The Mind at Night: The New Science of How and Why We Dream

Psychologists and philosophers have long grappled with the mysteries of dreaming, and now-thanks largely to recent innovations in brain imaging -neuroscientists are starting to join the conversation. In this groundbreaking book, award-winning journalist Andrea Rock traces the brief but fascinating history of this emerging field. She then takes us into modern sleep labs across the country, asking the questions that intrigue us all: Why do we remember only a fraction of our dreams? Why are dreams usually accompanied by intense emotions? Can dreams truly spark creative thought or help solve problems? Are the universal dream interpretations of Freud and Jung valid? Accessible and engaging, The Mind at Night shines a bright light on our nocturnal journeys and tells us what the sleeping mind reveals about our waking hours.

How to Interpret Career-Related Dreams

Dreams often guide us into new directions, but you have to listen to them. And you have to take action.

People often dream of new careers. Have you ever found yourself doing work in a dream that you have never done in real life? That could be a clue (or a warning, if it was something you did not like).

Most often, though, the direction is more subtle. You may awaken with a feeling of pride or achievement, a sense that something good awaits you, or just a vague feeling of hope or happiness. It is up to you to decide how to interpret those feelings.

So even if you have never dreamed of, for example, becoming a Registered Tax Return Preparer, that may still be that career of your dreams. It helps to be open to pursuing new ideas, and now is a great time to learn more about the possibilities.

After all, everyone has to file income taxes, and as rules and returns become more complex, more good tax preparers are needed every year. Even if you just want a part-time job during tax season, becoming a paid tax preparer may be just the answer to your dreams.

New IRS requirements for paid tax preparers took effect in January 2011. So even if you have been a paid tax preparer in the past, you will have to study to pass the new IRS tax preparer exams. But there are some great courses and guides that help you prepare for the tax preparer exam.

And once you have your tax preparer certification, you are ready for a career of getting paid for helping people, a career you can take pride in. It could very well be the career of your dreams.

So whatever you dream of, always be open to the possibilities. You may find an even bigger dream that will surprise and reward you, like being a registered tax preparer.

More on Phantom Doorbell Dreams

This is an update on the topic of phantom doorbell dresms.

I had been waiting several days for a package from Amazon and worried about receiving it. Normally I have packages delivered to the post office, but it’s half an hour away, so I let this one be delivered at home, because I planned to be here.

It was several days late. I kept checking the front door several times a day, because the postal delivery person just tosses things on the doorstep and never rings the bell. I had checked Amazon’s tracking which said the package had finally reached my city, but I figured it would be at least another day or so before it got out to my neighborhood.

Working away on my computer in mid afternoon, I suddenly heard a very soft phantom doorbell. (My real doorbell is quite loud.) So I want to look, and there was the package.

Whatever these phantom doorbells are, I do believe their are trying to tell us something.
