A dream, a parallel world...

While we sleep, we work as selfishly as possible for ourselves. "Selfishly" should not be taken here in a pejorative sense. We travel astrally to different spheres, to other places, and we communicate at various levels, joining those whom the conscious mind does not allow us to meet because of the heaviness of our carnal vibrations.

Dreaming is a parallel life, different, the inverse of waking life; through it, we seek the beginnings of a new inner state. By day, we must live with the rational and the instinct in relation to a multitude of prohibitions, before which we must transcend ourselves to integrate socially; by night, we are freed.

One important thing is this: in our dreams Morality does not exist; morality fades away, the mask falls, allowing us liberation.

In our dreams, we confront our own nakedness, our weaknesses, and our defense mechanisms, whether adequate or maladaptive.

Moreover, it has been experimentally proven that our behavioral habits are the same in dream life as in waking life. The shy person remains shy and conceals it in symbolic language through their own reflexes. The reasons for these reactions and their origins must be discovered if one wishes to free oneself from them.

The automatic responses (conditioning) we have developed are highly interesting to explore. Ask yourself this question: How do you react in a dream when faced with a problem or a situation? Do you fight the enemy or do you submit to it? Are you the victor, or do you circumvent the situation through cunning, dialogue, persuasion, or flight?

Or do you run in your dreams, or are you simply the photographer of your life, watching others make decisions for you? Dreams force us into painful or comforting realizations.

Behind every reaction lies an entire emotional history that may have been the origin of the development of a feeling of strength, courage, weakness, fear, or anxiety.

Traumas that you had forgotten make you react unconsciously in the presence of the same feeling from which you had begun to react positively or to veer negatively into a mistaken behavior.

If you flee in a dream, tell yourself that there is a reason for the flight, for there is a problem.

It is not necessarily inside you, but outside, in your surroundings. Go and look for it.

Without the analysis of our dreams, we all live a little like hypnotized people. We let ourselves be tossed about by fate, we submit to it.

It is very important to develop reflection and to become more conscious through the analysis of one's dreams. Through this practice, you could discover character traits you would not have suspected, and you could realize and prevent things beyond events. It is very interesting. Often, one will realize that an anxiety has disappeared after a certain time.

To do this, one must learn to decode one's dreams, and above all, not to fear encountering the madness that dwells within us, each in a slightly different way, depending on the experiences lived and the predispositions.

There are two conditions for our self-improvement: the first is introspection through the analysis of our dreams, and the second is having the courage to face our shortcomings by learning to work on our dreams positively.

Next topic: The 5 phases of sleep

Good evening (good morning for you), dear Rolande,

I think you are right… I am rereading these paragraphs, as they particularly caught my attention:

Traumas that you had forgotten cause you to react unconsciously in the presence of the same feeling from which you had begun to react positively or to veer negatively into erroneous behavior.

How long after an event or trauma can one still dream about it?
Can we say that every dream has a meaning? Do we often find the meaning ourselves?

If you flee in a dream, tell yourself that there is a reason for the flight, for there is a problem.

Perhaps if we flee in dreams, we don't know how to deal with a problem in reality…

It is not necessarily inside you, but outside, in your surroundings. Go and look for it.

What if another person is involved? One who does not want to be understood or helped?
How can we then solve the problem? Without this person?

See you soon, ClaudiaC

Good evening Rolande,

I agree with you on several analyses, among others that during our sleep we travel to different spheres and other places.
However, I do not understand how one can set oneself free by dropping one’s mask and freeing oneself from one’s dreams and nightmares?
Ask yourself this question: How do you react in a dream when faced with a problem or a situation?
A few days ago, I had a very strange dream in which I saw myself flying through the air, encountering the devil, with my index finger acting as a flamethrower, burning everything in its path. At first, I was frightened, but then I took a certain pleasure in it, telling myself that I had powers that others did not. However, it terrified me to the utmost, to such a point that I cried out several times, and it was my son who came to shake me awake.
Do you fight the enemy or do you submit to it?
I reacted by shouting!
Are you the victor, or are you still circumventing the situation through cunning, dialogue, persuasion, or flight?
I did not react by fleeing; on the contrary, in my dream I took a certain pleasure in it, as I told you above (...)
I also often have dreams where I find myself facing well-known, deceased personalities, and sometimes I learn a few weeks later that they have passed away.
Or do you run in your dreams, or are you simply the photographer of your life, watching others make decisions for you? Dreams force us into painful or comforting realizations.
As far as I am concerned, I have always made my own decisions.
I completely agree with you that we are subject to fate, whether through our immediate or friendly social circles or the atmosphere they create.
As for my personality traits, I am a Scorpio.

