Welcome to the Gathering Pod, the audio version of my weekly gathering room broadcast.

I'm Martha Beck.

I had an inspired night, and I wanted to tell you about it.

I wish I could see your faces and your bodies because I'd have you raise your hands to say whether this has happened to you.

You could always put it in the chat, but that's, yeah, that's kind of hard for me to read at the same time

and doing everything else. But I had a dream, a literal dream that was like the very first time

I ever did the gathering room from like from my ranch

in California. There were like three people there. I talked about this dream that I have quite often

and I wanted to know if anybody else has it. And the dream is that I'm just going through my house.

Sometimes it's the house I have now. Sometimes it's a house that I lived in a while ago. But in the dream,

I live there. And I've been going up and down a hallway past this little door for a long time. And I,

one day I just kind of go, oh, what's that door? Hmm. And in the dream, I opened the door of my house, and there's a whole space on the other side of the door.

And I go wandering around thinking, oh my God, like, I am very wealthy. Like, I live in a palace

with a cathedral. It's just, it's a really, it's a pleasing dream, but it also kind of gobsmacks

me. It's like, huh, huh. Now, I have talked to many other people who have had a dream like this or very close to it. And I actually think, I mean, I went so far as to actually look it up online. Now, usually, I use my own form of dream analysis, which is to become, you pretend that

you are whatever's in the dream. So I become my house in the dream. And you kind of do a little

play acting where you say, okay, now I'm going to pretend to be a house. I'm a house and you

start to describe yourself. I'm Martha's house in the dream.

And I am deceptively uninteresting. I am ordinary looking. I am hiding things that are very fun.

And then I'd say, well, what's the message that the dream symbol has

for the dreamer? So I am Martha's house and what I'm here to tell Martha is, there's always something

they're here to tell you. Keep opening doors. You're going to find stuff. So I, it actually
