Keep Dreaming
There are times when we become more aware of how our dreams can bring us very profound information. We may get a feeling of dejavoux, or perhaps, be in the middle of some task in our day, when a piece of some dream we had the night before pops into our head. We take a moment and wonder, ‘what does that mean?’ , and often laugh at how odd the circumstances were.
For quite a while I have not really remembered much about what I dream...so I think. Occasionally I have very small sections of something much more detailed, come into my memory. I would try to focus on this unusal piece, and still, wake up forgetting even this. Before this seeming blockage started happening, I would write my dreams down when I awoke in the night, or at the very least, put down key words that might bring back the dream upon awakening.
Lately, at the suggestion of a friend, I have concentrated on asking for more clarity, before I fall asleep. I try to be specific, feeling slightly silly and absolutely amazed in the same moment. It seems to be working, but as always, dreams have their own language and I must become more practiced at understanding what is being shown to me.
As far as not remembering, I think we always process in our sub conscience mind, but we aren’t always aware of what took place in our conscience existence. Our brains seem to be so large and mysterious in their capacity, that processing can easily be accomplished in one part, while the another part is on vacation.
It has been said that the dream world is the reality and that our everyday lives are the dream. I like to think of the dreams as guidance.... perhaps even divine in nature. After all, aren’t we all part of the divine plan, with God in every particle of existence?
The Native Americans knew well the importance of dreams. They understood that the dream language is the universal language of truth, and that this is a sacred gift. Knowing this can only allow one to see beyond what we think our capacity of seeing is.
Dreams seem to hold a precious key to vision. With vision there is no need for greed or violence... only love.
One of my friends (who is probably one of the best dreamers in the universe) printed and distributed to her friends this phrase after it was given to her in a dream:
“The Love of All Moments!”
A message, clearly coming from a higher source that is for all of us to see. I hope to keep dreaming.
