TRANSFORMATION IN THE STORM

______________

Dublin, summer 1998

The rice was on the stove. Cassandra poured herself a cup of coffee and wondered whether she would be eating on her own again today, or if Oscar would care to join her. He was still fast asleep in his studio’s bed. In his dream, he was roaming the streets of a city which looked like Dublin. But its perspective was all over the place. It was more like a surrealist painting. The colours were vivid, like those peyote-fuelled, shamanic visions he had in his twenties, and which had inspired much of his early artwork. Cassandra walked beside him in the dream, holding his hand. She wore a flowing white robe and was blindfolded. Her presence was almost ghostly: one moment he could touch her and see her, the next she had disappeared.

Looking to find her, he saw that the city itself was disappearing. The environment was blotted out by a darkness which had spread across it like an oil stain. He was lost and had no option but to remind himself that he was dreaming. Accomplished as he was in shamanic dream-work, it took him a few seconds to transport himself into another dream.

This time the scenery was apocalyptic and desolate. A long empty road stretched ahead of him. There was a large city in the distance. As he approached its gate, it looked as if its buildings were reduced to shells by an explosion. He was alone in this world, and one of the few survivors. He would have to find someone and rebuild everything. The temperature was scorching and he felt sweaty and uncomfortable. He looked up to the sky. Two suns were shining above him. The sight was mesmerising and calming.

He woke up suddenly and reached for his diary. We zoomed in to see the details of his entry. He described and analysed the events and objects in the dream. The symbols were clear to him: the two suns represented the Light shone by the male and female aspects of his psyche. When he had let go of the outer female aspect represented by Cassandra’s indistinct presence in the dream, he felt lost. Despite his insecurities, he embraced his new condition and continued on his way along the path. Then he reached the debris of the city, which signified his now-defunct old thought-system. The Light of both his own inner suns - the animus and the anima - had made him wake up. He was satisfied with his analysis and went back to sleep.

We wished we could warn Cassandra that it was time for Oscar to go solo. That was the gist of the dream he had interpreted so accurately. For all her knowledge and intuition, she didn’t see it coming. To her, the kind of love she shared with Oscar was forever. She had forgotten about one of the main dynamics in Twin Flame relationships: once you have learnt to gaze at your Soul’s reflection in your lover’s eyes, you have to find the Seat of your Soul in yourself.
