Last night was the beginning of the new year. After a good night of celebration there was but one mishap. Within the last moments before calling it a night, the key to the house broke in the lock. Fortunately I was able to ninja my way through a window. Interestingly enough this event rippled into my dreams that night.
In my dream I came across a table with goods and services. Among which was the service to fix broken keys. "Perfect!" - I've found a solution within the astral for a problem in the crystalline. Even though the key could not literally be mended, I woke up with a refreshed appreciation for the fact that within the astral we can commonly learn and find things to help us progress in the crystalline.
If you think that life is just about what happens when you are awake then as a student you are missing out on a huge part of it. Rather, understand that your life is constantly moving forward, even in your dreams. Things are happening fast these days, it makes sense when you think about it - there literally is not enough time in our waking life to learn as much as the universe wants us to. Therefor dreams are used to provide additional opportunity for us to continue living and learning every moment of the day and night. Constantly unfolding.
For example - say the universe wants to share with you a lesson about how to treat a friend: instead of actually having this lesson taught in the crystalline, you can go through a dream experience simulating and echoing the same scenario for the purpose of you still learning the lesson but then being able to pick up right where you left off in the crystalline without the flow of things being interrupted.
Like fixing a key in your dream, there are solutions to be found. As a student, it is our responsibility to listen to the teachings of the universe if we wish to graduate.
Check the stars- the ones in the sky and the ones in your mind.
