It has been said that we are what we radiate. And if we consider that the energy we process and produce emanates from us into the environment, we can see how we can affect things and people without being aware of it. On a development journey, however, we can begin to consciously be aware of, and take responsibility for, our effect on what we come in contact with.

Jeane: My first dream starts out where I’m in an office, but it’s kind of an open office, trying to counsel someone. But it’s like I’m trying to counsel one person, or one person and her partner, and another couple has come in and sat down.
And they’re also really needing attention, so I’m talking to them for a minute, and their issue has to do with employment, and some training they have to take so they can get employment, and can they both go to school at the same time?
I realize the type of school that they’re going for is just something where you have to take one brief course, maybe two, but to them it’s a big deal. I mean, this is a step towards work, and it’s not like they’re total college material, but it’s a big step for them.
But they’re also a couple, and can they both manage to go to school at the same time? Because they both want to, and so I’m trying to help them sort that out and talk to the person who came first. It all seems a bit much, plus other people seem to keep coming.
So I suddenly have this thing where I decide to take all these people, and by now I have a large group of them, out for this excursion for the day or night. It might even be overnight. And I take them out to a place that seems like it’s on the sea, or the ocean, because there are big cliffs and hills around, as well as the water which can get quite rough, and there’s a farm there.
And so we’re all spending that day and night at the farm, and we’re going to be doing activities there, which I seem to feel is what everybody needs.
But I remember at one point in the dream, I’ve got a lot of the group up on the hillside and I turn around and I look at the ocean, or the sea, and it’s gotten suddenly these huge waves, I mean just huge, and there are two or three of the group, and one of them, like a woman in a long dress in fact, that are out there standing like almost like riding a little raft, just like a surfboard, right in front of the huge waves and the waves are pushing them.
You don’t know if they are going to land on shore safely, or the wave will come crashing down. It’s hard to tell. So I go back down to the courtyard. It feels like it’s going to be not too long before we’re going to be leaving. I notice one or two people are a little banged up, but they’re all okay.
I’m having to get one out of a hayloft who is laying down, and I’m kind of trying to count and make sure I didn’t lose someone, I’m not sure about that or not, to take them all back to the city because I feel like whatever this experience is, it’s what they needed in order for their next step
John: That’s the first time you’ve had a teacher’s dream, if I can remember. The other dream indicated that you can incorporate a wholeness that has a whole pathway of inner-into-outer as an energetic – an energetic that you can embody.
You have taken a certain sight in your counseling, and you almost, like as a type of amnesia, used to use that as a practice. It had certain tools and certain techniques to it that you never thought that much about, and you did it kind of on a one-to-one basis. And it was something that unfolded as kind of a natural, somewhat sheltered, almost individualistic process.
However, that quality, which was conducted in a defined environment, is now something that has become nurtured, or developed, to a point where you can just naturally hold inside of yourself a bigger schematic. You don’t have to take and do this in kind of a one-to-one capacity.
I feel I’m doing it in a one-to-one capacity – and that gets me in trouble. You don’t ponder this sort of thing. You just realize that you take on a larger capacity of the whole thing, because other things are happening around so you just start to include it all. And then that responsibility requires you to make sure that all of that is in good hands and good care, because it’s a larger schematic.
Back when you were in your private practice, you only needed to go so far with that, in terms of a person who would come to you and you would direct them in some fashion, or give them techniques, or tools, or guidance or some sort of sense of balance in some fashion – and then you would leave it at that.
And generally a lot of it was something you could almost wash your hands of because it was part of a process in which there was a doctor and all of that sort of stuff involved. So, in a sense, it wasn’t like something you had to embody or carry.
To a certain degree you did with certain people, but you could also let go of it in other instances. And you did it in a very defined way, so that the rest of your life was able to be able to function outside of that schematic.
In this dream, wherever you seem to go, however you seem to be, you have to incorporate more of that which exists around you, and hold the responsibility for that to the degree to which you are able to effectuate or touch that. That’s a big jump. It’s almost like you just suddenly made this huge jump.
Now, I have been pondering this huge jump, actually. I just didn’t know how it would get expressed. A statement you made is an indication that something more was required in a greater overall capacity, because I know that this strains energy to do it like this, you have to be more overall in your nature, is when you said that you could walk along through the casinos and would find it interesting that a synchronicity or something that could happen when you might be near a gambler and all of a sudden they start hitting the jackpot.
And that would make you feel good that you could actually, somewhat, in your nature effectuate something like that for their sense of well being. To do that kind of activity is actually a type of black magic. You don’t mean it to be black magic, of course. The only reason it’s black magic is because you’re doing it individually. And to actually do this like you did in your practice could almost be accused of that a little bit, too, as a type of witchcraft or something – if seen in a different specter of evaluation or judgment.
However, what you are now realizing that you are to do, that I call more like a teaching quality element, is you’re able to be yourself in a greater embodied way. And so, like I said, I’ve been contemplating this because I actually do believe in some fashion, even though I can’t see the evidence of it, it’s just something that I believe, and I think this kind of works just like the principle of prayer works, where you can feel something resonating in your heart when you do something like this and it involves someone that you know, you can feel the vibration of something and that means it’s sent, however and whatever, it’s out of your hands.
But I believe that one can walk along in an area, like in the Vegas strip or whatever, and hold a particular space and that space can exude out and touch things in the greater environment. And that when you take that space, or try to take that space, back into a specific fashion, it can set off, if the masculine does this and tries to take it back into a specific mannerism, it can set off force-of-nature things – and that’s like a black magic, or unintended consequence.
So the key is, is to develop this linkage and this attunement so that as you move about you’re effectuating things in the environment that no one is aware of, maybe yourself to some degree, but not to the point where you sit there and lay out the specifics.
