What my dreams mean?

I have been reading a Shaman book, it says that I will want to know what my dreams are so I can get guidance from them. Well, I don't remember my dreams very often. However when I do have one that comes through and I remember it, it is really a doozy.
So I have my pad of paper and my pen next to my bed so I can journal when ever I have a dream and I also have been meditating on remembering my dreams. Hopeful I will start remembering them more often.
During my run yesterday, which was with out OZ our dog this time, I saw this little lizard in the road, as I ran up to it, it started going fast down the road with me. He stayed right with me for about 100 yards then turned off, right were I was turning off to another road. He went his way and I went mine. I have been making a point to notice everything in my life now, especially when it stands out like a lizard running with me. He was so sweet greenish gray with a blue strip down his back.
When I got home I got out my book "Animal Spirit Guides" by Steven D, Farmer. I am so glad I bought this book. In this book it tells you what the energy of each animal can teach you through their energy messages they have to give. So of course I read about lizards. It said to pay close attention to your dreams-especially recurring themes and images by keeping a dream journal and meditate on your dreams meanings and their messages. It tells much more, but this was so much what I needed to hear in this time of my life. I don't get surprised as much any more about how things show up so profound for me and let me know that I am on the best energy track. I love when I can be given messages all along the way from Source that will lead me and guide me to what is next. I was so happy that that little lizard was such a blessing to me. I know that I will soon be remembering my dreams because that is were some of my attention is going. Meditation is a very important part of my life always. I look forward to meditating so much every day.
I love knowing that animals and birds insects etc. all can be there for us too.
The most important person that you want there for you is you. Still working with "The Presence Process" I have been feeling that there was something coming up from my childhood. It would surface, I knew when it was time. The feeling was getting stronger after 2 weeks.
I had sat down in a comfy place I built for myself on my bed. I picked up a fairly new book that I have had for quite awhile but timing again hadn't been in place until I sat down to begin it. The name of the book is "Awakening to the Spirit World. The Shamanic Path of Direct Revelation. It comes with a CD with native American drumming and rattles, I had been listening to some of the time to get to a theta level while meditating. I was into reading an exercise for seeing. This is the sentence that broke me loose. Think of something you did as a child for which you were punished or that you felt bad about at the time. I have been restoring and balancing many childhood memories for a very long time and especially since I found "The Presence Process" so this was familiar to me. However when the thought that I felt bad came up, I started crying and couldn't stop for many minutes. I don't ever remember being bad, I remember people thinking I had been bad, blaming and accusing, but I know in my heart and the heart of my inner child that I was never bad as a child. I remember wondering why people would think that I was bad.
Here is were an animal can really help you out, OZ our dog came into my room he had heard me crying, he put his big black and white nose on the edge of my bed and just looked up at me with his big doggy eyes. I laughed and cried at the same time, and thanked him for coming in and telling me that he has never thought that I was bad. I could just feel his energy and the vibration he was putting out was so much love for me. I looked in the Animal Guide book on Dogs and found a part that really hit me. Keep your faith strong no matter what is going on in your life, and call on a dog when: You've been working on a project and your resolve is beginning to fade. OZ helped me to see that I could give my inner child more love, give myself all that love that I send to my grandchildren. I closed my eyes and pictured myself with my little Jackie, I told her she would be safe with me and that she could never be bad to me. I also told her she is sage with me. I know this sounds funny but I cuddled with her and she just faded back into being.
Our little child inside is begging to be released from all those emotional hurts that were put there buy someone who was not awake yet. They are those who can not see yet. If they can't see they can not bless others lives.
Love and cuddle with your inner child, nurture him/her this is part of becoming a loving awake person who can love All there is.
