LITTLE DREAM, BIG JOURNEY

I was with a group of people outdoors at night. My husband was among them. It's rather hazy but the rest of the group suggested we (my husband and I) go and spend time at a camping site where a group of people they all knew and liked very much were staying. After much deliberation and hesitation it was finally decided that we would go. My husband was not keen on the idea, but eventually agreed to my setting out alone.

I was driving a white sedan beside a grassy bank and there may have been a canal running along the other side. I felt somewhat scared but also excited.

As I drove up the bank the car stopped. I had run out of petrol. I got out and looked in the boot. It was full of equipment and gear. I remembered that my husband's parting words were not to run out of petrol. Why hadn't I filled the car up? I looked back and realised I had made a conscious decision not to, having faith I would be OK, and, perhaps, to thwart my husband.

I walked on ahead and over the brow of the grassy bank, and lo and behold, there were the people I was looking for. I went up to them and told them my story. They were wonderful - warm, welcoming and helpful. One of the women drove me into town to get petrol for my car. I was struck by how effortless and carefree it was on their part. Nothing was a problem. They radiated love.


INTERPRETATION

At first glance several things in your dream seem to conspire against you making progress. These include: hesitation, husband initially not keen on the idea and running out of petrol.

By the end of the dream everything had become effortless and carefree, so, in fact, you did make wonderful progress. The question is, was the progress in spite of, or because of the apparent obstacles?

This is the paradox of the spiritual journey: it is the obstacles to our progress that teach us what we need to know, what ultimately liberates us.

At the end of your dream you arrived at a place of love with access to all the help you needed, but to get there you needed first to leave behind your husband, then your car with all the equipment and gear. You had to let go and have faith in order to succeed.

It’s interesting that you set yourself up to test your faith by deliberately not putting enough petrol in the car. You created the obstacle to let it teach you, just as you created the initial deliberation and hesitation to teach you about overcoming doubt.

This is certainly a spiritual journey, as evidenced by the colour of your car (white and pure) and the sense of love radiating at the destination. As with all spiritual journeys, it is also one that you must ultimately make alone, as you did in the dream, leaving husband, car and chattels behind and walking on by yourself. This is not to say we need to be physically alone in our spiritual journeying, of course. To the contrary, we learn most from the dynamics of relationship. The point is that a spiritual journey is an inner one, one made within oneself. Two people can journey the same path, but it is how the path speaks to you (or, more precisely, how you hear it) that makes all the difference.

How wonderful that you unconsciously misspelled your spiritual destination as a camping ‘sight’ rather than a site, confirming it as a place of insight.

There's a message in each dream. Don't let your message go unread! Your husband, in your dream, represents your Yang, your outer world. Whether a person is man or woman, it is the Yin part of the self, the inner world that experiences the spiritual journey. From your dream it seems that whatever you are doing in your outer world, or whatever you believe in your outer world, is in agreement with the spiritual journey but not keen on the idea. Why not? There is a sense that what you learn from your spiritual journey will change how you are in the outer world. Therein lies your hesitation, but you move on to demonstrate faith in the outcome. You thought that not putting enough petrol in the car was done in part to thwart your husband. In dream terms this is you thwarting your Yang, saying, “This part of my journey is not to be run according to my outer world beliefs”.

Where in your life now do you find yourself thwarting your outer world goals, or sabotaging your plans? Reconsider your actions from a different perspective: why do you need to create obstacles to change the direction of your journey? Why not simply opt to walk a different road for a while?

A key may be your dream’s choice of the car and petrol symbol. Your car (drive and motivation) needs to be stalled (stop feeding it with energy) to give you time out to experience (be instead of do) a different path.

Living requires ebb and flow, a state of balance. Such a dream shows a need to balance the outer world journey with the inner world one. Watch your dreams for clues as to when to top up your car with petrol and take a drive on the outer world side for a while – with new eyes, of course.


DREAM ALCHEMY PRACTICE

Affirmation:

Here’s an affirmation using your dream symbols:

"I have faith in my journey. I am welcomed and helped by radiating love. I am fuelled by an effortless and carefree energy."

How to use your affirmation/ and how often:

Say your affirmation out loud and with feeling 30 times a day for the first week. From the second week say your affirmation out loud and with feeling once in the morning and once before you go to sleep for three more weeks.

How does this work?

This works by communicating directly with your unconscious mind using its own language, to transform the belief your dream is revealing.
