*this post accidentally went out last week - but it was supposed to go out today, as it's connected to yesterday's post.
Doing Dream Work puts us in the process of really listening to and connecting with the soul of our dreams. This puts us in the process of healing and growth and really listening to and trusting our callings. This is A LOT!
Sometimes, like my meditation yesterday, it's all weird and there are no solid or helpful answers or ideas.
So sometimes while we're doing the practices we're not seeing benefits or results. Still - doing the practices is keeping us in the process. That's always the most important part.
Ideas and shifts can come outside of our practices. It's like the practices feed the process but the process is going to do its own thing, we don't control that. (We only control how quickly we move through it by how diligently we show up to practice + engage)
After my weird meditation yesterday, I woke up today with a thought in my head:
It betrays the dignity of the human spirit to live and dream from within the current paradigm.
The dream I am working with now, the thing my dream scoffed at yesterday and called "a small shift" and said "it's already in process don't even worry about it" is about money and business and how I am switching things up to match where I am now.
And I understand what my dream was saying now.
My dreams are SOUL CALLING. This is sacred creative important work.
How I pay my bills is not sacred.
Yes - CARING FOR MYSELF and HAVING MY NEEDS MET is all sacred because all of life is sacred.
But... it's like dreaming of an organized and well functioning home. Washing the dishes is going to be a part of that but is washing your dishes YOUR SACRED DREAM?
Not to say it's not important and worthy.
But it serves a greater dream, and my dream was asking me to focus on the greater dream.
Which is.... I am still figuring that out. With so much in flux in my life this could take a while?
AND there is the part of my dream that never changes: to do this work and share it and hold space for others to do it with me. To keep exploring my creativity.
Dreaming really isn't ever black and white. Keep doing the Dream Lab practice regularly!
