Dolphin Dreams dream-catchers
tell us that dolphins are among the most intelligent creatures on the
earth and they are some of the most playful. They live in their heart as
well as in their mind. Dolphins show us the way to a balanced way of
being. Mind does not rule the heart. Neither does the heart dominate the
mind. They are a manifestation of Love and Will perfectly blended. WHO,
their Higher Self, is playing joyfully in what. When you awaken from your
sleep, you will be ready to take on the new challenges to learn and to Be.
In learning to be your natural Self you will discover joy and play. Accept
your power with joy, love and playfulness. At the core of your power to be
human is the playfulness of the NOWmoment. The past is dead and the future
is not yet born. Only Now truly exists and only in Now can you be truly
alive. Dance with the Dolphins, here and now.
Dolphin Dreams: Ego vs. Heart
Traveling back and forth across the United
States for five years marketing and teaching about dream catchers has
required discipline in many ways but especially in getting rid of
unnecessary things. As I was preparing to move to Chicago, I was sorting,
packing, rearranging when I came upon a box of dream-catcher rings that had lost their
circular shape. They were open, making a C. I could see no value in them for
weaving dream-catchers so
I began to throw them away. "No! We are to be a new dream catcher!" It was
almost a shout ringing through my awareness. So I began to play with the
possibilities, weaving a dream-catcher inside the C-rings with techniques I had perfected
for Path of the Spirit Dream-Catchers, Rolling Thunder Dream-Catchers, and later for the Butterfly
Dream-Catchers. I
combined three rings, but when I was done there was no answer to my query
for a name and story. This was quite unusual because the dream catchers had
previously told me what I needed. Now there was only silence.
The next day I spoke about Dream-Catchers of the Seventh Fire DreamCatcher
Heritage Collection at the Heritage Center of Stearns County in St.
Cloud, Minnesota. When I finished, a young woman came forward to ask
questions and request a special dream catcher for each of her two daughters.
The totem animal of Alainna was the bear. For Jessica it was the dolphin.
The dolphin! That was the dream catcher I had woven the night before! I
could almost hear the spirits giggling at their prank. I also learned to be
patient, to accept and allow.
Later, the story for the Dolphin Dreams dream-catchers would be written
after I had had several intense encounters with people who lived mostly in
their head, driven by ego. Some of them believed that they were free of ego,
that they had successfully "killed" the ego. They believed that the ego had
no purpose except to mislead and cause mischief so they "got rid of the
ego". In such cases I saw the ego sneak up on them repeatedly and launch a
surprise attack. Their system of denial was so effective that afterwards
they could not see that their behavior was the result of ego.
The only effective way I have found to deal with the ego is to acknowledge
its valuable input, its advice and counsel, then smile fondly, pat it on the
head, and "take away the keys to the family car."
Euro-American society values ego over heart and trains us, in-structs us to
give ego dominance over the heart. Ego has become necessary to civilized
society because the circle has been broken. In the circle each person cares
for the whole circle and the whole circle cares for each person. In the
circle leadership is shared, rotated so that each person learns to lead and
to follow. As ducks and geese migrate between their winter and summer homes
they fly in a V-formation that takes advantage of an undulating flow of air,
a vortex street that begins with the wing beats of the leader. The birds in
the second position follow at the left and right in the wake of the leader.
They can fly with much less effort in the rolling waves of the leader‘s
rhythm. Their wing beats catch the wake and stroke it to keep it rolling
along the formation to the birds in the third position and so on. When the
leader tires she falls back in the formation while another moves ahead to
work at splitting the air for the others. The formation rides along on the
shared effort of all.
Life can be so much easier for us if we would learn from nature. For humans
the circle is a most natural and fulfilling way to live. In the circle we
can see that giving is the same as receiving. When the geese and ducks
migrate they give and they receive, receive and give. There is no
difference. The others in the formation are important to them. Each has
value and worth, in themselves and for the whole. Not all can fly with the
same strength and endurance. Perhaps others are more alert to danger when
the flock is resting or sleeping. Others may be better at identifying the
landmarks or the best places to stop and eat. Who knows, some might be the
philosophers or poets?
Like the wing beats of the birds, we can create vortex streets of spiraling
energy that can carry each of us, all of us, to a deeper experience. There
are many leadership tasks in a dynamic circle. Some are good at talking to
people. Some are teachers. A few are good at selling. Everyone has some form
of creativity that has yet to be fully tapped and appreciated. Some are
effective communicators on the telephone or in a group. Others write well or
understand computers and Internet access. We can discover the special
function of our own being in the circle, like an organ in a body. Each of us
can learn from others in the circle. We learn how to fly together, to travel
beyond our limitations, to discover how unlimited we really are. In the
circle, all are woven into the same fabric so that giving is not about
losing or giving away something of yourSelf. Self expands and becomes
progressively larger. The illusion of that which is ME and that which is NOT
ME begins to disappear. Trust is the natural outcome of the way of the
circle. Ego is no longer necessary for survival. Survival is driven by fear
when our vision of who we are is narrow and limited.
Dolphin Dreams dream-catchers whisper the wisdom of the heart as the
ultimate navigator for our Earth Journey.

This is a crazy world. What can be
done? Amazingly, we have been mislead. We have been taught that we can
control government by voting. The founder of the Rothschild dynasty, Mayer
Amschel Bauer, told the secret of controlling the government of a nation
over 200 years ago. He said, "Permit me to issue and control the money of
a nation and I care not who makes its laws." Get the picture? Your freedom
hinges first on the nation's banks and money system. That's why we
advocate using the
Liberty Dollar, to understand the
monetary and banking system. Freedom is connected with
Debt Elimination for each individual. Not
only does this end personal debt, it places the people first in line as
creditors to the National Debt ahead of the banks. They don't wish for you
to know this. It has to do with recognizing WHO you really are in
A New Beginning: A Practical Course in Miracles.

take
back your power and

always has been yours and use it to pay off your debts. And you can send
others to these pages to discover what you are discovering.