I hope you can shed some light on this, as well as on the minds of several of us who do not always dare to recount these facts, for fear of being thought mad.

Thank you in advance
Kind regards

The magician.

Hello LeMagicien,
I am taking up part of your text:

I also often have dreams where I find myself facing well-known, deceased personalities, and sometimes I learn a few weeks later that they have passed away.

That reassures me! I’ve already dreamed about two well-known personalities twice… and one of them even twice… Do I dream about famous people… instead of dreaming about acquaintances?
Do we dream of famous personalities to dream about someone who is inaccessible to us? As if we couldn’t reach that person and we replace them with a “famous” face. I was recently saved by a famous personality in a dream…

Or do you run in your dreams, or are you simply the photographer of your life, watching others make decisions for you? Dreams force us into painful or comforting realizations.

Magician, have you ever had any comforting realizations after your dreams?

As far as I'm concerned, I have always made my own decisions.
I completely agree with you that we are subject to fate, whether through our immediate or friendly social circles or the atmosphere they create.

We suffer fate... but can't we become masters of our own destiny? Or do you believe that when we are born, our entire "path"/"life's journey" is already laid out?

I hope you can shed some light on this, as well as on the minds of several of us who are not always brave enough to speak about these facts, for fear of being thought mad.

For fear of being taken for crazy… sometimes I ask myself these questions. If I don’t become… a little crazy from my dreams… and I tell myself that these are my dreams… and that I do these “things” in my dreams and not in everyday life. No one sees me doing these things.

I had two other dreams this week after… the highway dream…

• one where I'm sliding down a snow-covered slope on my bottom, holding a breakfast tray in my hands to serve it in the chalet next door
• I fall from who knows where to be saved in the nick of time by… a well-known personality under a tarp/parachute canopy that ends with “…” (I leave it to your imagination)
  No, but? It’s driving me crazy, isn’t it?

Fortunately, I only scream when I dream about insects… and it’s my husband who reacts and… tells me, “No, but come on, there’s no insect in the bedroom”… No, but really?

Do you dream a lot, LeMagicien? Does your son often react?

Best regards, ClaudiaC

Hello Claudiac,

I don't think they are inaccessible personalities…
When you have dreams that are so bizarre and inexplicable, I can’t see what kind of insight one can draw from them, let alone any comforting ones.
To answer your question, I would say that our destiny is already set from our embryonic stage; the best proof of this is that we all have different fingerprints, even though we can look alike as two drops of water—take the case of twins, for example.
You make me laugh, with your dream of the snow-covered slope…!
It is that dreams make us traverse other spheres or other worlds, but are they representations of past or future lives, since everything seems so real that in some dreams we even see ourselves in discussion with characters speaking an unknown language?
I dream a lot, but I don't always remember them, and when I happen to scream, especially in dreams involving the devil, my surroundings react.

With warm regards and a happy Sunday to you.
The magician.

Hello again,
My snow-covered slope dream, yes, it is special... especially when going down it, I had to be careful not to knock over the fresh orange juice placed on it... that was my main concern...

In any case, the famous personalities I dreamed about are inaccessible to me…

I think the most important dreams for us are the ones we remember.

Happy Sunday to you too (first almost spring-like Sunday here with beautiful sunshine)

Hello Le Magicien and ClaudiaC,

I cringed a lot reading ClaudiaC’s dream. ClaudiaC, do you laugh easily in real life? Your dream is really funny, especially not wanting to spill the orange juice… I had a good laugh, lol, lol.

I also laughed when the magician pointed out with his index finger that he was burning everything in his path; I was—well, you have to laugh sometimes, and it’s perfectly fine to sometimes laugh at your dreams.

Claudiac’s dream displays symbols of popular expression, such as puns and jokes, whereas the Magician’s dream displays symbols of beliefs. Let me explain.

For ClaudiaC, this funny dream comes to inform her and, in a way, compels her to develop a sense of humor, but above all, it helps her easily understand a message. This type of dream gives brief answers and sometimes serves as a warning.

In the dream of the Magician (symbol of belief), he places himself in the path of the sublime, deciding what takes on a sacred dimension. He supports and monitors our growth. Usually, this type of dream urges us to draw from the depths of ourselves the source of the incommensurable, to pray, and to elevate ourselves astrally. One dreams of this especially during critical periods of life.

