Not all of our dreams have specific messages for us, but almost all of them have insights into what we are dealing with and where we are in the process. And, as we can see from these two dreams, sometimes the dreams show the process itself, of how our unconscious works with the elements at play in our lives. We can see that the images themselves don’t share a visual connection, but they do show different stages as the dreamer evolves the unfolding from dream to dream.

Jeane: Initially, my dream last night, wherever I was I think I started out initially I think there was a train, and then I was in a building. I had two companions with me, but they were actually skeletons. One of them I could actually pick up and carry, but they were alive.
And it felt like sometimes I tried to disguise that a little because other people got interested. Then it felt like there was someone that was definitely interested, how did I have these skeletons? I could talk to them and they could move or dance, they were alive, and how was that?
And then I seemed to pop out of that and wake up, and I think all the feelings about kind of leaving a family home hit me, just kind of walking in and being comfortable in the living room, and how the rugs are and that Dad’s there. And, for some reason, all of that hit me in the middle of the night.
And then I went back to sleep, and this time I was in a dream that was more in a school setting, but it wasn’t like people were at school. It was more like the auditorium and the meeting space and the things that go on in a small community that kind of center around a school after hours. And I had met a woman and I was intrigued with a certain way that she had of dressing. She had a skirt that kind of slit up the side rather discreetly, but it had a certain style to it and she offered to introduce me to the woman who developed the style who was coming to talk to a group that night.
And I put on a similar style based on seeing what she’s wearing, and when the woman comes we talk and she doesn’t notice at first that I actually not only want to learn more about her style but that I’m wearing it, because her attention is focused more on the person that was already presenting, or on the group.
And she has me come out in front of the group with her to talk to me, but again she doesn’t seem to be totally connected in that, and where everybody is at in the room, even though she’s someone that had kind of started a trend. I’m not sure where the dream went from there because I was just having trouble settling down last night.
John: I think what you’re doing is you’re establishing cycles in life. And in the outer, the outer always reflects the inner.
And so you can have a particular cycle and you’re looking at it in an overall way. It’s like you’re looking at a train which is something in motion, and then a house which is holding a particular space. And something that’s in motion is expansive. That which is a house is contractive.
And so you are creating images that go back and forth, and the images aren’t real, they’re shadows, they’re skeletons. And so from that dream you progress to another dynamic that has to do with how you’re working with it. In other words, that’s kind of a general dynamic that has to do with the way your energy naturally is in relationship to the whole. And then in a general dynamic you create an image in which it’s more like a school.
So a school is putting it into a personal action. And so in the school you have an image of something that is maintaining a certain persona, like it has a dress that comes way up at this particular thing.
So the second thing is portraying an energetic in terms of how you work with it. So the first dream is a setting, kind of like a scenario, a given scenario, an overall scenario, in which you have the expansive and the contractive. And in the second setting you have how it is that you’re working with it. You know, it’s like at a school setting, which means it’s how you’re working with it, and from that comes something that can be portrayed in terms of what is unfolding – and that would be the future.
So you’ve taken the energetics, and the first energetic, which has both the expansive and the contractive in it, you might say it’s a Brahman energy. And then how you’re working with it is Vishnu. And then what it is meant to portray, in terms of the future and whatnot, is kind of like a Shiva energy. So you’ve taken and you’ve looked at these things from the standpoint of a general overall image in life. How something is imaged in life.
