Dream Interpretation: Giving Birth

I recently talked with a young woman who had dreamed of giving birth. She wondered what the dream interpretation for giving birth might be. By the way, she is not pregnant, therefore, the dream is not her psyche going through a dry run of the birth. Here is an excerpt from one interpretation I found online. Since I have had similar dreams over the years, after a day when I was excited about a new creative project, I am not surprised to see the following dream interpretation under “Birth:”

To dream of giving birth or see someone else giving birth, suggests that you are giving birth to a new idea or project. It also represents a new attitude, fresh beginnings or a major event. Alternatively, the dream may be calling attention to your inner child and the potential for you to grow. A more direct interpretation of this dream, may represent your desires/ anxieties of giving birth or the anticipation for such an event to occur.

Does the possible Confucius forehead lump mean he was from Lemuria?

Yesterday, I showed that, at least in one portrait, Confucius appeared to have a lump, or anyway something, on his forehead. Today I wonder:

Does the lump, if it is a lump, signifies that Confucius was from Lemuria in a past life, and whether the lump characteristic had continued in his physical makeup through reincarnation millennia after the demise of Lemuria, is anyone’s guess.

What do you think? Do you know if Confucius had a lump on his forehead? If so, do you think he was a Lemurian? Or, is this simply too outrageous for you?

Did Confucius have a lump on his forehead?

Portrait of Confucius, by Tang Dynasty artist Wu Daozi (680-740)

In response to the telephone call I received yesterday, I decided to do some research today. As I wrote in my post yesterday, my friend had said that she had just read a book about Lemuria saying that Lemurians had a lump on their forehead and that Confucius had a lump on his forehead. She thought this could indicate that Confucius had been a Lemurian in a past life.
Therefore, I wondered: Did Confucius really have a lump on his forehead? So, today I did a Google search for portraits of Confucius. This is difficult since Confucius was born in 551 B.C. and, according to the Wikipedia article, Confucius:

No contemporary painting or sculpture of Confucius survives, and it was only during the Han Dynasty that he was portrayed visually.
Wikipedia: Confucius

However, as you can see in the Wikipedia image on the left, it appears that Confucius did have something on his forehead, or anyway, he does in this image. This was the only online image of Confucius I found in which he seemed to have something on his forehead, by the way. There may be a tradition that Confucius had a lump on this forehead so that this Tang Dynasty artist made this image to show that characteristic about a thousand years after the death of Confucius.

Lemurians had a lump on their foreheads

Here’s something strange and interesting! A girlfriend telephoned me last night to say that she had just read a book on Lemuria. According to the book, Lemurians had a lump or bump on their foreheads. My friend thought that intriguing since, evidently, Confucius had a lump on his forehead. Was Confuscious descended from Lemurians?

Mayan Shamans give 2012 interviews

While filming the Yucatan Travel Movie: Cancun to Chichen Itza, I had the opportunity to interview a number of Mayan Shamans. These, and other, interviews will be the foundation of my October 26 PowerPoint Presentation at the Edgar Cayce Forum at Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E. in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

Do Mayan Shamans believe the world will end in 2012?

Here’s a description of my upcoming talk at the Edgar Cayce Forum on October 26, 2011 at Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E. in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

Do Mayan Shamans believe the world will end in 2012?

Carol Chapman wondered what the Maya had to say about 2012. After all, it is a Mayan prophecy that originated all the speculation about December 21, 2012. Were the modern-day Maya preparing for the end of the world? If so, were they afraid or fatalistic? Or, did they even know about the ancient Mayan prophecy? Could it be that all the media about 2012 was only an American phenomenon?

Therefore, while shooting video footage for the Yucatan Travel Movie: Cancun to Chichen Itza, she also interviewed every-day Maya and Mayan Shamans. These interviews became the nucleus of her upcoming presentation: Do Mayan Shamans believe the world will end in 2012? She will be giving her PowerPoint program at the Edgar Cayce Forum on Wednesday, October 26, 2011 at Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E. in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

Her presentation will include videotaped interviews, an explanation of the Maya’s fascinating and complicated calendar system, the actual ancient Mayan prophecy, as well as psychic revelations about the Maya from the trance readings of “the sleeping prophet” Edgar Cayce. For example, the Cayce Atlantis readings say that Atlanteans journeyed to Yucatan, the home of the Maya. Could the ancient Maya’s mathematical and astronomical prowess be the result of their Atlantis connection?

New Age metaphysical author and filmmaker Carol Chapman has traveled four times to the Yucatan and once to Egypt searching for indications that Atlanteans traveled to these locations. She used both her past life regression memories and the trance readings of the American seer Edgar Cayce to guide her explorations. She wrote of her adventures in When We Were Gods and Arrival of the Gods in Egypt.

Cyprus festival of the flood filmed by Atlantis researcher

Robert Sarmast is returning to Cyprus in his third attempt to locate the ruins of the lost city of Atlantis on the sea floor between Cyprus and Syria. Here’s an excerpt from the online Cyprus Mail article:

Sarmast said yesterday he wanted to be here for the Kataklysmos festival, or the ‘festival of the flood’. This will be held islandwide next weekend.

“The Kataklysmos festival is really about the great flood that sunk Atlantis, so it’s not surprising to me that the celebrations are unique to Cyprus,” said Sarmast.

Atlantis Hunt: A Third Attempt

Atlanteans visited Yucatan

I am fascinated by the concept that Atlanteans traveled to lands that presently exist. This means that, even though the lost city of Atlantis was destroyed by natural disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis, there could still be evidence of the lost continent of Atlantis in the places Atlanteans visited. Here’s an Edgar Cayce reading saying that Atlanteans traveled to what now called Yucatan:

“. . . In that land known as the Atlantean . . . When there was the journeying of many . . . To that portion of the sphere now known as Yucatan.”

I write about my experiences looking for evidence of Atlanteans in Yucatan in my book When We Were Gods.

Atlantis found in the Mediterranean off Cyprus

Whoopee!! Another “Atlantis found,” and the announcement comes so close after the “Atlantis found” in Spain earlier this year. This latest lost city of Atlantis is underwater in the Mediterranean Sea. The Famagusta Gazette proclaims that:

Explorer Robert Sarmast is returning to Cyprus today to film a television programme. In 2004 Sarmast claimed to have found the legendary city of Atlantis, saying that by using sonar scans he was able to find man-made walls that matched Plato’s description of the structures.

If somebody actually ever finds the real Atlantis, I will be soooo surprised!

Lately, I’ve been learning how to make both a Kindle and a Nook. It’s fun.
