3rd Lucid :)

I've had a long dryspell - Since my last post about my lucid dream. Anyways, here it goes.

So last night, I was talking to someone on Team Speak about some paranormal stuff, weird stuff. I'll be honest - I get kind of creeped out easily. Not necessarily scared, though. But anyways,

-- Dream starts --

I was sitting with a bunch of candles around me, and in front of my was a teddybear with a knife next to it. The bear was sitting on a small pillow, and also had candles around it. It was facing away from me, and I couldn't move for some reason. Note that at this time I wasn't lucid yet. The bear's head slowly turned on its neck and met my eyes, and I couldn't look away, blink, or do anything still. Then its body turned to meet its head, and it stood up. It picked up the knife, and slowly walked toward me. When it stepped over a candle, it caught on fire and kept walking. At this point, I said to myself, "Teddy bear's can't walk? They don't have thumbs to pick up the knife?" I became lucid, and literally fought my nightmare off. I grabbed candles and started throwing them at the bear until it fell to the ground, then I ripped its head off to find blood - not stuffing - pour out. It was creepy as hell, to say the least.

-- Break away from the dream telling for a second --

We also talked about a way to "induce fear" into yourself. One of the ways was hiding a knife in your house, placing a teddy bear somewhere, and walking around your dark house holding a candle.

-- Back to the dream --

So I picked up a candle and began walking. Every little noise I heard freaked me out. At one point, a lamp - already turned off - unplugged itself and the cord tripped me. I dropped my candle and the lamp shade caught on fire. So now, I have about a 10 feet circular area around me with light, the lamp shade being the middle. (The candle went out and disappeared.) Along with the candle, all furniture, walls, and ceiling disappeared. The only thing I could see was the lamp shade on fire, which wasn't burning up. Everything else around me was literally pitch black, and I couldn't leave the fire's light. I started seeing little red eyes appear around me in the blackness, and eventually I felt as if I would rather be dead than be as scared as I was. I picked up the lamp shade - there was no fire where I grabbed it, for some reason.. - and twirled it around to illuminate the masked figures. When I did, the eyes disappeared along with whatever else was with it. When the light dimmed down again, the eyes reappeared and seemed closer. I couldn't take it anymore, so I tossed the lamp shade at them to reveal - don't laugh - man sized teddy bears with knives. They were all walking toward me and grinning, and appeared to grow much larger as they got closer. I counted 6 bears around me in a circle, tripling my size. They all raised their arms in sync, and came down on me with their knives. A split second before I was hit, the lamp shade came flying back toward me and hit a bear in the back, burning strait through it. I ducked, it went through the next bear, turned around, came back toward me, flew to the right, left, until it went through all of them. They all dropped backwards - again in sync - and revealed the blackness behind them. The lamp shade made 1 final turn and stopped in mid air, as if it wanted me to follow. Naturally, I did. It kept moving away as I walked toward it, but the same pace as me. Then I remember the lamp shade stopping and coming toward me, but after a few seconds, I realized it was me walking toward a man holding the lamp shade. I saw this same exact man in my last couple (non lucid) dreams. He is an old black man with short white hair, and looked very similar to Morgan Freeman. I'm trying to make sure this doesn't sound too humorous, as it was actually very scary at the time. Anyways, I'm pretty sure this is my DG. I've seen him, and last 2 (lucid) dreams, he was with an old black lady. They look like they could be 200. When I walked toward him, he started talking, but I literally heard blabbering, as if he was just going, "blo bla bloom", but it was slurred together so he didn't sound retarded, so to speak. Sort of as if I was disoriented. He pointed at me, and this is when I started noticing that we were sitting in my living room. I was sitting back in my original spot, with the candles around me. He was sitting on the pillow where the teddy bear was, except facing me. Everything was black, the candles barely made any light, except for about an inch of carpet around them. His face was illuminated, but not his body. He picked up a candle and held it to his chest, for me to see that a knife was sticking out of him. He was bleeding badly, and began to cough up blood. He fell strait forward, nearly touching a candle. His back was exposed, and on it a teddy bear holding the knife and grinning an evil grin at me. I jumped backwards over a candle, and reached inside my cough to feel for the knife. To my dismay (and sanity, at that), the knife wasn't there.

-- End of dream --

So what does this dream mean? What do the deeper parts symbolize? Did I find my dream guide? There's a lot of questions that come with my dreams that I can never answer myself. Thank you if you took the time to read this. ^_^ After the dream was over, I didn't really feel scared of it, and it was quite enjoyable to replay as a movie inside my head.
