Thread: Moving around like an animal...

So I keep having dreams that I move around on all 4 limbs like a tiger/lion/any creature that moves on all limbs. It's awesome because I can cover a LOT more ground, and can jump over stuff no problem.

Had a dream last night where I was coming out of the pool at my neighborhood (which I think marks the first time I've had a dream about this new place) and started showing my friends how awesome it is in some grassy area here. Then there was a festival going on and I jumped over a crowd of people, and ended up jumping so high that I was able to do do a slow front flip.

Then after that, I woke up in the dream (I think) and told people about this dream I had where I could do that, and started demonstrating it again.

Is some part of me trying to tell me something? I love it when I have this dream because it feels amazing to move around like that. I wish I could do it in real life without looking like an idiot.

That's really cool man. I did have a dream like yours maybe a couple of months ago. I was like a gorilla rampaging the streets then I climbed this tall building with ease, it was one awesome dream.

That is so cool, I just think it's an awesome dream, rather than it having much meaning, think about what has happened recently to you, and whether it represents any meaning to an event.

I can't think of anything in particular that has happened to me to cause me to move around like that

I tried to do this in real life a couple of minutes ago and I can't do it like I can in my dreams.

I've done it many times. Did you feel like you actually were an animal, or like you actually had 4 legs?

In my "crawling" dreams I'm definitely human, but fir whatever reason my legs don't seem to be working very well, and I find I can move a lot faster if I hunker down and get a grip on the ground with my hands for an assist. And I literally do feel like I"m gripping the ground, as if it's covered with paving stones that stick up pretty far.

In some extreme cases I actually let me legs just float in the air behind me, which lessens their drag on me. This is an awesome mode of travel!! My head is down a few inches over the ground, my legs floating up high behind me, and I'm doing arm-sprints!

In my dreams it just feels like I'm getting down on the ground and moving around like an animal with my own limbs. My legs/arms MIGHT be longer, but I'm not entirely sure. Next time I have this dream I will look out for that. I wish I could have an LD about it.
