Also urban shamanism and setting sacred space. Our guest today is Andrusa Lawson of Divine by Design. Dreams like myths can be regarded as stories that are not true but that say something true. The essence of setting a sacred space being intentional and finding a common sense of meaning. Andrusa recommends enlisting various people in the group to take turns setting the space.
We also speak about non-verbal communication in dreamwork and traditional indigenous oral storytelling. We then speak about the power of urban spirits and dreams of city places.
We take several questions from Max including what specific filters Andrusa uses to keep his dreamtime sacred. We end by speaking about Andrusa’s ideas about karmaless action.
BIO: Andrusa Lawson, Vice president and creative director of Divine by Design, is a dream worker exploring the process of committing the innate wisdom of dreaming into communal memory, the ability of stories to cross cultural barriers, and the unique medicine that oral traditions represent for people whose voices have been historically silenced.
