As a child did you ever play the game "tag"? I certainly did. I can still remember the screams and yelps of delight and fright as the sun went down on a hot summer night, sticky arms and legs from sweat, grass-stained knees, tousled near-dreadlocked hair stuck together with watermelo Now and Laters, scuffed bare feet scrambling in a blur to out pace "It." Once tagged by "It" the tables would abruptly turn and, in a flash, the chasee became the chaser . The job of "It" was to

Much creativity is contained in the unconscious. By freeing our dreams from the prison of our ego’s perspective, we realize more creative power through the healing faculty of imagination. Dutch Jungian Analyst, Robert Bosnak has developed "Embodied Dreaming," a technique for working with dreams imaginatively in groups. We sit with eyes closed in a low lit room and are led back into a dream, sinking into a consciousness where active imagination awakens naturally.
"In the measurement world, we set a goal and strive to achieve it. In the universe of possibility, we set the context and let life unfold." -- B. Zander The Founding Fathers of America didn't create the "Intention of Independence," the "Wouldn't It Be Nice if There Was Independence" or the "I Sure Hope That One Day There Will Be Independence." They created the Declaration of Independence, and thus a new world was born. Stronger than setting an intention to be a powerful drea
The candle is a very influential symbol in our conscious mind. It may represent is the light in a world that would otherwise be dark; it speaks to the deepest part of our soul. For this reason the candles has such a profound meaning in so many cultures all over the world. Candles can be found in the ceremonies of just about every religion. Judaism: The candle is a significant symbol in Judaism; one is lit each Friday night to mark the beginning of the Sabbath. On Saturday eve
Who is God? Some might reply the 'Maker' others the 'Judge' and so on. We seem to have these ways of speaking of God in incomplete and partial truths that leaves one wondering what the true nature of God really is. On one occasio Jesus was called good and his startling reply was, 'why do you call me good, there is only one good'. What a profound statement. Consider the source if you will. Only one good, the Heavenly Father, as Jesus revealed might cause some to question. In our culture we often speak of someone who has shown goodness to us through some act or gift given.
It always surprises me when people question whether or not dreams have meaning. I want to respond, Does your life have meaning? Are the thoughts that pass through your consciousness during your waking hours just random firings of neurons, or do they mean something about who you are and what you want? Can you learn anything from the pattern of events in your day, both those that seem to be under your control and those that seem not to be? It's up to you whether you want to see
We are all faced with things we have to do all the time; it’s just part of life. But sometimes, it can feel a bit overwhelming and when it does, adding one more thing can be the straw that broke the camels back. Plus, it lowers your emotions and your energy. You might hear yourself saying things like this,rn~ I just want to stay home but I have to go to the store today.rn~ I have to go pick up the kids from school.rn~ I’m so tired but I have to cook a good meal for my family tonight.rn~ Ugg, I have to go to work/school today.r
At the center of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want. -- Lao Tzu Everyone who has seen the movie "The Secret" and talks with me about dream work asks me, "How can I program my dreams to create the life of my dreams?" The most important things to know about programming your dreams is... that the moments bookending sleep are prime real estate. These are the moments most people watch the news or read the newspaper and fill their mind
DREAM INTERPRETATIONrnSo youâve had a dream that youâre naked while youâre sitting at the table filled with family and friends at a holiday gathering. Theyâre all looking at you expectantly. Itâs so intense it wakes you up. Now youâre awake and wondering what in tarnation that dream was about. âNakedâ dreams are pretty self-evident in their meaning. In all likelihood, youâre feeling anxious and guilty because youâre harboring a secret about yourself that y
For years clients have asked me when and if a space clearing should be done. Their other two questions are: 1. Should it be done on a new or old home and a place of business? 2. How do you do it and/or will I do one for them? I have done several with amazing results however you can do it ...
In looking at my dreams, I often see reflections of my negative actions, thoughts, and feelings. By examining them closely and being completely honest with myself, I’ve come to discover who I am, why I am who I am, and more importantly, who I am meant to be. This is an ongoing and continuing process; I am forever changing for the better, which is also reflected in my dreams. This became evident a few months ago when I had a dream that I titled, Another Tidal Wave, which reminded me of a previously recurring dream titled, Water, Water Everywhere. A comparison of the two was very revealing.r
Lucidity is about being conscious and self-aware in your dreams. Christopher Nolan’s Inception has beautifully brought out this concept of ‘lucid dreaming’. Unlike "Inception- the movie" we do not have the fictional piece of technology to enable shared dreams, but we can always work towards making life more fulfilling by utilizing this concept of lucidity. Lucid Dreaming: What is it? Lucid dream is a dream in which you are aware that you are dreaming. When you drift off into
ââDreams are symbolic in order that they cannot be understood; in order that the wish, which is the source of the dream, may remain unknownââ ~ Carl Jung Interpretation of dreams was used for many centuries by kings and warriors to plan attacks to their enemies and predict the future. Priests, magicians and people who had the ability to interpret dreams were considered divine and were extremely powerful at their time. In the modern world of computers and technology, d
Back in 1995 I was sweet-talked by my then-boyfriend into seeing the movie Strange Days, a sci-fi flick directed by Kathryn Bigelow, produced by James Cameron and staring Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Lewis. I'm not a big sci-fi fan -- more the chick-flick type -- but I must admit this movie left its mark and has haunted me (in a good way) ever since. Strange Days takes us on a high-speed chase into a future black market where troubled ex-cop (Fiennes) pushes a drug more powerf

