The Dream Magic Experiment

I was inside a mall (Ayala Cebu?), jumping up and down the stairs, trying to reach a room where they were celebrating a marriage or something. I arrived at what I thought was the right place. The area was more of a hotel. I reached the room (the name stars with "r," with v o and e in it). The guy (a guard?) there's no celebration there. I left, trying to jump out of the window, but couldn't find a place to land.

A boy and a man. Plaza. An event reminiscent of Chrono Cross. I saw a falling building. There are vampires.

I was in front of an Asian food stand that uses the same water for heating the utensils and for brushing teeth.

I was in a mall. Running or escaping within the mall. There were securities. I was going down an escalator. I passed by the "owner." Somehow reminds me of Mark Zuckerberg. A repeat of the scene. I was with some friends. We entered a church inside the mall. Then I was seeing a park, with benches. A few people. Orange lights and shadows. There was a person.

I was outside a building of sorts. We were lining up for something. It was morning. The setting seems foreign. Then Bhebs arrived, although she's far too small. I made a comment about her height and she did something like a shoulder throw on me.

I was in an orphanage of sort. There are other people around me. There's also Luis M. We were making love very awkwardly. Then the person changed into someone else. It was my lover (a stranger). We were sleeping side-by-side, with my lover to my right. Looks Caucasian.

Then we had to escape. It was an orphanage for kids used for crimes and other stuff. The leader was there. When we approached the door, the leader popped out. He shot and hit me on the right side of my torso. I shot him and hit him on the head, and he dropped dead. I didn't feel anything.

We continued running, but we're not sure which way was out. There were many others. Then some were out. I was looking for someone. Had to find him. I was outside. The others were just staying right outside. I told them to run as far away as they can because there's a bomb.

There was a pregnant woman coming out of the building. At first I was just watching her, and then I was accompanying her, as she climb up the... stairs?

Then there was an explosion. With no sound.

I'm practicing martial arts on our lawn. It looks like early morning. I recall Josh. He grew up.

I was in Cebu. I was going to attend a business seminar. I was lost in SM City. The name changed but I didn't pay attention. I took the tricycle up the mountain, at night. I was with Cindy and Clyde, and some others. Clyde was talking about ironing his own clothes.

I was trying to practice martial art. I was suggested not to attend the monthly seminars and just attend the national conventions every four months. I had to focus instead on activities during those four months, practicing martial arts.

After one training, I was asleep on the ground, or had my eyes covered, when one (or two) of my masters stopped by. They're happy to see that I'm working hard to improve. One looks like a human raccoon, and the other looks like Akisame Koetsuji.

I was in high school. Classmates. We were gathering.

I recall Pchy and Mario Maurer as well.

I was in a dorm of some sort, and a school. Preparing for something, saw my light-colored pants in the cabinet. Outside, we were playing volleyball. Then I have to go somewhere. I prepared two knives. I inserted them into my nails, one on one toe and the other on one finger. Somehow, I realized a problem with that, and I pulled out the knife out of my fingernail, and it has a lengthy "tail," or the area that was inserted under the fingernail for it to hold properly. I felt aghast, and saw the red blood starting to come out.

Then I looked at the one on my toe, and decided to leave it there, because I can use it to kick attackers. Mood is gloomy.

NOTE: When I woke up, found my only remaining pants is a light-colored one.

State: Almost 5 pm, humid, and I can hear a CEP audio, and the TV from afar.

I was completely awake. I had just been dreaming a few minutes ago, and then now I can "see through the eyelids." I can see the mirror, the walls, the windows (which was open, and there are tall grasses visible beyond it, but in reality, it's closed, and there are no grasses behind it).

I can also see my right hand. I tried moving it, and I felt it rise, but I can see my right hand and arm stay put. I thought I was probably almost astral traveling. I moved my head, twisting it, to get out of the body, together with my arms and torso. I then vaguely saw my face, so close to mine, but shaven. I felt like an outgrowth trying to cut itself off from the body. It was very hard.

