Dream interpretation: Let it flow – slippery secrets revealed
Sometimes it pays not to think too hard when writing about your dream in your journal, recording it in audio, or recounting it to a partner or friend. Let loose a little with your handwriting or typing, speed it up and don’t worry about spelling mistakes, grammar, or typos. When telling someone about your dream, don’t think about tidying it into a story, or adding humour. Instead, let it tumble out without edit. Why? When

Does a full moon affect dreams?
Some dreams are more vivid and memorable than others, and they seem to come in cycles, a burst of vivid dreams grabbing our attention every so often before we return to runs of the more mundane variety.

Dream interpretation: Naked in public
Have you ever dreamed of being naked in public? It’s a very common dream theme. What does it mean?

Dancing yin to yang
In night dreams I am the most spectacular dancer, always harmoniously partnered, cheek to cheek, heart to heart, soul to soul.
