Desert

A 'Desert' in a dream represents an inability to use the subconscious mind in a productive way. In the Universal Language of the Mind, earth represents the subconscious mind. The subconscious mind is like fertile soil -- when you plant seed thoughts into it through visualization and focused intention, those thoughts grow and manifest into your reality. A desert, however, is barren earth. Nothing grows there. The soil exists, but it is dry, lifeless, and unproductive. This reflects a condition where you have a subconscious mind -- everyone does -- but you are not using it effectively. You are not planting seed thoughts through visualization. You are not nurturing those seeds with attention and emotion. Your subconscious mind is vast and powerful, but without conscious direction, it lies dormant like a desert. Pay attention to the conditions within the desert. Is it scorching hot, reflecting an intensity that is burning away any potential for growth? Are you lost in the desert, indicating confusion about how to use your inner mind? Is there an oasis, suggesting that there is still a source of productive subconscious activity within the barren landscape? When a desert shows up in your dream, it is an urgent call to begin using your subconscious mind productively. Start visualizing your desires. Practice the Top 10 Most Wanted Desires list. Plant seeds of intention and water them with your daily attention. The subconscious mind is incredibly powerful and is always ready to manifest -- but it needs you, the conscious mind, to provide the direction.
