The Malway tribe, dancing with palm leaves in the ethereal Amazon
On Sunday, I am going to be participating in my first ever Dream Circle. I’m not sure yet what it will specifically entail, but I’m beyond excited. I’ve been meditating about what intentions I’ll bring, and the dreams I’ll declare. I believe we’ll all sit in a circle, and to start with, the levels of dreams will be discussed. There are 4 levels, by the way – beginning with our own individual paths, and for the truly enlightened, ending with the collective unconscious and unified dreams we all share. People that buzz on a plane closest to the universal energies dream those dreams. This includes both the waking, conscious goals, and those visions given to us in slumber. Dreaming is complicated. That’s why most of us stop doing it as we age.
This is good timing for me, as the dream I clung to the most in the last few years – my end all be all – is happening. I’m getting a novel published. I never cared about the scale of it – I am perfectly happy to release it in small doses. But it’s really truly transpiring, and more magical than I ever imagined. I’m ready to elevate to stage 2 – start realizing the dreams that impact not just me, but my immediate surroundings – the people that I love. Which is everyone. I’m not sure what this looks like – how it is I will impact the world on a massively grand scale. Perhaps with my words, but I envision more effort on my part. It’s not that writing a book is easy; it’s just that I know I’m capable of doing more for this world.
When I got back to the Amazon this December, I’ve got a few massive intentions already plotted out. Those are what I’ll bring with me to the circle. My dream for myself and my world – to stop fighting with myself (in my case, this goddamn body image issue), and to help others release this fruitless banter too. I want to live life as a full-time novelist. I also want to tap more into the clairvoyance I’ve had since I was a wee one – well, to be fair, it’s the very same power we all have. For some reason, I’ve known and believed in mine. I’d like to hone it, to figure out how to use that gift and be more of a healer. It’s time I stop narrowing my focus of what I can do with my dreams, and go for the cosmos. The universe is listening.
