This is not a course on lucid dreaming induction but rather focused on how to navigate the lucid dream and work with transformations of imagery and self. With the metaphor of alchemy we will explore solar and lunar consciousness in lucid dreams and learn how to dance with these powerful ways of being in the dream. In particular we will be learning how our own choices in dreams (lucid and non-lucid dreams) create openings for uncanny knowledge and extraordinary experience. This course is included with membership at the Inner Sanctum level but will also be available for enrollment a la carte soon for the general public.

In fact, it's relevant for my friends across the pond too because we are entering into the harvest feast cycle that comes with the end of the year. These are often complicated holidays made more complicated by stress, travel and -- I'll just say it outl...
