Dreams are very much about healing at all levels, spiritual, emotional and even physical, if we would only be aware of them and attend to their efforts. If you are going through a rough transition that is taking a toll emotionally, dreams may come to let you know you are cared for and to let you know you are not yourself. Here is an example:
Dream: I am in a clinic and see my usual buoyant, optimistic, smiling self in a mirror. Then I let myself feel my real feelings. I am feeling unusually grim and pessimistic.A doctor comes up to me and uses a stethoscope to examine my heart. I ask why he’s doing this. He tells me I am not in my usual emotional state and he just wants to check me out. I know he is right and intuitively feel in the dream he is mainly concerned about my emotional heart, not necessarily the physical one. Then another doctor does the same, focusing more on the left side.
When I woke up I was touched that some dream physicians were taking care of me and my emotional situation. It made me focus more on what I was feeling at the moment and not on the breezy, upbeat persona I was reflecting to the world. I needed to look at the left side (the intuitive side) of my emotional heart.
Since I just finished teaching a class this past semester, I have time to rest and spend a little more time with myself and getting in touch with those feelings that are dragging me down. Maybe the dream doctors were tell me I needed to manifest their thoughtfulness and concern for myself.
