Dream Interpretation / Re: Illness and dreams
« on: September 18, 2023, 10:22:59 AM »
Sorry for taking a while to reply,
Anna,thank you so much for the loving thoughts,must have worked as I am now better,
In England we have a nickname of sorts for nurses,it is Angel's,my daughter is a nurse and did look after me while I was on another planet with the horrible state i found myself in,as for the way of the lord,the interpretation being,to remove all obstacles,clear the way for the coming of something,
Interestingly enough,the visions i experienced were so vivid and clear i feel this had something to do with,the way being cleared.
It's currently a trend now for people to go on an ayahuasca trip,on reading and watching a few documentary's on this subject,
I realised the images I experienced in the visions were exactly the same as those experienced by those psychonauts,I actually considered having a go myself to see if I could clear the blocks I seem to have.
I now feel,I have an answer of sorts in that I dont need to participate in that activity,
I also realised that when you study indigenous spiritual practices,there does seem to be some sort of suffering or discomfort,
I think of the native American vow to the sun dance,shamanic sickness aswell,the sweatlodge,out of this suffering or more rightly discomfort, come visions etc..
I am open to learning.
Thank you once again for your thoughts and concern.ifvi could hug you I would.
Kind regards mikey.

Dream Interpretation / Illness and dreams
« on: September 13, 2023, 02:48:18 PM »
Hi Tony and Anna,
About 2 weeks ago I was struck down with sepsis and became very I'll,
While in this state,I can categorically state I was not here or there,wherever that is,a sort of inbetween world.
I had many hallucinations,strange Aztec looking multi coloured images of arches intertwined with writhing snake like figures,
On one occasion,I was greeted by so insectoid looking beings who seemed to be confused as to what I was doing there,
On recovering beginning thi week,my dreams were very vivid and meaningful,one of which stood out ,which I hope someone can help me with.
First of all I feel the need to stress I am not a religious person,but for some reason I do get that symbology in dreams.
The dream.
In the distance I see a storm gathering ,black clouds lightning etc,
A voice issues from somewhere,there is a storm coming, the likes of which h has never been seen before on earth,
So prepare ye the way of the lord.
But first you will see an angel.
I look forward as always to your wisdom,
Regards mikey.

Dream Interpretation / Re: Manna from heaven
« on: March 21, 2023, 08:32:29 AM »
Thank you Anna,just what I needed.
One of my difficulties has been,just letting go,as Joseph Campbell once said,dropping the life you have planned for yourself and taking up the life that's waiting for you,
I actually did this,I said I was going to hand myself over to the universe,trust that its plans are better than mine,which of course they are,maybe not as comfortable as we would like,
But leading to some other depth potentialities we never though possible.
As for the manna from heaven,well dreams carry manna,
But I have to say,both yours and Toni's expertise in these matters ,the words you both choose,are manna too.
And I'm am sure many who come here are nourished by them as I am.
Thank so much.
Mikey

Dream Interpretation / Manna from heaven
« on: March 20, 2023, 11:28:05 AM »
Hi toni,
It's been a while since I felt the need to post a dream,but the one i am about to mention is one that I feel needs a semblance of sanity and reason,which this forum is the only place I feel this exists,I made a mistake by sharing with some religious friends,
I feel,just because a dream contains religious imagery dosnt mean it is religious in nature,as they are mostly metaphor and analogy but anyway,here is my dream ,
I am high up in the mountains,it is snowing heavily becoming blizzard conditions,
It gets to the point I realize I've lost the path as it's been covered by all the snow ,
I see a hulking looking figure tramping through the snow away from me ,
My God it's a yeti I say to myself,but I cang quite make it out properly due to the blizzard,
Realising I am lost and stuck,I radio for help no response,transmission in this weather is impossible,
Suddenly out of nowhere a shepherd just appears, curled top  sheperds crook,cloth on his head with a band around it,
Very biblical like moses,he beckons me  follow him,which I do,as I know he will be aware of all the paths and trails up here
He leads me out of the blizzard into and area covered in what looks like white fluff,picking some up ,I taste it,
I realise its manna from heaven,the story ends there.
As you can see it all looks like a story from the bible,the good shepherd parable,moses leading the Israelites into the wilderness ,
I am very interested as to what anyones thoughts are,

Interesting what you said,

Dream Interpretation / Dark night of the soul
« on: November 15, 2021, 07:54:48 PM »
Hi Tony,
I read a book by Douglas Harding a while back,on having no head,a zen look at the spiritual journey,
In it he talked about an area called the barrier,
Which is the experience  of feeling that all progress this far has been a waste of time,despite some great insights,
I find myself in this area now,if nog for some time,
The other night I had this dream,
A battle is being fought around a king who is shining like gold,to his right sits his daughter,who I am defending with all my strength,
Finally the shield protecting her is compromised,and she gets killed,despite my efforts.
The fighting stops,everything goes silent as everyone present stands and looks at the king,waiting,for some reaction,
He just sits there,I feel his nobility and power in that he was unmovable by any negative event,
I felt so moved by this,I step forward before him ,I kneel and stick my sword in the ground before him,
I say,my king,from this moment forth,I am your man,your champion,
After this,we are now in a helicopter like vehicle rising up,
The king is on my left piloting,the queen on my right,
I am in the middle,its now my job to take care of and keep a little dog safe by tucking it into my seatbelt.

