Thread: Strange Dream

Hi Mystical Journey,

This is just my opinion...

Underground tunnel means exploring the unconscious and subconscious mind.

Train ride means path/journey.

School means lesson/test.

The armed guards are shielding yourself from aspects that are hidden from you.

You had a very intense exploration of your unconscious and subconscious realm. The people in the dream are all aspects/sub-personalites of yourself.


You looking at the image on the paper may be about trying to recognise a old/past self/memories... that's why a lot of thought enters your mind.

The image disappears means that you have recognised the memories and it will no longer be an obstacle.

That's all, I can interprete/guess... the rest are too subtle...

regards

It would be nice to see what other people think about this dream as i appear to have a level of great confusion, I’m not the most developed, spiritually aware or intelligent person in the world so its 'message' isn’t clear to me, some spiritual insight from experienced dreamers and interpreters would be appreciated as i rarely feel connected to myself.

Had a really interesting dream that I thought would be good for interpretation. It was really strange (as in different to the shallow and whimsical dreams I usually have, this one seems to have a level of mysticism involved). I remember going into this dark and wet underground tunnel system, like an underground train system but without any sort of electrical lighting. People were being transported on the train through into a hidden location. There was armed guards surrounding various points of the track. I had to wear a suit to board the train. I found my suit but couldn’t put it on in time before the train left its location. I remember putting the suit into my back-pack and walking through the main reception when I saw a strange man in the corner of the building looking at me. I entered the toilet to freshen up and then continued to leave the building. After this the man followed me into a car with various other people inside and took me to this hidden location. It was really strange, they started to ask me questions I didn’t know how to answer or cant fully recall what they asked me.

The location was a sort a school with various different people inside the complex, it seemed as though we were there for some sort of assessment or test. He said that we were the people he wanted for this sort of group. He started to talk about things he knew about us, telling us our lifestyles our wages etc. You can earn lots of money if you wanted he said, he seemed to know lots about us and responded to people on an individual level. Emotionally it felt very bizarre. Leaving the building also entailed the same sort of trouble, we didn’t know where we were so had to leave though the underground train system again – I stumbled onto the tracks and wanted to stroll around but an armed guard took me back to the train. Next I remember being inside this huge cave complex sitting on a chair talking to this other person who is also asking me questions and giving me sheets of paper, people who seem to be walking past seem familiar. They were trying to help me see something or understand something.

He handed me a sheet of paper with an image on it, it has a man in the middle of the picture (Sort of like Frankenstein’s Monster or something), its hand-drawn in pencil covered in bricks and stones in an underground passageway again with two men with guns either side of him. He asks me to look at the picture and tell me what I think…..I stare at the image and lots of thoughts enter my head (of which I have forgot).

Suddenly when I look at the image it disappears and cant seem to find it again, then a colourful object changes colour and shape. This would be an excellent dreamsign but didn’t focus on the realisation that I was dreaming. A man came up to me and started to talk to me…… (Note: This dream involved lots of conversation and talking that represented something more than speech).

I seem to be in-between two people on a piece of rope that I’m chewing, one of them is a beautiful women who appears in a lustful sort of way that wants to entice me, the other I have a sense of but didn’t see. I remember resisting the women slightly but also feeling a sense of an electrical sexual sensation throughout my body. The good thing is I remember I didn’t go down that road, I went for the pure choice and stuck with the emotional connection and feeling of warmth I have for this other person. (Note: I guess its base animal instincts in relation to developed human emotions *?*).

Appear outside a house, the men play a song to me in my ear, I forget the lyrics but I tell them it makes me tingle, they say “that’s a good sign then, your still here” and pat me on the back, they seem very friendly. We walk into the house and a women and girl appear to be in the kitchen, we all sit down and I ask this women if she wants my seat so I stand up and let her sit down. This makes me move towards the fridge when I feel a connection to the girl before I sit down, a connection in which the people in the room want me to feel, but I reject the feeling as I feel a sense that my heart belongs to somebody else.

Later on the details and connections become more hazy and unreliable, I wish I could fill in the gaps because it seems like a very spiritual experience.

If I could express what Truth felt like this would be it, a truth beyond myself….

Everything seemed to have a level of meaning.

-------

I wish I didn’t have to describe the dream in this base form because it doesn’t express the level of intensity felt, like a rainbow of emotions all interconnected mixed with a pinch of fear. To me this appears as a sort of duality, when waking up I felt content and relaxed with pure and exciting thoughts in my head that make me feel alive and without any repression or anxiety (only the anxiety of interacting with other people entered my head). I got a sense that something was with me….a feeling I don’t know how to express.

