Dreaming Myself, Dreaming a Town

by Susan M. Watkins, George Rhoads (Illustrator)

The story of Sue Watkins' astounding dream project, in which the dreams of residents of the small town of Dundee, NY, were collected, examined and correlated with daily events. The results of the project included literally amazing revelations, synchronicities and coincidences, as well as a steady flow of precognitive dreams. Several people, for example, would have the same or similar dreams, often with powerful emotional content, and often prior to an event happening, and those dreams would then come true. There seemed to be a definite interweaving between the town s dream life, waking life and emotional life. Town residents often reported intense vivid dreams of the dead, or recollections of what they felt might be past lives , or dreams that demonstrated psychic abilities on the part of ordinary people.
The implications of this book are nothing less then staggering. It contains essential information for anyone who wants to understand themselves and their greater reality. It points firmly to the hypothesis that there is some sort of incredible order and connection between daily events and our dreams. Also it shows that the average person possesses so called psychic abilities, and that these are a normal and important function in our daily lives. Further, it leads inevitably to the conclusion that this incredible connection between dreams and daily life is happening not just in Dundee, NY, but in every town and city throughout the world, and ALL the time.
