"Central Ink is both absorbing and challenging as it carries the reader through the author's journey of self discovery. I found myself reviewing old dreams with a new perspective as I saw with delight the marvelous interconnections Marica Lewton was able to make between her dreams, her writing, her drawing, and her life. Dream work comes alive through this personal approach which demonstrates the value of dream messages for one's life. A much needed addition to dream literature. "

"Marcia Lewton takes us to the fertile heartland of the dream world. These finely crafted and illustrated stories drawn from her personal work with dreams bring vibrantly alive the reality of soul and healing in the modern world."

In Central Ink Marica Lewton follows a series of 68 dreams in a narrative using a number of her own poems, stories and pictures to demonstrate how dream work carried her through two deaths and several other losses. In addition to instructing the reader in ways to work with dreams, she tells her own soul story in an engaging and often humorous way. Each piece of creative work is related to a dream, showing clearly how the well of creativity can be drawn on through dreams, and how paying attention to dreams by drawing or writing about them inspires further dreams in an ever-flowing steam.

The instructions to readers are easy to follow and should provide inspiration for anyone who wants to begin this fascinating approach to soul development.

Power is a force that permeates the life of anyone on the journey toward perceptual freedom. It is a topic that also permeates literature on how to follow the Toltec tradition. But nowhere has Power been dealt with in such a singular and straightforward fashion by an everyday warrior/sorcerer who has made the journey of perceptual freedom the driving force of her life. Approaching the subject of Power in such a direct fashion in order for the reader to do the same is the aim of Encounter with Power. A Journey from the Toltec Perspective.

Because every warrior/sorcerer encounters Power without fail, the trick is in recognizing who, what, where, when and how to deal with this force when it shows itself. The fact that Power becomes evident can easily become eclipsed by its slippery, seductive nature and the oftentimes tumultuous impact it can have on the life of the warrior/sorcerer. Making decisions and taking action therefore become imperative. How then does the warrior/sorcerer proceed.

How the warrior/sorcerer takes on Power as a bona fide opponent that needs to be challenged, defeated, and then commanded at will, is at the heart of this book. Encounter with Power: A Journey from the Toltec Perspective is the chronicle of one woman's experience of challenging Power head on. The challenge to do the same subsequently transfers to the reader. An invitation to action is woven throughout the book and is designed to propel the reader into their own definitive encounter with Power.

I think you will find this is not just another dream book since it includes some unique ideas as well as older views regarding the why and what of a dream. Over the years I have read many books offering a variety of ideas and theories on the subject, plus I took a thought provoking “dream study course” through the Edgar Cayce foundation. I will show you a simple way to outline and analyze your dream and help others if the need arises. It is not only fun to do, but it can often be very beneficial. I have included thirty-four of my personal dreams with their interpretations as examples. They cover a variety of subjects from spiritual to spooky and all the in-between.

As you know, dreams can be a puzzle to solve especially when they contain a strange assortment of things and people. However, when you learn how to “connect the dots” it will help you solve the “puzzle.”

Look inside for an easier way to analyze your “sleeping thoughts” plus a brief section on possible symbolic meanings. Happy dreaming!

Part I

The purpose of this part of the monograph is to discuss the hypnotic response and to present two methods for achieving it.

Part II

The purpose of this part of the monograph is to outline an extremely effective procedure for obtaining self-control through the use of tape recordings which you can easily make yourself.

This part of the monograph contains a new idea; for although the idea of giving commands to oneself directly without the formal use of hypnosis goes back at least to Coué (c. 1920), and no doubt much farther, a careful search of the literature seems to indicate that the idea of programming (by means of the repeated use of a recording) the subconscious mind to respond directly to arbitrary commands from the conscious mind is original with the author and consistent with the conclusions of other researchers. His method helps a person realize his or her potential in what appears to be an innate ability.

“Reading Mind Leap was one of the most delightful experiences of my summer. First, I found it an absolutely intriguing story of personal challenge and human relationships. But second, and most important, I found it highly inspiring. There are many times in my own spiritual journey that I wonder whether it is all worth the effort – whether there really is a greater reality. This book is a powerful incentive to keep going, an inspiration and a source of hope!”

We hear “follow a path with heart”...“listen to your dreams”...“open to spirit”... But rare is the book that actually takes us far into that experience. Mind Leap does so by telling a challenging, liberating, true story from the consciousness revolution, and inviting readers to participate by reviewing their own life events and perceptions.

A novelist couldn’t create spiritual explorers more opposite than Kelly and David: growing up the psychic daughter of an abusive alcoholic and mystic son of an activist minister. But as young adults with other partners, dreams and intuitions pointed each other out, hinting of the “natural bridge” they would form together. As they were then tested in a crucible of intersecting lives, Moita began to speak through Kelly, initiating an “experiment in communication between worlds”. Her over 200 interactive sessions, shared with hundreds of participants, have been compared to the Seth material.

Mind Leap reveals the hidden workings of spirit that connect us to people and situations we need to grow in strength, freedom and love. The narrative unfolds on many levels, giving a unique inside view of the channeling phenomenon even as the prophetic messages turn from individuals to the crisis/transformation of our Earth.

“We see you all the time, are near you, yet very rarely can touch, for you do not see us. For you, we are merely a whisper in the trees... We have watched for a great many years, and now there is a drawing together of worlds, a time when the two worlds may touch and not be destroyed by each other, when they may integrate and understand. The coming together of our worlds will not change just yours, but mine. Life will never be the same again.”

As might be expected, the inspiration for this introduction came to me in a dream. Now, finally, I know the book is complete. It represents a long tenacious labor of many small quiet moments collected into a form that I hope you will enjoy.

The text holds all the dreams (::) that I have written down. I began that recording process in the spring of 1981 at the age of 22. They span from my fourth year up to my forty-fifth, 1963 to 2004. These are actual nocturnal visions that were given to me in sleep. I have polished on them intensely all spring and feel that they have become a worthy set of image poems.

The ink drawings (>>) were done while awake. They are grouped to improve the flow of reading. Those sections do mark the moment in time of their actual public showings. Interspersing each of them into its chronological place would not do justice to the hundreds of other things that I have doodled and failed to capture.

In total they present the story of a life. The narration and art are only (mostly) from the usually silent unconscious. Mundane events and needs have caused large gaps in the time-line. This work can be seen as a true novel or as an odd autobiography. Each entry is a crumb from my dreaming mind. I welcome you to the feast.
