Dream On

No one knows exactly why we dream and many have posited reasons as to the purpose of dreaming. The popular magazine Psychology Today, in an article described dreams among other definitions, as a form of consciousness that unites past, present, and future in processing information from the first two, and preparing for the third. I particularly like this explanation. It pleases me to think of my dreams as processing important information that can serve me as I maneuver in the physical plane.

So are you a dreamer, a dreamer in the sleep state or waking state? People with a strong Neptune in their astrological chart are dreamers and having Neptune in your twelfth house is even more potent for dreaming and the ability to distill meaning from dreams.

On occasions, you have a dream, so vivid and so real that it wakes you up and cause you to spend time trying to figure out the meaning. We know that most times dreams cannot be taken literally. For example, a few nights ago, I had a dream about trying to swim in a dirty pool and for the life of me, I could not understand why I would even want to stick my toe in such a place. I do not even like swimming pools, worse a dirty one. The dream was so vivid that I woke with a start. Luckily, I immediately knew the meaning of the dream and I was not pleased. I had earlier asked my 5-D helpers for answers to a problem I was experiencing and they send me one in my dreams. I was so distraught that I politely asked them if they would be so kind as to make answers less traumatic the next time around.

So dreaming is important for answers to problems, to shift through the rubble of our daily lives, and come up with solutions that we may not have thought about in the waking state.

Dreaming connects us to our Higher Selves, when during sleep the barrier being removed so that communication can flow freely.

Dreaming puts us in touch with our ancestors and other departed souls who may want to communicate a message to us that we would have otherwise resisted.

Keeping a dream diary is a good idea. Upon waking, record your dreams. Sometimes you may not remember the exact dream but you recall the emotions that were stirred up from the dream. Try translating them into words as well. If writing is difficult, make a dream tape. Over time, go back to these recordings and you will be surprised as to how the interpretations and answers become clear.
