GOING TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN

PART I:

My sister and I were attempting to travel down a mountain side. There were two roads. The first road going directly down, was blocked with men doing construction, and no one could pass. These men left their vehicles along the road going around the mountain, so we thought we would take one and go the other way. We soon came to another pass. We stopped and talked with old friends of my sister who lived on top of the hill. One old woman in particular she wanted me to meet, whose name was Moo. She didn't appear that old to me, but compared to the others she was the oldest. Everyone sat around her, and was amazed she was even alive. She was  smiling and having a good time, and I think they all wished us well on our journey. We got to what looked like an avalanche, a steep incline we had to go up, and very rocky. There were beginning to be many people around us  now, all attempting to get to the other side of the mountain.

During the up climb we came to a natural bridge. I remember crossing but then I was under the bridge, and saw that it was very unstable, with little  to no support, and I was warning the passers on it to stay near the mountain side, and only cross one at a time. Part of the bridge crumbled,  and single file crossing became a must. I remembered seeing my niece  there, and she had an emotional time believing she could cross.

I was suddenly on the other side of the mountain, standing in front of a blocked passage way. There were many different passage ways on the other side where everyone was trying to come from, but only one outlet on the side of the mountain everyone was trying to get to. There were a couple of  other people there with me, and somehow we unblocked that passage way (which looked like the end of a tunneled slide). As soon as we did this people began pouring into the other portals to come to the other side of the mountain.

END of Part I

PART II

I was immediately inside the body of a woman who was walking down a street with a man from India. I felt as though the two of them were married. They were in a small town (which reminded me of the small town I live in) except that the town had grown, and there were little tourist shops everywhere. The man and woman passed by a shop window where a beautiful pure white Spanish type jacket was displayed (all alone) and it was trimmed in gold and silver. The woman said to the man, "you would look good in that jacket." He said, "It would not be appropriate." It was then that I realized that everyone was in very subdued colors of blue, black, and browns. The woman said, "It is just that the jacket would fit you perfectly." and they passed on. I realized at that point that what she meant was that the whole spiritual makeup of that jacket and all it represented was what the man was. It was like a second "skin" to him. But he was choosing not to be that kind of person.

They were going into a small place to eat, and it reminded me something of Ponderosa Steak House, or an eatery that is somewhere you would serve yourself. And as they entered the door, a waitress greeted them, and I saw two small booths, and a blackboard sign that show a couple of different dinners, steak and I think some fish. They said, they weren't there for dinner, they wanted breakfast, and went through another door to a much larger, regular looking dining room...

The idea was that they were going to eat breakfast before going into the BioSphere. It was there intention to go there for a limited time. The biosphere held a limited number of people for a limited time. The two people had papers or permission to be going in there. And it seemed that the town had grown up around the BioSphere, and perhaps was maintaining it.

There was no harshness between people entering the sphere or people  outside the sphere. Both places seemed in harmony, and I didn't feel that one was better off than another. More like a theme park, that was maintained by the community outside of it.

Those were great dreams and really positive.

The symbolism of 'going to the mountain', 'spiritual food for thought', 'crossing the bridge', 'the sacred marriage', 'the second skin we wear'.

It also shows the difficulties of getting there, and that people are working hard to make it easier, (the construction men).

The old woman named "Moo" might be a spiritual guide. She could try calling her name in meditation and see if she comes to her.

I particularly liked the part where helping others to be able to get to the other side too:

>only one outlet on the side of the mountain everyone was trying to get to. There were a couple of other people there with me, and somehow we unblocked that passage way (which looked like the end of a tunneled slide). As soon as we did this people began pouring into the other portals to come to the other side of the mountain.

The man could be the male aspect of herself in the sacred marriage:

>The man and woman passed by a shop window where a beautiful pure white Spanish type jacket was displayed (all alone) and it was trimmed in gold and silver. The woman said to the man, "you would look good in that jacket." He said, "It would not be appropriate."

I think he was saying that he could not wear the spiritual jacket that would make him stand out from the others, but would allow him to mingle with those in the subdued colors so he could do his spiritual work among them.

The Biosphere actually sounds like earth perhaps in the future, where everything was in harmony.  

Love, Light, and Joy
