Dreaming the Dreamer, a deep immersion into the ”ocean of dreams" is a diploma series that seeks to expand the potential of dreaming as a means to expand self-knowledge and personal growth. Modern psychology has produced several schools and models for dreamwork; techniques used mainly in Gestalt, client-centred, and family therapy. Elaborated theories with manuals for dream interpretation are seldom available in mainstream therapeutic schools, however, suggesting that dreams play a lesser role in these therapies than they do in psychoanalysis.

Carlos, an active dreamer from a very early age, has designed this series in response to his many students' requests for a way to explore, even more deeply, the world of dreams; a way to tap what is an extraordinary resource and, perhaps, find a developmental path as exciting as Ontogony’s original vision. We are explorers and adventurers, and dreaming is one of the most intriguing and potentially beneficial areas of exploration in the human experience. Dreamwork can open doors of wisdom and understanding regarding:

• Module One: Dream Interpretation

Explore dream interpretation with the goal of learning to unify the wakeful and non-wakeful states. In unifying non-wakeful and waking "reality," you bring closer the possibility of transcendent joy. Dreams are existential messages, and when we start to understand the oneiric language of dreams, their integrative value can be immense. Every character and every object in a dream represents an aspect of ourselves.

• Module Two: Dreamwork from a Jungian Perspective

Discover various methods of the Jungian approach to working with dreams. His work provides a very practical modern "mythology." Understanding the basic paradigms and learning to use them leads us to our own "personal myths" and our journey of self-discovery, for which the dreaming process holds many useful clues.

• Module Three: Dreamwork through Kabbalah 

This series introduces the fascinating world of the Kabbalah, exploring practical applications for our dreaming and our lives. Learn how developing a Kabbalistic dream practice can accelerate the development of transformative and intuitive powers—practices once known and used by ancient prophets, seers, and sages.

• Module Four: Psychic Dreams and Astral Projection

Discover how accessing the worlds of dreaming, psychism & (OBE) opens up extraordinary possibilities and brings benefits throughout our lives. Dreams not only offer a door to our psychic selves; they can be a secret source of vital energy, reminding us of our passion and the joy of life. Lucid dreaming, moreover, empowers the psychic aspect of ourselves, developing our abilities and allowing us to explore different universes and have out-of-body experiences.

• Module Five: Dreams of Vision and Prophecy

This final program in our series addresses the spiritual aspects of dreamwork and, specifically, some of the techniques for spiritual awakening, which is also known as spiritual enlightenment. Spiritual awakening is literally waking up from a trance state of consciousness. It is sometimes described as being "awake within the dream that we call reality—the world of form."

Teachings are further complemented by experiential online group practices helping to ignite and/or expand your connection to Dreamwork. Whether you are new to the Ontogony Teachings, or you are an advanced practitioner in the world of dreaming, this five-part series is designed to strengthen your bridge to the unconscious, illuminating and furthering the course of your journey.
