Guest guest Posted January 14, 2003 Report Share Posted January 14, 2003 Speaking of dreams we've been having lately, I had one last night that was transformational for me. Speaking to the embracing of the feminine energy... I dreamnt that my husband was bringing me somewhere...there was something he wanted me to look at. We also had small child with us (we don't have children in real life). When we got where we were going, he showed me this litter of cats...I knelt down and reached out to pet one, a carmel colored one with stripes on the forehead, (it was a kitten)and it reached out with it's paws, extending it's nails and sunk them into my Jupiter finger (index) and every part of it's being seemed to be melding with mine and I remember thinking "I can't "not" take this home with me now, it's become an integral part of me." During sadhana this morning, I found myself contemplating what this dream represented for me? For me... cats represent the female energy, they remind me of Egypt and that reminds me of feminine energy, for whatever reason......having this female energy grasp my jupiter finger (knowledge,ability,expansion) was an integration of this energy and a symbol of the expansion possible by accepting it fully into my life. Having a child present, when I currently have no children, represented the creative force in action and the index finger represents something else for me as well. A couple of years ago, right after an SNR workshop I had attended, I dreamnt that my teacher basically was trying to kill me. Without going into the whole dream, long story short, in the end of the dream ,what began looking and feeling like a killing was actually a healing taking place! (but that's another dream!) .....in this dream I speak of, as I was "being killed" I remember reaching out with my index finger, not being able to see if anyone was there or not, but knowing I had to try, because the pain I was experiencing felt like an unbearable load to bear alone..I needed someone to hold my hand through it. I don't know who, but somebody wrapped their index finger around mine and with that I surrendered to the pain and proccess I was encountering. With that act of surrender...the dream transformed and I was able to see then, that I was under going a healing, not a killing process(other than my ego being killed..symbolically). In this dream, I beleive it must have been the Divine that wrapped their finger around mine...carrying me through the pain...sustaining me. And I think the message now is the same..."your being carried". I am reminded of that poem...Footprints in the Sand... where a person walks along the beach with God looking back at their life as footprints in the sand and at the most trying times,there is only one set.. and the person gets angry...asking, why God did you forsake me in my hour of need, when I needed you most you left me??? and God replies... It was at those times that I carried you... May we all be Divinely guided and carried in our lives, Sat Sangeet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 14, 2003 Report Share Posted January 14, 2003 Dear Sat Sangeet, That's sure a well analyzed dream!I too have had some really confusing dreams of late with no connection with what's happening in the present, but have been at a complete loss to analyze them. Have made lame attempts but in vain!. I think it's great that you can hear the calling of your subconscious mind and use it for your benefit! Thanks for sharing your experience. Sat Nam!
