IN THIS Department will be given interpretations of dreams and visions of those needing to know their inner meaning. We reserve for it only those of special interest and helpfulness.

I WANT to tell you of a dream I had not long ago. It seemed I was walking along a country road. I do not know how or when but the next thing I knew, I was sitting on a high seat of a new wagon drawn by two beautiful horses. The driver seemed to be a woman; however, I didn’t see her—nothing but her hands holding the reins, beautiful, strong hands.

We were riding along when she stopped the horses. I wondered why; but didn’t ask—when I saw water coming down from the left and it passed in front of us across the road, like waves in the gulf or sea. When these waves passed we drove on for a short ways, as though nothing had happened, when she stopped again, and similar waves passed in front of us as before. Going on a short way, I saw a great wall of water coming toward us fast. I was frightened. She didn’t say a word, but raised her hand as if to quiet me. Instantly I was calmed and was without fear. They were terrific waves, but passed before us doing no harm to anyone. I had seen some people ahead of us and wondered if they would be hurt.

The driver was sitting at my left. I do not know why I wrote that, but something has been telling me to say to you that the driver was at my left since I started to write this. I was on the right side—usually the driver’s place on a wagon. This dream has been coming into my mind over and over again, and I will be truly grateful if you will tell me its meaning.

Your dream is most significant. The new wagon being drawn by two beautiful horses was the new consciousness in which you are now riding, carried along by your obedient animal forces. The one driving is your Higher Self, who is always on your left side, the side of your heart. When you found how beautiful and strong were Her hands and how perfectly She was able to control the horses, were you not unafraid and willing to trust Her entirely? Those waves were nothing but the waves of emotion that cross your path frequently wherever you go, and you were shown just what you must do—stop and wait for them to get past and spend their force, before you go on. Without Her control of your emotional nature—the horses, you would have gotten excited and there would have been a “run-away.” But you were trusting all to the wonderful Driver beside you. If you will always observe this rule and allow Her to drive, you will be able to avoid every danger, and she will keep you from becoming involved in any of those waves or storms of emotion that threatened to engulf you in that outer experience you just passed through, and will bring you safely and quickly to the goal that awaits.
