I noticed a few years ago that on some days when I cross paths with people in everyday life, I sometimes have a huge, overwhelming embarassment flash that turns my face bright red & and makes me want to immediately crawl under the nearest rock. I noticed too that when this happens, the person that I'm faced with seems confused by my unusual reaction (that I obviously can not hide from them or myself). Each time this has happens, it's because I spontaneously realize that I've recently had an erotic dream (that I forgot) about the person I'm faced with. So this is how I first realized that my own "adult section" is often filtered out.<br /><br />But things are changing! I recently had a beautiful dream where a guardian angel appeared to me in the form of a splendid dragon with multi-hued blue and silver scales. On this occasion, I was given a silver sword (with a dragon skin handle!) and told that when in good dream company, if ever I doubt the identity or intention of those who appear to me, the sword would shine blue to confirm that I can allow myself to trust. <br /><br />And so, just two nights ago, I had an incredibly beautiful & errotic dream filled with deep, bodily love yet upon waking, I felt waves of mental doubt for in this dream, there was a person who is, for me, one of the purest spiritual references I've ever met in human form. And so I thought, "No... He would never do that." Nonetheless, I continued to hold the dream close and took my tea & dream journal into the garden wondering what to do when I saw to my right a brilliantly luminous, shinny blue and silver feather float down from the apricot tree. I thought, "What kind of bird lost this feather? I looks absolutely metalic" and with this thought I inwardly saw my sword.<br /><br />I inspected the ground and found no such feather and only yellow-brown dried up bamboo leaves. I did write down my dream (and am now looking forward to the sequal!).Irènehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18298924575240330962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925549664214256461.post-49022358496232940532010-06-03T10:51:03.244-04:002010-06-03T10:51:03.244-04:00Thanks for the musicsl lead, Justin.

Of course the crypt of dead dreams may be a very different location from the shelters of dreams we missed. <br /><br />I've helped a number of people who have been estranged from dreaming for a long tiome to reenter their last remembered dreams, with remarkable results. Those "old" dreams, in two cases from 30 years ago, came alive again, not as revenants but in vivid and soul-restoring ways.Robert Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09231870716685877709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925549664214256461.post-58383895273589989052010-06-03T10:43:06.069-04:002010-06-03T10:43:06.069-04:00One of my favorite musical groups, Current 93, has...One of my favorite musical groups, Current 93, has a song called "The Dreammoves of the Sleeping King". In it the musicians explore the question of "where dreams go when they die." I wonder if those are contained in a whole separate library (or crypt). Incidentally much of David Tibet's lyrics are inspired directly from his dreams.Justin Patrick Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13354354033674548466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925549664214256461.post-44640260409859484822010-06-03T05:05:27.903-04:002010-06-03T05:05:27.903-04:00KMG - Why do we lose our dreams?

Third, in the "sleep of experiences" we may travel through many levels or courtyards of dreaming and it can become progressively harder to bring back clear recollection of the deeper levels as we return - one of many reasons why adopting the practice of dream reentry can be so interesting. Fear is a blocker for many; we don't want to hear about the dark side in us, or of possible future events. Finally (for now) I agree with the old adage that "if we don't DO something with our dreams, we do not dream well." Dreams require action, which starts with developing a practice - like our Lightning Dreamwork process (explained in my "Three 'Only" Things") for quick and creative everyday dream-sharing.Robert Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09231870716685877709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925549664214256461.post-80612847881077906282010-06-03T01:12:21.142-04:002010-06-03T01:12:21.142-04:00I wonder why we forget dreams in the first place. ...I wonder why we forget dreams in the first place. Sometimes I'm sure it has to do with social taboos, like with the "Adult" section in your dream. But other times I know I wasn't dreaming about anything like that, yet the dream still disappears.KMGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01336744315633172157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925549664214256461.post-81572001121595447662010-06-02T10:29:06.496-04:002010-06-02T10:29:06.496-04:00Hi Mike - Though I love to collect and replay full...Hi Mike - Though I love to collect and replay full-scale movies from my nights of dreaming, I'm also grateful (and often quite content with) those nights that bring energy replenishment rather than specific dream content.Robert Mosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09231870716685877709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925549664214256461.post-87669898773872439792010-06-02T10:16:30.860-04:002010-06-02T10:16:30.860-04:00Thanks Robert.

I suspect I have a large personal section there!<br /><br />Lately my dream recollection has been alternating. Sometimes the entire night is filled with story dreams with a clear progression and flow of events. Other nights the entire night seems to be filled with energy-body work without a clear progression of narrative or story. The energy work seems to be reiterated with only slight variation through the night. It leaves me feeling well and charged up but wondering if I’m missing something from the lack of clear ‘story’.Mike Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08103864217751085525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925549664214256461.post-83281027193867939842010-06-02T10:13:04.972-04:002010-06-02T10:13:04.972-04:00Do let us know what you find, R!
