WWTN #26 - What Are Your Dreams?

One of my favorite things to do when a word comes up that seems rather significant within the realm of a healing session, or a new idea or project, is to type that word in to dictionary.com -- not because I want to find out the definition of the word, but because I want to find out the etymology of it.

The root, the original meaning of the original form of the word. What its birthplace says about its history and usage.

During a healing session a few months back a client and I were discussing dreams. Not the psychologically healing experiences one has while sleeping, but dreams in the sense that many people say: Oh well, so-and-so is what I do for a living. But my DREAM is.....

And fill in the blank there. My DREAM is: to own a fishing boat. To make jewelry for a living. To live on the ocean. To work with horses every day. And so on.

I have noted that many people feel whatever they do day-to-day is Reality. And then, the Dream is a non-achievable fantasy wish.

So I plugged the word "dream" in to dictionary.com. When I saw the what the word originally meant, I practically fell over. Check it out:

Origin: 1200–50; ME dreem, OE drēam joy, mirth, gladness.

Joy, Mirth, Gladness!

So what is it that keeps us from our dreams? They are not surreal fantasies. Our dreams are that which brings us our joy, mirth and gladness! Our dreams are our Prosperity!!

I am following mine. So far so good. Joyous!

Will you begin to follow your dreams today? Keep me posted! Let's start the Joyous Dream Brigade, together!

WWTN #25 - Writing from the Roots

Greetings,

It has been quite some time since I have written one of my e-newsletters.

I have been a busy bee, as you know from receiving notices of specials and events, but whenever I would sit down to write one of these, something would always distract me, or make me second guess my "topic".

Despite my hibernation keeping in line with winter, I have been in quite a "go, go, go" mode energetically; and my body is finally catching up, along with Turtle, telling me to "slow--slow--slow."

And, so, I go: Ahhhh.

Here I am.

And there you are.

How have you been?

How are you now?

2009 is such a beautiful year.

I am so happy to be here.

We have been so transformational.

Now the change has finally happened.

I feel it.

I love it.

I write it:


Butterfly is rainbow, full, sorceress, innocent, pure and all powerful.

Giant Bird is working on our behalf, carrying the message of love between dimensions.

Water Cave is strong and solid. Standing on the water gives us power. The Sky our greatest teacher.

Tell us Sky, what to know for now.

Sky says:

"Whispers in images like fog of double-helix, rain wears a coat of air to carry itself lightly and light wears the shimmer of pink energy to show itself love...

a healing for you

a healing for you

a healing for you"

Earth pulsates with happiness at meeting again our faces, our spines; curly-cue-ing up through the portals to bring its gifts of hot stone and total release.

The ants like it, (you'll love it) they say

I listen with my head-bed on ground and the pebble whistles crooningly

"you are the sunshine"


...

And there you have it!

Peace and Love, Jen
