DREAMS

We have been taught to think that dreams are mostly a projection of the subconscious mind but there is so much more.

In the shamanic perspective we have the night dream and we have the awaken dream. The awaken dream is what we call "reality" There is a very strong and mystical connection between our night dream and our awaken dream. Sometimes this connection is clear and sometimes it is a mystery but they are always intertwined. If you want to start exploring the realm of the dreams, the first thing I would recommend for you to do is to have a notebook next to your bed. When you wake up in the morning try to recall the night dream and if you remember it- write it down. This isn't just about scribbling down weird stories. This is you tapping into a whole new dimension. Your daytime reality gets a dose of dreamy magic, and your nighttime journeys start making a bit more sense. For most of us it is a pretty challenging transition- switching the perspective from what we call "reality" to "awaken dream", but give it a try. Next time you meet a challenge in your life - a person or a situation, try to think about this as a dream and ask yourself: "if it was a night dream, and I was waking up in the morning and contemplating about this dream- what insights might I have?" I promise you that if you practice this perspective more and more magic will start to appear in your life.
