In September of 1992, I was on a spiritual retreat with several women. They had gone out into the wilderness for a private ceremony, while I settled in for a nap in the tipi. I thought I was recovering from a cold -- I really had pneumonia. My priority was to heal my body.

As I drifted out of physical self consciousness, I saw a neon white tornado spiraling toward my womb. There was no story line to this dream. In fact, there's nothing to tell except that when I awoke, I quickly grabbed my journal and wrote down an entire body of information.

I had been shown/told that there are 13 types of dreaming, roughly one for each of the 13 moons in a dreamer's year. They are not totally separated and distinguished (many dreams have aspects of more than one type). They are not definitive (there may be other types of dreaming for some people).

Following are the basic definitions of the thirteen types of dreams. If you want a more thorough discussion, and some examples, read The Woman's Book of Dreams. Also, in August of 2001 my new book, Dreams are Letters from the Soul, will be published. It discusses the thirteen types of dreams in much greater detail. Watch for it.
