My Dream About Dealing with the Self-Serving Folks

In my dream I am in some large building. I am with a group of people and we are all trying to hide away in a large room that is filled with various types of cushions. It is not clear what we are hiding from. I am about to hide myself by covering myself with cushion when into the room walks a very oversized unattractive woman with skimpy clothing....

Unleashing Greater Love by Processing Hurt and Anger

Love is a very powerful invisible capacity that is potentially available to every human being on the planet (and probably in other star systems as well). It allows us to be attracted to what we are doing, to other humans, and to every living and non-living organism. When the force of attraction is present and activated, love has the ability to allow us to be so fully engaged that time seems to disappear....

How to Avoid Getting Sucked into the Politics and Religion of Being Against…

It is the afternoon on a normal school day, not that much different than any other day. The 2nd grade classroom is a bit chaotic. We are all a bit out of control probably from having had to sit so long in our learning process. I am playing some form of tag, which is clearly not on the teacher's lesson plan....

This is a difficult subject to write about because most of us have the inclination to do things in the wrong way. If you have had a dream about a venomous snake in the past, this post is definitely for you. Suppose you have a really great workplace where you are working with a fantastic team of people who are doing all kinds of creative and interesting new work, the place where a lot of us really thrive....

This is from my daughter's book, Where the Wind Meets the Sky

When you move out of your comfort zone into a new place of learning, of understanding or of feeling, you will have a distinctly uncomfortable feeling as if you are doing something wrong. This is the feeling you should strive for. This is how you know you have moved onto your path and out of the well-marked trail. Be strong. Be bold. Be courageous. Be daring enough to write your trail, to tread your own path, to find your own way. And when those around you revolt against your breaking from the cultural or ancestral trail, pray for them, say, “I love you, you are walking a well-worn path and I love that. Today I move forward closer to my dreams, closer to my goals, closer to my destiny and today I forge my own path.” This is the way to move onward and outward. Be brave. Above all else, be brave.

Two nights ago I had another wild surfing dream where I was not only surfing waves, but also in all kinds of buildings and stairs. You name it, I was surfing on it. If you read the last post, you will know that surfing is a metaphor for riding the cutting edge of your life, and that the real edge for humanity right now is learning how to relate to other human beings....

Last night I dreamed of Godzilla chasing me. It was an odd Godzilla, very mechanical, not animal. Upon reflection, I realized that the Godzilla is inside of me, the part of me that does things for recognition, not service. It prevents going for big goals. I run away and hide from doing big goals like writing because the recognition seeking part of me kills the service to humanity part. It is like a hungry beast. It is much easier for me to see how the rise of the extreme right wing is happening in the world when a part of me has the same motives as those leaders, recognition. I am hoping I can move towards service as a motive instead of recognition.

So a few nights I had a surfing dream the details were not really that clear to me other than I was with my best friend growing up, we were at beach that was like the beaches of my childhood in southern California, and I loved being in the water waiting for the next wave. The dream was entirely positive. …...

Last night I had a very cool dream about flying, superman style. I just decided to start flying, jumped in the air, and then off I went floating way about things and moving effortlessly. When I came upon an obstacle like power lines I just flew right under them as if obstacles were no issue. Flying is in the energy of air elements which are future oriented. When there is so much positive energy like in this dream, it means that the world of possibilities is just wide open and we can act fully on the goals.

What would you go for if you had flying energy? Where does your spirit want to take you?

Last night in my dream, I dreamed of being with some unknown man and one of our dogs. He had a big python that had some kind of purpose. He was telling me how careful we needed to be so that the python did not suddenly get startled and then launch a big attack on us. It made me extremely tense. When the snake came up, it turned out to be much less impressive in size, but I was still tense and fearful.

Since pythons are constrictors, the fear is that of being controlled tightly like wearing a straight jacket when trying to do things. Dogs are symbols of friendship so it is like if I try to be really out there and friendly and go for things in the world, I am very fearful of being constricted.

A fear oriented dream like this comes when the conditions of the original fear, times when leadership figures constricted my actions, is no longer present or no longer a threat, but my mind still thinks it is a threat. When I let go of the feeling of constriction, then I can be unconstrained and fling myself into the great unknown.

What constrains me today? What is it like to throw be unconstrained, less cautious?
