Dream Sharing online is just beginning to open
up from a few streams of dedicated dreamworkers into an alluvial fan for all
dreamers. The explosion of free Internet Mail Lists now provide the resources
for small, intimate groups of people wishing to share dreams, as well as
communication groups for teenagers, lucid dreamers, psi dreaming and a host of
other dream related activities.
Unlike postal mail lists or lists where advertisers get your name, these Net
Mail Lists are both useful and available only if you subscribe by sending in an
e-mail request.
Electronic Mail Lists (what I will be calling eLists) are a simple way to
communicate with a group of people with a common interest through e-mail. On
eLists, one subscribes and unsubscribes at will. A special common e-mail address
is used by the subscriber and all mail sent to that address will end up in
everyones' e-mail box that is subscribed to the group.
What?
An image. Normal e-mail is like a circle of individuals. With e-mail, the
message is like a ball that someone makes and tosses to someone else in the
circle. Each person in the circle is an Internet e-mail address. Now imagine we
add a Magician to the group who duplicates the message balls s/he receives. The
Magician is the eList address. In this instance, let's say this person is the
list name address for the eList discussion group called "Dreaming in Later
Life." Every time you throw this eList Magician a ball, s/he will duplicate
the ball and throw it to everyone that is signed up on the "Dreaming in
Later Life" discussion list. The overall effect is that a group discussion
over days, weeks or months can take place between individuals located all over
the globe.
Internet eLists used to be the haunt an eLite few who had special deals with
their Internet Service Providers (ISPs). The lists were a nightmare to maintain
for the host/owner and required continually changing scripts and parameters
though coded messages to the server. These lists still exist and are great for
those who like to have a lot of control over the options available to the
subscribers, but the new free eLists have made all this very simple and
automatic. Just like the new sites that offer free e-mail, the eLists sites
allow the list owner to create a discussion list in minutes.
Here are a few places you can start your own free eList:
CoolList http://www.coollist.com/
eGroups http://www.egroups.com/
Listbot http://www.listbot.com/
Netscape WebSite http://www.websitepostoffice.com/
VPMail http://www.list.to/
Now perhaps you don't have time to start your own dreamgroup, but would like
to find people with lists that are doing and discussing topics that interest
you. Here is a quick list of some of the older eLists and a quick view on some
of the newer ones that have popped up this year.
List Name: dream-flow@lists.best.com
Sponsor: Electric Dreams and DreamGate
Subscription: http://www.dreamgate.com/dream/temple/
The DREAM-FLOW mail list is a way to circulate dreams and their meanings
around the Internet. Dreams flow into the list from a variety of sources,
including Usenet Newsgroups, Electric Dreams subscribers, dream-flow list
subscribers and the Dream Temple, a Web form for sending dreams.
Dream texts coming into dream-flow are considered as freely given, yet
anonymous creations that cross the boundaries of sleep and waking, personal and
transpersonal, born and unborn, created and found, and many other boundaries.
These dreams are seen as having at least as much status an any literary genre
or text, and the comments and interpretations are also seen as having at least
the same status as literary criticism, philosophical or metaphysical exegesis.
All dreams and comments are published monthly on Electric Dreams, which is
freely distributed throughout the Net.

List name: The DreamWheels
Sponsor: Electric-Dreams and DreamGate
Subscription: send request to Richard Wilkerson email: rcwilk@dreamgate.com
or Diane Email: diane@mail.cape-may.county.lib.nj.us
The Electric Dreams Dream Wheels are dream groups via email. Generally they
are 6-12 people who take turns exploring one another's dreams. The basic format
of the group involves first asking questions then having each person take the
dream as if it were his or her own and commenting. This non-defensive style was
developed online by John Herbert and is very easy to learn, yet insightful and
delightful for all participants.

Don't worry, it's a friendly list, we won't try to criticize or over-interpret

Dreamers [English] [For People Over 10]

more substance than this "real" waking world. A chance to share your

symbolism and hidden meanings behind their dreams. Everyone dreams, what makes
them so important? What are some good tips for remembering your dreams? Making
them clearer? More psychic? More restful? What does it mean that you just dreamt
of a house full of snakes on your birthday?... We'll endeavor to help you find
the answers to all these questions, and any others you care to ask. We're not
experts, just learning as we go like everyone else... and we welcome anyone and
everyone to the list, experienced or inexperienced and hope that we can have
some great discussions going... Bandia duit. Goddess be with you.

Dreams [English] [For People Over 17]
http://www.onelist.com/viewarchive.cgi?listname=dreams
The Dreams list is just what it sounds like. Join the list to share your own
dreams, and read others. I believe dreams can be a very helpful tool to use in
our waking lives. Dreams reveal things we may not yet know, or understand in a
conscious state. Post your dreams here, and ask for interpretations, or help
others understand their dreams. If you just want to share some bizarre dreams
you've had, that's fine too. It's all in fun, and nobody here claims to be a
psychoanalyst, or dream expert. This list is not moderated, and all dreams are
acceptable, so long as they are PG in content.

This list is for those seeking clarification on their dreams. Many of us are
"waking up" to the fact that we are spiritual beings and that Spirit

open to loving discussion of Spirits work in one's life. This is a forum where a
person must be 18 or older. If you are feeling drawn to this list then we invite
you to join and share.
