The dream workshop

Loveland Co was the location for the latest dream workshop. The workshop dealt with “willing sacrifice, creativity and transcendense. Billie Ortiz organized this and Jeremy Taylor was as usual our esteemed leader. It was a little over a week ago that twenty or more of us sat in a circle and shared dreams and their possible meanings. So much growth takes place in that setting where all feel accepted and safe. Dreams being what they are, all topics are welcome. The idea is to listen to the shared dream and pretend it is yours. What you share is what your version of the dream means to you. The dreamer is able through this process to see many more layers to the dream. It is more a case of both /and instead of either/ or. I had the great privilege of sharing one of my dreams. I knew at the time of the dream that it was a BIGGIE and I am so grateful for the insights offered. I have continued to work with the dream since. On Sunday morning a new member to the group was saying that she felt badly for me during the discussion of my dream. Obviously some of the suggestions were pointed and could be viewed as criticism. I was stunned by her thoughts. If we only share warm, fuzzy, positive thoughts we aren’t being helpful. I can usually find those kinds of interpretations myself. It is the love of a friend who will suggest some of the harder blind spots. After all dreams come to tell us what we don’t know. ( and fear shouldn’t keep us from hearing what they have to offer) All dreams come in the service of health and wholeness always guiding us toward becoming our most Authentic Self. I will share the dream here soon.
