Catch Your Dreams

We dream every night and in fact we dream all day long too although we are rarely aware of it. Our dreams are not usually depicting real events, except in situations of remembrance or prophesy it’s true, but if we stop and consider then we will realize our dreams are real scenarios – manifestations of our unconscious thoughts and our emotions – manifestations built from the stuff of our lives and made alive through our imagination with the assistance of our intuition.

As children we are programmed by our parents label dreams as “not real” for self-protective reasons. Because our language and comprehension skills are limited we don’t get the fact that they may not be real events happening in the moment but they are real thoughts and real emotional responses to what is actually going on in our lives, what has happened in our lives, what we either want to happen or what we hope will not happen in our lives. Our mind is creating possibilities – projections and variations on themes for our lives and it’s up to us if we choose to grasp them and make them into realities or not.

Dream Catchers

Long ago in the ancient world of the Ojibwe Nation, the Clans were all located in one general area of that place known as Turtle Island. This is the way that the old Ojibwe storytellers say how Asibikaashi (Spider Woman) helped Wanabozhoo bring giizis (sun) back to the people. To this day, Asibikaashi will build her special lodge before dawn. If you are awake at dawn, as you should be, look for her lodge and you will see this miracle of how she captured the sunrise as the light sparkles on the dew which is gathered there.

Many people feel it’s important to remember their dreams but what good does retaining these memories do you if you do not seek the information for the purpose of interpretation? And what good is the interpretation if it doesn’t lead to action?

IMO the most important aspect about remembering our our dreams is understanding that they give us useful information, provided that we are prepared to truly “listen” and to “comprehend” what they mean, and then, act on that information.

Although I don’t have a dream catcher I do catch my dreams and record them too. Do you?
