    What a beautiful dream, Ellema! It made me wonder if you’d read “Kabbalah and the Power of Dreaming” by Catherine Shainberg (a student of the Israeli Kabbalist, Colette Béatrice Aboulker-Muscat). Thanks to my *ADHD-ness*, I’ve only managed to skim books by Shainberg and Aboulker-Muscat, but some of their exercises have brought my dreams alive.

    Hello from Virginia in the SF Bay Area. I began learning Kabbalah in 1980 (even before it was cool!). Since then, I’ve studied online at Chabad.org, Kabbalah.info, and Kabbalahonline.org websites. Right now, I’m learning a chapter a day of Rambam’s Mishna Torah on the Chabad site. All this exploration began as strong attraction to Judaism.

    I was born into a Protestant home and later converted to Catholicism at 16. I believe the conversion was my longing for a closeness to God I didn’t experience in my parent’s Methodist/Episcopal religions. Catholicism also failed to satisfy that longing, as nothing did until I met my first Kabbalist. He introduced me to the beauty and mystery of Torah that’s delighted my mind and heart ever since.

    Unfortunately, I am also blessed with ADHD (which you might have guessed already). I signed up for this course in October, but I’m just introducing myself today… sigh…
