I am in art class with one other guy. He is around 30 years old. I may be that age as well. Our woman teacher is middle aged. She brings a photo of a family of 4. It is soft focused. She has the guy and I put white paint on the canvas and asks what we think. It is too contrasty for the soft photo. I say this. I then suggest we bring our own photos to use. I picture one that I have in my head. She likes the idea ok.

The next class the teacher doesn’t show up. She has a garage sale and is busy. I am in the classroom. I am nude. I grab a blanket and wrap it around me. I go to tell the other guy that the teacher is not there. I see Paul and the guy in bed. They are also nude and just talking. I sit on the side of the bed and tell them about the teacher. We are all very comfortable.

Susanne: It’s an art to be at ease when you are naked. In the second dream, I make a full turn. I’m back where I started: nurturing a baby outside the crib: not my own child (physically or mentally) but still welcome. The bed in both dreams is a place of love, comfort and warmth.

Christian: A teacher tells us who we are, what to do, but when the teacher is gone, we are exposed as the actual self we are.

Svitlana: In my dream of yours, as I am holding and feeding my baby, I am also growing close to people who were distant before. Is the baby bringing me close to the world at large?

I wake up in the morning crying very hard. I realize I cannot make it as a photographer. I then go and take a shower. After my shower, I go to my sister, Chris’ room. She is laying on the floor crying. I get down on the floor with her and ask her if she is crying because her husband died. I have a hard time remembering his name. Then I do. It is Keenan. (in waking life, her husband’s name is Richard and he is alive. My son-in-law is named Keenan)

I then go to the Celebration of Life for Chris’ husband. When I go in, his brother comes up and gives me a big hug. I feel uncomfortable. I feel I should feel more compassion for him, but I don’t.

I go into the backroom where there is a kitchen to make myself a cup of tea. My sister, Becky, is there. She shows me these two, large cards (like Tarot cards). They are pictures of basements. She says they represent snow. I ask her about going to Rutgers (a resort in northern Minnesota). Chris told me she had recently been there.

We go outside. There is a waterslide with warm water, running down it. It is winter outside. Becky asks if I want to go down it. I say no.

I am then inside at the Celebration of Life. A woman comes up to me and asks if I would take some photos of the singer who is singing for the celebration. I go to find my coat with my iPhone in the pocket. I look all over and cannot find it.

The last scene is where Paul and I are driving home. Paul is driving. I tell him I don’t have my iPhone. I feel nervous, but accepting.

Susanne: Big hug. You’ve been through a lot of heartache. (I told the group about being cut off by Kevin and Antonia). I am fascinated by the water in your dream. The first appearance are the tears you shed, the shower (like tears warm water flowing down with the purpose of cleansing), crying again now on the floor: emotion touches earth, warm water in the form of tea, cold water in the form of snow on Tarot cars, warm water on the water slide. The Tarot cards seem to be a positive turning point. Snow is frozen water, frozen emotions. It’s easier to analyze in that form. The final form is warm water running down a water slide. Usually children play with that. Somehow I get a positive feeling because of this ending.

Meredith: Family dynamics and feelings of loss. If it were my dream. Water is a cleansing element. The smart phone missing may be associated with lack of the ability to communicate. The tarot type cards, hints for future efforts to dig into the depths of the issues. Much love and hugs to you.

A woman is in the hold of a ship with other passengers. She is setting up a trip wire that is attached to a bomb. I think she pulls it off and it will go off later.

Meredith: In my own experience, I think world affairs are slipping into my dreams. What is scheduled to go off later that has a huge impact?

Christian: What might it be that is “on hold”? A ship is on the surface of the water, with the surface being the interface with the conscious mind and the waters of the unconscious mind. The deeper one goes, the deeper one is in the unconscious. A dream is set to go off and later on it will trip something in my memory.

Lauralee: I would wonder what it is I’d like to pull off?

Susanne: After traveling through air and on land, my inner anima now travels at sea. She is a leader, but not a good one. She is wired, but her antenna’s don’t pick up the good stuff that is floating around at sea: thoughts, whites, longings, even. No, she is connected to the third element, the one we missed until now. Fire. She uses her fire to maybe? sink the ship that she sails on through life. If she gets her passengers on fire, she herself will go as well unless she has a safe escape set up. How is your life boat sailing the seas now, Bonnie? Do you still have the fire in you to set the boat in the right direction? To pull the wire out of the bomb?
