“My cousin is hugging me. It is a good feeling. My mother does not get along with her mother, so I am like a bridge between families.
“My (personal/political) tool is loving people.”

A dirty, grimy figure — the Grim Reaper — is standing by my bed. Mockingly, he makes sexual movements and attempts to attack me. He wants to steal my cell phone. I refuse to let him — it’s my primary means of communication. I try to scream, but can’t, an often reported condition in dreams. I need my cell phone. In the dark, I force myself to scream out loud. I can do it, I can find my voice. Awaking, I hear myself scream.
Dreams can guide us toward and on our true path. Their symbols, personal and universal, are jewels bearing precious gifts. Once important in the mystical and traditional aspects of religion and culture, we can reclaim dreaming as a spiritual practice. SACRED DREAMING expands our spiritual awareness and connects us to a vast storehouse of wisdom.
