Dream Interpretation

Thursday, January 31st, 2008

A dear friend and client recently wrote me this email:

“Debbie,

 

I had a terrible dream that you were not feeling well and very sick and  I was worried about you… It was one of those dreams where everything was in complete darkness and you were in the light and then not and I heard you were sick, so you know how that set off many alarms.”

Here’s my response:

I’m fine! More likely, it’s anxiety about your Self, not necessarily your physical health, although maybe that, but your emotional health. Always in a dream, the people are representatives of some part of ourselves. You would have to decide what I represent to you - so if we were interpreting your dream, I’d ask you to tell me about Debbie, what she’s like, what is the first thing you think of when you think of her, etc. Describe her, physically, emotionally, etc. Then, you have to recognize that those are all YOUR attributes, being mirrored back to you through the symbol of Debbie. If THAT ASPECT OF YOU is “sick”, then you know where you need to help yourself to be well!

People often tell me they’ve dreamt of me, and I think it’s because I might represent their own inner teacher, healer or guide - since most often, that’s why they’ve met me, through having a reading, or hypnosis session, attended a class, etc. So if my friend is seeing me in the dream, and I represent her own guidance, which at first is in the light (being recognized or available) and then in the darkness (perhaps representing that she’s not in touch with own emotions, or her own guidance system) then she might have such a dream to help her realize that she needs to get back to her own Self as a source.

Indeed, she commented in the letter that another hypnosis session, where she had already been able to contact her inner Self, was a good idea - so the dream message from her subconscious worked!

Pay attention to your dreams - I think of them as the fastest and most direct way to find out exactly what’s going on with YOU!

Question about Soulmates that have passed

Friday, January 25th, 2008

A young client of mine is suffering the grief of losing a dear boyfriend, who we tuned in to during a recent reading. She then wrote that “I’m having a very hard time and I need to know that he’s listening and watching. I need to talk to him to see if he really knows what I going on. And if we are old soulmates, how can we live apart??”

Here’s my answer:

I absolutely promise you that he’s listening and watching and trying his best to let you know he’s with you!

We have lots of soulmates that aren’t incarnated in this lifetime, they’ve stayed in spirit, and others that we only know briefly, (like M., who has died so young), and others that come into our lives and leave again, like teachers and schoolmates and friends, etc. Just because someone’s a soulmate doesn’t mean it’s a life long relationship, it doesn’t even mean we’ll like each other! It just means we have a long, extremely close tie that spans many lifetimes, for better or worse. I’ve often seen that people who are enemies, or in terribly abusive relationships, are actually soulmates that have come back together to try to work things out. In any case, with your friend, you’re still loving soulmates, but he’s just not in the physical form any longer; it doesn’t change how he feels about you!

Happy New Year!

Tuesday, January 1st, 2008

Happy New Year, everyone! Hope your holidays were fun and relaxing, and that all your wishes came true!

Now is a great time to think about what you’d like to manifest this year - what are you focusing on? Some people call it making resolutions, but I like the idea of “setting intentions” better. We’ve all tried to make, and keep, resolutions over the years, but mostly have failed, so the connotations nowadays are negative. By resolving to set your intention for the future, you will use more positive imagery and your subconscious fear of failure can be sidestepped.

So, start now - write them down, visualize what you’d like to have happen, dream big! Whatever you intend to have happen is exactly what WILL happen - so make it good. Remember, what you focus on, expands - you get more of it. So make sure your intentions are phrased in positive terms, and you put your attention on what you want, not on what you don’t want.

Thanks for stopping by - send me your comments and questions!

Debbie
