Dreams are a treasured source of knowledge given to us while we sleep. The conscious mind cannot get in the way to distort their message. They are a direct channel to your spiritual self and can tell you what you are doing right or what needs to be changed. As one third of our life is spent in the sleep state it is to our advantage to use this time for insight. Dreams help us answer the age old questions of "Why are we here" and "Who am I". They know no boundaries between young and old, rich or poor, races, religions and nationalities. A picture is worth more than a thousand words and the symbols are invaluable to anyone who takes the time and effort to interpret them. If you are troubled by recurring dreams then you can find out what message is being given and learn that these dreams will stop, giving you relief. Our daily life and spiritual evolvement are connected with our dreams and they can help us if we work with them.

About Dreams

We Are Interdimensional Beings. Dreams begin to awaken us to the fact that we are spiritual or interdimensional beings, in the third dimension, but not of it. They are like a letter from the higher self to the conscious mind. They awaken us to higher resources of knowledge within ourselves, giving us information on what is happening in our daily lives and how to meet and move through the problems that face us. Dreams also give us information on the future, so we are forced to ask, "how could I know a thing like that?" A dream helps us realize that we are here only temporarily on the stage of waking reality. What we call life is really a school, or a "remembering" of what is truthfully real There are many schools or levels of consciousness in the universe, and earth is one of the most important. During our sojourn here we are learning more about the true nature of our beings. We are learning that we are infinite creative energy or love energy, and that all of our hurts, disappointments and illusions come from a failure to recognize this truth of who and what we are. The name of the game is growth. In all our experiences we either go through or grow through them. If we just go through them, then we will repeat them again and again until we learn the lesson behind the appearances. If we grow through them, we are free to move on to the next step of the learning process.

Dreams and The Death State

Spirit would have us believe that the only difference between the death state and the dream state is that the silver cord, which is much like an umbilical cord connecting the soul with the body, is severed in death. This cord allows the spirit to travel in realms and planes beyond the physical at night, and to receive higher teachings. As you go to sleep at night, and your consciousness leaves the physical body, you are experiencing the same thing as death. As you gain more and more control of the dream state you will realize that there is no such thing called death as we are taught to believe. There is no death, only a change of awareness. Gaining more control of dreams enables us to realize that we truly are interdimensional beings. The life energy, or God, is the changeless medium of being which underlies what we call "life" and what we call "death". God is the medium of all experiences, levels and energies. Eventually you begin to identify with the eternal nature of your being, rather than the stages you are going through or the particular level of consciousness in which you happen to find yourself.

Dreams and Cycles

We go right along with nature in our cycles for learning, growth, resting and integrating. We have yearly and monthly cycles, not to mention the seven year cycles of changing into something completely new. Dreaming follows the natural cycles of growth during the year. From Spring to Autumn you are in an accelerated period of learning. Your lessons are coming very fast, and the energy is heightened. You will be given teaching dreams that show you when you are missing a lesson. It is more difficult to remember dreams during the Spring and Summer months unless you are programming and working with them. The Winter months are usually when you have the clearest and strongest dreams. This is your spiritual or inner growth time. Whatever lessons you did not learn from Spring to Autumn, will be back next Spring. You are being prepared for the next growing season and are being shown all the things you need to work on. During the Winter your inner schooling is intensified. You will be more apt to remember dreams, even though you are not working with them. The Winter is also seed planting time. You are getting ready to blossom forth into Spring. This is a time to set your goals for the Spring, ask for insight, and determine your path. Dreams are also affected by the lunar cycle. Five days before a full moon dreams begin to get stronger and clearer, peaking with the full moon energy. If you are not centred, the full moon can scatter your energy and your dreams may seem strange. You may become depressed during a full moon cycle, or experience energy fluctuating to extremes. Again, the more centred and in control of your own life, the less you are affected by outside influences. Instead, you are able to use all energies to your advantage, inviting them to heighten and awaken you to new understandings rather than getting thrown off base.
