An excellent guide to experiencing or deepening lucid dreams, A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming is filled with tips, tricks and advice to explore your dream world. My husband and daughter experience lucid dreams all the time and I don't or, at least, haven't yet. It's embarrassing. It's as if they have access to worlds that I can only dream about, literally. I picked this book up because I wanted to develop this skill too. So far, with the advice contained within this Field Guide, I've realized that An excellent guide to experiencing or deepening lucid dreams, A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming is filled with tips, tricks and advice to explore your dream world. So far, with the advice contained within this Field Guide, I've realized that I was dreaming once, became lucid and immediately woke up. But, that's progress. I'm encouraged actually. If I can go lucid once, I can do it again. A lucid dreamer is able to go to sleep at night and wake up within his or her dream. With this unique awareness, you can generally behave like someone who is awake, exercising the free will, imagination, and memory of waking life. How fun would that be? Ever wanted to fly? Face your nightmares? Talk to a deceased loved one? A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming: Mastering the Art of Oneironautics authors of this book claim that it is all possible. They addressed some of my problems directly: "Quite often, the amateur lucid dreamer's early exploits in lucidity last only a few moments. If you've become lucid already but lost your awareness very quickly, don't worry. This is common. In the next chapter we'll look at ways in which you can stabilize the dream and stay lucid for long stretches of time. Practice makes perfect, it seems. The shamanistic beliefs about the dream world are intriguing: " Life is like a dream and we are the dreamers, whether asleep or awake: "This world can be a nightmare or a nice dream. It's full of friends or enemies, success or failure, meaning or nihilism. We're headed toward destruction or we're headed toward rebirth. There are many viewpoints on Earth as there are people. And just like the dream, we shape our experience with our thoughts, emotions, and expectations. Recommended for anyone who, like me, wants to master lucid dreaming. I think that this book will help you find your way. Sweet dreams View all 8 comments. Jun 13, Jeremy rated it it was amazing. The best thing I can say about this is that it is exactly what it purports to be. It provides step-by-step instruction to develop a lucid dreaming practice. I found the text to be engaging and not overwritten. It's just the right tips and tricks to figure things out. It also contains a lot of little anecdotes which are interesting and inspiring. I read the book slowly - for about a month - so that I would have time to practice dreaming after each chapter. Finally… It worked. I was in a A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming: Mastering the Art of Oneironautics bath The best thing I can say about this is that it is exactly what it purports to be. I was in a hotel bathroom looking at the mirror something wasn't right. I realized I was dreaming. It all started to fade away so I said "stabilize" and started to spin around. When other people walked into the bathroom I walked out and started floating through the hotel lobby. The fun is just beginning. Dec 16, K. Weiland rated A Field Guide to Lucid Dreaming: Mastering the Art of Oneironautics it was amazing. Mar 22, Susie rated it really liked it. Pretty straight forward guide to lucid dreaming. I loved the quotes at the beginning of each chapter. We shall not cease from exploration. And the end of all our exploring Will be to arrive where we started And know the place for the first time. Eliot, poet, playright, aka 'Old Possum' Fear has its use but cowardice has none. Clarke, writer, knight, sscuba diver The guide looks at lucid dreaming as a practice. After three weeks of meditation techniques and dream journalling I was able to have pretty detailed dream recall. I liked the ritual of waking up and writing down my dreams before they were lost. It was a nice transition from waking up to going to work. Much better than getting up and checking Facebook. After a month, I had a lucid dream. I was running at my old university at night.

