School Reunion

Dream By Sea - Ok, I had a very strange dream last night with a gruesome image, which I'm very curious to figure out. I was dreaming about my upcoming high school reunion, and was surprised to see such a large gathering of people, most of whom I could not recognize. Unlike what is being planned for the actual reunion, people came with their spouses and children, and teachers were also there.

My ex-partner was there, and was tagging along with me. He was holding a baby, which looked like it was dead and decomposing, but was apparently still alive. The baby had no eyes in its sockets, and its head had actually come off its body. My ex-partner was attempting to screw the head back onto its body. He was setting it with some neck brace, and this was supposed to help the baby's head grow back on to its body.

Aggressive Dog

Dream By Helen - Hi all, this is my first post but I keep having dreams about my dog which died. A bit of background info.... Our dog was born with a medical condition that made her very aggresive. I have a rescue dog who we got in 2002, & in 2004 my husband and I decided to expand our family with a bull terrier pup which is a breed we have both always wanted. So in July 2004 Lottie was born, we fell in love with her immediately.

After a few weeks, Lottie started showing signs of aggression, anyway long story short, she had tests and was found her heart was the size of her ribcage and she has the dog equivalent of Schizophrenia . Her eyes would glaze over green and she would just go on a rampge, sinking her teeth into whatever she could get hold of, including, windowframes, gladys our staffy and myself and hubby. Due to the size of her heart we knew her lifespan would be shortened a lot. She started medication and life carried on.

Meeting on a Bridge

Dream By May - A friend of mine has been having a dream that she cannot seem to wrap herself around and figure out, so thought I would ask here to see what other people's interpretations of the dream may be.

In her dream she is standing at a bridge, on the bridge is a man she has been in a relationship with for a couple of years now (and with whom she continues to go back and forth in her mind as to whether she should move forward with him or go in a different direction) and he is urging her to join him on the bridge.

Dream Symbols - Seperation & Wholeness

By Sowelu –  While I agree that the personal meaning one attaches to symbols is quite significant, I also have experienced that there is a more universal, underlying “logic” to symbology that exists whether or not one understands it, believes it or has ever considered it before. The value of this concept has intriguing possibilities of its own, no?

In fact, the very experience of life in all its myriad form and detail springs forth from the very same pool of What Is that this symbolic language we encounter in our dreams does… in my experience. Thereby linking us all in a far more objective reality than our subjective experiences would seem to imply.

Caution, this is a long one as this is not a simple or easy concept to capture with words. In my experience and sense of things, this objective reality concept I mentioned is not “other”, in the sense that it doesn’t exist as an elsewhere source that we sometimes tap or only applies to this or that aspect or level of Being (i.e., humanity). It is the foundation of ALL expressions witnessed in Creation. Regardless of the “angle” from which you’re perceiving.

Red Car

Dream By John – I had a dream that I was running away from the police and one of my students (woman) pulled up in a red sports car and I put a gun to her head and told her to drive. This was after one of my male students drove by and did not let me ride in their car. Does this mean that I am in love with the woman in the red sports car who saves me?

Reply By Sowelu -   Hi John! Police represent some masculine authority, often beliefs or thoughts and attitudes that could assist you in life, if you allow them. Running from them indicates that you are not currently able to “ask for or receive higher help”, and there is a reason.

Ghosts

Dream By Elif – Hi, lately I have read many dream posts in forums on nightmares about ghosts or being chased by ghosts. Can someone explain more about the subject of ghosts in dreams? Do you believe in them? or if they really exist can they be as terrifying as in the movies? Can anyone explain the subject of ghosts in a simple language that I can understand?…

For me, I never believed in ghosts but rather see them as souls of our ‘lost’ ones passd over. And if they really exist  I wander how they can be so terrifying if they are the souls of those passed over (loved ones). They can only want to help us. Why are people afraid of them so much and how do they relate to our nightmares?

Hate

Post By Katie – I am such a hateful person the past few years. I am not like this by nature. However, I spend a lot of time by myself. I feel hate towards almost everyone I meet and I have had visions of killing myself or hurting others. People who I have met but do not know me very well, say in these visions..crying..usually..why didn’t you come to me first?

The others, people who supposedly “care about me” show no emotion. I have had this hateful outlook towards the world for awhile now although I do try consistantly to improve myself through breathing, eating right,sleeping,exercising sometimes, taking care of my appearances…however, I cant’ seem to make myself be nice. I constantly HATE.

Hospital Tests

Dream By Dreaming again - Good morning everyone! I had a dream last night but I can’t seem to remember much of it. I was working in a part of the hospital that must have been the lab. I had no experience and I believe in the dream I was supposed to have someone with me training me.

I was in the lab with two patients, one that needed blood taken and a urine test to see if she was pregnant, the other was in another room which I can’t seem to remember what he needed done, I believe some sort of blood test too.

Tame Tiger

Dream by Jenny - I have had exactly the same dream twice the first dream was in a previous post (ref Tiger)  but THIS TIME in this second dream right up to where a man stands in the door way and says he wants to talk, hes not going to hurt or harm me.

I actually agree to talk to him, but and hes kneeling in front me and talking to me, then kisses me on the lips (I don’t kiss him back) and then he says he wants to be friends and be close to me, and the next thing I know is that he puts a ring on my fourth finger on my left hand (the wedding band finger !).

