Dream Alchemy – secret spells

I’m about to give you some magical formulae you can use to transform your life. They’re simple, yet powerful. They’re serious, and they work, but for a bit of fun I’ve arranged them as magic spells from an imaginary book of alchemical secrets. Before we delve in, though, let’s look at the theory so you […]
Ep 73 The Dream Show: Live Dream Interpretation. Melanie dreamed a man died when she tried to help him

Melanie is my guest, with a healing dream, though you might wonder why a disturbing dream involving death can possibly be a healing dream. It all goes to show that dreams are not what they seem, and the most distressing dreams can sometimes be the most healing. Melanie dreamed that she administered an injection to […]
Dream interpretation: UFOs and aliens

Have you ever seen a UFO or an alien in your dreams? Have you communicated with extraterrestrials, or visited other planets? Or do you have a vague feeling, perhaps even a memory, of having been abducted by aliens, or of travelling in a spaceship or UFO before being returned to wake in your own […]
Healing with dream alchemy

What kind of results are you getting from doing dream alchemy? Doing, is the important word. You can read about it (my book, The Dream Handbook), understand how it works, design one for yourself, but it’s only when you actually commit to doing a dream alchemy practice that magic – healing magic – happens. Helen […]
Ep 72 The Dream Show: Live Dream Interpretation. Dail dreamed of being lost in a big city

My guest, Dail, shares her experience of running one of her dreams through our DIY free interpretation program. (Note, April 2013: After 13 years of use we’ve now retired this program.) You pop your dream in one end, answer some short, simple questions, and emerge at the other end of the process with a clearer […]
Dream Alchemy: All lit up

I love hearing stories like this one. Renee Price, a keen listener of our podcast show, flew interstate last week to visit a relative in a hospice. She took my book, Dream Alchemy, (2019: Retitled The Dream Handbook) with her, and was moved to email me her experience. (I asked Renee for permission to share […]
Dream touchstones

When is a piece of jewellery not a piece of jewellery? (That’s jewelry for those of you who smile at our English-Australian spelling.) Remember Heidi, my guest on episode 68 of The Dream Show? Heidi is a celebrity TV presenter of a cooking show in Shanghai, and also runs Sanctus Stones, a wearable energy business, […]
Ep 71 The Dream Show: The connection between Inception and dream alchemy

What’s the link between Inception, the movie, and Dream Alchemy? Inception is about entering into a person’s dream and changing the storyline to create a changed waking life outcome, while Dream Alchemy is about changing the storyline of your own dream, once you’ve woken up, to create a changed waking life outcome. In Inception, the […]
Your personal dream dictionary

Buying a dream dictionary from a bookshop is not really going to be very helpful to you because most dream symbols are personal to the dreamer. An elephant in Joe’s dream might mean something completely different to an elephant in Matt’s dream, for example. Joe might be a cartoonist who learned his first cartooning skills […]
Dream interpretation: Slo-mo with glue feet

Have you ever dreamed of trying to walk or run somewhere only your feet feel glued to the ground, or the air around you seems viscous and sticky, making what should be an easy pace into an intense gym workout? You have? It’s a very common dream theme. So what does it mean, and why […]
