Dream Interpretation Quote of the day

Dreaming permits each and every one of us to be quietly and safely insane every night of our lives.

--William Dement

Dream Guidance Part 2

Our dreams disturb us because they refuse to pander to our fondest notions of ourselves. The closer one looks, the more they seem to insist upon a challenging proposition: You must live truthfully. Right now. And always. Few forces in life present, with an equal sense of inevitability, the bare- knuckle facts of who we are, and the demands of what we might become.
- Marc Ian Barasch, Healing Dreams

A major source of the 'kindly light' is one's dreams, and a strong incentive to study one's dreams is to be in distress, in the grip of a painful problem. Thus the guiding light manifests in the wilderness.
53- Edward F. Edinger

Dream Guidance Part 1

Don't be pushed by your problems. Be led by your dreams.
- Anonymous

As then, while all men are guided by their own minds, there are some few who are deemed worthy of evident Divine communication; so, while the imagination of sleep naturally occurs in a like and equivalent manner for all, some, not all, share by means of their dreams in some more Divine manifestation.
- Gregory of Nyssa

Now Allah has created the dream not only as a means of guidance and instruction, I refer to the dream, but he has made it a window on the Unseen.
- Words of the Prophet Mohammed, Arabia, 7th century A.D.

... and that in a dream certain persons may have certain things pointed out to them to do, is an event of frequent occurrence to many individuals, - the impression on the mind being produced either by an angel or by some other thing. Where, then, is the absurdity in believing that He who has once become incarnate, should be led also by human guidance to keep out of the way of dangers?
- Origen
