Playing a game of cards in a dream may seem a simple enough image, but it points out how the process in our unconscious works. In this instance, the game brings in elders, or the dreamers relatives who have passed on. And the game provides a way for those with “ancient wisdom” to interact with the energies at play. Just as we do when we seek to find solutions in daily life, our inner life uses all the information and connections at its disposal to bring separate elements together.

Jeane: So about that time, too, or even earlier, I had a dream in which the main thing I remember from it is it did seem to have a lot of characters in it of older movie stars, that I grew up with, who were around like Robert De Niro and Dustin Hoffman.
And then I was going and sitting at a round table and playing poker with some of my older relatives who passed on. And I just don’t remember much else about that dream because the colors were kind of dark, and there were a lot of people and little dialogue going on.
John: It’s a dream that has a mix in it, in that you’re trying to mix the energetics that exist in terms of what you are familiar with, in terms of the outer, with the chemistry that occurs from the higher-self part, that’s on an inner level, that is able to affect manifestation.
That’s generally considered the spirit energy that is able to come into a game and, in that game play, and, of course, the game then would be life, and the spirit energy would be this essence of your superiors, or this quality inside of yourself that has a sight about things, a knowingness about things, a depth, an inner depth – on the other side – in terms of things.
Again, it’s like a type of masculine energy. The feminine energy is just having a sensibility of the whereabouts as you are in matter, that the masculine doesn’t tend to have and tends to be askew. The higher self for you has to do with the recognition of sight that comes through that can seem like it’s, well, you call it your relatives, or your superiors, or can seem to be coming from another place outside, other than what is just in manifestation per se, or in matter in your environment per se. And that it has its way of playing in life. It can design. It can shape. It can cause things to be quickened or to happen in life.
So the game itself, and that card playing, is like the action of what comes into the outer which is a denseness in which the spirit energy is unconscious, and it sets in motion an activity, or a consequence, that causes something more to unfold. And what unfolds there is recognized by the feminine as a greater dimensionality in terms of the mystery of the whole. And the whole in this case is both inner and outer.
The feminine is always trying to figure out this and to ponder that in terms of what is going on, and is always interested in information that helps in the seeming sorting out of how it is that things are, as she moves around in the outer. And that comes from this other space like this.
Now, of course, we have all kinds of conceptual ways that we attempt to do this, like going and studying this, or trying to figure out that, or trying to be connected to an unfoldment that has its conceptual borders in terms of trying to engage, studying sciences and such. You have all of these bifurcations and subrogations from what can be just that inner direction.
That inner direction is able like for example to sit around and play cards and in so doing of the sitting around and in the connection like that brought… you know, designed something that touches manifestation. And that part of yourself that can do that, so that it touches manifestation, is something that you have to access in order to change the storyline of manifestation which you are immersed in naturally.
You’re immersed in a way which has the naturalness of both matter and spirit, but not working in cohesion, because the spirit energy is veiled within the matter. And although it is there, you can’t quite reach it, and that’s where this other energy, this other vibration, has to and needs to awaken.
And you are, from the first dream, doing something to keep this from happening that has to do with a venturing out, or an attempt to come to grips with things that involves somehow or another giving up a space, that is important in terms of your rootedness about things in manifestation. And this moving away, the inflection that is not being taken into account has something to do with the kitten, whatever that kitten might be.
