Rebecca, from Minnesota, USA, is my guest exploring her dream about a raven-haired crane dancer, a singer, and a somersault artiste.

This arresting dream is visually and aurally striking, mystical and mysterious. It begins at a camp where Rebecca invites three women to share their talents. The first one sings an “achingly beautiful” song, which the other two women interrupt when they arrive to reveal their talents.

Listen as Rebecca and I explore the details of her dream to discover how it relates to her life, the invaluable insights it offers, and the dream alchemy we create.

Betty, my guest from Melbourne, Australia, wept buckets in her dream over her missing car. It wasn’t where she had parked it!

A young girl riding a bike told her the car had been stolen, yet it turned out to be parked in the next street. Before long, Betty was in the driving seat, reversing her car, then somehow hit her head so hard that she woke up with the pain, a pain she could still feel for a few seconds before it faded.

Listen as Betty and I explore her dream – there was more to the story – and put the puzzle pieces together to relate it to her life and discover insights that help her to make the best decisions about a key situation she is currently facing.

The post Ep 259 The Dream Show: Live Dream Interpretation. Betty dreamed her car was stolen appeared first on Dream interpretation and dream alchemy with Jane Teresa Anderson.

I talk about the ‘art and science’ of interpreting dreams: there are methods, techniques, and approaches to follow, but is there more to this work than meets the eye?

Part of me sees dream interpretation as straightforward and methodical, while another part of me is constantly astonished by the seemingly magical way in which a dream interpretation falls into place when you reach into the work with your bare hands, trusting the alchemy of the process.

In this episode we dip into the magical and make our way toward the practical, before exploring the types of services professional dream workers offer.

Yes, this is one of our ‘talkie’ episodes, packed with dream interpretation tips and inspiration for working with dreams.

Kendra, from Coles Bay, Tasmania, Australia, is my guest asking about her dream where her friend died then came back to life.

Kendra was visiting her dying friend – who is fit and healthy in waking life – in hospital. Another friend fled, “I can’t stay for this!” she said.

After the friend died, her body was placed in a big ice bucket, but her hands and some other body parts were still moving. At one point the nurses stand the dead body up on her feet, and there is a little more movement, a spot of menstrual blood smeared across her stomach.

There is more to this dream, but eventually the friend comes fully back to life.

What does the dream mean, how does it relate to Kendra’s life, and how can this dream help her?

Listen as Kendra and I explore her dream together. Do please share.

We pause our guest-format to celebrate 13 years of podcasting The Dream Show and to explore the immense treasures and opportunities offered by our dreams.

This episode brings you tips on how to incubate a dream about a specific topic, and shares some of my earlier research on the surprising things that happened when I asked people to incubate a dream about a certain object. A clue? The objects started appearing in waking life!

This episode also brings you dream interpretation tips and inspiration wrapped in stories: there’s one about a yoga class, one about a steep climb down into into a fossil-blessed cove, and one about an old-fashioned paper map. Intrigued?

Thank you for listening to yet another episode of The Dream Show, and for sharing this huge resource with your friends. Some of you, I know, have ploughed through listening to all the previous 255 episodes!

Thank you also to those of you who have been guests on our podcasts throughout these thirteen years, bringing dreams for us to explore and interpret. Your contributions are invaluable and deeply appreciated.

This sounds like a wrap, but it’s not. The Dream Show now enters its 14th year!

Listen, and do please share.

Juliana, from Atlanta, Georgia, is my guest asking about her dream of encountering a knotty problem when changing a baby’s diaper.

This very visceral dream begins with a diaper change and the challenge of cleaning an abundance of yellow poo from the baby’s crevices. The wet wipes she was using were moist but tough, and she worried that she was irritating the baby’s genitalia.

The baby’s gender was ambiguous, partly boy, partly girl.

As you’ll hear, Juliana’s aunt has some caregiving advice that involves tying lots of knots into something that emerged from the baby’s digestive system: was it the baby’s intestines, or an umbilical cord, or something else?

And is the aunt’s caregiving advice ultimately healing or harmful?

Listen as Juliana and I explore her dream to discover what it means, how it relates to her waking life, and how the insights we uncover can help her with her situation.

Meredith, from Ventura County, California, is my guest asking about her dream set in a clothing store.

She’s there to choose new clothes for someone and asks the store attendant to try on various options so she can see how they look. The white-blonde attendant is only partly engaged in the process, making Meredith feel anxious and deferential as she tries to make good choices.

The attendant models three layers of tops, and then agrees to trying Meredith’s idea of a dark blue shirt but there isn’t one available.

“Why am I buying her all these tops?”, Meredith wonders, exasperated, before seeking refuge in a private changing room.

Listen as Meredith and I explore her dream to uncover the deeper goings-on in her life, discovering insight and fresh, helpful perspective on her waking life situation.

Tas, from Melbourne, Australia, is my guest asking about her dream of discovering wildlife trapped in her house.

Tas is about to move interstate, back into her old house in Sydney, which she has rented out for many years while travelling with her career.

In her dream, she and her sister arrive at the Sydney house ahead of her furniture. When she opens the door, she is shocked when colourful rosellas fly out and up into the air. As they venture inside, they are scared to encounter insects, spiders, and snakes.

There’s more to this unexpected wildlife sanctuary discovery, as you’ll hear when Tas shares her dream and we explore it to find out what it means, how it relates to her life, and what wonderful insights she can take forward.

MaryBeth, from Portland, Oregon, US, is my guest asking about her dream where everyone at a party is naked.

MaryBeth dreamed she was at work, and when she opened the storage cupboard door it led to another wing, a mirror image of her current workplace but with larger, better rooms and more equipment. She was particularly amazed by the sand tray room where she wanted to stay, but she and her husband had agreed to go on a camping trip, so she had to leave.

I won’t spoil the story, which you’ll enjoy as you listen, but toward the end of her dream MaryBeth is encouraged to remove her T-shirt before joining a party where everyone is naked. Does she, or doesn’t she? What happens next?

What does MaryBeth’s dream mean, how does it relate to her life, and what meaningful and practical insight can she draw?

Listen as we explore MaryBeth’s dream!

Lucía from Cuernavaca, Mexico, is my guest asking about her dream of a disgusting coughed-up black spider.

She dreamed she was at a monastery where a monk was questioning her desire to be the bellringer for the meditations. She wanted to sit beside the huge singing bowl and embody its beautiful vibrations.

Later in the dream she prepares to interview a woman for a broadcast. She’s nervous, but as she writes down her questions, they flow.

The woman she is interviewing, however, expresses her disappointment about an activist document that Lucía wrote a few years ago. After several false starts and stumbles, the interview begins, but then a woman to her left coughs up a black spider!

What does her dream mean, how does it relate to her life, and what key insights can she draw?

Listen as Lucía and I explore her dream to find out!