As I see it, the real function of the arts is to permeate the environment of the world with a metaphysical reality so that man is not alone with the ego. –Cecil Collins (Or “woman,” I might add, in the case of this story . . . ) So often we wake from a dream thinking, Oh I just dreamt that because that’s what I did yesterday–what a dumb dream! And we forget it in a moment. But even those banal dreams can have beneficent messages. Messages that sometimes may make a difference in a decision or choice our conscious mind is considering.
Dream Attractions nnSome of my most transformational experiences have been heralded by Spirit Animals and dreams. My first Spirit Animal was the wolf. When I was fifteen I dreamed of them constantly and then could not stop my mind from wandering back to my dreams. Like the tongue that endlessly explores the empty cavity of a lost toothâ¦every time my focus slipped and I became lost in thought, I was back with the wolves.nnI was practically getting beat over the head with the
When lucid dreaming, we are consciously aware of being in the dream state. We know that we dream and that everything around us is part of the dreaming.nnFor the past thirty years, I have dreamt lucidly, and learned a valuable technique to make flying in the dream easy and fun. I call it, Concentrated Focus with Intent (CFI).nnI first realized the Concentrated Focus with Intent technique when I found myself teaching it to others in my lucid dreams. For example, I would become
In 1986, I decided to drop out of high school and see what the world had to offer. This led to learning how to be a waitress and bartender and working at two excellent resorts.

uncovering TRUTH catharsis awaits leading back to YOU I'm serious, why should you bother to remember, interpret and listen to your dreams? It's a lot of work, what will you get from it?

There are known cultures, such as the Senio Tribe in Malaysia who after being observed in the 1930’s have been said, upon waking, to share their dreams as a community, as part of the beginning of each day. These were a people who existed in harmony with nature and with their neighbors, and whose amiability has been attributed to their way of working with dreams. Over time, they came to be known as the Dream People. These were a people who knew the importance of dreaming, and used it as an integral part of their community existence.
Question: I was wondering how you explain dreams which predict an event which then occurs, or dreams which are synchronistic with the dreams of another person.rn Answer: rnOur individual consciousness participates in the universal consciousness that governs all creation encompassing all time and space. When we have a prophetic dream or an experience of synchronicity, we get a glimpse of that reality of consciousness beyond our limited awareness. It gives us a small sense of t
The activity of the unconscious mind goes on all of the time whether we are aware of it or not. This activity includes many layers of perception that have to do with connecting the past and the present, the present and the future, and with integrating the meaning of events, emotions, and circumstances into our psychic structure and energy body. nnHistorically, what has been referred to as the 'unconscious mind' related primarily to repressed or suppressed emotions or attitude

They were after me! Dressed in army fatigues, helmeted and holding rifles with sharp bayonets extended before them, they were running up the stairs, getting closer and closer. They were barking, "Achtung! Achtung!" I was terrified. I call this dream and its variations my "Nazi dreams." They occurred frequently when I was younger, then tapered off gradually and resurface every once in awhile. My mother, in her 90's and suffering from Alzheimer's, is a Holocaust survivor. Mos

Most dreams are a jumbled mess that the majority of us fail to even remember a few short moments after we wake up. Then there are those that jolt us out of our sleep, dripping sweat, and shaking uncontrollably. These types of dreams usually involve some sort of nightmarish disaster that seems a little too real for comfort. Once we are back in the real world and realize that we are still tucked up in our cozy little beds, those dreams eventually fade away. What would you do, t
In my field, I am often asked the question, “How do I learn to say “no” sometimes?” I believe the best way to answer this question is to get to the core of it, which I believe is to instead ask, “Am I making this choice based on approval, or from my authentic self?” Let me explain.
Emily and Isabel : Literary Heroines in Dreams Dreaming or awake, we perceive only events that have meaning to us. — Jane Roberts Emily Many women writers I know, and not just those of my generation, still struggle with giving themselves permission to write, which is tantamount to permission to believe in themselves. It’s true those of us who came of age in the sixties and seventies with all the motifs of liberation, still looked for men to complete them, And we wondered if we could really speak our truth.

"Though we appear to be sleeping, there is an inner wakefulness that directs the dream... that will eventually startle us back to the truth of who we are." -- Rumi When you nestle yourself into bed, turn off the bedside lamp and close your eyes to your daytime reality, your "conscious self" goes to sleep. Meanwhile, your "dreaming self" slips out of the covers and tiptoes upstairs to the attic of your mind to explore the enchanted realm of dreams. Within this noctu al terri

Dreams bring messages from deep inside, leading to self-understanding and transformation. Although dreams address all levels of consciousness, everyday dreams tend to focus on lifeâs unresolved emotional situations. Many of our emotional difficulties in life result from daily experiences that threaten our inner beliefs, which include our view of ourselves and of what life is all about. Sometimes, these threats are valid, but often, they occur because our internal beliefs ha
Sometimes a dream may appear negative when you first express what you’ve experienced such as:" I am in a gymnasium with homeless people . . .

COOKIE’S DOVES; ON BIRTHING THE FEMININE What your unconscious wants you to know is not often discovered from the perspective of the personal ego. The entire dream is our creation but often we don’t relate to the “bad guy” or the “monster” or the “beautiful tree” from deep inside these figures. Through a slowly evoked visualization, I lead dreamers into discovering an “Ah Ha!” moment, which has not been available to their conscious mind.
Many years ago, I attended a seminar given by Caroline Myss in Los Angeles, CA. During the course of the seminar, one young man raised his hand and asked a question. It seems he was confused, not yet knowing what to do with his life and facing a variety of job offers and opportunities. But he was stuck because he had no idea which one to take. He listed them off, one by one, there were five total. He asked Caroline what he should do, how could he possibly know which one would be the right one, the best one, when he wasn’t even sure of his direction.
