Dead dream material, time glitches, and snakes as thought forms
What the ego-animal eats affects its appearance
I created an Instagram account for my daily dream stream.
Part of the process is this: I wake up after each dream — multiple times a night — to write them down in my phone notes. I call these “loud nights” because the stream of consciousness never stops. Sometimes I wake up in a trance-like state and start automatic writing or what feels like “sleep typing.”
Once a month I have a ritual of revisiting past dreams. I notice patterns and themes. Some dreams are precognitive, some are personal, and others are higher dimensional — like multi-sided dice that you can turn over and over again to find new meaning.
Dreams never go stale or stagnant. The imagery and symbols in dreams are teeming with energy. It is cosmic energy and it is your energy. If an old dream keeps resurfacing in your waking consciousness that means it is trying to communicate. This applies to daydreams and fantasies too.
Some of us say we don’t dream. That’s not true. We dream while we’re awake too. A song lyric that pops into your head can be a dream. A memory or nostalgia can be a dream. A coincidence you can’t seem to shake off is a dream.
Here is a dream from when I was fourteen. I revisit the dream whenever I feel disconnected from my spirit or if I feel too human.
BEHIND THE VEIL
🪐 Many Worlds, Many Visions
Something new I have been seeing and sensing between altered states: I’ve been running to the edges and borders of dreams. I see myself in the distance in other dimensions. I see myself learning and having different dreams than the one my POV is in, and I point to myself from far away and I ask why can’t I be over there dreaming that dream? Then I am filled with an awareness of all the multiple me(s) in their respective dreams and realities and I know I can’t hold it all in my one body. Too much consciousness and I would become unhinged.
ASTRAL ABSTRACTS
⏳ What to do if you’re stuck in a time loop:
This is a strange dream. It feels more like a glitch than a vision. It is a duplicated moment and I feel the weight of time and the more I notice it the deeper I sink into it. The dream architects tell me to just zone out and do the loop. They assure me this is a common occurrence and that it will be over soon.
COSMIC BODY LESSON
📏 The scale of your spirit
We have multiple bodies or vehicles of consciousness. We exist outside the walls of our skin. This was a thought exercise — find your body within the shape of your fingernail. In the dream state I was able to shrink down to size and sense the “rest of me.” I woke up and I knew my physicality is the smallest part of me.
ALTERNATE FUTURES
👻 Spirit board subscriptions
I drop in on a parallel future. It wasn’t my world or my reality — but the vision was still meant for me. A woman pulls out a Ouija board from her toolbox. It’s digital and requires a billing plan to activate. Communicating with the spirit realm is a skill and a gift and in this dream world it was monetized. I wake up and pray to my Ancestors — because in this world it’s still free.
SOUL QUESTION
🐻 What the ego-animal eats
Similar to the legend of whichever wolf you feed wins — if you were forced to carry around your ego for all the world to see and if the appearance of your ego-animal changed depending on what emotions and thoughts you fed it — what would you feed it?
DREAM SERIES
💭 Three thought experiments
#1 — I’ve said this before: the serpent is the most complicated of spirit animals. Its symbolism shapeshifts. Here the Goddess shows me snakes as thoughts and teaches me how to wrangle them:
#2 — The prison bars that keep you locked in are imaginary. Shift your perspective.
#3 — Hand-me-down mental constructs depicted as furniture. I spend a dream rearranging the rooms in my mind — rewiring my brain.
DREAM STREAM CONT.
The Hall of Mirrors — a sacred place that exists on a different plane.
Sometimes I am my ego, sometimes I am my brain or my heart. In this dream I was my subconscious.
Love does not want statues. Grief does not want to harden you like a rock. All emotion is energy and all energy wants is to move you and through you.
A lesson in loving someone: He wants to lift himself — and his spirits — out of its depths. I want to help by being in the boat with him — but I learn that my emotional weight would only hold him down. I have to stand on the dock and support from a distance.
🔮 FUTURE PLANS
I’m working on scheduling a weekly drop-in dream share via Zoom and creating a form for readers to submit dreams. Also, one-on-one dream guidance in the near future. If any of these things interest you — or if you have other ideas — just reply to this email.
