A post about dreams and journals ... you've definitely got my attention!
I've noticed a profound shift in the feeling-tone of my dreams over the past year. Dreams of catastrophic calamities, being chased, hiding from murderers and the like have shifted to much more positive and benevolent themes. And something new has emerged recently ... actually receiving answers in my dreams to questions I pose before bedtime! I've tried this technique for so long but usually to no avail, but the past two times I asked, I had specific dreams about the people and places I was inquiring about.
To record my dreams, I usually handwrite them when I wake up and recently have been transferring them to a Word document (by way of speech-to-text) so I can search them. I started doing this in December 2022, and the Word file is now almost 50 single-spaced pages!
As for notetaking and journaling, I've resorted to using one notebook for everything. I tried the multiple-book method, but it makes me feel discombobulated. I've told myself that my dreams, journalings, and daily doses of inspiration and planning are all me, so they can live in the same space. :-)
I love all of this!! And I love how you’ve noticed the feeling scape changing over time, the meta pattern of your dream life…so cool!
I definitely used to keep my regular journal and dreams together. Daphne was the defining factor 😆 and now I’ve found that it just works for me to have those separate. But I totally hear you. My other notebook is more “note-y” and less “write-y” if that makes sense at all 😆
Also love that a post about dreams and journals gif your attention- you are my people! 😄🥰❤️😍
