Here are some common recurring elements in my dream journal (dream signs, etc.)
Blonde Females and Bleached Blonde Females:
Although DCs can appear in many forms, ever since I started a dream journal here, I've been seeing a lot of blonde females, ranging from Bleached blonde hair to just regular blonde hair.
I've read that blonde hair usually means one isn't living life to the fullest, or isn't having as much fun as they think they're having.
That's been pretty obvious with me, especially worrying about college/university and all that, so I am trying to fix that by creating a figure that would exhibit those qualities that I'm lacking.
The bleached blonde hair females usually try to keep a distance away from me, but I've realized that this happens because they're essentially enticing me to pay attention to them more.
But when I do pay attention to them, they reveal more about themselves to me, usually, and they also have a positive vibe towards them, sometimes a little sexual, but not too crazy.
I don't expect all of them to give this positive vibe, so even though hair color can be manipulated a lot, it always seems to be blonde hair colors.
So I guess having their hairs bleached means they have their confidence deprived compared to ones that are naturally blonde.
Regular Blonde females are usually direct with me, they're more confident towards me. They give a stronger positive energy towards me than bleached blondes.
They also seem to have a larger sexual energy than the bleached blondes, it's mostly for compelling me to be a bit more confident towards them.
Either way, I think these are projections to hint towards who my Anima could be portrayed as.
College/High School/Middle School/Elementary
College
Yeah, those are present for obvious reasons. I've been getting some dreams related to final exams coming up, and they're usually predictable in the sense that the dream is trying to tell me not to worry too much about them, but I can't help but worry because I don't want to fail any courses and possibly retake them.
High School
These dreams are mostly seeing familiar characters of people I've seen in the High Schools I've been to. Not really too much to be specific about, since the emotions DCs exhibit vary.
Middle School and Elementary School
These are a little bit rarer, but when they DO show up, it's mostly set out in a cafeteria, and me trying to get something for lunch, but always having difficulty.
ApartmentWhenever I do a WBTB+WILD, 90% of the time, I'm set in my bedroom. This is one of those annoying elements that I've seen because it's just soooo real, and I usually am too lazy to do Reality checks here because I feel like I failed the process of WILDing.
I've noticed that my mind is the clever little devil here as well, especially with light switches. I occasionally check to see if the lights work in waking life, but not as much, so that's another thing I need to work on.
Also, it's usually fairly dark in the apartment in my dreams, probably because it's associating with how I wake up in the middle of the night for a WBTB.
There's also blinds up front, just like in waking life, and usually, when I look between them, the environment is almost the same as waking life, which is another tricky element.
But when I do know I'm dreaming for sure, my mind sets what I see outside through the blinds as something different.
Lady in Red/Redheads/Gingers
Lady in Red
These appear for obvious reasons to get my attention, and they have this weird feeling to them. It's like once I acknowledge them, I get into this compelling gaze.
I've also noticed that Kaomea, a shared dreaming partner of mine, she appears mostly in red, so she overs most of the elements here as "Lady in Red."
As for the rest, I usually ignore them because they come in at awkward timing where my back is facing them most of the time, or I barely catch them with my peripheral vision in dreaming. I've had one female show up where I was going up some ledge in a sky city, and a lucid dream where a different one in red sat next to me, but again, I was distracted with something else to ask them more details as to why they are present in the dream.
Also, some of the lady in reds could possibly be elements of my Anima, since I do believe with the theories with twin souls, mirrors, etc.
I've had cases where I killed some of these females, but they were mostly in non-lucids where I was trying to hide and search for something.
Redheads/Gingers
These may not be as often as the blonde female elements, but when they do, they're more of the "beautiful but deadly" type of females.
I remember a dream where I was set in a multiplayer type of dream where it was a first person shooter. There was a lady who looked like she's going to pass out, and because of her hair, it attracted me to her.
When I got closer to her, she grabs my head, and literally takes some of the air out of me, and feels better after that.
Another one is a lucid dream where I I woke up near the nurse's office of some sort, and the lady in front of me was nice. Then when I go to the hallway with her, things started to get darker and darker, and I started to choke in the dream. She did try to help me by holding me when I fell down, but I was paranoid that she was merely putting up an innocent facade to suck out my energy or something, lol.
Code LyokoCode Lyoko is a French anime that also had an English dub to it as well. I've had experiences with some of the main characters in my dreams, and most of the time, I don't really see my dream body a lot in these.
The reason why I have these sometimes is because I loved the show because of the sci-fi kind of element to it with virtualization to a digital world, fighting a mult-agent program named X.A.N.A., and the fact that one of the main characters uses a supercomputer to return to the past to prevent X.A.N.A. from accomplishing his goals to eliminate the main characters and various regions on earth.
Metal Gear Solid/Guards
I have some Metal Gear Solid dreams where I meet a few characters like Eva, Solid Snake, Naked Snake, etc.
I underlined Eva because I've had a lucid dream where I almost met her, but that was a while ago, and I also had some non-lucid dreams with her, but she was more of a person that ignored unfortunately.
She gave me a grey letter with the letter "M" written on it, which is why I searched for her a lot when I had the non-lucid dream with her for the first time.
I even went to the point to where I started to become obsessed to her, I just liked her character in the series, despite of the fact that she's fictional.
I've started another search for her, but it isn't as crazy and ambitious as last time. I'm doing it because she's a blonde female, which ties in to me hopefully finding out why I really do have these dreams with blonde females.
I've had some cases where I was Snake, or watched one of the two Snakes in the series do something like infiltration, etc.
Guards
Whenever I see this element, I'm usually on the run, always trying to be aware and quick with my movements.
Sometimes, the guards are invincible, so not matter how hard I try to shoot them in rage, or some other means, they come back even more aggressive.
I've also notice I don't care much about their lives when I do kill them, and sometimes turn a little too sadistic in killing them.
I think these are the type of dreams where I'm stressed out the most, and I feel like a different part of me I'm not too aware of is taking control while I'm just seeing the experience.
Golden Objects, Armor, etc.I put this one last because it's sort of subjective at the moment.
A DV friend of mine, Sinoblak, has had a dream where she saw me wearing golden eagle masks, and having a golden eagle pet.
She's noticed that I'm more laconic with my words, and more independent, which leads me to speculate if this is probably my higher self being projected towards her.
This another thing I'm after as well, because it relates to blonde hair color and bright colors.
I've noticed that I feel free, relaxed, having emotional attachments in waking life eradicated when I become lucid.
I'm also more naive, seeing as I'm still new to lucidity, since I remember the non-lucid dreams more.
But when I do have a lucid dream, those are harder to forget, and I can literally have them lingering in my mind all day long without much effort because I remember snippets or some kind of eidetic memory which leads me to remember my emotions and dream characters' emotions, and these lucids are generally longer than the non-lucids.
