Dream Gates

I have been privileged to lead Active Dreaming workshops in Lithuania three times. Each visit has been a grand adventure, a deepening encounter with the spirits of the land, and a lesson in how we can use the arts of conscious and group dreaming in the cause of cultural soul retrieval. When I first came…

I come not to bury blocks, but to praise them. I am talking about the speed bumps we encounter on the roads of life. Sometimes they look like solid brick walls, or mountains set in our way. Sometimes we feel we have come to a door that won’t open however hard we pound, or however…

When we open the dream door for others, it can lead to a true communion of spirits. To play dream guide for another person, we need to know how to create a safe space where someone new to dream sharing  can be helped to tell a dream, enter into a simple and focused discussion of…

One of the many forms of healing that becomes available to us through dreams is the healing of our relations with our ancestors. Sometimes this reaches far back through the bloodlines. Let me share the story of Aine, a woman of Irish Catholic descent living in my native Australia. Going through old documents relating to…

This is a rather widespread experience in sleep dreams. I’ve…

We’ll play the Lightning Dreamwork game and explore the many ways in which we can use the arts of Active Dreaming to live more consciously and…

We have precious few clues to just what was going on in the disturbed mind of the young man who shot U.S. Rep. Gabrelle Giffords and killed several others in a horrific crime in Tucson on Sunday. While we pray for Congresswoman Giffords’ recovery, I want to respond to news reports that the killer boasted…

I’m fourteen years old and I’ve never been kissed. In the middle of the night, I feel a presence in my room. It’s a woman, and she’s coming towards me. She’s little more than a dark cloud to begin with, but when she reaches my bed she is fully defined. She is a hideous, black-skinned…
