Explore Your Dreams
Your
dreams use your past, present and future as the locations for your
movie. You are the star, the hero and anti-hero, the lover, and the
torturer. You are the casting agent, the producer and the director. The
final cuts are yours. You add the music and finally the subtitles so
that you can make sense of it in your waking life.
Dr. Raymond’s recent dream: As I wait for a friend I see a car in front of me with the actress Judi Dench and the actor James Garner in the back seat doing a love scene. As I watch they melt into one another in a kiss.
This tiny fragment of a dream helped me get back in touch with a part of me I had pushed away. Judi Dench represents the British part of me, and James Garner the American part of me. For many years I had kept them separate so I wouldn’t feel the pain of loss of my British professional identify. The dream came at a time when I needed to reclaim the skills and experience I had developed in Britain and use it in my new professional career. The dream created an integrated image of me that allowed all parts of myself to work in harmony. It showed me my future, it enabled me to balance my past and present, and comforted me in my pain.
YOUR DREAMS CAN ALSO BE YOUR FRIENDS, MIRRORS, ALERTERS, TEACHERS, COMFORTERS, BALANCERS AND GUIDERS.
Dreams allow you to express parts of yourself that may be hard
for you to do otherwise. It is your own special language that you use
to communicate with those aspects of yourself that you don’t usually
have access to.
