Dream #1- I was at some sort of celebration/buffet. This girl I was friends with in grade school, I'll call her Al was sitting next to me. She was getting on my nerves so I told her I had to go sit by my family. When She got up, I noticed she had these crazy pink patterned contacts in her eyes and there was a giant eyeball in her belly that was looking around. Apparently this was her halloween costume. My cousin Lisa wanted me to sit with her, but there was only one spot at the table. I went to sit with my parents instead. I got up to get some food but accidently went to the wrong side of the buffet. By the time I got out the food was gone.
Dream #2- I was hanging out with this girl that used to pick on me a lot, I'll call her J. Somehow I earned her friendship. Then I went home to look at my mlp collection and I realized one of them was a fakie, which I hadn't known before. J admitted she had secretly switched one of hers with mine. I went to look at her collection and she had some really rare things that I'd never seen before. I was scheming to think of a way that I could get them from her cheaply, knowing that they were worth a lot. Then there was this beanbag bunny from my Grandma S's old house sitting next to my bed. And there were 3 red ones that looked just like it but a little bigger. One of them had fallen apart. It had been filled with beads, and all the beads were strung along on my bed, many of them falling off. It made me very sad. And there was an ornament on the Christmas tree at home that was broken which upset me as well.
Dream #3- I was in grade school again. I was hanging out with some kids, determined not to become the one that gets picked on all the time, so every time they made a comment about me, I blew it off with some smart-ass remark. We were walking down a hallway and there were a bunch of those plastic animals that look like they're shitting when you squeeze them. I stole one and everyone thought it was really cool. Then we were sitting at a picnic table and I had all these different colored pills that I was bragging about. Then the pills turned into pasta salad and we ate it. In the distance I saw a big wave coming. Before I knew it, the wave hit us. I grabbed onto a dock so it would carry me away. But another wave was after it, and then another, each one bigger than the last. I help my breath as they passed, but then a really gigantic one approached. I figured I would have to hold my breath for 2 mintues and 40 seconds, which I didn't think I could do.
Dream #4- I was walking around the block with Grandma B. We came across this guy who suddenly thought that he was in a relationship with me. I told that I'd been married for over 5 years and he was angry that I hadn't told him sooner. I said that was because I'd only known him for 2 minutes. He said he didn't realize that. Then he said something like "Get your ass over here babe so I can spank you." I told him no but he kept insisting. I finally looked him in the eyes and told him absolutely not. This seemed to really piss him off, so I flew away so he couldn't get me. I went back home, but I had to do some sort of test to make sure I hadn't done something wrong. It involved me being tied and hanging from some pole. I didn't want to do this because I knew it was going to say I'd done something wrong, I knew all the evidence was going to point to that, though I hadn't done wrong. I kept trying to convince my parents to make the test stop. I thought it was ridiculous and kept commenting on how stupid this was, at one point remarking, "This is like being in a bad horror movie." I flew up to the roof and decided that I didn't like this dream, so I started spinning.
The next thing I went to, I just remember seeing a bunch of toilets and shit, which I didn't care for so I spun again.
This time I decided I was going to have to create some some nice scenery so I decided on mountains. All I could get were rocky bluffs, though it was still pretty so I figured good enough. I made snow on the ground and started walking through it. Then I remembered snow was supposed to be cold, and I became very cold, so I made myself some boots and a coat and snowpants. I walked up the bluff and began to see bigger mountains in the distance. I was really enjoying the dream at this point, I decided the only thing that would make it better was some companionship, so I made my husband and my parents be along. Somehow then the dream changed character, we were walking into some underground pit filled with lava. I remember telling my husband not to die (he always seems to die in my dreams). It seems like he just disappeared, along with my parents. There were these giant figures floating around like gods, or demons. They wanted to sacrifice me to the lava. I was on this platform that was lowering down into it. I didn't want this, so tried to wake myself up.
I woke up (false awakening) not knowing where I was. I deduced that I was at a Chuck E. Cheeses. I was topless so I borrowed a little blanket from a kid. I figured I was in downtown Madison, though creeped out that I didn't know how I'd got there. I was thinking that even if I found a payphone that I could call for help, I didn't have any money on me. Then I caught a glimpse of my reflaction in a window and I realized I had the same strange hairstyle from the last dream. I was horrified, and ended up back in the hellish place. I spun again.
Now I was surrounded by metal. Everything was space age and silver, like something out a sci-fi movie. This lady was inviting me into this big ballroom type room, but I didn't trust her, I thought it was going to be hell again. In the other direction there was a hallway with stores and things. Behind me, going down, was the "furnace room." I asked what temperature the furnace burned at and they said 65. I didn't think that seemed too hot, so I decided to go that direction, thinking that the furnace room couldn't be hell because that would be too obvious. I was wrong. There was a big friendly furnace with a cartoon face. Then things got dark and hellish again. The demons returned, angry at me for eluding them again. They talked in these horrible demonic voices. They turned part of me to metal, which felt very strange, and welded me to something so I couldn't move or spin. I made myself wake up.
Dream #5- Something told me that my uncle Jerry had just died. I was talking to my Grandma B and she was saying that she wrote her will inside all these little plastic Easter eggs. The eggs had become lost somehow and this was very upsetting to her. Then this guy who had apparently been her neighbor came up with a few of the eggs, only they looked like polished marble. He said he knew where the rest were. I asked him to show me, and I was taken into Grandma's old house. I don't remember how it was activated, but there was this sword against a wall that you had to make go up. I wasn't sure if the sword was there in real life (it isn't), so I promised to ask my dad about it. The next thing I remember is being a theatre at school. There was this guy I knew, and I was telling him I didn't have time to talk, I had more work to do. I had to rescue this blue cow that was on the stage, I flew down and hooked onto it with some kind of plunger thing and flew it up to the balcony, where this little elf or something was waiting. It thanked me and then flew off with the cow. I knew there was one other thing I was supposed to do, and I found some old high school friends that were telling me what it was. They wanted me to edit some webpage. I thought this was weird given that I'm not great with computers. I asked them if I could do it psychically, they said yes but they wanted me to do it on the computer. I asked them why they didn't get someone who was better with computers to do it, which they didn't seem to have an answer for.
Thoughts & Themes- Oh boy, where to start. I had so many dreams last night, I'm quite sure I'm missing some in the journal. But I don't have 3 hours a day to devote to this. There were a lot of things that are common for me- giant waves, being sacrificed, hell-like imagery, contact with dead grandmas, buffets that I can never seem to eat, etc. In a lot of my school dreams I get picked on, but I seem to have found a way to avoid that. Unfortunately it involves acting like someone who I don't really feel is me. And it seems like I got punished for that in the dreams.
The most interesting dream for me was #4, particularily the lucid part with the bluffs and snow. I had tried the technique of spinning, that I read about on here, for the first time. Although I'm often aware I'm dreaming and can generally control my actions, it's rare for me to be able to change the scenery to such an extent. It was a very refreshing experience. Unfortunately, it went bad and I'm not sure why. This whole thing about being sacrificed seems to follow me sometimes, and it kept coming back no matter how I tried to change it, so I resorted to waking myself up, as I inevitably do in these sorts of dreams. I'm wondering though, if I shouldn't just allow myself to be sacrificed and see what happens. I'm always afraid that something terrible is going to happen to me because of it, but if I don't let it happen it'll probably keep haunting me. I don't know what to do...
