CHAPTER 1
Introduction

THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS

Climbing through the mirror,
I enter the land of magic
Dreamscapes.

I dive down through the tunnel
Of life, the cave of dreams
into my dreamtime.
Colours of the rainbow,
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue
The colour purple takes me through.
A world of colours, mists
Frightening and exciting, swirls around.

In a garden the roses are blue
Alice painted them and the queen
Angry, wants to chop off her head.
She shrinks, as I become Alice
Looking for the key
To take me through
The doorway of reality.

They will not all want to be writers. Some will want to express in music and dance which is your way of expressing joy which so puzzles you. It is not from this lifetime that you wish to do so, but from a lifetime long ago, in fact many lifetimes. That is why the doctor picked up on this when you were a child and thought you could never walk again. He knew you would dance again. His message to you, `..one foot then the other foot..', is a powerful invocation with it you overcame that trial and you can use it for other challenges also.

Back to creativity, the first thing you must learn to do is to raise your vibration. This is done by meditation in most cases, though some people are still able to do so by other means or spontaneously when they are in a state of joy. This is why
you must be as a little child. They are always in a state of grace and therefore are expressing joy all the time.

So how to increase the vibration. You know that meditation is the first key. You must reach the quiet place within the pool of deep reflection. To still the mind - that is the problem. One way is with music, the New Age music or music of nature, bird calls whale sounds, the song of the sea, the gentle sounds. Another way is to practice the raising of the
