Dream Circle
Mondays 6-8pm at Dominican Center
Sept. 15, Oct. 20, Nov. 17 and Dec. 15, 2025
Cost $180
Join us this fall for a monthly Dream Circle. Dreams have always been an important part of a healthy spiritual life, from the Bible through the Saints. This Dream Circle will focus on how to listen to dreams, how to let dreams affect and shape the dreamer, how to allow dreams the chance to point toward blocks and opportunities in the spiritual life. We’ll share our dreams in a confidential setting, learn various practices for working with dreams, and hold space for one another. It’s a chance to get into a habit of paying attention to this often-neglected part of our lives with the companionship of others.
This Dream Circle will be hosted by Kent Dobson. He’s led dream workshops for the Dominican Center for the last couple of years, guides wilderness retreats for Animas Valley Institute (with a special focus on dreams), and is an Associate Pastor at Mayflower Congregational Church.
“We have forgotten the age-old fact that God speaks primarily through dreams and visions.”

Hints & Guesses
“Hints and Guesses” is a line from T.S. Eliot. It seemed like a perfect idea to start conversations about spirituality, religion, doubt, sacred texts, nature, soul, love, death, and all the good stuff.
