“Engaging the audiences senses with a fine captivating show so they are freed from the conditioned mind to connect deeper and take an imaginal journey in their dream body :)”
It occurred to me that while doing a gig there is a whole lot more going on under the hood than meets the eyes!
And that the real aim of the game is mastering focused access to the dream-plane through clear imagination in order to enable collective journeys into areas of the dream-plane to which we and our audiences wish to travel…
Both to reclaim energy, heal binds, and experience fresh new energies to play with and also to access creative zones of countless gifts that we have yet to explore!
It, my role, keeps coming back to the ability to hold a vision in the minds eye while performing, writing, speaking or whatever, (even sex maybe?!), a vision and connection so strong, so persistent that it literally creates the reality/opportunity for us all there and then…
Opening the doorway to the soul, the portal to the collective imagination and has us share a space together for a while that is deeply healing and fulfilling…
It is both an inspiring aim and quite a daunting task, and in some way I realize to one degree or another it is natural to me and I have been doing it all my life, only now I am more cognizant of the process!
I have for instance leading up to many events, even as a young kid, felt this immense energy building before the event, way more than nerves, like a sense of “oh no do I have to go there again”, on some level I bloody KNEW exactly what was going on :)
And you know what, every time, I made it through, somehow it worked out, it connected, it worked, and so that should give us all hope! If a little sleepy guy can do it, then anyone can…
Most bands and artists are hanging out in similar zones, familiar patterns of the collective consciousness, and I suppose they succeed on a large scale because these are zones most people understand, are familiar with…
You see, just like we have “physical boundaries” hangouts where we like to congregate, communities and the like which we are accustomed to, we also have “dream boundaries”, zones of consciousness, containing the energy signatures we are most familiar with and so that is what we tend to attract to…
These pretty much dictate to us where we go with our lives, and where we go in our imaginations, what quality of vision and energy we are open to access at this stage!
It is very clear and obvious with styles of music/art/business where in the dream-plane people are hanging out, their entire sound, look, and feel pretty much reflect it…
Few realize it consciously, but in their desire to familiarize and connect with a certain group or style they start to attract the key symbology of that zone and when they reflect it then it responds back in kind and they feel good about it, strong, happy, powerful and so on, even if it is quite grimy and not their “true family” they at-least feel they fit in somewhere, that they belong!
And it is this desire for a sense of belonging that gives rise to many of our wonderful experiences, literally pulling us and urging us through life to connect with people, places and aims that we enjoy creating, a cosmic itch in the soul you never seem able to scratch!
And it is good while you want to journey, otherwise we would not do anything, we wouldn’t need to, we’d be like the master on the rock, needing nothing and lapping up life’s pure and simple joys…
While we still want to play and muck about then we do, and so long as we remember to touch in with the truth, that which is deepest inside of us, we are free to explore and do as we please…
One more point on this sense of belonging!
If we forget what that truly is, the primary desire, that is when we can start to place our energy and our trust in places that are not truly serving our deepest desires…
Our souls cosmic itch instead of calling us on as we planned actually has us binding and connecting to all the “wrong stuff”, and it rewards us to a degree, gives us Scooby snacks and a pat on the head giving us a kind of acceptance “good little girl and boy, well done!”…
This can feel rewarding, and there is some place for this being accepted, but unless it comes from the true source, your soul and your own pure power, then it is little more than a temporary fix, a bland and unsatisfying meal, and it’s effects soon fade…
There is then a definite art to this, both keeping your wits and discernment about you, not going along with any old zones of energy and yet not fighting anything or denying it its right to exist, maybe singing it’s song, telling its story so it can feel free to rest…
And then basically continuing on with your journey through the very multifaceted dream plane, helping where you can and generally learning to have fun with it and not get too spooked :)
It’s a bloody weird path, but heck, I suppose it is fun… Most of the time!!
Peace Sean
