Fragment: Art Leap

(Wednesday, June 28, 2023) waxing gibbous moon Scorpio / tarot ace of swords

I dream I am heading up to the Art Leap. My sister Jo appears in the dream. I need to put aside an art project and schedule four days of vacation. This could be prescient as I have the design of a clay project ready to go once I finish some outdoor house painting projects.

In the early part of the dream I am lying in my bed, waking up, and people are near me are working on tasks with their own agendas.

There is much more to the dream but I slept so long and sound last night it has trickled away.

Day notes:

Jo and I have recently been conversing a lot more than we have in the past. That feels good, but many of the discussions are about my father. He was in the hospital again last week and is definitely on decline. My brother and his partner are planning a big 90th birthday party for our dad. Jo and I feel that is a mistake. He’s not really up for it.

We Are One, We Are None

In the third week of June, 2023, I had two nearly identical dreams.

I am in a community space that is unlimited. Membership in our community is also unlimited. I have no plot or agenda in the dreams. Neither do any of our community. I have no sense of being the focus of the dream or even the observer. We are all equal. The dream is about our eternal, universal connection to each other and manifested dimensions. At least that is my take based on Thich Nhat Hanh’s discussion about the nature of existence in his book “No Death, No Fear.”

6/19/23 Five Snippets

  1. I am with Paul. We are in a clearing in the woods. Three wolves come close, but we scare them away.

2. Paul and I are traveling. I carry three baking dishes of Gretchen’s. She had given them to Paul and I with cakes, etc. in them. They are empty now.

I want my turn to go to a woman at a desk so she can check my credentials. I see three, attractive, white-haired women come back from their break and sit at their desks.

I like the woman I work with. She is loud. (?) I have all of my papers. She gives me a bag to put my car keys in to keep them dry.

3. Paul and I are with others outside somewhere. There are these huge, tree-like, strawberry bushes with huge strawberries hanging from the branches. I ask Paul to take a photo of me next to one of the strawberries. I intend to eat one of them afterwards.

4. Paul and I are going somewhere. I need to change my sweat pants. We are outside near some male workers. I take off my green sweats and realize I do not have any underwear on. I feel embarrassed. I can’t find my navy sweats, so I put my green ones back on.

5. I am talking to some people about how to relax using a pillow. Some men scoff at this idea.
