Is harmony
one note that everybody is singing? Or is it a whole lot of notes that are in
vibrational harmony with each other? When you give your attention to anything,
the Universe responds to it. When two of you are giving your attention to it,
and there is no contradiction, it is a powerful vortex. That's why a gathering
such as this can achieve a great deal as you come together in greater and
greater harmony and take thought beyond that which it has been before. --- Abraham

Daily Feng Shui Tip from

Today
is 'World Population Day' and here's a few Feng Shui fertility tips if you and
yours are trying to add to the population. This philosophy says that an image,
picture or painting of a pomegranate in your bedroom will increase your odds at
getting pregnant. Feng Shui considers this fruit and its many seeds to be a
strong symbol of fertility. This cure says putting five pomegranates on your
bed every morning will help increase world population in a speedy manner. One
fruit should be placed at each of the four corners and one should be positioned
in the center of the mattress. Remove and keep the pomegranates close by when
retiring at night. Do this for nine, 27 or 49 consecutive days to enhance
fertility. A symbol of a dragon, (especially during this current Chinese New
Year) positioned on the man's side of the bed is also believed to increase the
odds of becoming parents, as will placing a painting or image of children in
the bedroom. Or you could just use an ancient image that is believed to
activate ancestor energies and bring a new addition to your family. Download

pregnant.

Relatives
Images also include Father, Mother, Sibling
Relatives are powerful features of both the waking and dreaming
worlds. As a consequence, interpreting dreams of relatives is a complex task.
There are hundreds of different possible interpretations that originate within
the world of the dreamer as well as from classical psychology.
The reason dreams of family are so prevalent is that everyone
has a desire to know what normal is, and then act that way in the world.
Countless times, clients will come to therapy complaining, I just want a normal
family, or I just want a normal marriage. The definition of this idea comes
from our relatives and how well they fit into or detract from our idea of
normalcy.
Dreams of family may affirm or undermine normal feelings about
ourselves. Extended family relations are very significant in developing the
family lore and ritual. As you mature and reflect critically on normalcy in
your understanding of it, these rituals either affirm or work against the norms
of your perspective. Who does what, why and when is often determined by
influences in the extended family. The result is that we construct a family
story that defines who we are in our family and what our family means in the
world around us.
Relative dreams of this type lend themselves to archetypal
interpretations that offer insight into how the dreamer sees him or herself in
relation to the larger human community represented by the relatives. To
interpret dreams of this kind, discern what relatives were in the dream and
whether they are still living or dead in waking life. Many times, relatives who
have passed away are alive in our dreams. Usually, one of two circumstances
exist. Either the activity in the dream reminds you of a ritual aspect of the
relationship with this relative, or your relationship with the relative is
incomplete. Many times, dreams about relatives are recurring. These can have
both prophetic or historic meaning. This is especially true in cases where the
central characters are relatives with whom there is either emotional tension or
uncertainty concerning their health. If there is emotional tension, the dream
may be identifying the source of the tension to create an opportunity to
resolve it. If there are particular relatives with precarious health, the
dreams may resolve, or warn of, impending deaths in the family.
The place and occasion for the relatives' appearance in the
dream are important to the interpretation of it. For example, if only the women
in your family appear with you in a dream of an activity that they have
historically participated in together, you may see yourself as joining with the
family in new ways. There are numerous variations on this dream:
1. Not wanting to join the activity (ambivalence about
traditional expectations).
2. Joining a group of exclusively opposite-gendered family
members (confusion about fitting into the family on your terms).
3. Joining a group of family members with something unique in
common; i.e., all bald, all with cancer, all widowed, all single, etc.
(identifying with or having concern over ending up like others whom you chagrin
or pity).
While family members are powerful dream icons, their meaning can
be quite diverse. Often, free association is the key to discerning their impact
on your dreams and the meaning of that influence.
Individual family members, especially fathers and mothers (or
representations of them) are often prominent in dreams. For better or for
worse, they are primary influences in the shaping of our personalities. This
includes how we respond to our environmental stimuli, as well as how we value
ourselves and our inner nature.
Consequently, another significant aspect of relative dreams is
what these dreams show about how our individual ego development and personality
strength have been influenced by individual relative s, for good or ill.
Personality strengths and weaknesses often express themselves in alternating
generations. For example, in one generation, the father is relentless in
expressing anger. In the next generation, anger becomes taboo and
inexpressible. In this way, dreams of the individual parent often have a
compensatory effect.
Often you will have a dream that includes a particular family
member in a very unusual situation for that person (for example: scuba diving
with Grandma). Often in this type of dream there will be plenty of other
symbols and images that point to the true meaning of what the dream has in
store for you.
