Vision Quest: Day 7
Sunday June 17, 2005
Again I couldn’t catch my dreams. They didn’t seem very vivid or memorable. Maybe I am already used to my retreat and it isn’t stirring my unconscious any more, or maybe it is a side effect of the physical tiredness. I dragged myself into the house for tea and my exercises but only managed half of my warm ups. I took my blood pressure and it was 94/65, quite low for me.
Tom got up and we talked about making the future altar, materials, and my design ideas. He seemed quite interested and thinks it won’t cost too much to do. Wehad a good discussion and I perked up enough to come back to my tent to do my 1 ½ hour Holosync meditation and write in my journal. It is quite hot again today. My eyelids are sweating into my eyes and I have another tiny tiny tick to remove. Hmmm also time for a shower while I have this bit of energy.
I listened to the next two parts of lesson 4 which were how to add a value and how to resolve conflicts between values. The techniques were quite interesting. I also read more of the astrology magazine and looked at my chart. I meditated. Then I read the previous vision quest summary. I felt bad physically and emotionally. Later I did a ritual.
It was rather windy and I wasn’t sure it was a good idea to have a
fire but we did a small one and kept it low by adding only twigs. Tom and
I watched the Moon almost occult Antares. We used binoculars and looked at
the stars. It always amazes me how many more one can see with just binoculars.
The sky is so filled with light!
