Just Like a Dream

Just Like a Dream.

I woke up Friday morning from a dream that felt hours long. Cary Grant, in a mashup of classic film roles, was choosing to marry the woman he loved because he had finally made money as an artist. It was like An American in Paris, but with Grant in the lead, meets An Affair to Remember. I smiled because Spirit and soul knew exactly who to cast in the dream of my life.

The dream had been in shades of black, white, and bright yellow. And it seemed to have lasted from the pre-dawn hours until I woke up happy to have been dreaming about Cary Grant. As soon as my mind cleared, I knew it was a message and knew what it meant. I could feel it all. My life is about to expand and my dreams are about to come true. 

In the dream I was the movie goer, the viewer, and I knew that had meaning too. My role is to sit back and watch the breakthroughs enter my life. The themes were related to the areas of my life that Spirit and soul have told me were about to expand - love and money. Even Cary Grant’s signature screwball comedic timing and romantic sensibilities were signs for me about the emotional changes entering my life.

During my morning tea and spiritual practices, parts of the dream were replaying in my awareness. During my gratitude practice, my intuition flared on the parts that related to the themes of the dream. To emphasize the messages, The Cure’s Just Like a Dream replayed in my awareness over and over. 

The Current Sky.

With the dream still on my mind, the Gemini full moon on December 4th had me wondering about my astrological chart. I opened the app and began looking at my current transits. Jupiter was on top of my natal placement - a natal return in my second house. I began to search for the meaning.

I learned that Jupiter returns bring expansions. Occurring in my second house meant that I was likely to experience expansions in material abundance and prosperity. It can also be a time of expanding talents and resources. 

All of it reflects not only the themes of the film dream, but also what Spirit and soul have been showing me in all sorts of messages and synchronicities. 

The Cards.

About once or twice a week I am guided towards a tarot or astrology reading on YouTube. This past week was no different. I was guided to a tarot reading that had both the 10 of cups and the 10 of wands - completions.

Both cards signal the end of a cycle. Cups refer to water, emotional, creative, spiritual themes. In my situation, taking into consideration the dream, it meant emotional themes or a relationship. Wands refer to fire, drive, work. For me, the 10 of wands meant the end of a challenging cycle. In relation to my Jupiter return, it meant getting my fire back, energy to move forward was coming.

Another sign came during my meditation and gratitude practice on Saturday morning, I received a strong and repeating intuitive message “completions”. The 10 of cups and 10 of wands energy entered my awareness. The messages were being repeated and confirmed. Endings and new beginnings are coming.

Another tarot reading I was guided to was titled “How Gemini Got Their Groove Back” by The Majestic Tarot. That reading resonated deeply and spoke to completions and new beginnings.

The numerical synchronicities I receive are reflecting the same energies. Blessings, manifestations, well-earned rewards, breakthroughs, and expansion are the messages that repeat almost daily. 

The messages and synchronicities cannot be more clear. My life is about to change.

The Dream. 

The dream, my astrological transits, the tarot readings, my intuitive guidance, synchronicities are delivering a message - my life is about to change. It is time for my awakening process to enter a new phase, a new era. It is time for dreams to come to fruition. And I have to say I am both relieved and ready.

My spiritual path this year has been exhausting. The work of deconstructing my old life carried weight that almost broke me, as it is designed to do. The dream brought me back into a lighter state of being. Encouraging love and light, and the emotion of hope. 

Everything, the dream, the current sky, the cards, and all the synchronicities are telling me the same thing - breakthroughs are coming. My life is about to change and I feel ready. 

Not ready because I want or need change, but ready because Spirit and soul have been preparing me for these changes throughout my entire awakening process. Ready because it is Divine timing. 

Spirit and soul are telling me I am ready for the next era of my life. It is time to expand and have an entirely new life experience. We are ready, I am ready, to manifest the dream that Spirit, soul, and I have for my life.
