Listen now!! Dreaming on certain days like birthdays and anniversaries can have special significance. For centuries, it has been thought that dreams between the Christian holidays of Christmas and Epiphany were especially propitious. Our guest, Susanne van Doorn, talks about what to look for in these Holy Night Dreams.
#TheDreamJournal is hosted by Katherine Bell, founder of Experiential Dreamwork

This podcast delves into the fascinating tradition of the 12 Holy Nights, the sacred period between December 25 and January 6, known for its spiritual significance in dreaming. Susanne van Doorn, who has been leading online dream adventures on Mindfunda for over 15 years, offers insights into dream incubation, group dreaming, and how these practices come together in her annual Holy Night Event. This year’s theme, Guided by the Star, reinterprets the Christmas story as a Jungian journey of self-discovery, fostering a deeper connection between the earthly and the spiritual.

In Susanne’s Holy Nights journey, each day corresponds to a different month of the upcoming year, with each day attributed to a specific spiritual initiation. Here is the spiritual path for this year’s journey:
