If saving humanity was as easy as rock hopping across a narrow river we might all give it a try :)
Gorgeous sunny day. Blue sky. Wide open vast sky expanse. Dirt roads. Walking off into the forest/jungle where the Egyptians are. They are naked inside of this cave/grotto across this narrow river. Everything is deep dark green. The water is clear but dark. It looks like night in there. They are waiting for us.
In the dream it was my sister. I wasn't really me I was this goddess speaking through. I asked her " You know what you must do. Are you ready to save humanity? It rests on you." The whole thing?! Rests on my sister who is living absentmindedly? A libra out of balance? She had no idea what was needed from her but was willing to give it a try.

And all that was needed was for her to cross the river and meet the Egyptians. They would do the rest or this activation would occur. The river was maybe 30 feet across with large rectangular boulders half submerged with swift water that was moving to the left or to the west. Most of the time the rivers seem to be flowing to the right or the east ? I watched a man slip and hit his head. He disappeared.
The light beings were innocent. naked. pure. they didn't speak really but where psychically communicating. There was a sense of portal time. Dire imperatives to cross the river to meet them! I don't think my sister even tried. I remember saying to myself "that doesn't look so hard to cross why is everyone failing?" The rocks were slippery and people were hesitant and fearful, not a good combination. The way the rocks were aligned you didn't even have to step on them but could veer through them and if the current caught you you would just bump into another rock. Essentially they would catch you and you could use them to get across without actually stepping on their slippery surfaces :)
I didn't cross the river but i floated across into the light beings space and was in their world. They were staring off to the opposite side of the flow of the river. To the right from my perspective. As if they were looking at GOD and waiting for IT to come closer and take them home...Although it was dark in the jungle/forest there, there was great light emanating from the cave/grotto/womb of eternity and from the beings. a light from deep inside emanating and you aren't sure where the source is.
*post dream reflections: Sister come back to us!
Each one of us may just have this one secret task they must complete to activate the galactic time machine back home!
Saving humanity begins with each one of us saving ourselves. crossing the river of life. of duality. and becoming one. naked. pure. light of LOVE
LIFE IN BALANCE
Blessed we are
and it is DONE!
An ambivalent symbol since it corresponds to the creative power both
of nature and of time. On the one hand it signifies fertility and the progressive
irrigation of the soil; and on the other hand it stands for the irreversible passage of
time and, in consequence, for a sense of loss and oblivion (8, 60).
Rapid and flowing muddy river indicates great troubles and difficulties. But a river
with calm glassy surface foretells happiness and love.
To see a clear and calm river in your dream, indicates that you are just going with the flow. You are allowing your life to float away. It is time to take a more decisive role in directing your life. Alternatively, a river symbolizes joyful pleasures, peace, prosperity and fertility. If you are crossing a river in your dream, then it represents an obstacle or issue that you need to deal with in order to move closer toward your goal. It is also reflective of a new stage in your life. If the river is muddy, then it indicates that you are in turmoil.
To see a raging river in your dream, signifies that your life is feeling out of control. You are feeling emotionally unsettled. Alternatively, a river means you are ready to confront life's challenges and life's twists and turns.

