Blind people military and an odd visual symbol

**Synaps3** · 11-14-2021 05:09 PM

So last night I had a dream where I was in the military (never was IRL). They started recruiting a bunch of blind people LOL. I remember us standing on some sandy terrain with small dunes. There were tanks randomly strewn about and some other heavy equipment. It was like a cross between a construction site and a military base. A Humvee pulled up to a few of us standing around. It was orange and looked somewhat like a CAT brand construction vehicle, but it was clearly being used by the military. We all jump in the Humvee. A large number of the people that got in were blind and had those white sticks.
The Humvee took off fast. There were others behind us as well, forming somewhat of a convoy. We were told by our commander that we were going to spend the day at a beach and just chill LOL. In a matter of no time, we made it to the beach. It was almost as if the Humvee just hovered over the ground really fast.
When we got there, the sight privileged people

got out fast, but we had to wait for the blind people. Fast forward, we are at the water. The beach was not sandy or pleasant at all. It was just a rocky slope down to the water and only about 1-2 meters long between the pavement and water. The rocks weren't too large though (about 4-5" stones), but it was a challenge to walk on them cause they were exactly the wrong size; too big to walk on blindly and too small to stand on. The blind people were obviously having a lot of trouble. The one blind person right in front of me got down on his hands and feet, but backwards (so his feet were in front and was bent over backward). I started laughing because of how ludicrous this was. There was a sight privileged man in front of the blind guy on the ground. He was meant to guide him I guess, but he decided to be an ass instead. There was a bit of a drop off into the water and the blind man kept asking how much farther to the water's edge. The sight man told him 6 feet or something even though the blind man was right on the edge. He slipped and fell in part way. He was on his hands and feet, so it wasn't too bad. The sight man laughed like a jerk.

Now here is the interesting part. This has never happened to me before. When I woke up and opened my eyes, I could see my room, but there was a symbol burnt into my vision. Sort of like how if you stare at a light, you get an afterimage. Part of this symbol was very clear, focused and defined, but the inner part wasn't. At first I thought it was the BMW logo, then I thought peace sign, but I realized it was neither of those as it got clearer (not a swastika). As soon as I thought I had fully seen it, it darted across the room and went through the wall. It was only a matter of seconds.

This is my best attempt at drawing it. It was all black and I could only see it because of the dim light in my room. What is this?
(Keep in mind, the background was not white, it was overlayed on my dark room. I don't think it's cross hairs.)

Is the beach an actual beach?
Do you know any blind people?

I know it's been forever, but I was reading my old dreams and I think I figured this one out.

It's about how I believe that people in the military are blind to what they are doing. They are there to just support the government and ruling class; not to protect the people (at least in America it's like this). The commander saying, "we're going to the beach to just chill", I believe symbolizes peace cause the beach is a beautiful and tranquil place. However, in the dream, the beach is small and rocky and not at all pleasant cause that is the true reality the military is leading us to. The bad guy leading the blind man into the water could represent the government.

This would lead me to think that that symbol at the end should be a peace sign, but it certainly wasn't. That's the only thing I can't figure out. I really want to know what that symbol means. Forget the black crap at the bottom, I think it was just too dark at the bottom and I couldn't see. So imagine the symbol without that black at the bottom. It's a pretty simple symbol, so I'm sure it must represent something...

I think that is a very good interpretation. One thing I wanted to add is that sometimes beaches represent a transition between 2 things. irl a beach is a transition between land and water, but in a dream it may be more abstract. The beach in your dream is not pleasant, so the boundary between what the land and water represent is probably just as rocky. In my dreams, water tends to represent the subconscious and/or unknown. Maybe it is similar for you.

This would also play on the concept of blindness in your dream, but it is difficult to say exactly how. Some aspect being represented by the blind person is being tricked during a transition from 'land' to 'water'.

Another thing i found funny is that i think I saw a symbol like yours in my most recent dream! I guess it is relatively simple and my memory was hazy but it is a funny coincidence.

I almost forgot that I have a thread about war and spy stuff, you are welcome to share that there.

Anyways, It is a good interpretation of your dream... I mean it could be anything! It could be what you could have seen or felt when you watch or read the news or something. Stress from work/ Family or whatever could have also impacted it too.

After all, you have the experience in that dream, that we didn't. Maybe you are not using all your senses while you are in your waking life.
