Visiting One of Bonnie’s Dream Themes

(Friday, August 21, 2015) Moon: first quarter Scorpio / tarot: High Priestess reversed

Bonnie is driving a large station wagon. I am in the passenger seat. She turns left around a sharp corner and straight into the wall of an auto parts store. The crash seems deliberate, not accidental. She has a determined expression on her face, her jaw is firmly set.

She backs the car away from the building, and starts to drive away, down the busy street. The furious shop owner comes running out the door after us. He is a large burly man with dark hair, dark mood. He catches up to us, somehow manages to open the rear hatch of the car, and jumps inside. He is obviously extremely powerful. I am terrified. I am not strong enough to protect Bonnie. I give her a quick look (What are you thinking? Have you no fear?), then open the door and bail out of the speeding vehicle.

The dream shifts. I have found a way to Bonnie’s house, where the Dreamsters have gathered for our retreat. I let everyone know what has happened. Jeanne, Peter and Paul leave to see if they can bring Bonnie back to safety.

The design of Bonnie and Paul’s house is very odd. The rooms are narrow and long with half walls. The room openings connect in a back-and-forth pattern, like a maze.

The dream shifts again. Bonnie is safe, we are all back together as a group, as a family, in a different, larger house. Our biological family members are here too. I am talking to Jeanne’s 12-year-old son Michael. He has long blond hair cut in a page-boy style. His smile is lively. He is a good storyteller. He knows a lot about dreams and the realm of spirit, but is also very down-to-earth.

After I finish talking to the delightful Michael, I walk into another room that is far off the beaten path, a quiet space in the house where a handsome young father is lying on his side on a bed. He could be Jeanne or Bonnie’s son. He is nursing his small infant. I question him about his ability provide milk because I am interested in his story, even though I realize this is a dream where all is possible. His choice to nurse is indicative of his complete commitment to his family, both his child and his wife.
