Dreaming well at night with leftover fragments. I dream I am sleeping and awaken at 1:06 pm. Immediately I realize I was supposed to attend a birthday party for my neighbor Jim at noon (12 pm). I rush out of bed to get dressed.
Another dream is about being in a large, dark forest at the edge of a northern lake. It is dark because the trees are ancient: tall and thick. I walk from the grassy shore into the woods. Much happens, but I don’t recall what occurs during the hike. My only memory is the joy of spending time in the forest.
Day notes:
Cindy’s Decoding class makes me wonder about 1:06. The sum is 7. I’m sure she would see much more than numerology about this time of day. Maybe she would focus on one-hundred-six. The house next-door is 106 Rustic Lodge, but Jim’s address is 107 (directly across the street). One definition of 7: highly mystical and spiritual, often associated with introspection, inner wisdom, and a deep connection to the divine.
106 – 12 = 94, 9 + 4 = 13, 1 + 3 = 4. One definition of 4: stability, grounding and balance. Earth, air, fire and water. North, south, east and west.
The greenery of nature (forests and prairies) are a recent theme. Mansions are a theme from many years of dreams. But dreaming about dreaming is a more recent, recurrent theme. I wonder about that. The first time I read anything about this was in anthropologist Carlos Castaneda’s 1968 book “The Teachings of Don Juan.” The cover has a raven standing on a desert, with rocky mountains at the edge. When I am done with Edgar Cayce’s biography, I might buy Castaneda’s book. I did just order his last one, “The Art of Dreaming,” from Hennepin County Library.
