Dreamer's Response: Dream #7

2008-10-21T21:12:00.000-07:00

Here's what struck me about this dream...It's employee discount day, so people are getting something for less, getting rewarded for hard work, getting special treatment because of their dedication. So there's some reason I'm being rewarded for working hard.There's a festive mood, almost like a party, so something in my psyche is telling me there's reason to celebrate or at least be happy. All

Dream #7 -- I Burn My Leg

2008-10-07T10:11:00.000-07:00

This is a dream from yours truly...have fun interpreting!Lance (my husband) and I are at Orchard Supply Hardware. It's employee discount day and we're there. We get to use the discount. Old employees have come back to the store to say hello to those working there and the mood is festive. We're looking into a new heater. I go over to try it out and somehow I burn my leg. It's a tiny burn, but I

I was enchanted by Toni's dream and found it to be quite powerful. It's a dream that one could work with for years and continue to get new meaning from.If it were my dream, it would have been about about change, and Toni writes that not long after she had the dream, she had the "big breakup" of her 20s. The dream features seven waterfalls, and seven is the number of luck, as well as spirit and

The Importance of Dreams

2008-09-24T11:10:00.000-07:00

"Dreams are the creative store that is true wealth. They reside at the human edge of the holy. From the unknown, from eternity, into the restless minds of sleepers, their light is given off. In the human body, worlds are charted, wounds healed, illnesses reversed. In our vulnerable sleep, those hours when anything could happen. Like dark matter in the universe, dreams have mass and presence, even

Dream #6 -- Seven Waters Fall

2008-09-17T11:03:00.000-07:00

Here is another dream from Toni. Follow the guidelines and have fun interpreting this dream!I was walking somewhere very lush and green--not tropical, but more like the Pacific Northwest, and there was the sound of water running nearby. My best friend at the time was with me, and I could see waterfalls. A voice spoke from somewhere above us, like a voiceover in a documentary or something. It said

It was great to see the different perspectives on this dream! Toni has responded to Sarah's and my comments on her dream, and this is what she had to say:"I've been feeling stagnant and burned out in my 'day job' as a writer for about a year now. Earlier this year, not one, but two ideas for novels literally fell into my head and I started writing. And writing. And haven't stopped. I wonder if

Dream #5: House On the Water

This dream was submitted by Toni. Kindly remember the guidelines to the right and have fun with this dream!Last night, I dreamed my husband, three sons and I were visiting a friend of mine named Dean from law school in Kansas City (I have no idea if Dean lives in KC, but we just got back from a trip there and I'd been discussing Dean one night over dinner while we were there). His house was on

I found Sarah's dream fascinating and I think the layers could be peeled for a long time. Here is what Sarah had to say about her dream and my comments on it:" Your comments on this dream were really helpful. This was one of those dreams that struck me as being really random when I had it, but a few things you pointed out ended up making it great food for thought. The diamonds—I

Dream #4: Diamond Dream

This dream was submitted by Sarah. Kindly remember the guidelines in the right column when you are posting comments. Thanks!I’m in a futuristic skyscraper. The building is brand new, and it’s all condos. High-powered elevators quickly carry people from floor to floor. However, there is concern among people waiting for the elevators that they’ll be mugged – apparently this is a common danger

I got some really interesting feedback on this dream that helped me get a better hold on it.Liliana wrote me an email with this insight: "I read discount as 'doesn't count,' and 'slips' as mistakes. The slips were pink and pink to me means innocence, so whatever the mistakes were, they were innocent, so don't worry about them."Denny had these comments: "A hardware store represents the masculine

Dream #3: Hardware Store

2008-08-15T11:42:00.000-07:00

Please refer to the guidelines on the right and enjoy interpreting this dream...I walk up to a hardware store. I see a big neon-pink sign in the window that says, "Discounts For Pink Slips" -- they are giving discounts to people who have been laid off. I am there to return something. I get in line. The people working there are busy, but none seem to be interested in the customers in line. They

I really enjoyed Sarah's comments on this dream, and I felt they were on the mark. She mentioned that the setting is inspirational, that the children are uninhibited, and that the witness makes the choice to follow the children right down into the center of the pool at the bottom of the waterfall. And here is the most important part: that the dream is about deciding to follow one's bliss.I very

Dream #2: The Waterfall

2008-08-01T11:44:00.000-07:00

Just a reminder of how this works: use "projective dreamwork" to interpret the dream. Check the guidelines in the sidebar for more information. To give your input on the dream, leave a comment.I am in a park, maybe in Hawaii, definitely somewhere tropical. I am standing at the edge of a cliff. When I look down I see a waterfall. The area is basically a big circle carved into the earth, and water

Thanks to Pixie and Sarah, who were the first two brave souls to participate in this grand experiment I call a blog. Your comments were enlightening and helpful.I agree that the dream is about a temporary state and that it is about nourishment. There are definitely things in my life that no longer nourish me, but they are still around, so I am going to look at how to cleanse those out of my

Dream #1: Can't Eat

2008-07-22T13:38:00.000-07:00

So here are the rules: use the "projective dreamwork" style to interpret the dream (see previous post). To give your input on the dream, leave a comment. In a few days I will check back in, read the comments, and write an addition to this post that synthesizes what everyone thought the dream was about. Then I will add my own two cents. Yay!Dream #1:I am either at school or staying in a dorm or

If It Were My Dream...

2008-07-22T13:31:00.000-07:00

Whenever I do a dream group, I always use projective dreamwork. This is the type of dreamwork I would like to do here.Let me explain a bit more. When someone reads a dream to you, you immediately begin imagining this dream in your mind. In a way, you have the dream. Then, when it comes time to interpret the dream, you are using the images you saw and the feelings you experienced. You don't know
