Thread: 4 faces

Hello all. I'm new here although I have taken part in other dream forums. Not sure if this should have been in the nightmare section.
For info I'm age 44, married and the father of 4 children. The number 4 my be significant...

The dream starts with some kind of show, I think. But there was this black cushion being prepared out of pieces of black masking tape. I remember watching one rectangle being placed neatly into a quandarnt of this black cushion. Then 4 faces appeared on the black surface in yellow-white light. More like skulls in fact. For some reason I had to touch the surface with my outstretched arm and when I did I could feel intense fear rising up through my arm - cold and anihilating.

I was able to hold back the fear at first and I left the place. I felt actually very cool as the fear hadn't overwhelmed me and I had kept it at bay. I recall walking along the road I used to take as a child coming home from school. Then it came back. An intense fear I've never really had in waking life (in my memory) not just in my arm but in my torso. At that point I woke up, although not in a nightmarish kind of way (e.g. not shouting).

I think it was some fear from really early in my life. But I have no idea about the 4 faces on the black surface of the cushion - it's the only object in the dream really.

They were aranged in a square, if that's relevant.

Anyone?
