Your ancestors are trying to contact you via dreams. This book teaches you how to interpret those dreams and heal generational trauma.
We are the dreams of our ancestors; the time-traveled embodiment of their hopes for the future. Our ancestors can pass their blessings and wisdom to us via dreams, but sometimes their lingering trauma is transmitted through nightmares. With this book, you can heal that intergenerational pain and focus on the gifts of ancestral connection. You can even pass that healing to future generations.
Linda Yael Schiller teaches you how to tap into the consciousness of your dreams—both in sleep and sleep-adjacent practices such as trance, meditation, and guided imagery. Linda demonstrates that recurring characters, animals, and objects can be an ancestor reaching out, either through a whisper or a shout. Whether you are practicing alone or with a group, this book features guided and interactive dreamwork to help you dream the world you hope for into being.
