As a child, there was a saying framed in our home that said, “Today is the First Day of the Rest of Your Life.” It took many years for me to completely understand what this meant, but when I did, I realized the past is definitely behind us and we have the ability every moment of every day to decide how we want the rest of our life to be.

Have you ever had someone ask you if you knew what your life's purpose was and felt completely stumped? I certainly have, it just sounded so daunting and so big that all I could say was, "Oh gosh if only I knew! I've been trying to figure that out for years!" But when asked what I was passionate about, well I could go on about that for hours! Here's a little secret; our passions and our purpose are directly related.
There is a section of the Tong Shu or Chinese Almanac on interpreting dreams. It is called “Zhou Gong’s Book of Auspicious and Inauspicious Dreams”.nnZhou Gong is believed to be the same Duke of Zhou who is reputed to have assisted significantly in the development of the Yi Qing, (Book of Changes), an ancient divination text.nnWe are not sure if he was personally responsible for the dreams interpretation. It is quite common to associate a piece of work with
Dreams are said to be the oldest language known to man yet for many they remain misunderstood. For example, many fear and reject their nightmares; versus respecting and embracing them for the important messages they hold. Night terrors are not only dreams where you are paralyzed with fear, but are dreams where fear, upset, and anxiety are felt well into the waking state. Night terrors do not happen over night; rather they are a result of several previous dreams that have gon
All right, letâs just jump in and address the context of this title. Yeah, Iâve had a lot of naked dreams. Theyâve helped me through various life situations. First of all if you have a dream of yourself being naked, or someone else being naked, donât worry, youâre not necessarily a pervert. This is your psyche sending you a message about the issue of HONESTY without any type of defensive dressing. Letâs face it, being human, weâre all vulnerable to one thing or
Deborah DeNicola www.intuitivegateways.com When a person is too deeply embedded in the collective, outer reality of everyday life, the discovery in his or her own dreams of universal, archetypal images ... can be a freeing experience. (Jungian Dream Interpretation Hall, 114) In the world of archetypal symbolism birds in our dreams often indicate a spiritual endeavor. After all, they fly above us, closer to the heavens than we normally find ourselves.
If you are now—or have ever—had a series of dreams that are the same dream repeating itself, or the same dream with slight variations over time: Pay Attention! This type of dream—the recurring dream—is repeating itself and being recalled for a reason. Most often, a very ...
It’s interesting to realize that we spend approximately 6-8 hours of our daily life sleeping. When you add that up over a lifetime, that’s almost 1/3 of our lives! Along with all the benefits that sleep offers including rejuvenating the body, mind and spirit, there is another benefit that we sometimes don’t acknowledge, and that is dreaming. However, most people don’t pay much attention to their dreams because they don’t understand them. They show up as apparently random situations with oddities that we could hardly think of on our own even if we tried.
Article adapted from SHE WHO DREAMS By Wanda Easter Burch Published by New World Librarynn(1500 words) At the beginning of 1990, I followed my dreams to Africa. I was in Ghana when I fell asleep on a warm afte oon, lulled in and out of awareness by the syncopated beatingnof yams in the ...
nnHaving those dreams again where you suddenly find yourself in the most unlikely places and weird locales? They say we are what we dream. And the venues of our dreams certainly say a lot about our hopes and fears in life. Read on to find out.nnnn School :.nnDreams that happen in schools mean a return to childhood, back when we were just starting out in the arena of life. Schools are also one of the first venues where authority and discipline was exercised upon us, and where
The Greeks had a wonderful marriage of the scientific and their belief in the supe atural (or that which is beyond the rational). When somebody could not be cured by the modern medicine, the physician would acknowledge this and would then look towards Asclepius or the gods. Asclepius was the Greek god of healing. His healing sanctuaries were found throughout the know Hellenic world. This tradition was active for almost 2000 years from around 1300 BCE to 500CE. In times of il
What most people fear when dreaming of someone dying is that the dream is precognitive -- that the dream will come true. While it is a possibility, in most cases it is not. If you think of death as a transition -- of moving from one state to another, then death is not so fearful (especially if you believe there is more after the physical body dies). Death is as natural as being born -- as natural as living. Each must occur in its time. To die is to be reborn in another state -- and the cycle continues.
