming. Lucid dreaming is our ability to intentionally alter our dream environment by allowing our conscious mind to awaken within the dream world itself. For this reason, lucid dreaming is an invaluable tool that is helpful in overcoming addictions such as eating disorders and drug or alcohol abuse. Lucid dreaming also offers the opportunity for real healing to take place while we sleep. The idea is to create a shift away from old patterns of behavior through personal awareness.
For example, water is a common but important dream symbol which represents our unconscious Self, including our ability to feel on an emotional level. Normally, we simply observe the water as a property in the dream. Through lucid dreaming, we can gain true awareness of the source of the water within the dream. Then, we can consciously choose to create a cup, fill that cup with the dream water and drink its cool, pure, refreshing nourishment. In this manner, we can incorporate the water's healing properties on a deep psychic level and flood our consciousness with the Light of Spirit, thus revealing the truth and essence of the dream message.
My interest in Dream Analysis began as a child who was mesmerized by the stories of Daniel in the Bible. Today, my knowledge of dreams and their symbolic meaning encompasses over thirty years of intensive exploration into Jungian Archetypes, Aboriginal Dreamtime, Animal Totems, Shamanism, and many of the ancient religions and philosophies of the world.
