the road to love.

Observations:

Real love is the dawn of a new age.
Its arcana is Judgment.
A surprise encounter on the road to destiny;
The angels of Asia will show the way.

A SLEEPING GODDESS | "In my dream I see a boy coming back from a farm house. He is dragging a dead woman's body by her hair, which he dumps near the house. I grab the boy by his hair and, holding him off the ground, I proceed to walk around the back of the farm house towards some crop. On the way I see a dead male lion, and a lioness comes toward me growling. The lioness runs towards me and snatches the boy from my hands, then runs towards the crop."

dream's interpretation | You are forbidden to continue, with the ideas you are carrying. These ideas (the little boy) kill part of your destiny (the body dumped beside the farmhouse) in order to move toward its view of prosperity and success (the crop).  Not only do these priorities sacrifice your dreams, but those of your future mate (the dead male lion).  Whether or not you understand, the Promise within you will not allow it.  Prosperity shall elude you until you rework your ideas with future love in mind.

A SLEEPING GODDESS | "In my dream last night, I was in a ballet class. We were being evaluated by two administrators, an Asian male and female. They told me that I needed more practice, and the girl asked the guy to recommend private studios in the area. When I heard this I was upset because to me it meant they were not accepting me, so I turned around and walked away."

dream's interpretation | A spiritual appraisal is occurring, of your personal balance. An Asian male and female are the perfect balance of love; more is needed to achieve this important balance.  Do not feel indignant.  Love and companionship is a necessary step to all personal balance and harmony.  The Universe will assist you.

A SLEEPING GOD | "Last night I dreamed a woman needed to get something, in which I offered to help her. We then crawled through some tubing into a room of pipes. She undressed to her underwear, looking quite beautiful. Then she told me we need to go deeper inside. That's when an alarm sounded and water started to form in the area we were in, and I heard screams from people who apparently came with us."

dream's interpretation |  Intimacy is possible to a certain point, but any deeper delving into your private self triggers an emotional reaction (the water, and the people screaming). Give a woman the deeply-satisfying love she needs; be willing to open up all levels of your Self.

A SLEEPING GODDESS | "I am late for an Asian lady's class.  She knows an impressive amount of martial arts. Then I see a young, happy, idealistic couple getting married in a lake. A friend of the bride watches from afar jealously. The bride comes over to her and hands her a single large beautiful red rose, but when the jealous friend takes it something terrible happens to the bride: she faints or falls into a deep sleep."

dream's interpretation | Learn that love is a natural, excellent response (martial arts) to your given situation.  Observe the truth about love: filling one another's needs and emotions, the couple in the middle of their lake.  The inner pessimist declares it unobtainable and idealistic.  If it encounters the truth and splendor of love, the beautiful red rose, it immediately suppresses it.  Silence this voice; respond at the ready to the gift of a man's affection.

the tree of life.

Observations:

The tree is the original inner totem.
A living map of legacies and lifelines; a reference for the gods.

Be rooted by faith in the Universe first;

Be grafted to the lifeline of spiritual forces.

A SLEEPING GODDESS | "I stood by an empty plot of land.  There is a lone tree at the end of the plot. I gaze around and suddenly notice a ghost (!) up in the air. It seemed to gesture painfully, as if nobody cared about it. Suddenly all in one motion, it landed in my arms, wrapped its own arms around me, laid its head on my shoulder, and died. I woke up sobbing in great grief."

dream's interpretation | Nothing has been built upon your Self; your true destiny lies empty and desolate.  A prolific life was never realized.  Ghosts, half in this realm, half gone to another, are possibilities which expire if their window runs out.  What should have been, and Who you should have become, has finally passed away forever.

A SLEEPING GODDESS | "A strange dream: there was a governor and his wife, mixed up with marijuana. And a large statue on my old school grounds, which is being auctioned off before they tear the school down. A wasp chasing and stinging my husband, and a large old tree that someone chops down."

dream's interpretation | A domineering man (the governor) gains a false sense of empowerment (marijuana) from his status.  He is the subject of hot, passive-aggressive anger (the wasp that chases and stings him).  It is a time of rebellion not only against his tyranny, but against your upbringing and beliefs -- the revolution occurring on your learning grounds, and that longstanding, unquestioned tree that finds itself being cut away.

A SLEEPING GODDESS | "Standing on a beach, I looked out across the water.  I knew that something was wrong. I began running towards a large and great old tree with bare limbs, and as I did the water pulsed forward, biting at my ankles. I flung myself into the tree, and without a second to spare I held my breath as the water surpassed my head. I knew that I could either let go and hope for the best, or drown with the tree."

dream's interpretation | On the cusp of all that is known, grounding and familiar (the sand) and all that is unknown and yet to be discovered (the waters), you lose heart and doubt your future.  Fear turns the unknown into a threat, so that we re-cling to outdated supports, shown as the old, dried-up tree. Allow the world to sweep you off to new realms and discoveries; do not "drown" and refuse to break away.

A SLEEPING GODDESS | "I had a dream that I and a group of people were trying to find our way in an extremely rural area. We walked down a straight, unpaved, white dusty road. One side of the road was a broad and barren field with a single tree in the middle. On the other side, was a lush and green field that was lined with green trees and flowers. As I looked towards the barren field, I noticed that there were no houses, no barns, no livestock. Nothing except that one tree."

dream's interpretation | Embark down the noble course, with all available strength and resources (the accompanying group) to find your way. Souls like yours are rare, as the not-so-trodden road and sparse human presence attest.  The tree is a sign that a life-story begins here; do as children of Eden (the lush green field) and develop your Self. Where there is no house, no barn, no development -- it all waits on you.  Tend the true task that lies in your heart.
