Thread: Twoshadows' Dream Journal

Only my avatar I haven't been able to take any good ones in a while.

Very cool. Where was that taken? Is that a river or pond? I wish I could see it bigger. You should post a few, even if they are old ones.

Dream:

I was just bought a fish tank. I had wanted to get a big tank and have lots of smaller fish in it this time. Last time I ended up with one really giant fish, so I wanted a change. But the tank I got had fish already in it. And as I looked I saw that two were actually pretty big. Then I recognised the kind of fish they were. These each had the potential of growing 18+ inches. They would eat the rest of the little fish and I would be stuck with only two huge fish.


This dream reflects some real life events, like buying a big tank for a variety of small fish because I don't want another huge fish.

Lucid Dream:

I remember being somewhat lucid and "falling" though the streets. It was like I was flying to get somewhere, but I wasn't going fast enough, so I let myself fall. I have never tried that before. It was wonderful. It had all the sensations of falling down, but in this case I was falling horizontally. I tried to catch and remember all the street names as I zoomed by. The only ones I remember were"Compost St" and "Mire St". Odd names, but I'm glad I remembered at least two.

I feel like this dream was a breakthough for me. Maybe this "falling" concept is what I need to fly faster. I'm really good at falling. And I enjoy it so much. So why not fall forward instead of down?

Dream:

I was hiking with a group of people through this narrow wavy slot canyon. It wasn't very tall, and it seemed to be located in a much larger canyon. I went back and forth through this slot canyon several times.

It reminded me a little of this canyon:





There was much more to this dream, but this is the part I remember.

I also found this old picture today, and it just made me really happy.

I remember having this little dream as I was waking up. I was looking in this plastic container for something. It was mostly opaque, but the sun was shining on the side of it and making the inside light up some. There was a little dirt in the bottom. I leaned closer so I could see what else was in it. Suddenly I saw a big black widow right there. It startled me and I woke up.

I just dreamed about slot canyons. Maybe I'll dream about them again after going through Antelope Canyon today.

Dream:

I dreamed that I was standing in my old living room. Suddenly my sister Susan came in. She looked like she did when we were in college. I went to her and hugged and hugged her, and she hugged me back. I started sobbing. I had missed her so much. I knew that I was the only one in the room that could see her. Part of me wondered what anyone else would think if they saw me . But I didn't care and I kept hugging her.


This was a very emotional dream. Just writing this is making me cry again.

You looked like you needed it. And beautiful pictures.

Wow - those pictures!!!

I'm sorry, I reacted the same way on your other picture thread a minute ago - but I can't help it!! So amazing!! It's like being inside a gigantic alien living being. So beautiful!

Thanks, ninja. I appreciate that. Sometimes it takes dreams to bring out the emotions that you have pushed to the back of your brain.

Thanks, Darkmatters. I enjoy reading about your reaction. Living around here we all get somewhat used to this kind of scenery, and sometimes I wonder if people are going to think it's really all that special. Of course, even though I have gotten a little used to it I always think it's special. I love this area. I never get bored exploring around here.

And one of the things that is interesting is that it is never the same. Time of year and weather and many other factors change the way things look.

For example here is Antelope Canyon when I went through it in April on a sunny day. The lighting is completely different. As opposed to an overcast November day.

Dream 1:

I was traveling somewhere with Jeff and Tito. We had stopped at a large motel. We had parked around on the back side. We had to walk up a little hill to get to the building. As we walked my feet got caught in all the burrs in the weeds on the hill. It was like velcro. I could barely walk. But I somehow managed to yank my feet up and make it to the motel. I also felt this awful dark feeling. I felt something was wrong and that something bad would happen.

I think we talked to someone in the motel (this part is fuzzy). We had these little toy things that could transform when you took them to this special place. This motel had one of this places. We got two of the toys transformed, but then I said that I felt we needed to leave. The guys also felt this. So we walked back down the hill where our feet kept getting stuck.

As we were almost to the car I could see that this creepy guy was following us. We ran to the car, but the creepy guy was able to jump inside the car. Jeff took off driving down the street. The door on the creepy guys side wasn't shut. I reached around and kicked at him with my feet. I told Tito to also kick at him since he was next time him. We finally kicked him out of the car. I look back and saw his body flying arcross the road and hitting a light pole. I wondered if he had survived. I asked the guys if they thought we needed to call the police and tell them what happened. I was worried that we would be reported by the bystanders who didn't know the situation.

And that's all I remember.

Dream 2:

I was at this resort at the base of this mountain. I knew that there were some amazing hikes that started right behind the resort. I wasn't prepared for a big hike, but I wanted to hike just a little of the trail and then head back. I followed this girl. She had a little trouble getting up this really steep part. I felt a little proud that I got up it with no problem. I followed her for about a half mile or so. She stopped to change a shirt. I stopped and talked to her. I asked what her plans were. She told me that she would hike til dark, then make camp. I looked at saw that her backpack was tiny. There was no way she had a tent or sleeping bag or any camping gear of any kind I that pack. I told her that it woud be getting really cold, but she didn't seem to be worried. I didn't know if I should try to talk her out of it or not. I didn't want her to freeze to death. But she seemed so confident that I let her go on while I turned aruond and went back.

Here is a good side by side:

April:



November:

I wish I could go there just once and experience it - it must be like being inside a gigantic abstract sculpture with ever-shifting lighting effects. And snakes.

Yeah, that's a great desription of it. You need to put it on your wish list of places to visit. I have a list like that. There are so many places in this world to explore. But I guess we also need to be content exploring our own backyards until we can get to all the other places.

I dreamed Moonbeam was teaching me how to use a crossbow. Oneironaut was there too.

I wish I remembered more details.

Dreams:


1. Eating lots of ice cream with caramel and whipped cream.

2. I was taking care of this baby. It seemed that part of the time I thought it belonged to me. Other times it was like I was caring for someone else's baby. Either way it was a happy dream.

3. I was with my hiking group and we were going through this cave. But it turned out that much of it was built up with brick and very much man-made. At times I was afrid it was going to collapse.

I was going to a Fair with some family and friends. When we got there I noticed there was a lake. I also realized that I had two of my kayaks with me. But we had forgotten life Jackets. Daniel volunteered to go back home and pick them up along with the two other kayaks. In the meantime I took my kayak out on the lake to see what it was like. To my surprise it was full of huge black humpback whales. They were jumping and really stirring up the water. So as excited as I was to see them I was also al bit terrified that I would have a whale land on me.

You had a dream about Moonbeam? O.o Been a while for her, I miss that little koala

I know. Dreamviews has changed so much in the last five years. I occasionally look back in my DJ and see all the people who I used to talk to that are no longer here. It's sad.

Aww, sweet nostalgic TwoShadows I'll always be here for you

Thank you. I appreciate all the comments you have made in my DJ over the years. I'm really glad you are here.
