Product Description 2014 WINNER! NATIONAL INDIES EXCELLENCE AWARD – NEW AGE FICTION Inspired by a true story, LAVENDER is a fable for our times. Following the relentless quest of Penelope, an unschooled, unscientific and unexpected vehicle for higher truths, LAVENDER engages you in decoding dream-encrypted riddles and clues to a monolithic puzzle. As the hundreds of threads in Penelope's dreams connect, we discover how intuition guided by spirituality can reveal startling scientific fact. The choice emerges between healing the earth or ignoring Penelope's tormented warning of our potential demise. Wound around a long-term study in dreaming consciousness, LAVENDER brings David Bohm's quantum theory of cosmic unity to life through aspects of fragmentation, timelessness, interconnectedness and wholeness. As a guide to the waking-dreaming mind, LAVENDER reveals: • the transformational potential in long-term dream journaling; • paranormal aspects inherent in dreaming; and • how dreamers can crack their own code. LAVENDER is charged with mystery and suspense, neither science fiction nor earthbound whodunit, but a Who-Sent-It cosmological conundrum with outcomes supported by today's headlines. Review This is an important book for all of us concerned about the precognitive elements of our dreams, a possibility now well-established in science labs of the world. We learn that dreams may contain warnings of disastrous events that go well beyond those affecting our earthly parents to those affecting our own dear Mother Earth. ~ Sally Rhine Feather, Ph.D., Director, Rhine Research Institute The basic need of our time is to restore the primacy of our DNA over our brain. Judy Gardiner’s book Lavender is a welcome sign that this restoration is underway. Dreams are the voice of our DNA; they offer us an exhilarating perspective on ourselves and the Universe that contains us. You need to know this. ~ Robert A. Keller, Ph.D. Lavender is an odyssey into the soul of a protagonist who finds the key to dream interpretation. As multiple dream symbols cohere into biological, geological and spiritual narratives, Lavender transmits the experience of self and world as an indivisible unity. We have much to learn of the wisdom of the dream from this intricate work by a master dreamer.” ~ Melanie Starr Costello, Ph.D., Jungian Analyst Reading Lavender is a voyage into a range of our dreaming psyche that reaches beyond the mundane, calling attention to the corruption of our environment, which has gathered speed during the nuclear age. The author has done with the intrinsic honesty of dreams what Al Gore and others have done with hard scientific facts. ~ Montague Ullman, M.D. What Judy Gardiner has experienced and written is a reality of the multiple aspects of consciousness that are open to all of us in varying degrees. Led to snatch onto dreams she wanted to understand, opened her to study scientifically-based research that rolled into a greater challenge for more knowledge about what she was dreaming and its importance to share. ~ Rita Dwyer, International Association for the Study of Dreams Any reader who enjoys puzzles will love this book.
