Since no matter how lucid one becomes there will always be material beyond one's understanding lingering in the just beyond. One's dream journal becomes the anchor in the sand of time.Worldbridgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02411263354180821936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925549664214256461.post-8853371359203842622010-07-04T12:53:40.729-04:002010-07-04T12:53:40.729-04:00Robert, I have all of your books, but they're ...Robert, I have all of your books, but they're hiding from me right now. I thought I had all of them together on a specific bookshelf - nope. When I find Dreaming True, I'll reread it. I've also been in your S&H forums before but haven't lately because I felt I didn't contribute enough to the community. I'd read lots dreams and have absolutely no resonance, and since the whole point of forum is to share, I felt I wasn't participating enough.

We can also learn to go back inside a dream - through the technique I call Dream Reentry - to clarify the nature of the dream and gather further information. Then we can progress to the most interesting thing: using dream clues to the POSSIBLE future to change the future for the better. My most complete treatment of all of this is in my book DREAMING TRUE, where you'll find a wealth of practical techniques (including how to work with dreams about other people) as well as stories that are instructive on the many forms in which we engage with the future in dreaming.Robert Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09231870716685877709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925549664214256461.post-34503306672070834282010-07-04T11:33:28.832-04:002010-07-04T11:33:28.832-04:00You hit directly on the dominant theme of my dream...You hit directly on the dominant theme of my dreams lately - travel. I'm on a trip. A focus of driving in some, suitcases in others. They're all about getting somewhere.<br /><br />You have vast experience in dreams and dreamwork. When you run a reality check, how can you know it's a clear dream if it involves other people? Some people I can check with, but others I can't. I know from reading your books that you found out years later of the accuracy of some dreams. Did you discover along your way that there was a particular resonance to clear dreams? Or do you just trust that the people will show up at the right time and place to verify what you've dreamed?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16007152333224658381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925549664214256461.post-19262726354822947702010-07-04T10:46:56.420-04:002010-07-04T10:46:56.420-04:00Krista - My practice is to run a reality check on ...Krista - My practice is to run a reality check on ALL dream material, asking whether it is remotely possible that something seen in a dream will manifest in the future, literally or symbolically. <br /><br />Yes, dreams can be both literal and symbolic. And of course they can be experiences in a different order of reality. Don't forget the theme of the piece: dreaming is traveling, and in our dream travels we cross time and also dimensions.Robert Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09231870716685877709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925549664214256461.post-6828496640295891672010-07-04T10:16:58.432-04:002010-07-04T10:16:58.432-04:00Very interesting.

I had a recent experience when I shared a dream that I thought was symbolic, but it predicted the future (and the situation had nothing to do with me). Now I wonder how many of my dreams are prescient but I don't realize it so I'm only viewing them as symbolic. Can they be both? And what good do clear dreams do if the dreamer isn't aware that they're clear dreams?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16007152333224658381noreply@blogger.com
