Kelp Forest Mountain Sun will be attractive to readers from all walks of life wanting to better understand their guiding dreams and initiatory passages, including youth trying to make sense of their ashen silences and the sudden impulse to punch through the walls of tradition, grandparents, restless in their accumulations, wishing to offer a voice of clarity about what it means to be human, and men and women, perhaps haunted by a nagging sense of depletion or failure, wanting a compelling and honest companion on the arc towards a worthy maturity. Inimitable in its candid imagery, enduring insight and uncommon intuition, this volume of initiatory dreams is sure to provide boosts of gentle guidance when facing the big existential issues weighing on us all. When the sensemaking apparatus in our waking lives is impaired or undeveloped, the medicine we need is to be found in our dreams. Unflinching in truth, dreams dispense nocturnal corrections that make us wise in ways victories and success will not.

With the depletion of cross-generational mentorship and a loss of village-mindedness, modernity has indelibly hampered our efforts to age well. Immaturity overstepping its welcome or basking in unearned attention is recognized as an unnatural haunting in the honest darkness of dreamtime. We learn through stories, and to dwell in our midnight stories is to negotiate a life-giving path through the tensions of our days. Dreams show us how to mature and be better stewards, while not succumbing to the devouring side of progress we have created.

At once beautiful, penetrating and simple, this book will make you question what you think you know by getting to the heart of what matters from the periphery of your imagination.
