CROSSING THE THRESHOLD: A DREAM JOURNAL EXERCISE
JANUS
Janus is an ancient deity with two faces. His shrines are found at the crossroads. He is the Guardian of the Gate through which we must pass at the beginning of the year. He reminds us that as we meditate on new beginnings, we also must ponder over the endings.
Janus is the presiding deity who holds the knife that cuts both ways in the dream. This spirit’s blessing is necessary for embarking upon any fresh outlook or new venture in the new year.
YOUR MISSION SHOULD YOU ACCEPT IT….
Create a pair of journal pages in which you explore the past and the future of one of your dream images.
We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us. -Joseph Campbell
