dream (up rickety staircase, down in elevator) / frustration w/ too heavenly minded for earthly good

[belenen]

Last night I dreamed of a place I've been at least twice before in dreams: a VERY tall house (I've never seen the ceiling) with an open, windowed side allowing a balcony on every level of the house. Like before, there was a staircase twisting up and up through open air. (like a cross between this, this, and this) I climbed and climbed and felt I

I've had similar dreams and, in fact, was thinking of writing about it for my entry. Great minds think alike!

Creating a group that tailors to both spirituality and social justice sounds amazing, fresh, and jittery (for lack of a better word). The idea sounds unheard of but I'm sure you're not alone!

I like your dream analysis.
I'm wondering at you have the stairs and the elevator if it doesn't mean that you need to get things separated. One for your spiritual grows only and one for doing your Earth good, like walking two paths at the same time.

hmm, for me the key to interpretation is how things feel -- if I was happily walking up and riding down I'd agree with you but the fact that I felt like I needed to warn people of danger makes me think that it's pointing at a different goal.

[crazypuce]

Yes, true, that's a big factor.

I really hope you're able to find a group (or maybe even take the step to start your own) that fulfils the need your dream is telling you is there. Good luck!

thanks! I hope so too!
