Waking Life

How to let your dreams inform you and you to inform your dreams? Dreams are so curiously interesting. Some agree that our dreams are meant to inform us, and that what we dream is all of our subconscious thoughts or thoughts throughout the day bubbling up and coming to the surface of our inner eye to be witnessed and experienced in Dreamtime. Others have put forward that the time we spend in dreams is not a level of consciousness or a dimension below reality, but that it is just a different dimension, a different landscape where we interact, explore, make choices and participate in a world that does not always seem possible in our waking life.

Awakening from a dramatic dream, or an unsettling dream, or a lovely dream that you do not want to end can be a discombobulating experience.

The transitions between waking and dreaming and sleeping and waking are treated very differently by different cultures. In our modern world it is easy to go, go, go immediately upon waking. There is no room for contemplating the hours with eyes closed, the revelations learned in Dreamtime.

Instead, can you offer yourself the time and space to consider your dreams? Perhaps write them down upon waking, or if this doesn’t suit you, write down what you wish to dream about before sleep.

Our human consciousness is more important that ever as our society explores artificial intelligent consciousness.

Up to now, I have not heard that machines can dream. Our dreams are what perhaps keep the multidimensionality of our collective consciousness a frontier to explore indefinitely.

Dream freely. Live freely. Explore your worlds with intention.