The fact that the magician dreams of a devil and burns everything in his path with his index finger is more of a symbolic dream related to myths… these are the ones that invite us to meet our inner hero, to become aware of this part of ourselves and to discover the capacity to love on perfect planes. This type of dream propels us into the battle of life to make us vibrate. This dream invites us to our inner discovery.

A few days ago, I had a very strange dream in which I saw myself flying through the air,

Flying in your dreams is about overcoming and controlling your conflicts, troubles, obsessions, and frustrations, and succeeding serenely in your endeavors, whether romantic or otherwise. To fly is also the ability to take off with your soul and your spirit. It is to discover a situation that liberates, to operate with the magic of the power of thought, motivation, and self-realization.

Flying through the air, encountering the devil

Meeting the devil and burning everything in your path may seem odious at first glance, but once the emotion has passed, the dream context forces you to reflect on a challenge to overcome… the devil is the guardian of the threshold who wants to prevent the individual from gaining access to the treasure in the inner castle, but the fact that you only meet the devil next time burns you on the finger lol…

I simply want to demonstrate here that the emotions we experience in our dreams in relation to a behavior demonstrate that we also experience emotions that, socially speaking, would be unacceptable if they were to burn everyone up. The question to be asked here is therefore more situated, and I am hypothesizing about your gifts, dear magician… perhaps something related to your gift of clairvoyance, a link with how you actualize this gift, etc. This dream may also be that of an initiatory struggle (you are the one who knows, the Magician). Seeing or meeting the devil in a dream warns that an initiation is propelling you into a struggle, which marks the dividing line of a passage to be crossed. A door opens onto the light, but one must pay the price to reach it. And by experience, this price is often solitude (but not solitude in the sense of interactions with other humans), the Magician.

This also heralds another stage of evolution, not without danger for a future initiate. It is at this point that the luminous golden points appear in visions or dreams, and the white light becomes the necessary weapon to combat martial astral dangers. This is also a period of major and extraordinarily important transition, such that this passage through which you burn the darkness will lead you to liberation and access to the treasure (your soul).

The more the magician surpasses his psyche, the closer he comes to perfection; the more he must struggle against the forces of darkness, the more he is exposed to danger, and the more the intention of purity must assert itself, for the so-called unconscious forces and energies are nothing but the liberation from these powers of darkness through the support of the forces of light. (shadow/light)

For each person has their destiny and their battles, according to their earthly programming and their bits. Each person has free will, free choice, and the attacking forces adapt to our degree of evolution, while the defending forces (your burning finger, spitting fire) arise and protect according to merits and our affirmations. Our vocation is to pass to the side of the light, and this is only an invitation and free choice.

What I find pleasant about The Magician is that you control your dreams, and this demonstrates the same meaning in your daily life and in dreams: the evolution of your soul… controlling one’s dreams is something everyone does, whether it is a conscious effort or a struggle that you wage in dreams… between shadow and light.

The scream comes to demonstrate a certain belief (destroying everything in your path, burning, devil, etc.) that confronts your values, immorality, as I mentioned earlier: in the dream, the Magician, morality does not exist... and sometimes, especially when one controls their dreams, which is still a work in progress, one must work on certain connotations of the devil, etc... perhaps to explore this belief deep within yourself... perhaps the devil is also pointing you toward an occult power... in short, it is a great period of initiation for you that is beginning.

and my index finger serving as a flamethrower,

The index finger represents the path; it indicates the direction to follow if it points at something or someone, or it can signify power in achievement, authority, command, and judgment qualities. By the way, its planet is Jupiter, which grants power and wealth.

At first I was frightened, and then I took a certain pleasure in it,

telling me that I had powers that others did not have, and yet it terrified me to the utmost, to such an extent that I cried out several times, and it was my son who came to shake me awake.

The question to ask here would perhaps be why this frightens me, what my definition of power is, and how I apply this power in my daily life.

Do you fight the enemy or do you submit to it?
I reacted by shouting! Okay... is this behavior familiar to you in everyday life? If so, how can you change this part of yourself? If not, it is a hidden, repressed part of yourself that you have previously worked on.

