22. The Dream Practices of the Melissae of the Ancient Mediterranean with Gabriela Gutierrez

In this episode of Ruby Ray, we're delighted to have Gabriela Gutierrez back for a conversation about dreaming as a form of changemaking. We discuss the dream practices of the Melissae Bee Maidens of Ancient Greece, and how they used dreamtime as a form of spiritual activism. We discuss dreaming with intention vs. on auto-pilot, and how dreams are a practice of deep healing and self-empowerment. We also talk about "Dream Activism," a form of collective dreamwork undertaken over the solstices and equinoxes every year.

We also talk about:

• How the cyclical nature of the Earth impacts our dreamworld
• Why our dreams are a practice of reclaiming our power
• The difference between medicinal vs. auto-pilot dreams
• Specific practices for distilling our dreams
• Oneiric dreaming temples of Ancient Greece and Mexico
