keep a dream journal

yay! I found a notebook, now to wake up early enough to write in it…

i had a strange dream that i had a baby daughter but i forgot her name and i was protecting her from a fire near the house we were in then i asked my grandparents what her name was and they said….amber nile…and this name is totally random ive pulled it from nowhere but it feels like it means something..im gonna remmber that name.

I found an old diary I’ve never used so I printed out two nice “dream” pictures I found on photobucket and put them on the first two pages in the book. Now I just need to dream something and write it down. When I’ve made it a habit this goal is DONE :D

Every time I wake up from my dream, it’s like 1AM and I’m afraid to turn on the light and write. If I do, I know I won’t be able to go to sleep again.

I think I’ll write my dreams out in the dark and write them neatly later on. I need to remember my dreams… I’ve gotten some of the most orginal story ideas from them and analyzing them gives me an different look at things… Not to mention, I really want to dream lucidly.

Haven’t remembered too much the last couple nights.

I’ve noticed that when I wake up in the morning and try to recall my dreams sometimes other dreams come back to me. It’s like they’re still hanging around in my short term memory or dream memory bank weeks or months afterwords. At least that’s how I perceive it.

My boyfriend slept over on Friday night because he went to saturday meditation at a yoga studio next to my house at 4:30 am. I couldn’t get to sleep and when I did it seemed that I kept trying to do things and other stuff just kept happening. It is like I try to achieve goals but there seem to always be things that get in the way. I think that I may be the one standing in the way of my success because I get scared when good things start happening to me. I also felt something very negative and evil in the dream—possibly something that came out of me when I have done all of this detoxing in the past week.

I swear the past few weeks have been the most changing of my entire life. I feel like I am growing emotionally and intellectually. I have never cried so much in my whole life and I even cried in front of people which isn’t something that I was comfortable doing before.

My boyfriend went to meditation and it took me over an hour to get back to sleep - when I did sleep again it was only for about an hour until he got back and it was like a continuation of where I left off when I awoke when he was getting ready to go to the meditation. I think that I have finally broken the chain -- the pointless circle I have been wandering in for so long in so many areas of my life. I feel like I am an animal that has been tied with a leash to the same fucking fence and now I am free to wander. I feel like I am letting myself go—and beginning to do things that scared me before. I am putting myself out there and wonderful things are starting to happen even though it’s been painful at times.

I think I am starting to get a hang of things.

Dreams are the way the Universe gets our attention and delivers messages to us, since we aren’t usually paying attention in the waking time!!!! It’s also how our loved ones on the other side pay us a visit.
Keeping a dream journal is very important because upon waking- dreams, like visions are fleeting- most fade immediately.

Dreams are usually never literal. They are like charades- they must be deciphered. Dream books aren’t always helpful- because the dream is personal- designed to give you images you will understand and the people in them that “represent parts of YOU.”..

For instance- when I dream about storms- it is usually some situation that I don’t feel in control of that is giving me a powerless feeling- but what I am doing in the dream and who it involves changes the meaning, If I’m with my friend Jen- it means that I need to be more powerful and deliberate….Everything in the dream has a meaning…

I love interpreting dreams- and once you lean what the symbols in your dreams mean for you- you will see it as a wonderful time to connect with the Universe- get visits from loved ones who have crossed over and look forward to sleeping more!!!

If anyone has questions- email me.

i used to keep a journal right by my bed and as soon as i woke up I’d write in it. I like to look back at those and remember them. But I want to get back into the habit because I have been having some very intuitive dreams and don’t really remember them. I would like to look into them some more so I’m going to start putting a journal back by my bed.

played in a few short hours last night, like clips from different films. I feel like I have more to offer the world than I am letting out—Now just have to figure out how to get the lock off of the cage.