    The Gifts of Dreaming with Robert Moss by Julia Griffin Page 1 of 10 Vol 3, No 10 Table of Contents Feature Articles Masthead Magazine List Shopping Contact Us Sitemap Home The Gifts of Dreaming with Robert Moss by Julia Griffin Robert Moss teaches "Active Dreaming" — a way of participating in our dream world that, he says, creates a bridge between ordinary dreamwork and shamanism. In this connection, he leads innovative dream programs all over the world. His ongoing research includes applications of conscious dreaming and ways of using dreamwork for healing, care of the dying, creativity, conflict resolution, and scientific discovery. Julia: What do you mean by "Active Dreaming"? Robert: I call my work Active Dreaming because I feel the most important thing in dreamwork is to act on our dreams in physical reality. The first essential in Active Dreaming is http://www.spiritofmaat.com/archive/may3/moss.htm 7/10/2006 The Gifts of Dreaming with Robert Moss by Julia Griffin Page 2 of 10 to keep a dream journal. Then we honor our dreams by acting on them. One way of honoring our dreams is to share them with others. I think that dreams should be talked about openly. If the dream is symbolic, then we can try to interpret the symbolism. In this regard, it's important to understand that we — the dreamer — are the final authority on what our dream symbols mean. If we have a dream that pertains to physical reality, then we can honor the dream with direct action. For example, if I dream of wearing a shirt that is of a certain color, I might decide to wear that color shirt the next day.

Sweet Sleep: On Dreams By Rabbi Elie Kaplan Spitz On Dreams Introduction to the Soul of the Matter Rabbinic Diversity on the Meaning of Dreams Abimelech: Warning as the First Biblical “Dream” Abraham’s Dream of an Enduring Covenant Jacob’s Transformative Dreams Joseph’s Dreams Joseph as Dream Interpreter: Empathic, Confident, and Humble Daniel as Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream Interpreter Visions of God by Isaiah and Ezekiel Biblical Verses as Dream Image Sweetners Dream Symbols Spotlight on REM “All Dreams Follow the Mouth:” The Power of the Interpretation Zohar on Prophecy and Dreams Solomon Almoli’s Classic Dream Guide, Pitron Halomot How Freud and Jung Differed Creative Breakthroughs Seeking Answers from Dreams Telepathy Amidst Dreams Divine Mercy and Restorative Dreams Dream Interpretation as a Cooperative Effort Nightmares Preventing and Transforming a Bad Dream Transforming Prayer of an Ambiguous Dream Wakeful Dreams Introduction to the Soul of the Matter For the longest time, I rarely remembered my dreams. It was unfortunate, for I was aware that visions of the night offered great insight. This belief is foundational to modern psychotherapy and is on display in sacred Jewish text. Starting with the Bible, dreams are transformational. Abraham, Abimelech, Jacob, Laban, and Joseph all have dreams that are prophetic. They each receive Divine messages that are as if spoken, clear and direct. Beginning with the tales of Joseph, interpretation is needed to decipher the symbols of dreams. The rabbis will differ as to the value of such visions of the night in their day, with three possibilities: meaningless, prophecy, or a combination.

  • Dream Sharing Dream Groups
    The Art of Dream Sharing and Developing Dream Groups Creative Ideas from the Dream Network Journal 1 The Art of Dreamsharing/www.Dream NetworkJournal.net ”The dream is a little hidden door in the innermost and most secret recesses of the soul, opening into the cosmic night that which was psyche long before there was any ego consciousness and which will remain psyche, no matter how far our ego- consciousness may extend. In the dream, we put on the likeness of that more universal, truer, more eternal person dwelling in the darkness of primordial night. There, the individual is still the whole and the whole is in the individual, indistinguishable from nature and bare of all egohood. It is from these all-uniting depths that the dream arises, be it ever so childish, grotesque or immoral. So flowerlike is it in its candor and veracity that it makes us blush for the Carl G. Jung deceitfulness of our lives.” 2 The Art of Dreamsharing/www.DreamNetworkJournal.net Artist Charles Catron III, Sandbox Studio, Moab, UT 3 “Doors of Perception” The Art of Dreamsharing/www.Dream NetworkJournal.net Copyright ©1993 Dream Network Journal Revised ©2002, ©2013 All rights reserved, including the right to reproduce this book, or any portion thereof, without the written permission of the publisher.
