Personal Dreams

The most intimate of dreams, naturally, involves yourself. These dreams are usually the most personal and deal with issues that are close to your heart, so to speak. They are made of the stuff of what propels you, of what makes you the person that you are, of what you like and dislike, of the things that make you glad and sad, of the things that make you strong and weak, and of those things that you fear.

These very personal dreams will usually, but not always, take place in dream rooms that are very familiar to you, places that you cherish or greatly fear. They play out in these kind of places because those places are your places of power. Power places are dream locations, or even physical locations, where your life-force is the most strong. These places are the areas that nurture, protect, and transform you. Quite often they are of childhood rooms or homes and of people that may be long gone and a part of your early years.

When you have such a dream, it is a message to your present self that an issue of great importance to you and your growth is underway. It is important to heed the message in this kind of dream, as this will enable you to meet your destiny, instead of shying away from it, as many of you do when confronted with deep personal issues. Remember! The key to knowing when you are having such a dream is that the dream place, or room, will be of very familiar and deeply personal environments; that is the signal to watch for.

Once you identify this kind of dream, you will have to pull the various aspects of that dream apart to figure out what the message is. Your personal dreams dealing with yourself are usually filled with objects and images, and are not so much filled with other people, though they can. The objects themselves often represent the very issue that you are dealing with. For example, let's say that you are having a dream, in a dream room, in the house where you were born. In this room, you see a baseball. The baseball, here, could symbolize your need to play or have fun. The ball could be a reminder to have fun, perhaps, treating whatever it is that you are going through like a game, instead of as a chore.

Naturally, much of how you decode the dream will hinge on what dream plane that dream takes place on, for you can have several similar dream rooms existing on each of the dream planes. For example, a dream room of your first apartment can both exist on the Etheric and the Astral Plane. Here these rooms may appear similar but, in fact, they are two separate dream locations, and the way that you will interpret information from each room will alter the meaning of the dream. We're going to be going into dream interpretation in great detail in several chapters dedicated to just that topic, later on in our book. Here we just want you to understand that each kind of dream that you have will have different ways of being decoded, depending on where that dream takes place, even if the dream locations seem similar.