Breast Operation

Dream By Jeri – Hi everyone, I have a question about dreams…. do similar dreams forcast the same outcome?… That is do they mean the same thing? For Example…. I had a dream about having a breast augmentation, and ended up with a hole in my side where the stitching wasnt in tact and clear liquid pouring out of it.

Then I had a dream that I had a scar on my tummy that was horribly infected and icky stuff oozing from it. Would this basically mean the same thing? or is it a whole different ballgame because its a different part of the body? Thanks..

Green Paint

Dream By Fluro – Hi Im just Wondering what pastel greenish/blue would mean, I’ve always dreamt of buildings with peeling paint in this color. Thanks!

Reply By Sowelu – Hiya! Hmmm… pale or pastel colors can often denote a lack of energy investment in the dreamer in the areas to which the colors point. Green might indicate growth, healing, creativity and expansiveness. Blue is often indicative of spirituality (if “cold” in the feel of the blue color, may denote emotional coldness).

Submarine

Dream By Dany - In a dream I've had before, I was on the passenger side in the back of a car someone else was driving. I saw the car take a right to go under a freeway bridge, and everything seemed normal until I saw a dried-up field of (wheat?) to my left. At that point, I no longer seemed to be in a car.

I took a right a right and I ended up being in a strange place. There were concrete walls (with many faucets on them, which seemed to be scattered) on my left and right, and there were many people there too. I continued until I reached the end of that place, and I saw and opening on my left. There seemed to be an ocean or something there.

Dead Sister

Dream By Lucidamy – Does anyone know anything about after death contact? meaning when you speak with loved ones in your dreams that are deceased. I speak and see my sister quite often.

She is the first. Recently it has been Zac. These are the only two that it has been with. This has not been happening with me for a very long time. Only the last three years and mostly with my sister. My sister is not by blood. I was adopted so in reality she would have been my cousin being as I was Adopted by my aunt. I hope that makes sense!

Dreams in Black & White

Dream By Keith – Normally i don’t dream in colour, but I have a few times… does it mean anything if your dream is in colour?

Reply By Sowelu - Hey Keith! Actually… try this on for size We all dream in color but when we recall our dreams, we don’t retain that level of clarity. Our conscious mind has ”fit” the dream imagery into what it can logically understand.

Falling

Dream By TK – We all get those dreams about falling, right? Why exactly do we jump and find ourselves wondering what happened?  today I heard that if you fall all the way to the bottom you’re dead, true or not true? And what does it mean if you are dead in your dream? T.K.

Reply By Sowelu - heh heh… HI!  Well, I don’t know that you’ll get any definitive answers to these questions, because it’s all subjective and conjecture until the fat lady sings, so to speak… but I’ll offer my view, and perhaps others will as well.

Dream High Ceilings & Crying

Dream by Dreaming Again – Ok this is the second time I dreamt that someone telling me I was going to die. Each time I’ve had to pester them for the answer, it was like they didn’t want to tell me. The first time it was a women and the second was a man (telling me).

Previous Dream: The women was on the phone and told me, “Crystal…your going to die”. I hung up on her and started crying.

Dream Teeth Falling Out

Dream By Danshea – Any thoughts about this dream I had last night? I occasionally dream in third-person, where I’m watching myself. This dream alternated between first- and third-person.

It’s my wedding day, and I’m getting ready. Putting on a powder-blue, frilly tuxedo. My teeth start to fall out; no blood, they just get loose and come out. I spit them into my palm. I only lose my lower teeth, and predominantly on the left side of my mouth.

Being Chased

Dream By Kelly - I have had three similar dreams, they are not quite nightmares but they are a little frightening, but also exciting at the same time.

The first dream was about escaping from prision, I had people after me, so I had to keep hiding in railway stations, peoples houses and hiding in crowds.

 The second was in my college where a person with a gun shot someone in the head and then turned to me, I had to run away very quickly jump in a car and flee.

Worms

Dream By Spacecowgirl – I dreamt last night that I was at home, and every time I sat on a cushion, a worm came out. That kept happening, until the floor was filled with worms. They crawled around everywhere and I kept stepping on them. I must say, I have a phobia of worms, I really hate them. what does this mean ?

Reply By Sowelu – Hi Spacecowgirl! Well, worms are often symbolic of aspects of self that the dreamer prefers not to look at, those aspects that feed on negativity; low self-esteem or self-worth, judgementalism, etc. They often indicate a lack of awareness in the dreamer as well. The message when seen in dreams is often to ”recognize your inner beauty” in a true way.

Beautiful Brunette

Dream By Jakey – I’ve asked everyone and no one can figure this one out. I’ve always been a frequent dreamer, about half of the dreams I remember have been lucid dreams. The “chased by a witch” and ”teeth falling out” dreams are fairly standard for me… but this one is new and it’s been bugging me.

The dream begins right in the middle of making love to a beautiful, warm, long-haired brunette (I usually date only blondes). It’s not just sex, but making love because all the emotions of love are there: trust, warmth, confidence, fulfillment, etc. She seems so familiar, but I’ve never met her. She has 3 freckles on the bridge of her nose.