When lying in bed with my thoughts:

Every time I thought of the person and they entered my head it was like we were talking to each other in a seamless conversation that anticipated feelings of warmth and electrical jolts when I thought about them. I felt a strange sort of sensation in my stomach, like a feeling of becoming hungry but fearful at the same time as I couldn’t anticipate what was going to happen.

Big-word for the day: Metamorphosis.

Yes, here is an instance where I am delighted that a person did not use his Lucid Control Skills in order to obliterate a meaningful dream. This is a very important dream. But it would almost take another dream to explain this dream. So let me lay out a dream of explanation. The World is about to come to an end and people are being chosen for survival and advancement to the Next Dispensation of Human Evolution. The Subterranean Railway -- all the darkness -- this represents the beginnings of a Destiny, incipient potentials, new beginnings still in the planning stage, and SECRECY. It puzzled me at first that a Spiritual Dream would be conducted in the dark, and under the earth instead of above it. But this only means that the Spiritual World is already beginning to implement a Plan involving the Material World.

You missed the first Opportunity. If you had been wearing your suit you would have made the first train, the First Team, the First Wave, the Avant Guarde. You missed it. What is the 'suit'. The suit is one's Worthy, Moral and Noble Persona. You have one, of course, but it is folded up in your backpack. You aren't wearing it. Yes, in this world, as it is, it would only get soiled, no? But others, not so fastidious, made the First Train... yes, with patches on their elbows and in a bad need of a good dry-cleaning. But they knew how True Spiritual People should behave and they behaved that way, even when it was not entirely comfortable or convenient. Yes, this seems that I am judging you. But the optimistic view of it is that AT LEAST YOU OWN A SUIT -- in your baggage you DO know how to behave, you DO have the makings of a Good Persona. You just need a little more time to put it on.

All the Testing, all the other people. Everybody is being examined. It is serious enough business to require guards. you must have done well, because you overheard these 'Angels' remarking that you have made it through much of the screening which would eliminate most other souls.

Now, about these encounters with your dilemmas -- the choices between objects of affinity and desire. I've always been puzzled by such dreams. In one such dream, this beautiful black, yellow, orange snake turned into a strikingly beautiful woman wearing a sari of similar color. Like a Hindu Goddess She may even have had four arms, swaying to and fro seductively. She was up in a bus and beckoned to me. Of course, I would climb aboard such a bus. But then, to the other side of me, this Plain Jane appeared who poured out her heart to me, telling me of her eternal and tenacious love for me. I was quite caught between. Who would I chose?... the almost supernaturally Beautiful, or the the one that loves me as much as I would love the other. That is the Choice -- do we choose the one we love, or the one who loves us? Do we choose the object of our desire, or the one for whom we are the object of desire? In one relationship, the Object has the power over us, because by controlling access to their persons, they can control our behavior -- "You want me? Then you must do what I want!" But if we chose the one for whom we are the object of desire, the Power goes to us. "You want me? Then you must do what I want!" The choice is really whether to be Master or Slave of Love.

So, what is the proper choice. To be Slave to a Goddess, is that not better than to be master of a Plain Jane. I have met men who have married women desparately in love with them, when, frankly, it was not all that very important to themselves. They have absolute power in their relationships, and they rule over their wives like tyrants. But these men are no happier with such wives then they would be alone, except that the cooking and the laundry gets done (as an old bachelor, I admit that such considerations may not be as trivial as it would at first seem). Maybe one would be happier being a Slave to some Ideal Love, rather than Master of the ordinary.

But then there is the matter of sex in dreams. Hmmmmm. You know, even in our dreams perhaps we should be discreet. I'd rather not go into discussions of Sex within Spiritual Dreams. One does not want to advocate such things, supposing that Sexuality, as Christ said, is entirely of the Body and will drop off as we become True Creators of the Spiritual Realm. But, then again, we don't want to pry into whatever secret and discreet arrangements and initiations may go on in what must be a complex and convoluted Spiritual World.

Oh, regarding that 'Rorschach test' -- the drawing that was presented to you in which the simplistic representation of a man, representing you,. turned into a Mass of Luminous Colors. That was your Graduation Certificate. That was showing that you would indeed go from the Material World, when the End comes, to the Spiritual World. That you would become one of the Superconscious and Transcendental Men of the Next Dispensation.
