Episode 58 of our free weekly podcast, THE DREAM SHOW, is now up.

Which area of your life would you like to improve? Today’s show focuses on helping you to achieve this.

Along the way, we have an update from Jeremy, my guest in episode 50, reporting on the changes in his life since doing the dream alchemy visualisation I gave him during the show.

We also look at interpreting waking life – our situation, the people we meet, our health, our challenges – in the same way that we interpret dreams. We touched upon this with Kate in episode 57 and Andrea in episode 56, and we explore this more deeply in today’s show.

Have you ever had the slo-mo dream, where the going gets really tough? We showcase this common dream to provide more tips to help you get to where you want to be. So, which area of your life would you like to improve? Here’s help: listen.

The mirror and the compass

Think of a dream as being a snapshot of you, today.

Are you looking for guidance from your dreams? Clear direction? A message to follow? People often think of dreams as being messages from a higher source, delivering an action plan for success.

It’s true that you can find guidance and life direction by interpreting a dream. You can even come up with a brilliant action plan for success, follow it, and achieve that success. But … you knew there was a ‘but’ coming, didn’t you? Here it is.

It is more accurate to say that your dreams tell you everything you need to know about who you are TODAY, how you see the world today, and why this is so.

Your dreams often look back and remind you of your past experiences and relate them to what is happening for you today, because your past has shaped who you are today and how you see the world today. Your past – and today – also shapes who you will be tomorrow, and how you will see the world tomorrow, IF YOU LET IT!

Think of a dream as being a snapshot of you, today. Of course, you need to be able to interpret your dream first to understand that snapshot, to see the big picture of you and your life as it is today. When you know how to do this, you really begin to understand yourself deeply and clearly, and this puts you in a position of great power.

Your dreams, once interpreted, give you a deeper view of yourself than you can get from any other method of self-understanding. Dreams show you your unconscious beliefs, feelings, attitudes, and ways of seeing the world. These will surprise you, at first, and then you will clearly see how these relate to your life. They explain why your life is the way it is today.

Look into the mirror of your dreams so you can set your compass to move towards the future you choose.

When you understand yourself as you are today, you have the power to change, to create a new you and a new way of seeing the world for tomorrow. Instead of repeating the same old cycles, going round in circles through the same old experiences, you can break free and move forward to the life you really want.

That’s the power and the magic of dream interpretation.

So don’t look for direct guidance from your dreams. Instead, look into the mirror of your dreams to understand your position TODAY so clearly that you can make changes and set your compass to move towards the future you choose.

Backwards or forwards?

Sometimes you need to go backwards to go forwards

This morning, I sat in the bow end of a small speedboat, my back to the direction of travel, as we idled along a broad river. A perfect cooling breeze, a heavenly way to start the day.

An elderly man sat on the riverbank, singing the boat into motion. This was a dream, of course. As his song picked up energy, the boat picked up speed, until we were flying so fast through the water that I held onto my seat to steady my body, though I knew I was really at the mercy of his song.

I looked behind me and saw that we were about to enter a wide tunnel, the ocean glinting on the other side. There was nothing to do but relax my back against the bow and trust the singer and the song to fly me through. And he did.

I woke up and immediately thought, ‘Sometimes you need to go backwards to go forwards.’

So true.

Yesterday I had been trying to do something technical on the internet and it just wasn’t working. Things seemed to conspire: the connection went slow, some code got lost, other priorities emerged, the site I needed to access was closed for maintenance.

“It’s like two steps forward, three backwards,” I was heard to proclaim at a low ebb, forgetting the law of vibration, the law of attraction.

I gave up. Went and did some yoga. Got ‘in tune’ and ‘back in the flow’, and when I went online again I saw a much better solution to what I was trying to achieve in the first place. I was so glad my earlier efforts had been thwarted, that I had been saved from doing the technical thing in a long, complicated way instead of in a short, simple, much better way.

I had needed to go backwards, to go forwards.

Somewhere, at the back of my mind, out there on the riverbank of my unconscious, a wiser part of myself knew a better way forward. Once I tuned in and trusted the flow, I saw the light at the end of the tunnel.

Dreams reflect the last day or two, and update our personal understanding of the world. Mine did this.

Sometimes you need to go backwards to go forwards. Has this ever happened for you?
