In this dream analysis, Jeane finds herself in a room with two others, a boy and a girl of college age. She is trying to see if there are enough beds for them, and is confronted by the guilt of disapproval that is anticipated to come from the other girl’s mother – because of the sleeping arrangements. But the imagery is really speaking of a connection to, and being right for, the Greater Mother of all of creation. This analysis will be in two parts, continued in our next post. (At the end of this post there are instructions and a link to download this recording to your computer.)
Jeane: I just remember a snippet, and it’s like I’m college age, and I’m going on some kind of… it almost feels like a houseboat type cruise or event with other people my age. And I don’t seem to know them before I get there.
I find myself sharing this large room with another girl my age, and a boy, a college age boy, and this room just seems to have a lot of stuff piled in it.
John: Are there three of you or four of you?
Jeane: There are three of us, the guy, the girl, and myself. And I seem to have found this almost like little window seat right by the door as you come in. It’s not really a window seat, but you know what I mean, it’s kind of like just… that I’m kind of reclining on a bit.
And then the girl and I are sharing a space and the boy has a bed kind of towards the middle or far side of the room, but there’s other stuff in there, too, and I’m searching around trying to figure out if there’s enough space to make three beds.
If there are actually three beds in the room in all this other stuff that’s piled up, and meanwhile somebody else has come in to look at our room, and they’re kind of surprised because they think the girl’s mother would be shocked that the three of us are sharing a room.
We don’t seem to find anything strange in it. In fact, it seems to suit us just fine. And we realize that no, we don’t have another bed in there that would make three beds, but what I thought might unwind into a bed actually is going to unwind either into a ping pong table or a volleyball net, and I think that’s actually kind of a lot more interesting.
Obviously we’re sleeping in something that can become the game room, that’s why it has so much stuff all over the place.
John: You’re using the traits around you to point out where you stand in relationship to taking things in in a proper way, which means you just have to take them in in terms of what’s there before you. In other words, like a container quality nature.
You are presented with an image that has you having to figure out what it is that needs to be able to be taken in as part of the overall Whole, so that in doing so enables you to be at a state of completion with yourself.
In other words, how do you reside inside of yourself with everything taken into account? And until you do that, you can’t take on the step that is required when you are in creation, which is to have an inclusiveness in your being so that you can automatically play the game of life.
And so your dream is attempting to show you where the components of yourself are lacking. And it indicates that there are three people in the room to begin with, a woman and another guy and you, you’re like a guy.
Jeane: No, no, I’m a female. I’m sharing the bed with the other girl.
John: Oh, with the other girl.
Jeane: Yeah.
John: And yet then there’s the guy that has a bed. He has a bed?
Jeane: Yeah.
John: Okay. So, the imbalance in the dream is when the mother comes in…
Jeane: No, the mother never comes in. It’s just some other kids that know the mother.
John: Some other kid that knows the mother?
Jeane: Yeah, we’re all college age kids on the boat.
John: And she knows the mother?
Jeane: Yeah.
John: And so she knows the mother won’t approve? And yet at the same time the guy in his bed you never place any attention upon him, right?
Jeane: No, he’s just going to be fun to be there. I mean, it’s not a romantic…
John: No, no, but he’s just in the room. So, there’s a part of yourself that isn’t quite in balance with how things need to be in creation, or in a grounded way.
And so you somehow are able to appreciate the masculine, or the clarity quality, in life, but somehow you have to take that into a depth in creation. And you have a level of hiddenness brought close to you. You’re able to share with that, which is that little girl part.
But then there’s the greater depth of your feminine overall being, that you still haven’t won over yet, or still are unsure about, or is still somewhere else – that’s the mother quality, or the priestess quality, or that deeper divine quality of yourself in relationship to the overall.
And that component needs to be there in order to reach a four, which is a level of completion. And you have inklings about it as others come and go, so to speak, or other people can come there and they carry an opinion or a mannerism that points to this part that you are not catching up with, or have not brought into the equation, as it needs to be brought into the equation.
Your dream is trying to portray a setting, a setting upon which you carry yourself in a particular way, or state, and you look at that way that you carry yourself, as portrayed by the image, and you see in that state what is required or missing in order for you to be more all-inclusive in your overall perspective of the Whole, which you have taken for granted or, therefore, it is still foreign to you, although you know and have reports that it exists, this deeper quality that has to do with the greater Wholeness, or the macrocosm of the situation.
And of course we’re talking about a macrocosm of a situation that has a quality of creation, not the quality of the creator, just of creation, that component which carries its reflection of what is, in terms of the creator. In other words, if you can see that, then you somehow or another catch up with what God is all about.
And you need to catch up with that more, the creation component. That’s the setting that isn’t quite there of which there is an uneasiness or a feeling that there’s an imbalance, and you have then no problem appreciating and enjoying and finding fun, the inflections which can then ensue.
But the base of yourself has to be sounder in order to have what is necessary to be there for a completion to occur, by which you then, out of the Whole of it all, find yourself able to play the game of life.
But until then, it’s still kind of confusing because there is the absence of this particular depth of your being in creation that you need to catch up with.
