Thanks for the post Teo,
I have tried it couple of times, but wasn't very good.
quote:I have heard that incense helps a lot in inducing lucid dream. Opium is a popular incense to burn for any spell involving dreaming or sleep in any way, including spells meant to induce lucid dreaming or prophetic dreams. It’s also a good incense to burn to dream and sleep associative deities such as Morpheus.
OK.. the most important thing with incense, is don't burn anything! Personally, I think opium may have been my favorite flavor / scent too!
Why do you want to "sleep associative deities such as Moropheus?" I want to sleep associative deities such as Saint Cecilia (patron saint of musicians), Beethoven, Mozart, Chopin, for that matter Martin Luther King, and the good fairy!
You mention a few things that people have said about dreaming in this hour means this, this hour that, well as a musician who sometimes has done my best work at times I won't even mention, I will say from my experience the best dreams come any time they like.
What is important is how you analyze a dream. Have you ever started describing a dream to someone, and by the time you say what you think about the dream, hearing yourself, you change what you get from the meaning of the dream? This happens so much to me, that even recalling dreams is in the realm of needing a system to keep the good lessons, kapitsch?
I have a few books about dream analysis, there still is no definitive answer. My favorite approach is this: supposedly you can practice your art in your dreams, and fully learn and practice! I talked to Franz Liszt the composer in one great dream.
This guys book that I was mentioning so many years ago, was also talking about planting seeds for what you want to happen in your dreams, whether or not you are lucid. That's another entire approach. I like that one too! I've put myself to sleep with positive affirmations and such.
As far as prophecies.. I used to have a lot like that. They were amazing because some things I have to wonder, how did I know that?
I think the relationship with your dreams is a lot like the relationship you have with yourself. Do you lose your keys a lot? Do you forget names? Do you decide one thing now, then have a different position later? There is a thing that many call "The Great Work" which is self-mastery, or maybe just self-awareness for some people.
In a sense dreams can confuse you into the right direction. They can also lead you astray. How well you learn lessons from your dreams I think has a lot to do with how well you listen to yourself, are you honest with yourself, and are you genuine in wanting to improve your self.
Some times in life dreams are important, other times in the way. Hopefully they are beneficial to you in just the right way, I dream of everyone having much more of what they want in life. May the best of dreams come true just right! Amen.
Thanks for eliciting such wonderful discussions WayneKatz! Don't make any marks with the incense though.
