Warning! Entering the Dreamtime - Shamanic Dreaming Workshop (Post 4 of 5)

(continued … click here for post 1, post 2, post 3)

As June’s tree dream shows, dreams can be meant for more than one person, thus it is important to share them. 

During the workshop I had a dream that was meant to be shared so I share it with you now and post it below.  This dream had something to do with the Dreamtime – a world that in some indigenous cultures was understood to be the place where all things originate, where reality is dreamed into existence before taking physical form. 

Thus, art of dreaming has additional potential.  That is, in addition to gathering information and insight from dreams, dreams can be tapped for their creative potential.

This dream was a bit of a riddle.  I continue to work with it and uncover more of its meaning.  This is a dream about time, how to use it, how to ride it to get what you want.  It’s also a dream about the importance of merging with the cycles of nature.  Unlike most of dreams, it also came with a warning! 

After I had this dream, I talked with my guides and they provided some insight into the meaning of some of the symbols.  Below, I reprinted what they said for any who are interested in using this dream for themselves!

The dream went like this:

How to Get Stuff You Want

Or

How to Consciously Enter the Dreamtime

(Warning: It will be challenging to enter the Dreamtime if your intentions are not pure as spiritual gifts were meant to be used for the well-being of all.)

I am at an outdoor train station on an elevated platform waiting for a train.  The platform is built so high off the ground I feel as if I am waiting in the sky.  I am the only passenger waiting on the platform.  The train pulls into the station.  It is heading North.  I stand up meet it.  As I stand, as I wait for it to slow, I begin to think about the things I will do when I get to my destination and even things I will do after that.  As I stand there thinking about the future the train begins to speed up.  As it speeds up I become alarmed at the things I will not be able to accomplish if I don’t get on the train.  As I worry, the train speeds up even more and finally disappears. .....
