I don't mean that in the literal sense- I mean, help you realise parts of you that you might be needing to tap into but something in your conscious life may be blocking it.
For instance; I've composed several songs in my dreams over the last few years, and they're fucking brilliant! But when I'm awake I'm only ever thinking about story ideas, documentary ideas, or photography opportunities.
Each passing year, more song composing dreams occur than the years previous. Could I be overlooking a talent I should be trying to do something with?
The other dreams I find perplexing are the ones where my dreams take someone I feel a set way about, and it (the dream) seduced me into feeling a completely different way about them. Does that mean I already felt that way but buried it in my subconscious, and the dream is making me aware?
When I first started coming to SW I remember talking about how I never had good dreams. They were all violent, ugly, and a lot of times apocalyptic. That's no longer the case. I must have healed a lot since then because I'm really beginning to have dreams I enjoy very much.
How do your dreams affect you?
