Dreaming
I am taking off in a "boat" from Catalina Island (I say Catalina but it looks more like Coronado), Bodhi is with me (although maybe it isn't Bodhi just a child the same age). The boat consists of a small upper platform on which sits a throne-like wooden chair. Instead of a sail there is a mosquito netting canopy suspended from above and cascading over the sides of the chair. This Bodhi/child runs around the perimeter of the chair on the 1 foot buffer before the waves. I know this boat is a bit like an iceberg, much larger at its base but hollow inside. It is night and we are sailing through midnight waters and starry skies. The throne is also a self-digesting toilet which I utilize by squatting. As soon as this is finished it returns to a throne with pillows. I pull the child close to me and sleep beneath the netting and stars. When I awake I find that I have drifted close to shore (Oceanside, but maybe what it looked like 200+ years ago). My boat is now a sea kayak and I paddle to shore. I love California as I do and feel a deep longing and belonging.

Dream 2
My mom has created a potion, using yeast as a binder and distilling the essence of a single beautiful pink rose. These potions are for love, kindness, and forgiveness. Owen and I dipped paper and string in the solution and strung them over head filling everyone with love, kindness and forgiveness as they passed beneath.

Dreaming Several disjointed images 1 I am in a house, the rooms wind and twist. I am trying to reach Shane. I have to pass through a number of rooms. I walk through one room which is obviously haunted by a woman. I feel this seep of darkness and negativity. I begin chanting prayers, as protection against the feelings rising within. I find Shane. I tell him of the haunted room. He is interested but unafraid. I am afraid and chant my prayers of protection louder and more frenetically. Shane merely walks into the room. 2 I am working at a clothing store similar to the one I worked at in SF. My boss is there and I am late. There is a woman selling jewelry outside. Beautiful handmade jewelry, but I don't have the money to purchase it at present. There is a man dining in a boat down by the water. He is wealthy. I speak to him. He says it costs a fortune to dine with this view, but a little less if you dine with your back to it. I can see the view of the sea for fr...

I have been having lots of dreams with disconnected imagery In this one Shane/not Shane was cheating on me.  It had become so ordinary that I didn't notice.  My house was full of extra children making messes, leaving food and bedding and crumbs everywhere, all of them boys.  The house was dark and under cared for.  There were puppies in the house too, lots of tiny puppies and I remember thinking, "Why didn't Shane have this dog neutered? My mom will think it is totally irresponsible to bring so many unwanted dogs into the world".  Next I am standing in a room/not room, my boys are nearby playing.  I am taking off the head of this human size knitted stuffed doll.  It is beautiful and knitted out of undyed wools of various colors.  I am pulling out the strings that sewed the head to the body, suddenly I realize that I am not okay with my life.  I turn to Shane/not-Shane who looks trim and gorgeous in tight geometric patterned pants and a butt...

Dreaming I am in a traveling troupe of some sort.  There are hundreds of beautiful young people (I too am much younger and more buxom and gorgeous than this body recalls).  We are all gathering to prepare for our performances.  It seems that we are also superheroes of some sort when we travel.  We gather in a large auditorium.  I shirk this handsome, needy young man who has literally been following me two inches or less from the back.  I holler enthusiastically to the crowd and skip to my seat in the front, directly before a mirror.  The group begins singing.  This is my second year with the troupe but I don't know the songs.  I say to myself I don't learn this way (by ear) I need to see the song.  The song leader hears me and hands me a typed song sheet.  The song sounds like an east Indian chant but it goes "Ta, ra, re, ditty ditty, Ta ra ram ditty ditty ", etc.  I sing, chant and wake up. The interesting part of this drea...
