On Fridays I do these "Dream Status Report" prompts to help me have more clarity, momentum and groundedness on my path.

There are journaling sheets for doing this! These are available for everyone, not just membership members. Download them here.

I had such a good week.

We had some huge rain storms which put out a lot our huge forest fires! We didn't have a smoke day all week and I went for so many gorgeous bike rides and I felt that amazing way I feel when I am consistently getting enough movement.

I am working on my 2 new projects and just feeling so inspired and happy AND working slower than I ever have. After all this time of resisting the need to slow down this week I luxuriated in it.

My dream keeps wanting me to know that I AM WRONG.

Like - the assumptions I make about what I need to do are wrong, creative dreaming is an ALCHEMICAL process. Things shift and change as you BE WITH them.

There is still a part of me who automatically thinks I need to work harder or smarter or something when my dream says... nope. There is this other option that you can't even see right now. Keep going on this path and you'll find a mushroom to eat or a potion to drink that will change things so dramatically you won't believe it.

I am re-starting my Dream Book and also doing that soooo sloooooow.

I re-read the whole thing this week and was like "WHAT?" I thought I picked up the wrong journal and maybe this was from a few years ago but sure enough, this was my current Dream Book. It just felt like it was written by a different person.

This is partly because this year I have been experimenting with doing Dream Book in a planner, and I have that huge 9x11" daily planner I've been using for that, alongside the huge daily planner for the Year of Hope - so a LOT of journaling is happening outside of the official Dream Book.

And partly because divorce brings a lot of change. Besides everything else that is happening.

I am so happy to see my dreams and my self changing in ways that I don't recognize things I wrote earlier this year.

My focus for next week: re-start Dream Book. Spend some time with those initial pages where you really define the dream and the dream self and look at the obstacles, etc. Having that all written out makes a HUGE difference.
