Enlightenment

'Enlightenment' in a dream represents the process of creating more awareness within your mind. The word itself contains the meaning -- to bring light within. Light in the Universal Language of the Mind represents awareness. Enlightenment, then, is the act of increasing the light -- increasing what you can see, perceive, and understand about yourself and the nature of your existence. When enlightenment appears in your dream, it is reflecting your active engagement in the process of expanding your consciousness. You are creating more awareness within yourself through your spiritual practices, your self-reflection, your dream work, and your willingness to look honestly at who you are. This is the purpose of your entire existence -- to create more awareness, to know yourself more deeply, to expand the light within your mind until it illuminates every corner of your consciousness. When this symbol shows up, it is both an affirmation and an encouragement. You are on the path. Continue the work. Every exercise you practice, every dream you interpret, every thought you bring under conscious control adds more light to your inner world.
