One of the most transformative parts of my dreamwork journey has been highlighting every word spoken — both by me and by others — within my dreams. What started as simple color-coding became an awakening in itself. As I began underlining or highlighting the dialogue in my dream journal, I realized something profound: my dreams were constantly speaking to me, through me, and sometimes even as me.
It was as if the conversations inside my dreams carried layers of my emotions, thoughts, guidance, and even gentle encouragement that I hadn’t recognized before. A single phrase spoken by a dream character could echo something I’d been feeling in waking life but hadn’t yet put into words. Other times, my own dream voice offered the reassurance or clarity I had been seeking all along.
At first, I didn’t always remember what was said. The words felt fuzzy, as if they dissolved the moment I woke up. But over time, through consistent journaling and daily dreamwork, something incredible began to happen. My recall deepened. I started waking up with full sentences in my mind — entire conversations, tone, and emotional nuance intact.
Now, when I read back through my highlighted pages, I can hear the dialogue like a recording from my subconscious. The voices, emotions, and insights feel alive and real — offering me guidance and self-reflection each morning.
It’s amazing how simply practicing daily journaling can open that doorway. The more I commit to recording my dreams, the more clearly I can hear what my inner self has been saying all along.
If you’ve ever wondered what your dreams are trying to tell you, start with this: highlight the words. Capture the voices. Listen between the lines. You might be surprised at how much wisdom, reassurance, and healing has been whispering to you in your sleep.
Start Your Own Dream Mapping Journey
To help you begin your own practice, I created the 30-Day Dream Mapping Journal — a guided journal designed to help you record, reflect, and interpret your dreams with purpose. Inside, you’ll find Dream Mapping pages, symbol prompts, Section to Create your own Dream Dictionary and weekly reflection spreads to deepen your understanding of what your subconscious is revealing.
When I began using my Dream Mapping Journal, I didn’t expect such a dramatic change in just two weeks. For years, my dreams were filled with chaos, anxiety, and recurring nightmares that left me feeling drained when I woke up. But something shifted when I decided not just to record my dreams—but to map them.
Dream mapping helped me look at my dreams as messages instead of mysteries. Each night, I wrote every detail I could remember: the setting, the people, the symbols, and most importantly—the emotions I felt. That last part changed everything.
At first, I noticed a pattern: my dreams were often set at night, featuring houses, cars, cats, and streets. These symbols kept appearing, weaving in and out of my dream stories. When I began connecting them through my dream maps, I realized they weren’t random at all—they were reflections of different parts of my waking life.
Through the Seven Dream Doors, Dream Windows, and Dream Mirrors exercises, I learned to view my dreams from multiple angles—how they showed my fears, my hopes, and the emotions I hadn’t yet processed during the day. Each dream became like a mirror, showing me what I needed to see but hadn’t yet acknowledged.
Then one night, I had a dream that felt like a breakthrough.
I was a baby, fully aware and filled with understanding and wisdom. I tried to speak to the people caring for me, but only gibberish came out. They couldn’t understand me—and that was perfectly okay. I laughed with pure joy, knowing I didn’t need to prove what I knew. The knowledge was already within me. That dream filled me with a deep sense of peace. It reminded me that inner wisdom doesn’t always need to be translated or validated—it simply exists, and it’s always there.
A few nights later, I had another dream that marked a turning point.
I found myself in a taxi cab, but this time, something had changed. The car that used to be driven by others was now mine. I was sitting behind the wheel, and the taxi had become my personal car. I came to a stoplight and sat there thinking—should I turn left, make a U-turn, or go straight ahead? I realized that moment symbolized choice: I could go back, take a detour, or keep moving forward. And I knew—it was time to drive forward.
It felt as though all the work I had done—the mapping, the reflection, the emotional release—had dropped me back at the exact point in my dream journey where I’d left off years ago. Only this time, I was the one driving.
