In the <em>Unfolding Series<\/em> characters can not only be conscious in their dreams, they can share their dreams with other characters. Have you ever wanted to share a dream?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"..\/..\/borderlands\/on-dreaming-and-gong-there\/\">On Dreaming and &#8220;Going There&#8221;<\/a> gave basic information on dreams.<\/p>\n<p>If this interests you, write out your personal thoughts on what you think is the nature of dreams.<\/p>\n<p>Do a little web searching. There are a lot of resources available these days. Begin with what science has discovered.<\/p>\n<p>Start a dream journal. It can be a very simple format. Make notes of what you remember. Over time you will find it becomes easier to recall dreams in greater detail.<\/p>\n<p>Look into historical information and what earlier peoples though of dreams and of dreamtine.<\/p>\n<p>Can you imagine what it would be to live in a culture where people accepted shared dreams as common?<\/p>\n<p>For now\u00a0\u2013 stay away from books on dream interpretation.

The odds are you&#8217;ll do better at basic interpretation working alone than if you try to make sense of dreams using popular books and magazine articles. Save those for later on.<\/p>\n<p>Then see if you can become aware that you are dreaming while you are in the dream state. This may take a little practice. Keep it simple, adding how aware, or conscious, you were during the dream when you make entries into your journal.<\/p>\n<p>After you\u2019ve become able to recall your dreams when in a waking state, you\u2019ll want to think about how you can influence your dreams to either benefit yourself in the waking world, or to give your dreams a direction.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\n&#8211;<\/strong>\u00a0<em><strong>Jeffrey A.
