Dreams and the full moon

There is a full moon coming upon March 19th.It is about 14% bigger than normal due to the moon's closer than normal proximity to the earth. With the  full moon, it is true that people are bit weirder than usual. The intense  stories  that you have heard from  people working in emergency rooms or on   24 hour hot lines are  true.    I feel that there is a thin veil between the physical  and the spiritual  worlds at the time of the full moon. In the NY times book review, there was a review of a book called  Nocturne: A Journey in Search of Moonlight by James Atlee. The author  went on a worldwide journey in  search of the  affects of moon light on our lives and he  found that in Islamic societies "The night becomes a creative space and a source of inspiration rather something to be feared, as it so often has been in Western cultures".

I dreamed of Badger

Often times, when I am percolating new ideas, I do not sleep very well. The nights are long and I can't wait to start moving around  in the morning. This was the case about two nights ago when  I dreamt about a badger. I had started thinking about a new way for my healing  work to proceed. I have been fantasizing about holding a Mystery school in the barn. A mystery school is ,succinctly put,  a school for "soul work". It is funny since I went to school for social work  . Maybe it is the precursor for some of us to get more involved in our own personal  journey. The night that I decided to do this different form of work. When I dreamt of a badger. I was sitting in my chair and I looking  out the window at a badger. He was quite friendly and  he was smiling in at me. It was lovely exchange. I thought about being afraid but then  let it go. The next day, I went on the internet and found out very interesting information about the badger.