After that, my dreams began to change entirely. One night, I dreamed I was simply driving on a long, straight road. The night was calm, the air was peaceful, and there was nothing to fix or fear. That was the entire dream—and it felt complete.
By around the 14th day, I began to notice something else: my dreams had calmed down. I went from having three to five intense dreams each night—the kind that woke me up and left me tired—to sleeping more deeply and dreaming more peacefully. I wasn’t waking up as often, and when I did dream, the tone was gentle and reassuring. It felt like I had worked through the emotional blocks that had been surfacing in my earlier dreams—like negative self-talk, worry, and old fears about what others think.
By Day 17, something incredible happened: the nightmares stopped completely. My dreams became peaceful, clear, and deeply informative. Instead of fear, I felt understanding. Instead of confusion, I felt calm.
Dream mapping guided me to recognize emotional patterns I’d never seen before—and once I faced them, my subconscious shifted. My dream world opened into something new, almost like I had passed through my own seventh dream door into a brighter, more meaningful space.
Remember, every dream is a message written in symbols, waiting to be understood.
And the best part? It all started with a pen, a page, and the willingness to listen.
Have you ever had a dream where you knew something deeply, even if you couldn’t express it? What do you think your subconscious was trying to tell you?

Why I Wrote This Book
Dreams
have always been a guiding light in my life. They hold messages,
warnings, insights, and creative sparks that can shift the way we see
ourselves and the world around us. For years, I’ve been helping others interpret their dreams and discover the wisdom hidden in their
sleep stories.
But
I wanted to create something more—something you could hold in your
hands and use as a personal tool every day. That’s why I wrote 30 - Day Dream Mapping Journal. It’s not just a book—it’s a practical guide and workbook for your dream journey.
How This Journal Will Benefit You

world and uncover insights that can inspire your waking life.
I’m introducing Dark Dreamscapes — a chilling new series straight from my own nightmares. Each episode is narrated by me, but the images are left completely up to your imagination. No visuals, no distractions. Just the sound of my voice and the vivid worlds your own mind will conjure.
That means the shadows, the faces, and the eerie details will be entirely yours. Depending on how creative (or how dark) your imagination may be, the story could turn even more haunting.
The lesson of this episode still connects back to my heart: positively dreaming. Even nightmares carry meaning, and through facing them, we uncover the deeper messages hidden in our subconscious.
I’m also thrilled to announce that my 30-Day Dream Mapping Journal will officially launch on October 1st! This guided workbook is designed to help you track your dreams, symbols, and subconscious insights in a whole new way. Think of it like building an evidence board of your dream life — connecting places, people, and repeating patterns you might not even realize are there.
So join me as we step into the shadows of my sleep. Listen closely. Imagine deeply. And remember: The Message is in your Dreams.
Explore the Akashic Records and how they connect to dreams, past lives, and healing. With guest Leilani Lucero, a master Akashic Records practitioner.
Positively Dreaming Podcast — Episode Recap & Show Notes
In this week’s episode, I sit down with Leilani Lucero—a master Akashic Records practitioner, multi-dimensional energy healer, medium, and spiritual teacher—to explore what the Akashic Records are, how we access them, and how our dreams may act as a bridge to this “library of the soul.”
I ask from my usual dreaming-mind perspective: Do recurring symbols, familiar dream figures, or those floor-to-ceiling library dreams point us toward our Records? How do we tell intuition from ego? And what does a real Akashic session feel like?
What Are the Akashic Records?
Leilani describes the Records as an energetic repository—sometimes called the “Book of Life”—that holds your soul’s truth: past lives, future potentials, patterns, emotions, choices, and more. Every being has their own Records, and there’s also a universal field containing all of creation.
“We’re constantly updating the Records. Every choice you make shifts the energy that’s recorded.”
Can Dreams Access the Records?
Short answer: Yes—sometimes. Leilani notes that many of us travel non-locally in sleep (think astral projection and multi-dimensional journeys). Your dream “library,” recurring guides, or symbolic downloads may be touchpoints with the same wisdom held in the Records.