Many people realize that our intuition â our âgut feelingâ â invariably tells us the best action to take. However, I have long wondered why intuitive guidance is so vague and cryptic, so easy to miss or misunderstand. After all, if God is omnipotent, why canât S/He just tell me in plain English what S/He wants me to do! Finally, I heard an enlightening analogy that answered the question for me: As a human being, I am far more intelligent than a stinkbug. Yet, it is
Had an odd dream lately where you found yourself in the most unlikely places? Our dreams are always telling us something, and the venues and settings in our dreams contribute a whole new layer and impact to their meanings. nnn Here are analyses of places you visit (or will visit yet) in your dreams. nnn Cliffn Obviously, cliffs are signs of hardships and obstacles, but not necessarily so. If you dream you are on the edge of a cliff, looking down, it means you are facing obsta
In our waking life, we go to places for a reason. We go to the cinema to watch a film (and possibly to hold hands with our date), we go to the park to take the day off and play a ballgame with friends (or ogle good-looking people), we go to the beach to dig our toes in the sand and take a dip in the waters (or again, ogle good-looking people). There is always a reason, one way or another. nnnnIn these days of busy lifestyle, few of us waste time going to places where we have
The one feeling that is most associated, almost synonymous with nightmares is.... FEAR! I will begin this talk by remembering a woman in our dream group in 1989, who had a dream in which a ferocious BEAR loomed up large onto her dream-screen. She was terrified and awakened sweating and shaking! ...
A Recent Survey Reveals The 5 Most Common Dreams nnWere you being chased last night? Or were you back in high school again without a stitch of clothing on? If so, then you experienced one of the 5 most common dreams we all get, according to a recent survey by Lauri Loewenberg, author of âCracking The Dream Code.â The survey was conducted through her site www.thedreamzone.com and had over 5000 participants. Below Lauri reveals the most common dreams reported and their mean
Sometimes along our journey there comes a time when a choice has to be made about how much effort we are putting into something. I’m sure you’ve all had the experience of wanting something so badly that you would do just about anything to have it or make it happen. Determination is one of the most important keys for success in any area of your life, but what happens when you try to make something happen because it’s what you want, yet nothing about it is falling into place?
Everyone dreams! If you are sleeping normally at night (that is, your sleep is not affected by drugs, alchohol, depression or sleep apnea) you are dreaming for at least an hour and a half per night. Somewhere between four and seven times per night, you will enter a period of REM sleep and ...
The Method: You must be willing to stay in bed an extra 3 minutes each morning: Those first minutes after you wake are vital. It cannot be put off. Your hopes of snaring that dream fade as soon as you are vertical. 3 minutes = 180 seconds sounds easy but it is a real commitment. We are a highly pressured society and most Americans are sleep deprived: We are trained to get up and go. The tools of the trade: Keep a pen and paper or your journal by your bedside so that you can r
Over many years I have had and heard of numerous dreams about cars, taking place in cars, around cars and parking lots, cars with flat tires, cars going too fast or backwards, flying cars, wrecked cars, and on and on. Because so much of contemporary life depends on cars as the major means of transportations, it isn’t surprising that we frequently dream of them. In some cases they can even stand for the condition of the body, but often they allude to our movement, our modus operandi or particularly established method of getting around in life.
What problem would you solve if you could do it in a dream? During sleep our minds can innovate, create, and solve problems. This is the same process only in a different state as a conscious right brain shift or a left brain suspension that our minds do while awake. This is how our mind solves problems during the day. Research shows that this sleep time mental processing is essential to mental health and contributes to physical health. Here's the good news. The problem solv
Lowriders are classic cars or trucks whose suspension system has been modified so that it rides at a very low level to the ground. With the use of modern day hydraulics, users have height adjustable suspension. Most of the lowriders are vintage cars of the 1940’s to 1960’s.nnnLowering cars to almost the sidewalk level and customizing them dramatically has been a status symbol. Lowriders signify prestige. In the 1940's people had to wait for Sundays to catch a glim
In a special room in my house, I have the following saying framed, “Love me when I least deserve it, because that’s when I need it the most.” I almost cried when I found this piece, knowing that I have been both the one who needed to feel loved, and the one who needed to share love with someone else.
Shakespeare got it right. Sleep, which Macbeth famously says he has murdered, is 'the death of each day's life, sore labor's balm'. It repairs, and knits up again that frayed sleeve of our minds that has been worn through during the labors of the day. But it's also much more than this. I've worked for decades on the way sleep can put us right with ourselves. Even if we don't recall our dreams they still communicate with us about important things, working at a pre-verbal level
A reader asked: âCan you tell me what a burning tree signifies in a dream?ânn nnDream interpretation can be interesting, tricky, multidimensional, revealing and difficult. When trying to interpret a dream, the most important thing to remember is that dream symbols can mean many things, all at the same time. In other words, each image you see in your dream has multiple interpretations â and all of them correct.nn For instance, here are three of the ways I look at dream i
Destiny Dreams empower us to change our lives. They motivate us to pursue our heartâs desire. Destiny Dreams give us hope to achieve great things. Our Destiny Dreams point us to our various destinies in life. What is a Destiny Dream? Simply put, it's a reoccurring dream of living a fulfilled life. A life we can live if we don't let lack or circumstance stop us from believing in our dreams. Many have let the lack of something or some situation cause them to right-off thei
There have been many times in my life that I have operated from the belief that no matter what it was I wanted to do or put out into the world, it had to be perfect before I could ever share it. I wasn’t going to launch my website, write any articles or hold a teleseminar until I was already well established in my field. I would sit and fantasize about the “someday” when I could do what I loved, and what things would look like when… But then I had that big “ah-ha” moment.
