The Woman Who Dreams Herself

A Guide for Awakening the Feminine

by Pamela A. Field

 

This book is a combination of discoveries made during fifteen years of leading women's workshops, patterns observed while offering hundreds of individual healing sessions and a personal exploration of the feminine. The Woman Who Dreams Herself is a guide for understanding and awakening the feminine to restore a much needed balance on an individual, societal and planetary level. A grandmother of the Seneca nation explains that one of their prophecies urge us to: "Heal the women. Then the women can assist with healing the men, and together they can heal the earth.”

The purpose of this book is to contribute toward healing the women .

Book Synopsis

Women's role in society has shifted throughout history, weaving its way in and out of the public eye. There exist however, certain periods of time during which it has taken on greater significance. Two such periods in recent history are the suffragette movement beginning in the mid-1800's and the feminist movement beginning in the 1960's. I believe that the present times mark yet another significant period for women. This is the main focus of my book.

The Woman Who Dreams Herself is divided into four sections (apart from the introduction, conclusion and bibliography). The first section is called “ The Times. ” This section explores different native prophecies, scientific discoveries and earth changes, which emphasize the importance of the present times and specifically, the need for the feminine.

The second section is called, “ What prevents us from dreaming ourselves ?” This section explores many factors that hinder the awakening of women's hidden potential. It focuses on erroneous definitions of femininity, inherited and outdated belief systems, women's unconscious fear of their feminine power and the urgent need to heal pending issues inherited from our matriarchal lineages.

The third section is called “ What will enable us to dream ourselves ?” Marianne Williamson says, “we are wired for something we don't know how to access.” The purpose of this section is to clarify what these hidden potentials are and to awaken them within us.

The fourth section is called, “Tools for Dreaming Yourself.” The “tools” provided in this section are meant to support any discoveries made while reading, so that they may result in noticeable healing and transformation. This section offers a variety of ceremonies, exercises, strategies, suggestions and creative projects from different cultures.

The book's style is intimate and easy to read. It includes photos, poems, short stories and anecdotes. My purpose for writing this book is that it might serve as a guide for women's gatherings.
