Dream Architecture (May 28)

Dreamwork is an art as well as a science.  In this class we will learn to approach dreams in the same way we do a work of literature, film or painting; appreciating its mechanics as well as its poetry.   We will learn how to recognize and isolate dream elements and bridge their symbolic wisdom back to waking life.

Light in the Dark (June 4th)

Learning to actively dream involves finding balance between the light and dark sides of our nature.  In this class we will pay special attention to the Shadow and nightmares, learning how to read the warning signs of imbalanced attitudes.  We will explore the redeeming medicine of dark dreams, and the importance of finding the light contained within them.

Inner Marriage (June 11th)

As evidenced in our dreams, each of us contains both masculine and feminine qualities within.  It is only our gender conditioning that engrains a bias towards one or the other.  What results, is an impoverishment of our opposite-gender qualities.  In this class, we will learn how to make room for both through dreamwork, so that we can recover our wholeness as individuals, as well as for the sake of our planet.

Dream Yourself Awake (June 18th)

Dreaming is a kind of archaeological process, where we enter the soul’s world to unearth the forgotten or undiscovered parts of our selves.  As we begin to do away with unconscious, habitual behaviour, we awaken to a new way of being in the world.  In this class we will learn techniques for engaging our co-creative abilities in both dreaming and waking realities.
