The Hidden Treasures of Dreaming - Spirit of Ma'at

Dialoguing With Your Dream WorldClose your eyes. Breathe out three times, counting from three back to one. See the ''1''tall, clear, and very bright.Imagine that you are standing in a meadow, looking up into a clear blue sky.Stretching your arm up to the sun, and catching a ray of light, use this ray of light todraw a circle of light in the right-hand side of the sky. Breathe out and bring your armdown.Look into the circle of light, and see what wonders are appearing there for you. Whenyou have seen, respond directly if the need arises. Or else, if the image completes andsatisfies you, breathe out and open your eyes.There are an infinity of ways of tapping into the imaginal Source. Clues to how this canbe done may be found by modeling yourself on the poet. The poet inhabits a no-man'sland between words and image. He jolts us out of our habitual mode of seeing byjuxtaposed or leaping images, paradoxical or unexpected effects, sharp directionalshifts. Stuffy configurations are disposed of, new ones configured. You can learnabundantly from the poet's craft.Remember that your left brain wants to disclaim everything you have just read. Yourright brain, on the contrary, leaps up to the bait of pattern, image, touch, sound, smell,and taste.Will you feed your hungry inner child the healthy foods of your imagination? If you doso, you not only heal yourself, but also propel yourself into new and exciting adventures.Like Eizik of Cracow, by actively participating in your own dreaming, you can discoverthe buried treasure in your hearth. Therein lies your own, inborn heritage of health,abundance, happiness, and a balanced life.
