DREAM SYMBOLS   The value of dreams cannot be overstated. Perhaps you have a problem to be solved and that night you dream of a wonderful solution. At other times, the dreams are entangled masses of events or thoughts you had that day or in the recent past. Dreams such as premonitions that come true, can be very profound. Flying, being naked in public places and other such “non-reality” dreams many times are symbolic and sometimes provide clues to intentions you have set in your conscious state. Some dreams are just plain fun, they may reflect how you felt after having a day where everything flowed well for you. Some dreams are just plain strange and may reflect several issues your busy mind is working on. Symbols are “archetypes,” or representations of emotions, objects or events. Look more deeply at the archetypes in your dreams and what they mean to you, personally. For some, roses are symbolic of Mother Mary. Perhaps for you, when you smell roses, it reminds you of a loved one who grew beautiful roses and has now passed away. In your dreams, it is possible that this loved one is trying to contact you. When your mind is relaxed while sleeping, it is sometimes easier for those on the Other Side to make contact. Dreams can help to solve problems and lead you to a life of abundance. It is important to pay attention to recurring dreams. It is also good to decode the symbols in your dream time. Once you understand the symbology, it is much easier to understand your dreams.

At this moment in time, as we stand on the precipice of devolution or evolution, what does ‘pay attention’ mean to us? Our hearts seek wisdom and courage, and the justified faith that attention can bring. We came into this, so is attention the price of being born… an obligation?

At the moment I’m thinking that there sure is an obligation; an obligation an awful lot of humans seem to have forgotten. Or maybe, if I am to be kind and more accurate, attention has been and is completely conditioned and programmed out, i.e. “Here are your blinders… learn to regurgitate the opinions we give you, pay attention to the rules, and have a nice day!”

We’re subjects… trapped until we insist on seeing. When we are fitted with the blinders, what h...

When are we going to stop thinking in terms of religion, country, tribe, town, neighborhood, planet, business and I. When will we begin to think in terms of humanity and helping all people reach higher? Yes. It is natural to think about self, but when are we going to start thinking about and helping others? Feeding the hungry; giving care to the sick and dying; helping the young child to fight hopelessness; learning to use their abilities to help self and others.

Yes. We are all creatures of selfishness and selflessness. Again I ask: when will the day arrive when we think of our ne...

A technique for high throughput screening of substances that could cause DNA damage has been developed by scientists. The technology allows for testing of drugs and cosmetics that could pose a risk to human health, and assesses damage done to DNA, while reducing reliance on animal testing, researchers say.

As more hand held and portable devices on the market are being developed for nanoparticle-based DNA sensing, many are able to detect and analyze organis...

Brainwave entertainment is a way to train the brain to sync to a certain frequency, such as gamma, beta, deta, theta and alpha. Each frequency matches a certain state of consciousness. For example, deta is the brainwave dominant while in an unconscious state such as sleeping; while theta and alpha inspire relaxation and help get away from our beta state of consciousness that, at a higher frequency, promotes stress and anxiety. Listening to lower frequencies such as deta and theta is beneficial during meditation and could help reach a higher mental state.

What Are Gamma Brain Waves?

Gamma waves are present during the waking process and REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. They are the fastest documented brainwave frequency range. They o...

Like breathing, life inhales and exhales. Whatever you are involved in, you are involved in life. If you are in a cave, you are involved in life. If you are in a crowded restaurant on top of the Empire State Building, you are involved in life. Wherever you are, whoever you may think you are, you are involved in life.
 
Life is the chair you sit on. It is the road you walk on. Life is the sky you look up at. You are not only the Light of the World, you are also the Life of the World.
 
We can say that you are a petal of each flower. Rose or dandelion, it doesn’t matter.
 
If We say that life is a bicycle, you pedal it. If life is a car, you drive it. If life is an airplane, you fly it. You are the sun in the morning, and the moon at night. You are the stars when seen or unseen. You are the Universe in all its glory.
 
You are Everything to Me. You are My reason for Creation. You and Creation go together. You are no more separated from Life than you and I are separated. Oneness is. There is richer meaning to Oneness than you may have considered. Oneness is far more than a cozy expression. It is the Ultimate Expression.
 

The morning is an important time of day. Think of it as the foundation for the entire rest of your day. You’re given the choice of grabbing a poptart and some coffee in a styrofoam to-go cup, or you can set yourself up for success with these 7 awesome healthy tips.

1. When you wake up, drink a glass of water. No need to slam it. Each morning when I wake, I fill up a 24 ounce jar of water and drink it within the first 30 minutes of waking up. Doing this helps start up your digestive system and get the juices flowing.
2. Forget your phone and email for the first hour you’re up. This is one I should apply to my life more often. I never have anything to look at on my phone or in my email until about 10am anyway. Those days that I don’t go staring at my electronics first thing, I’m more clear-headed.
3. Step outside. Take a deep breath. Fill your...
