December 5, 2009 – December 6, 2009
Portland, Oregon
In this fun, high-energy program we’ll learn techniques for empowering and healing our lives, every day, through dreams, coincidence and imagination. Dreaming, we have access to rich sources of healing and creativity. In our dreams, we are coached on how to handle challenges and opportunities that lie in the future; we become time travelers and communicate with spiritual teachers and allies.
Coincidence may be a signal from a deeper world, and a chance encounter may be an amazing opportunity. By monitoring the play of coincidence, we awaken to a hidden logic of events, and gain access to extraordinary counsel. Synchronicity opens paths we never noticed before, and draws new people and events towards us according to our passions and our willingness to go with the flow.
Through the practice of imagination, we can help to heal our bodies and move towards the manifestation of our heart’s desires. As Tagore said, with a poet’s insight, “the stronger the imagination, the less imaginary the results.”
Workshop Hours: Saturday 10am-5pm, Sunday 10am-4pm. Tuition: $195 if paid in full before Nov 15, $245 thereafter.

I received a review book in the mail this week that I’m finding very intriguing: "The Three "Only" Things — Tapping the Power of Dreams, Coincidence & Imagination", by Robert Moss. The title of the book refers to three interrelated experiences that are often dismissed as "only" things — as in "it’s only a dream", or "it’s just a coincidence", or "it’s only my imagination". Moss contends that is is "only" through bringing these experiences more consciously into our awareness and validating them that we become alive to the totality of our own lives.
Moss discusses each of these realms of experience by presenting their rules, powers, or uses, such as the seven secrets of imagination (including moving beyond our blocks, growing visions, and imagining something desired into reality); and the nine rules of coincidence (including the attraction of like for like, and how motion multipies coincidence); and nine powers of dreaming (including dream coaching, seeing the future, tapping creativity, and understanding relationships). Anecdotes and stories of how others, both famous and anonymous, have used these gifts to guide their decisions and foster creativity are sprinkled throughout the book, along with practical guidelines and tools for tapping the power of the "three ‘only’ things" ourselves. By treating our waking-life world symbolically (like a dream) we can see patterns and events in a new and different way that fosters greater wisdom and understanding.
