My dream life appears to be spiraling out of control. After what seemed like hours going up and down as I worked on an elevator in a skyscraper, I woke up at 2:30am with some shaky elevator legs (tee hee). When I drifted off to sleep once again, I was with a group of friends, and the men were gathering around a table to start a card game. I remember having this dream a few months back but refused to play, probably due to the heavy smoking around the table (yuk).
The cards were unlike anything I had seen before. Many of the cards had images of dogs. I remember one had a Champagne Boxer, whatever that means. (tee hee) On the table was a large book that explained the card deck, but most of the players could not answer any of my questions about the deck or any aspect of the game. As I flipped through the book, I came to a section with early illustrations of circus performers; most were trapeze artists, men flying through the air, or being shot out of a cannon.
Everyone started to lay two cards on the table to begin the game. Each person had a small blue folder in which to place the cards. Since I knew nothing of the game or strategy, I pulled two cards at random. I felt incredulous as I glanced at the two cards I had drawn, placed them in the folder and laid them on the table. One of my cards had the image of a man flying through the air with outstretched arms. It was a rather beautiful image. As I placed the folder with my cards on the table, one man grabbed them. He looked at me with disbelief as he spoke, “You are leading with your flying man?” The rest of group looked at me with disdain as I proudly replied, “Yes, I am leading with my flying man.” What does that mean?
Dreaming is a form of connection to other dimensions. One dimension is occupied by your mind and the mental plane where your imagination has the freedom to playfully create experiences in the mystery of your dreams. Your energy body, or the essence of your being, can project into other dimensions of the astral plane beyond the physical. Energy bodies in other dimensions can interact with the entire mind, body, and spirit of the physical being.
The sensations and information that you return with after your journeys contain aspects of life, the afterlife realms, your soul group realm, ancestors, guides, and many lifetimes. The fabric of the Universe is woven in dreams to give access to information that is beyond the physical, yet the body is having the experience. The mystery of life becomes integrated in the cellular make-up of the experience of the present moment.
The more you access and use other dimensions through intuition and senses beyond the body, the more open and active you become with your dreams. The more you open the pineal gland, pituitary gland, and the mind’s eye, the more vivid your experiences become. The more you seek, the more you will discover. The greater the questions you ask, the more expansive the answers may become. Every aspect of the dream becomes part of the journey. When you get on the dream bus, you may not know where it is taking you or where you will arrive.
The message with the elevator relates to the cycles of life and the journey of the soul, with reference to your physical incarnations. Leading with your flying man is your willingness to shine in the face of darkness and be your best self. Your not understanding the game is the key aspect to the reality of life in a world dictated by destiny and free will, both yours and the people around you.
Bring joy, ease suffering and create beauty, then dance like you mean it!
Blessings, Russell
