Hey guys..

I have talked to many Loreena's fans in the past who have dreamt of Loreena..

Personally I have heard many times in my dreams the Courtyard Lullaby and once I have dreamt of dancing the Santiago somewhere in a forest.. I think I have seen (but not sure) Loreena from far distance though... Well I love those dreams..so mysterius..

I think that Loreena's music touches so much our souls that can be part of our dreams. Elements of her lyrics are mixed in our subconsius side...

I have had some pretty...ummmm...interesting dreams about Loreena! One was she had come to my hometown on tour, and my buddy the other Alex Herbert and I were part of our school's online tv station (VC Time), and we both interviewed her at the same time! Another one, last night's, was at the Vancouver Olympics, where she not only performed in the opening ceremonies, but participated in one of the snowboarding competitions and won gold ! Strange...

Thank YOU Rossin for the links!!!
I enjoyed her music and loved the lyrics!!!
I now have to add her to my cd collection!!!
Yes, you are correct about that bridge where my spirit guides and I meet. I would like to cross that bridge more often to learn about the other side to enhance my life here.
If you decide to contact her again, please let her know she has another fan.
Blessings from here and there,
Gina

Dear Gina! Yes i found a link to this song and i'm posting it below.
About what you say about your dreams affecting your daily life: my feeling is that this probably means that you have a solid "bridge" established that connects these two realms--something i strive for-a long terms work...
They say, a grain of awareness from the day durring dream, and vice versa makes a 'solid' bridge little by little. A passeage that can let unexplored faculties of us surface...

Here i post to you, or any friend who would like to listen to it, this song with the dream phrase. The singer is a very talanted poet called Bret Crain. Her range of creativity is wide: from satirical poetry, through extravagant lyricism to sort of post modern electronic surrealism. song:
H u r r i c a n e

we used to write emails from time to time before and i haven't spoken to her for some time but i found these samples of her music here:

Hi 8R8!!!

How true your friends words are and I thank you for sharing them with us. My most vibrant dreams affect me the most that inhance my life and growth. Do you have any of your friends' songs recorded? Is there any way we can hear them?

I wonder if Loreena dreams about her fans? Do they freighten her or do they support her or does she even dream of her fans?

She definately represents different aspects to us that influences our lives for the better and it plays out in our dreams for us to learn even more of ourselves and our world. I have dreampt of Ann and Nancy Wilson (Heart) once and the dream didn't amount to much. No other public figure has influenced my dreams as Loreena has had. WHAT A WOMAN!!!

With all these interesting beings here this place is very inspiring! Thank you for the chance of being here

As for dreaming Loreena,
sometime ago i dreamt with Loreena. When i saw her i sneaked closer to her (hehe) to enjoy her
company. But then she turned at me and looked with eyes of PURPOSE, and emergency and let out a most piercing scream.
I have no problem with knowing directly what this all means: it meant "no time for too much indulging, you indulge too much and the spirit always recedes if one neglects it...act light and consistent and in silence, cut the constant postponning that makes us lazy and heavy and turn in circles...".

So that was my Loreena dream I felt she could tell these things in dream directly as in real life through her public person she tells such things in a subtle ways inbetween the lines...

So i try and take care of the spirit, through be alert of putting affection and gratitude in my words-in this instance...

Gina, i find insight in your questions too: they urge one to be aware in dream. In all sincerity i have very short awareness time in dream and need an simple and orderly awaken time in terms to be fully aware of my feelings in dream.
I had once a friend and she was writing these ongs, and one line said: "all it takes is a dream to awaken from your slumber"
time for practice