The complex symbolism of the cross neither denies nor supplants the
historical meaning in Christianity. But in addition to the realities of Christianity there are two other essential factors: that of the symbolism of the cross as such
and that of the crucifixion or of ‘suffering upon the cross’. In the first place, the
cross is dramatic in derivation, an inversion, as it were, of the Tree of Paradise.
Hence, the cross is often represented in mediaeval allegory as a Y-shaped tree,
depicted with knots and even with branches, and sometimes with thorns. Like the
Tree of Life, the cross stands for the ‘world-axis’. Placed in the mystic Centre of
the cosmos, it becomes the bridge or ladder by means of which the soul may reach
God. There are some versions which depict the cross with seven steps, comparable with the cosmic trees which symbolize the seven heavens (17). The cross,
consequently, affirms the primary relationship between the two worlds of the
celestial and the earthly (14). But, in addition, because of the cross-piece which
cuts cleanly across the upright (in turn implying the symbols of level and of the axis of the world), it stands for the conjunction of opposites, wedding the spiritual (or vertical) principle with the principle of the world of phenomena. Hence its significance as a symbol for agony, struggle and martyrdom (14). Sometimes
the cross is T-shaped, further emphasizing the near-equilibrium of the opposing
principles. Jung comments that in some traditions the cross is a symbol of fire
and of the sufferings of existence, and that this may be due to the fact that the two
arms were associated with the kindling sticks which primitive man rubbed together to produce fire and which he thought of as masculine and feminine. But the
predominant meaning of the cross is that of ‘Conjunction’. Plato, in Timaeus,
tells how the demiurge joins up the broken parts of the world-soul by means of
two sutures shaped like St. Andrew’s cross (31). Bayley stresses the fire-symbolism of the cross, and explains that all the words for ‘cross’ (crux, cruz, crowz,
croaz, krois, krouz) have a common etymological basis in -ak, -ur or -os, signifying ‘light of the Great Fire’ (4). The cross has been widely used as a graphic
emblem, very largely as a result of Christian influence but equally on account of
the basic significance of the sign; for it is clear that all basic notions, whether they
are ideas or signs, have come about without the prompting of any cultural influence. Hundreds of different shapes of crosses have been summarized in works
such as Lehner’s Symbols, Signs and Signets, and it has been found possible, by
the study of graphic symbolism, to elucidate the particular meaning of each one.
Many of them take the form of insignias of military orders, medals, etc. The
swastika is a very common type of cross (q.v. Swastika). The Egyptian, anserated
cross is particularly interesting in view of its antiquity. In Egyptian hieroglyphics
it stands for life or living (Nem Ankh) and forms part of such words as ‘health’ and
‘happiness’. Its upper arm is a curve, sometimes almost closed to form a circle.
Enel analyses this hieroglyphic as follows: ‘The phonetic significance of this sign
is a combination of the signs for activity and passivity and of a mixture of the
two, and conforms with the symbolism of the cross in general as the synthesis of
the active and the passive principle.’ The very shape of the anserated cross
expresses a profound idea: that of the circle of life spreading outwards from the
Origin and falling upon the surface (that is, upon the passivity of existence which
it then animates) as well as soaring up towards the infinite. It may also be seen as
a magic knot binding together some particular combination of elements to form
one individual, a view which would confirm its characteristic life-symbolism. It
may also signify destiny. Judged from the macrocosmic point of view, that is of
its analogy with the world, the Ankh-cross may represent the sun, the sky and the
earth (by reference to the circle, the upright and the horizontal lines). As a microcosmic sign, that is by analogy with man, the circle would represent the human
head or reason (or the ‘sun’ which gives him life), the horizontal arm his arms, and
the upright his body (19). In sum, the most general significance of the cross is that of the conjunction of opposites: the positive (or the vertical) with the negative (or
horizontal), the superior with the inferior, life with death. The basic idea behind
the symbolism of crucifixion is that of experiencing the essence of antagonism, an
idea which lies at the root of existence, expressing as it does life’s agonizing pain,
its cross-roads of possibilities and impossibilities, of construction and destruction. Evola suggests that the cross is a synthesis of the seven aspects of space and
time, because its form is such that it both maintains and destroys free movement;
hence, the cross is the antithesis of the Ouroboros, the serpent or dragon denoting
the primeval, anarchic dynamism which preceded the creation of the cosmos and
the emergence of order. There is, thus, a close relationship between the cross and
the sword, since both of them are wielded against the primordial monster (Plate
V).

Within the general symbolism of landscape, forests occupy a notable
place, and are often found in myths, legends and folktales. Forest-symbolism is
complex, but it is connected at all levels with the symbolism of the female principle or of the Great Mother. The forest is the place where vegetable life thrives
and luxuriates, free from any control or cultivation. And since its foliage obscures
the light of the sun, it is therefore regarded as opposed to the sun’s power and as
a symbol of the earth. In Druid mythology, the forest was given to the sun in
marriage (49). Since the female principle is identified with the unconscious in
Man, it follows that the forest is also a symbol of the unconscious. It is for this
reason that Jung maintains that the sylvan terrors that figure so prominently in
children’s tales symbolize the perilous aspects of the unconscious, that is, its
tendency to devour or obscure the reason (31). Zimmer stresses that, in contrast
with the city, the house and cultivated land, which are all safe areas, the forest
harbours all kinds of dangers and demons, enemies and diseases (60). This is why forests were among the first places in nature to be dedicated to the cult of the
gods, and why propitiatory offerings were suspended from trees (the tree being,
in this case, the equivalent of a sacrificial stake) (8).
To dream that you are in or walking through the forest, signifies a transitional phase. Follow your instincts. Alternatively, it indicates that you want to escape to a simpler way of life. You are feeling weighed down by the demands of your life.
To dream that you are lost in a forest, indicates that you are searching through your unconscious for a better understanding of yourself.
To dream of a forest fire, indicates that transformation and regeneration is only possible through some hardships. Alternatively, it suggests that your anger is out of control; it is affecting those around you.

To see a forest of stately trees in foliage, denotes prosperity and pleasures. To literary people, this dream foretells fame and much appreciation from the public. A young lady relates the following dream and its fulfilment: ``I was in a strange forest of what appeared to be cocoanut trees, with red and yellow berries growing on them. The ground was covered with blasted leaves, and I could hear them crackle under my feet as I wandered about lost. The next afternoon I received a telegram announcing the death of a dear cousin.''
Dreaming that you are in or walking through the forest means a transitional phase. You may be following your instincts. Dreaming that you are lost in a forest means that you are searching through your unconscious for a better understanding of yourself.
