Messages from Dream World: What do they mean?

Dream interpretation has changed during the last 20 years.

It's not that interpreters have lost their usefulness, but the meanings and imagery has grown.  There are more types of images available for the mind to use.

The mind vents, predicts, or resolves issues that confront us during our waking life, with dreams.  Think of them as your personal psychic safety valve!  Imagery is used because the part of the brain that is at work during dream time, is very primitive.  The customary meanings of dream images are based on another time, when there were no computers and the stresses of daily life were a bit simpler. To compensate for this change, many interpreters add numerology to their interpretive process.

When you are in need, consider a two stage interpretation with the first part being live, and the second part consisting of a numerology chart by e-mail.  This way, you are assured that your imagery is balanced with adjustments for modern life and the cycles you are working through.

 

What is "The Secret"?

I have watched people, terribly impressed with "The Secret", run out and buy every possible book and DVD to get them on the path of easy money, easy living, and easy relating.  I am amazed at how much civilization has created such a huge flock of sheep, willing to purchase rather than stop and think about what these quasi-new tricks are to create a better life.

There's nothing new!  The supposedly scientific findings some of the "secret-gurus" are touting are based on what people are choosing NOT to give attention to....which is a balanced look at reality, and the acceptance of personal limitations.  I dare say one would have better results doing an honest self reappraisal and changing personal habits or poor mental and emotional hygiene that get in their way.

The steps in creating the circumstances addressed in "The Secret" and its myriad knock offs are as simple as writing lists of affirmations and reciting them, dressing to imress those who you must, being quite and listening to others speak, taking credit for the accomplishments that make you happy, and celebrating your personal victories when they occur.

The ancient methods are the same as are found in witchcraft, ceremonial magick, and preparing to run a marathon.  The reality you create is based on the terminology you use, the colors you choose, and the scent that triggers primal responses.  All of this can be wrapped around a core of simple conmon sense.

In the end, you will discover the secret that has been stolen from your natural rights to be self defined, happy, healthy, and successful.  You will discover the love that opens doors as son as you realize one basic ancient truth.  What is that truth?

There is no secret!

Warm weather changes everything.

During the winter the lonliness can be oppressive but warm weather brings opportunities otherwise denied.

If you have been serving a lost cause in the form of a difficult relationship, take heart.  With new mobility will come thenew relationship you crave.  Don't rush things!

Avoid the impulse to define your new found love interest and soak in the wonder of the moment.  Limiting yourself now will slow what the universe has in store for you.  Savor every moment in the sun, revel in every warm summer evening with slow dances and secret whispers.  Let things develop naturally and accept attention from those willing to give it.  Live as nature intended, be one with the summer's breeze.

Relationships: Letting the end be the new beginning

Beginnings are delicate times....

I always wonder about that moment a person who doesn't normally seek intuitive guidance, realizes that is their best hope or regaining their personal balance.  Is it akin to the realization that one needs a psychologist?  Is it that moment when they realize that their hope lies in another person and not a celestial being?

 Most first time Seekers are in crises and in a hurry.  Circumstances that took years to develop have reached a critical mass and they want a quick fix.  They want to know that this will either end or their will be a great reward for their perserverance.  Both results are possible  if, and only if, they are ready to actually change.  They  must overcome some deeply ingrained patterns to alter the most likely future that waits them if they do not.

This takes work.  The form that is most effective is usually ritual that helps to displace old thinking with its repetition.  Be it Hail Marys, meditation, casting a full circle,  using aromatherapy, or a combination of similar activities, these all serve to replace your previous thinking.  The  more consitently they are repeated, the better the chances of a new discipline taking hold.

Be sure to remember, a reading doesn't help if you do not  use the information to improve your lot in life.  It doesn't set the future in stone, but should set you on a new path.
