Creative Dynamics Center and peripheral issues
10Feb2007 07:38 AM Dreams
Last
night I had a dream that appears to be a synthesis of
yesterday's (and last week's for that matter)
experience, including the blog post from yesterday
about Joyeux Noël & The Secret on Oprah. I dreamt
that I was spiralling around (ah, just realized the
geometric symbolism 
a hillside in Georgetown,
California where I built a geodesic dome
in
1978. In the dream, I walked through the wooded
area (where there are also pines in "real life")
past a number of individual, separate buildings
and dwellings. Then I arrived at the top of the
hill (where in "real life" our Creative Dynamics
metaphysical study group, headed by the
late
Floyd Edwards, author of
Symbolism of the Great Seal of the
United States, had intended to
build a common building for study, healing,
spiritual exploration, etc. but never
materialized). In the dream, I saw a large
building, apparently made by interconnecting
previously separate smaller buildings – I like
that symbolism! I walked to the edge of a small
cliff (we called the 40 acres in Georgetown the
"Far Cliffs" after a reference in the book
Jonathan Livingston
Seagull) and looked down
to where my dome home was in "real life", but now
(in the "dream") there was a building devoted to
spiritual history or something like that, near a
small river flowing past. The feeling of the dream
was that there was to be a new wave of involvement
as this facility (double meaning) was
re-discovered (like "The Secret") and integrated
(like Joyeux Noël). The other
powerful metaphor for me was that the center
(literally and figuratively in the center or heart
of the acreage) was what was overgrown with weeds
by decades of neglect, but now (I moved a small
section of already down barbed wire fence out of
the way so no one would be harmed by it) was
poised to enjoy a renaissance.