It happened again last night, or shall I say early this morning. I had my third dream with Loreena.
I was on a bus with 2 other friends to a hotel for a weekend vacation. Sharon started singing Annachie Gordon and we all joined in. Sharon sounded exactly like Loreena. In real life, her voice is very different, still she has a beautiful voice.
We reach the rustic hotel and we were dressed in late 1900's dresses; yet it was not in that era. We were carrying carpet bags and we walked up to the regristration desk and Loreena stepped up to us and checked us in.
She was a lot shorter that real life, still, very sweet. All of a sudden I realized my dress was on backwards and my big collar was getting in my face.
It was my turn to check in and I said, "It's Cheyenne Rivers!" I thought, no it isn't you know it isn't Cheyenne Rivers, you know perfectly well who it is. For the life of me I couldn't say Loreena McKennitt. I kept saying Cheyenne Rivers, who is the main character in my book. I apologized profusely. She didn't mind at all. My friends left me.
Finally I was able to say, "I am honored to meet you Loreena. I have to tell how much your music means to me and how it moves me." She replied, "Please sign here." I looked at the paper she placed on the counter and didn't see the place to sign my name, so I asked, "Here?"
"That looks like a good place," she replied.
I walked around the side of the desk and I turned to her and asked if I could have a hug and "The Mummer's Dance" started playing and she looked up at the ceiling startled to hear one of her songs. It was as if she didn't know she knew of the song at all. "Yes," I reassured her, "It is your song, one of your best loved songs throughout the world."
I hugged her anyways then she hugged back and we stayed for several minutes. I felt this warm, compassionate, love enimating from her. That song ended and "She Moved Through the Fair" started playing and she said in her gentle voice, "You are ethereal,"
"I've heard that word before, but what do you mean?"
She didn't answer. She went to clean the bar. I went to find the restroom without any luck. I ended up outside with all the excited of recieving a hug from Loreena and her calling me ethereal and not knowing exactly what she meant.
I woke up not finding the restroom, the bus or my friends, but very happy to know there is something more to me then I knew yesterday.
Thanks again, Loreena!!!

Lady Deirdre,

To help decifer your dream may I ask:
What emotions did you have before, during, and after the dream?
What changed after you had the dream?
Have you had any more since?
How close are you to the faeries?
So far it sounds like it is a blessing of how special you are to this Earth, that your gifts are not taken for granted and you are loved.
The feelings you have for Loreena have been reflected back to you.
I hope that helps.
Blessings of Beauty,
Gina

It seems a bit weird to tell people on a forumn about your dreams...especially if they involve someone like Loreena...but here it goes...

I was walking in the forest, and i heard the first part of the beltane fire dance---u know, the part with the drums---and i tripped and fell and landed in a faery ring...the faery queen happened to be Loreena...weird eh? well, all i remember is that she threw dust in my face and i woke up...it wasnt in a mean way, just like faery dust or something...the magic kind... it was pretty cool...i dont remember all of it, but that is the part that stuck out in my mind...

try to give that some meaning!

Many thanks Zefiro and Mihalis!!! The dream makes more sense now looking back at where I was and where I am today. I could still use more wisdom, a lot more.
Loreena's songs are part of my growth. The first snow fell this morning as it gives me peace in my heart and soul. Many thanks goes to you too Loreena.

Usually I am participating in the dream, this one was watching from afar. As I sat in the audience, I watched a play on stage. There were a circle of kids sitting around Loreena as she sat in a chair telling them of a story. Then the dream went into real life as a train went past me as I was still in my chair. Loreena was on the train continuing the story to the kids. The play ended with them back on stage as in the beginning. I have no idea of the story which was told, I just felt her compassion for the kids and senerity in which she spoke.

Anyone care to decifer?

Well dreaming of kids as far as I know is happiness !

Loreena telling stories may show wisdom ...

I think we all could be the kids of the dream that listen to the stories which actually are the Loreena's songs...

..and the train and generally a moving vehicle as far as i know means progress generally that something goes on,continues...

Loreena tell us stories in a new album that continues her glorious career ..

Oh now I got it..

Well I could get seriusly myths about dreams but noway about cards...

"tarots" mean??

I listened from someone here that the dreams of Monday,Wednesday,Friday and Sunday refer to you (i.e the person who dreams) whereas Tuesdays, Thirsdays and Saturdays the dream refers to the other (maybe the participant of your dream)

Another belief I heard is that the dreams of Friday, always become true...I dont know...