I finally got out, but I no longer see my body on the bed. And I'm in a different room. My view was very hazy, and I can see a cabinet/divider in the room. I am across the bed in the room. There's a door to the outside behind me (there's no door to the outside in my room). I rubbed my hands together to stay more lucid, and I commanded "clarity." Nothing happened. I saw my bed (different color, size, etc.), and a glimpse of my "body," and I'm back in my body.

I almost woke up, but somehow, something clicked in my mind, and I'm in the middle state between waking up and asleep once more. I thought I was really awake this time. I still can't move my body, but I can still feel moving my "astral arms."

After a short while, though, I just decided to close my eyes, and I "opened" them up again. Still same problem. I started to get anxious. I worried "What if I can't wake up from this?"

I closed my eyes again, for a longer time, and I sensed another click or pop in my mind, and I knew I was "awake." I opened my eyes. It looks the same, but a little different. I didn't dare try moving my hands, afraid that I'm still stuck. After a while, I moved, and it moved. I'm awake.

Chase. Slide. A guy with long hair throws bananas on the floor, while being chased, on a sliding board.

I was in a house. Traveling, and looking for something. Or I was going to an alternate dimension. A person. We're searching for something. I need to avoid people.

I traveled around the house/area. I can see the alternate dimension, and the other person can also sense me. I tried to go to a room where I believed he wouldn't be able to access its version in the alternate dimension.

I walked around, and found a lot of greenery. I was in a mansion, or a hotel. Outside, it was green everywhere due to the earth-hugging leafy plants, as well as huge trees. I saw rabbits and small animals.

School.

Shoes. Stores full of shoes. I wanted to buy one. I found one, and then a store keeper found me one. I asked if it's okay for me to just carry it while I look around for other designs, so that I can compare. It seems it was okay with him.

I ended up in some other shoe store that also sells clothes, but when I didn't find what I want, I went back to the previous store. Only, it looked a lot better than before. I looked at the prices, and I saw one I like, but it costs Php 800-plus. My budget for the shoes was only 300-plus. I took the one that the guy gave me before, and told him I'll buy it instead. It costs around 167, or something. But I didn't realize that's only for one shoe. For two shoes, I had to multiply the price by two. I checked my budget to make sure I still have money. They already put it on the counter and even already wrote a receipt for it. One clerk just paid for the cash I lack, since I gave the impression that I still have to withdraw money (I didn't say it, but I thought it). Fortunately, I found a total of 500 in my wallet. Then I realized, and asked if they also accept the Smart Money debit card. They said they do. Well, too late for that.

I was having trouble seeing because my contacts are not sticking well. One feels like it's about to peel off. I have to wear glasses.

I recall seeing the beach.

NOTES: I also remember realizing I was in a dream, but I wasn't able to remember the rest.

I've been too stressed lately that I can barely remember my dreams. Even those that I can remember right before I wake up. Annoying, but I have to persevere. I still practice RC.

Also, interesting how the night before the stressful events in my life, I tried visualizing the Tattwas in their proper evolutionary order, and found that they clash heavily during the seed parts. Only the Ether seed-ofs didn't clash, since it seems to just "absorb" the seeds, as well as a few like the Fire - Seed of Earth:

"There exists a transcendent reconciler that arises when opposing forces class, if we can but intuit it." (Mumford, "Magical Tattwas")

I think it meant that I should have tried to connect two parties.

Then, last night, everything seems okay, and only the Fire - Seed of Air seems to clash, which I found strange since I thought they'd be "supporters" of each. True enough, I checked and they are.

Interesting that the divination part of the book on Magical Tattwas described it thus:

"Fire - Seed of Air, frequently manifests as a theme of test, and trial, tribulation, and frustration accompanied by an impetuous urge to "burn our bridges."

Because that very day, before I visualized the Tattwas that night, I quit an organization, and although I thought it to be "okay" already, I then found out that somebody twisted my words to mean something insulting. Good thing that instead of burning the bridges with everyone, I kept contact, and although one insisted I insulted him, even though he was absent, the two who were there have said that they didn't think I said anything insulting about anyone.

Too bad I didn't read it, since I don't really delve into the divination aspect of the Tattwas, but it's just nice to check it out, and that it matches and seems to be telling me something.

I hope to use the Tattwas to aid my LD soon.
