Dreams Between Waking and Becoming

What if your dreams already knew your future? In Dreams Between Waking and Becoming, author M. Aarohi shares 47 real dreams from her own life - from her school years to motherhood - and the remarkable, honest reflections they unlocked. Part spiritual memoir, part psychological self-portrait, this book weaves together ancient Indian symbolism, personal experience, and universal human themes in a voice that is warm, brave, and completely one-of-a-kind. Each chapter follows the same intimate structure: the dream itself (vivid, sometimes terrifying, sometimes absurd), the moment in the author's life it reflected, possible symbolic meanings, what it personally meant to her - and a reflective question left for you, the reader. WHAT MAKES THIS BOOK UNIQUE:¿ 47 real dreams - not invented, not embellished. Lived.¿ A dual lens: ancient Indian spiritual symbolism + modern psychological insight¿ An interactive question at the end of every chapter - this is a book you think with, not just read¿ Themes that cut across cultures: motherhood, authority, grief, healing, belonging, transformation¿ An Indian perspective on dreaming that is refreshingly underrepresented in the genre¿ Short chapters - perfect for reading one dream per night before sleep PERFECT FOR READERS WHO:¿ Have ever woken from a dream they couldn't shake¿ Are on a journey of self-discovery or spiritual growth¿ Enjoy personal memoirs with depth and honesty¿ Are curious about Jungian psychology, symbolism, or Hindu spirituality¿ Want a book that asks them questions, not just answers them HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE BOOK:- A dead boss found floating beneath the author's own bed (Chapter 8)- A parrot who threatened to end its life because of a thoughtless joke (Chapter 35)- Climbing the Himalayas in five minutes during a Pooja (Chapter 45)- A tsunami - and instead of running, the author carries the kitchen to the roof (Chapter 13)- Lord Krishna handing over a bent flute that, once straightened, makes everything turn purple (Chapter 44) This is not a book about what dreams mean.