I feel there is a great message in this dream,and somehow relates to the barrier I find myself up against,
Would love to hear any thoughts.
Regards mikey

General Discussion / Near death experience
« on: July 29, 2021, 10:51:52 AM »
Hi Tony
I've been reading about, and watching on you tube, a lot of testimonies from people who have had so called near death experiences, most of which in one way or another contain the experience of intense all loving light, also they all recall,  seeing, feeling, hearing  ,all on a level that seems to be more real than this physical world, while these experiences as wonderful as they are, and no doubt life changing for the experiencer, I find myself a little perplexed,

If our consciousness, our spirit if you like, can see, hear, feel, smell etc., why is there a need for a physical body, why don't we all just float around like ghosts with the 5 senses, is our idea of consciousness actually an illusion.

From what I understand, the only difference between, the conscious out of body experience and the actual physical world is the experience of physical pain, as most of the NDE participants have said, that returning to their bodies in some cases was excruciatingly painful because of the injuries they sustained, but while separated from their bodies they felt no physical pain.

It's an interesting subject that has got my mind stirring,
I find myself asking ,not who am I, but what am i
 Would welcome any thoughts,

Mikey

Dream Interpretation / Humans are popcorn
« on: July 25, 2021, 09:17:01 AM »
Hi toni,hope you are keeping safe,saw you on u tube ,nice to put a face to the voice.
I had a follow on dream from my mass extinction post,
The dream,
I am met by the aliens from my previously posted dream,the ones who said they were going to wipe out humankind,
I ask them in this latest dream,why are they going to do this,the answer was not what I expected,
They show me a vision,a large metal pot on a campfire,in it some corn/maize it starts to pop ,filling up the pot to such an extent that it over flows taking the lid off.as making popcorn does,
I thought this was a very interesting metaphor,cornucopia of potential
Perhaps in my case,the light will come in the darkest moment,
As always I would love any comments
Regards mikey.

Dream Interpretation / Re: The big question.
« on: January 22, 2021, 10:50:59 AM »
Hi Anna,
It's quite amazing you mentioned pathways,about 3 mths ago,I dreamed, I sat up in bed 3am,the door opened there was sat a beautiful wolf,just looking at me,the other night,same thing,only this time she was sat next to my bed,just looking at me again,(she's getting closer,)
But this time she planted some words in my head,I remember shouting out,pathfinder of course you are,!
It doesn't need interpreting,I mention this only because I think it is connected,
I live in the UK,no wolves here,but I am honoured she came,these sorts of dream images seem to waken something deeper,
no doubt a representation of the anima figure as Jung would put it,but in a more earthy primordial form.
According to some native American tribes,the wolf is called a pathfinder,as hunters would follow wolf tracks to hopefully find the game etc.
I can honestly say that yes I need to find my path,,it seems that something is trying to guide me to mine,
,cant wait.
Thank you once again for all your hard work.

Hi Anna,
Once again your insight is remarkable,
I am at that age,nearing retirement,so a big change is coming,amidst extraordinary times,in a troubled world,
I am sure with your knowledge & experience you will understand when I say,this dream has left me feeling a lot lighter,as if
a rock has been taken out of my back pack.
I have been lucky enough to experience something greater than myself,despite this a lot of clearing out of the old has & is still taking place,I know I must endeavour to do it joyfully.
Ongoing !
Regards mikey

Dream Interpretation / The big question.
« on: January 20, 2021, 11:48:21 AM »
Who am I,
A question that has been around for a long time,
I dreampt the other night,
A  guide takes me to see a dead body on a mortuary table,I realise it is my body,
My guide tells me that I will be kept in the fridge for 2 weeks so I dont go off,then my funeral will take place & I will be buried.
I felt that the whole drama of life  seems empty & pointless if this is all there is,
I then feel a warmth rise up inside me,when it reaches my head I start to laugh ,
My guide asks why on earth are you laughing,i reply,if that is me ,pointing to my dead body,then who am I pointing to my conscious self in the dream,my guide bursts out laughing as well.
We walk out & down the road together laughing & singing.
Started out grim,ended in joy.
My own waking reflection on this dream,
Something is stirring.

Dream Interpretation / Re: Heiros gamos dream
« on: November 09, 2020, 08:50:46 AM »
Thank you Tony,
I too felt the birth ,especially the slime yuck,so much so I watched the movie shawshank redemption to get a feel for the emotion content,that movie was about rebirth,,so I think I get it,I even said to myself The very words,unless a man is born again he cannot enter the kingdom,
This dream has highlighted my reluctance due to my fears, lack of trust in the process.
I know I have to let go,& allow myself to be led by the inner process,it is real !
As Anna said,trust it no matter what.

I have pondered deeply on what Anna said about, why I dont value the little understanding I have,
I had this dream which I feel highlights my search and what she says.
I am beckoned by a female figure,to follow her through a pipe/tunnel which is actually submerged,it us full of the most disgusting yuck,think shawshank redemption,
I do not like confined spaces,& I can only hold my breath for 2 1/2 minutes,to get through the yucky tunnel I need to be able to hold my breath for 3mins,so in the dream I am reluctant & anxious,the female tells me she will go first & pull me through,as long as I  can conquer my fear.
All in all in answer to Anna,fear of failure .
Thank you Anna,I believe I'm getting somewhere.

Thank you for  your response Anna,
I  always look forward to your thoughts not only on my posts but the rest of the community here.
If I am correct in understanding ,in part what you have said,is that some dreams,do not need interpretation,that IT is the thing in its self,its job being just to activate something in us
I read an article on archetypal imagery in dreams yesterday which covered this theme,
The analogy used was ,the dried up river bed for the inner condition a lot of us find ourselves in,
The archetypal image in dream is the rainstorm that floods,rejuvinates & activates, that which lies dormant .
This makes sense to me,perhaps this is the understanding I needed.
Thank you once again for your wisdom,it led me in a direction I never expected, finding something i actually understand, for a change,obviously Tony's section on sacred marriage has been of great help as well,
Kind regards,mikey