You've probably heard of cosmic ordering or watched The Secret, or use the Law of Attraction on a daily basis. But if not, you need to know that if you learn how to tell the Universe what you want, you can easily manifest it into reality. Religious people understand the theory of asking (praying) for what they want. Others understand the concept that if you don't ask, you probably won't get! And it's almost that simple with the theory of cosmic ordering - although it's not a theory, it's a proven scientific fact that you CAN get what you want!

Symbols and images are known to evoke deep emotional responses on all of us, which is why watching television shows including the News can be so addicting. Television and video game producers are masters at getting, and holding our attention, and there is nothing wrong with that. However, what you may not be aware of is the fact that the choices you make regarding which shows to watch may actually be lowering your vibrations, and thus affecting you in unhealthy ways.
Pegasus & Tiny People: An Essay on a Dream Group Experience by Deborah DeNicola www/intuitivegateways.com I first encountered Robert Bosnak’s dream methods at the C. G. Jung Institute in Boston and was later invited in to a private dream group that met in his home in the western suburbs of Boston. I must say that this group went deeper into the unconscious lives of the group members.
SEARCH FOR MEANING Many Americans are searching for deeper meaning in their lives. Just recently, a TV news survey asked viewers what one thing would most improve the quality of their life. The most frequent answer was “greater meaning in life.” People from all walks of life are looking for more out of existence th

We spend thirty three percent of our lives in the sleep state. What if we could have the ability to in some way still make use of that precious time to evolve and enlarge our gifts? This is the very important mystery that propels people young and old who are focused on controlling dreams. Indeed, how to contend with this unique practice? How do we, in a manner of speaking, increase the time of our lives? We're about to assess a few elementary processes in this post. Anythi
I consider myself as open minded and although I myself have never experienced Astral Projection does not mean that it is not a real phenomena. Many people from different cultures all over the world have claimed to have experienced AstroProjection also known as Astral Travel or an Out Of Body Experience, some of which say that they have not only experienced an Out Of Body Experience but with practices you can control the experience of this phenomena. OK thatâs great but what
In a dream, Iâm walking through a beautiful space with tall windows from floor to ceiling. There are no square corners anywhere, and every room flows gracefully into the next. A metal spiral staircase leads to a bedroom with a stunning mountain view. A young boy is at my side walking through the apartment with me. I tell him that I love the openness and want to live there. I wake up from the dream still feeling the happiness of being in that space. My logic mind tells me th
When studying dreams it is easy to forget the obvious. The dream mind - or the unconscious mind - is the home of ideas. Here we form complex conceptual ideas. For some people these will be intellectual ideas linked to logic. Others use the power of the mind to form creative and imaginative ideas. The link between dreams and learning has long been established. The dream mind also deals with emotions. It is easy to dismiss these as vague and in brain processes a lower process.
Sleep disorders are a widely spread problem amongst many of today's ambitious business people and young driven enthusiast. Being a diagnose mostly related to anxiety and stress as prime factors for its appearance, sleep disorders are what we call today a sickness of the open-minded. According to some specialists, it is nature's way to tell us we need to go easier on life. Undertaking too many assignments and pushing ourselves harder might be a one-way ticket to success in the
Dreams - what are they? Dreams are different things to different people. Thank goodness we all have different dreams. The world would be a pretty dull place if we all had the same dreams. Dreams are a series of images or pictures that we can see. They can be hopes or aspirations that we have. Dreams are something we have longed for, maybe even since we were children. Dreams are something you can see yourself doing in the future. I can see myself living in financial freedom -
"Always carry a notebook. And I mean always. The short-term memory only retains information for three minutes; unless it is committed to paper you can lose an idea forever." -- Will Self The most powerful, life-changing book you'll ever read is your own dream journal. And keeping a dream journal happens to be one of the best ways to build your dream-recall muscles. So if you don't have one, get one! If you are in a pinch, simply use a yellow legal pad with an ordinary pen

Relationships take time to develop, there’s no doubt about it. They require care, focus, dialog, patience, and an open mind. Often, we have to teach ourselves how to hear with a more sensitive ear, or see with more insightful eyes. Sometimes we have to trust our intuitions and follow the invisible pulls even when we don’t know where they are taking us…and so it is with dreamwork.