Dreaming-mind takeaway:
Recurring symbols + strong emotions + consistent dream characters can signal threads worth following—especially when they feel instructive, loving, or clarifying rather than fearful or heavy.
Intuition = clear, clean, often simple knowing without heaviness.
A quick check: If the nudge to “grab the umbrella” carries no anxiety, it’s likely intuitive—guidance without the drama.
Past Lives, Patterns & Healing
Leilani often sees childhood imprints and past-life threads surface together in sessions. The point isn’t fate; it’s healing. When an old pattern resurfaces, the Records illuminate the when/where/why so you can release it now.
“Sessions bring what you need right now. It might be an age, a scene, a relationship—whatever unlocks healing in the present.”
What an Akashic Records Session Is Like (with Leilani)
Opening & Breath – Grounding and receptivity.
Energy Scan – Checking physical/energetic bodies for shifts needed.
Pathway Prayer – Spoken opening of your Records (using your birth name, current name, birth date, and birth location).
Channeling – Leilani shares what comes through until you’re ready with questions.
Healing – May include releasing imprints, addressing patterns, and (when guided) light language or light codes to move energy.
“I work as high as possible in Source frequency and trust what’s needed will come through.”
Light Language 101
Light language is a higher-frequency healing “language” (voiced, sung, gestured, coded) that shifts energy and supports transformation. Think of it as energetic technology for the soul.
Dimensions, Timelines & Manifestation (The Quantum Piece)
We talk about multiple realities and the feeling of “timeline shifts.” When your belief and energy align with a new possibility, your reality (and sometimes the people within it) can feel different—because you tuned to a new timeline.
Safety note: If you explore astral realms, practice spiritual hygiene and energetic protection.
Why the Records Now?
Humanity is shifting. The Records can help you:
Clarify life purpose and next steps
Heal ancestral & personal imprints
Strengthen intuition and self-trust
Align with possibilities you want to manifest
“Use your discernment and choose a practitioner who works with integrity.”

New narrative dream series: The House on Kodi Street
Upcoming horror mini-series: Straight From My Dreams: My Nightmares
If this conversation resonated, please share, subscribe, and leave a comment: What dream symbol keeps visiting you—and what do you feel it wants you to know?
This week on Positively Dreaming Podcast, I take you deep into my House on Kodi Street dream series—a collection of four powerful dreams that unfolded across a single week. Each dream builds on the last, weaving together themes of identity, memory, obstacles, and self-discovery.
Episode 1: The House
The series begins with a house—a classic dream symbol representing the self. In this dream, I enter with my son and a little girl, who I recognize as my inner child. Inside, themes of death, memory, and being remembered after passing unfold, reminding me that the house is the doorway to all the stories that followed.
Episode 2: The Gathering
At a convention, I notice I don’t have a name tag while everyone else does. This sparks a revelation: I don’t need to label myself or fit into one identity. A woman taking cookies symbolizes a confrontation with my negative self-talk and a push to reclaim what I deserve.
Episode 3: The Junkyard Bride
Here I encounter a bride in white, haunted by a reflection of a woman in black—an embodiment of negative inner voices. A collapsing litter box shows the danger of carrying too much alone, while a $50 chair reminds me of the passage of time in my 50s. Sorting through Doc Marten shoelaces and fishnets with an old friend reconnects me with my inner rebel and core strength.
Episode 4: The Forgotten Pages
In a bookstore overflowing with unreadable titles, a familiar dream guide urges me to “listen”—a message to pay attention to inner wisdom. The crying bride reappears, but the dark figure is gone. This symbolizes the release of negative self-talk and a newfound clarity.
What It All Means
The House on Kodi Street dreams remind me that our subconscious holds stories that can guide us if we take the time to record and reflect. Houses, fountains, cookies, chairs, and brides may sound ordinary, but within the dream world, they reveal layers of meaning about who we are and what we’re facing.
