Coming and Going
I am at a beautiful, spacious, and clean church. Fr. Louie is there. (A gifted priest I had an up and down friendship and working relationship with )I think I am supposed to do the music. I don’t know how.
I go up into a choir space and there is a group there, singing. I say, “I want to join the choir.”
Then I leave the church and go maybe to a garden. Fr. Louie is planting vegetables. I am with several other people.
I see that the group in the choir loft is an evangelical group that tours the country. I notice that the leader is becoming dictatorial. I see that they all live
In a van. Sleep and eat there. It’s not very big and that seems very unpleasant., although they don't seem to mind I go back into the church. There is a service going on. I wonder if I sing a very well-known song, acapella, that the congregation will sing with me.
I keep leaving the church and walking around with my two or three friends. There is something about a box of food or something I have that is rotten or not acceptable. (Your feedback?)

I think we have certain dreams that are disjointed because we cannot make up our minds about the subject matter and try to interpose order, perhaps in a kind of tug-of-war with the dream intent, and so the results end up being jumbled--only speculation, of course, but some of mine feel...ruined somehow, unaccepted *by* me, or perhaps because I was unprepared to gain information from them. This is something I have seen much evidence of: the huge difference between being mentally-emotionally prepared for a dream, to receive and remember and process it, and the ones that blindside us in some way that is much harder if not impossible to accept (and therefore process in a meaningful way). I am always trying to school myself to be ready for whatever comes, and as hard as it is for the boyish-me, heh, to not interrupt them when they are trying to lead/inform me. But as with all things in life, it is tough to be consistently prepared, perhaps because scrambling to respond in unpreparedness is a vital part of our growth (ie, how we react to the unexpected--from a psychological standpoint, that certainly tells us much about ourselves).

Anyway, happy dreaming, and oh...did the congregation let you sing your song, and did they sing along? :) (I will note with amusement that while you are dreaming of beautiful, spacious churches, I am dreaming of strange/mysterious ancient temples.)

No, that didn't play out as far as the singing.

I think this dream is about what is happening here on dreamforum. Among other things about what i sad in Tarnishing Spray and i suppose that i am "the gifted priest I had an up and down friendship and working relationship with" In this context. "There is something about a box of food or something I have that is rotten or not acceptable" is I think about the spoiled spiritual food, the dailey bread, that God had dilivered as "the things inside the cabinet", "the box of food" ...

From the the first day you didn't buy a lot. But I understand, that's normal: be always critical even to professor Jung. Don't swallow anything but stay critical using your brain. Our creator, The Almighty God, The Supreme Inteligent Energy has gifted al of us within. You now "the little box" refer to the important things inside of the cabinet. Do the work but be carefull. Quality above quantity.

I see the rotten food as a manifestation that has occurred within you, from your previous dream of the ripe tomatoes, maybe its something you have let go of, something that didn't align with your true values, your spirit wants to sing and align you to this new frequency, with a sense of freedom and harmony, as with the church representing spiritual growth. You go outside and are surrounded by nourishment and growth from the garden, maybe these signs will show up in your life as synchronicities guiding you, I usually say everything is within us, but in this sense I feel there is something outside of you, that is coming to you very soon. You observe their living space in the van, although it seems unpleasant, you accept that it is their way of living, and so you don't judge, this is most important, our higher self showing us how we are observed just as we observe others, and so while you are walking with your friends, you sense there is something wrong with the food, but they don't judge you, and accept you, just as you are, it is a dream of reflection in my opinion, and a very good dream scenario indeed, I think your higher self wants you to celebrate your achievements!

Alice, I think you have hit upon something about not judging. To find one's spiritual path without judging another's. The garden in real life is one of my happy places.