Are you the victor, or are you still circumventing the situation through cunning, dialogue, persuasion, or flight?
I didn’t react by running away; on the contrary, in my dream I was enjoying it, as I told you above, a certain pleasure (…) It’s okay, because remember that morality doesn’t exist in dreams… Thank God. That’s why I say the masks come off…

I also often have dreams where I find myself facing well-known, deceased personalities, and sometimes I learn a few weeks later that they have passed away.

Yes, that is your vision and your gift of clairvoyance.

As for my personality traits, I am a Scorpio.

lol but yes... occult science, my dear magician. By the way, occult means what is hidden, lol... The scorpion was born to fight.

Rolande

Hello Rolande and LeMagicien,
I had a good laugh too when I reread my dream. When I had this dream, I was feeling really good on top of that (I wasn't thinking about the cold of the snow at all... I must have been in my pajamas), I was only thinking about the orange juice I wanted to serve... To whom? I don't know... a mystery.
Yes, I like to have a good laugh, but my sense of humor is sometimes different from others’ (in everyday life).
When I am on the same wavelength as another person, just being in contact with them puts me in a good mood... one of those contagious good moods
My son has one of those contagious laughs… and I end up laughing too.
See you soon, ClaudiaC

Rolande,

I am resuming this sentence:

For ClaudiaC, this funny dream comes to inform her and, in a way, compels her to develop a sense of humor, but above all, it helps her easily understand a message. This type of dream gives brief answers and sometimes serves as a warning.

What can this type of dream warn you about? About what? About laughing more and rediscovering the joy of life? Is that it?

See you soon, ClaudiaC

P.S. The second dream was less comical for him…

Hello Rolande,

Thank you for all this very interesting information, which leads us down the path of reflection!

Have a good day and see you soon
The magician.

Hi ClaudiaC and the Magician

Yes, have a bit of fun, take your life less seriously, learn to laugh at your life, etc. … Humor is a good remedy sometimes, even in the most difficult stages.

It is a pleasure for me, the Magician.

Rolande

Hello everyone,

Reading Lemagicien’s dream, I remember having dreamed of the devil too; I was fighting him to save my son, but he was invisible. I knew it was him anyway—it was an evil force!!
I dreamed about it twice, and I remember that I was waltzing in every direction, in a sort of large empty room, but so was he, because I had an unimaginable strength???

The dreams in which I fly through the air, I used to have them for a very long time; I was flying by flapping my arms "like the wings of birds" and I would take off above the cities and forests!! These dreams were very pleasant and I never crashed... I always managed to dodge the obstacles... I think these dreams signify a desire for freedom, a need for balance..!!

One day I also dreamed that I was protecting two children (my son and my niece) from a witch who was flying on her broomstick and taking children to eat them ;D really weird >:(

My dreams are never very cheerful, but I take life on the positive side even though the fight is difficult…
When I was 17, I had a dream that left a profound mark on me.
I was in a large meadow, it was hot, and there was nothing on the horizon!! While walking with my heart full of joy, I saw in the distance what looked like rocks; as I got closer, there was an entrance (in the rock). It turned out to be ruins. I entered, and as I continued, I had to lie down because it was nothing but underground galleries!! So I crawled in the darkness for hours (in the dream), and then in the distance there was a light that I was approaching. When I reached the end of that gallery, it stopped, and I found myself above a void, with the vastness of the blue ocean in front of me and “balloons” of all colors bouncing on the water.. My dream ended there..
I have often wondered what it meant, and in hindsight, I have indeed been crawling through life, in the dark, facing many obstacles, health problems, and danger, but I think we are on earth to suffer and overcome our fears and anxieties. I believe it was already a premonitory dream!! ???

What do you think?

friendship

Eliana

Hello Rolande,

The hardest stages have been following one another and looking alike for about five years. If I knew there was a light at the end of the tunnel, I could laugh it off, but for now I’m in complete uncertainty. And I’m starting to get scared for my son’s future. That’s why all these dreams—I’m scared for my son…

ClaudiaC

Hi ClaudiaC,

You mention that you are worried about your son; in what way are you worried about him? I don't understand? :-[
Rolande

Hello Rolande,
I am afraid for my son's future for this reason: he is growing up in insecurity due to his father's professional situation; he lives in a tense and nervous family environment (persistent unemployment... unable to find a job that suits him).
and I don’t want him to suffer for it today or later.
It changes his personality traits... and he suffers from it. He's reaching an age where he understands things and where kids talk about it among themselves...

I would like him to grow up in a more or less healthy and stable environment.

:-[
ClaudiaC

Okay ClaudiaC, I understand now. :-X
