HORSEDREAMS
My Life in Dreams
1969-2006
By
Fairfax F. Arnold
Introduction
I began recording my dreams because of a suggestion from my mother.
During my 14th year, I began having very vivid dreams which awakened me in the middle of
the night. When I told my mother she made a suggestion that she would frequently repeat
during the course of her life: “Write it down.” So, of course I did. Putting
thoughts and ideas (and dreams) on paper became a theme in my life. Journals, letters,
poems, prose and eventually my first novel, can all be attributed to being raised by a
novelist who cherished the written word and the thoughts behind them.
Choosing to publish my horse dreams came about when someone suggested I
write down what it was like being raised by a strong, independent, and brilliant woman.
Dreams are a reflection of my unconscious mind. They point to both my strengths and
weaknesses without being filtered through my conscious mind. As such, they are themselves
more pure in their representation of myself that I could ever hope to achieve through my
own directed writing, therefore I have chosen to present my dreams without editing.
Editing is by definition a conscious effort and if dreams are true unconscious then any
reworking of their content and word would overlay a conscious intent.
I chose my dreams if horses because I believe the horse represents the
vital essence. Horses have been a constant in my life. Many of my dreams are of specific
horses that I have owned, while other dreams contain horses I have never met. One hundred
horse dreams. Believe in you dreams, sweet dreams.
