What IS Active Dreaming?
What IS Active Dreaming? While it might sound like it, Active Dreaming is NOT the same as Lucid Dreaming. Although Lucid Dreaming can be a PART of Active dreaming, Active Dreaming is SO MUCH MORE!
Active Dreaming was created by Robert Moss as a WHOLISTIC way of approaching LIFE more Consciously! Active Dreaming recognizes that we are always experiencing meaningful things while AWAKE and also while DREAMING.
To practice Active Dreaming is to explore ALL levels of consciousness, from your waking, egoic self to your subconscious, dreaming self and all levels of consciousness in between! Active Dreaming reminds us that we not only dream while we are asleep, but while we are AWAKE too!
And it does this by focusing on 3 main Pillars:
The 1st Pillar of Active Dreaming is:
1: Learning to work with dreams of the night
Active dreamers learn to gain incredible insight, guidance and clarity by practicing dreamwork regularly. Learning to keep a dream journal, how to break a dream drought, share and interpret you own dreams and more are all aspects of this pillar that I go over in depth on THIS channel.
The 2nd Pillar of Active Dreaming is”
2: Practicing Shamanic Lucid Dreaming/Shamanic Journeying
Many Shamans believe we are all connected via a Web of Life that extends beyond space and time (and Quantum Physics tends to agree). And when we use Shamanic Journey techniques we can consciously interact with this world-behind-the -world, beyond space and time, to bring about REAL healing and positive change in our lives. This is usually accomplished with guided or self-guided journey prompts or intentions, paired with rhythmic drumming to help you enter a liminal state similar to hypnogogia or a light lucid dream.
The 3rd pillar of Active Dreaming is:
3: Learning to Navigate Waking Life by Following Signs and Synchronicities
We call this Kairomancy and it’s all about staying connected to the Universe and learning how to recognize when it’s speaking directly to you. There are many games we can play with the Universe and I go over many of them on this channel as well.
To sum this all up – Active Dreaming is about being ACTIVE with your dreams – of the night and also the dreams you have while wide awake. So these three pillars together: Working with night dreams, Shamanic Journeying and following daily signs and synchronicities – are what make up Active Dreaming.
