| I usually don't have good or bad dreams. When I do dream, they're usually weird dreams. I just wanted to know what the weirdest dream you've ever had is. Mine, and I've had it a few times, is where I was at work. |

| Hmmm, I have had a few where my teeth were falling out. I have had a couple where I was in a TV show too. As soon as I can remember some specifics, I will let you know. |

| My weirdest dream was that my dreams were reallity and the real world were dreams! Humm! Would be interesting if it were so! But as one who reads dreams I know that one can not be seperate of the other, life and dreams are connected and to try to seperate them from each other is not a good thing. |

| I have had more dreams with teeth falling out, and sadly, I think I know what it's about. Every time I have that kind of dream, someone in my extended circle of family - friends dies. I just had one a couple weeks ago and my sister in law's mother passed away that same night. The the ones correlate with my father, uncle, and too many others too mention. |

| I know this might sound cold, but count yourself blessed! You have a large collection of those extremely close you love and who love you, as many as the teeth in your mouth. For you to realize the meaning of these dreams is a step to becoming a more rounded person. Dreams are part of life, and life a part of dreams; to separate them from each other is not good, but to understand what part each plays is a gift that can be learned and makes one more aware of just what life is. |

I know, but it is sad for others. |

| I don't think it is the wierdest dream I've had, but it has to be one of the most profound, as I had it over twenty years ago and I still remember it vividly. I believe it played a part in my development of certain fears. (Condensed version) It was about an elderly uncle of mine, who died in his swimming pool. When I went to see him (just a few minutes after he died, his skin still blue and stretched, his short hair grew extremely long in a matter of seconds and then his dead eyes opened and he reached for me. That part of the dream ended right there. But as fate would have it and I kept dreaming about other unrelated topics for the rest of that night, my dead uncle kept appearing, looking at me from a distance with his unseeing eyes. To this day, an elderly dead person still holds a 'special' place in my heart. I work as a detective with the local Sheriff's Department, and there have been many times when I have searched an old abandoned house at night with no light other than my flashlight, and it never fails that somewhere along the line in that place I will shine my light and see a 90 year old dead women, in the halo of just my light, skin drawn taut to her face, and as I get closer her eyes open.... Again, I had this dream when I was under 10 years of age. I am now 32. Go figure. How about it Shadows?  |

| Wow, that is profound. My dream last night could have been one of two things. Either I was dreaming that everything i have dreamed tonight has been the same scenario with different people, or I actually dreamed the ame scenario over and over with different people. strange  |

| If I may jump in. I used to dream about tornadoes (the Wizard of Oz syndrome) as a child. This continued all through college and even infrequently later. Then after my first child was born I remember having a dream where a tornado was coming and I opened the door to it. The vortex was whirling right there before me, but I felt no fear. Slowly the tornado stopped spinning and was gone. Since that time over ten years ago, I've had only one or two dreams with tornadoes and they haven't been scary. I have to believe it has to do with finally feeling in control of my life. What do you say, Shadows? And tell me this, why is it when I dream of my suburban back yard it becomes rambling, overgrown with large trees and totally eerie in nature. And don?t tell me it?s time to cut the grass!  |

I will tend to agree with your gaining control, but not so much your life as those fears you had in the past. The opening of the door symbolizes your acceptance of that which is new ( your child ). Your understanding of your feelings and environment are becoming comfortable to you, but! Your own back yard being still a mystery to you signifies that there is still much in your life that you question, this could be your religious beliefs, your relationships, your job, etc. It is hard to be exact when I am not in contact with the person, so much comes from the aura of that person in interpretation that something might tbe missed by casual interpretaion. I can only give you what you give me. So these are only initial and incomplete interpretations. |

Sounds to me like you watched to much Rod Serling as a child! LOL!!! All kidding aside; You have not come to full grips with death! At the age you were, to be exposed to what you were, can make for memories that are unpleasant. I do not have enough info on this dream to make a clear reading, I am unsure if the role you play as a law officer is part of a dream or your real life. If it is real life it seems to me you do not want death to be present, hence the opening of the eyes. I see you still morn the death of your relative, but I can not read more until I know more. |

Cool observation. I question almost everything about life - mine, others and the general idea of it. |
| Posted by: ranger 23-Sep-2003, 09:03 PM |
| Thanks, Shadows. At least that gives me something to chew on for a while. The rest of the dream is actually quite wierd. You know how they can be...jumping back and forth and full of things that aren't there in the real world. I.E. My uncle never had a swimming pool, and I was too young to remember him when he died. I actually never even remember meeting him. Only remember seeing his picture!!!! |
| Posted by: ranger 23-Sep-2003, 09:07 PM | ||
P.S. That would be the real life part of the story. |
| Posted by: Shadows 23-Sep-2003, 09:46 PM |
| Please let us not turn this into a dream interpretaion thread...I am sure that was not how it was concieved. As I stated above there is more to interpretaion then the revealing of the memories of the dream... If you need interpretaion then we must talk and if possible meet, other wise it will be generalized interpretaion. |

Definitely not trying to. Just kind of going along with the rest of the forum.   |

| I had another strange dream last night. It was a September 11 bombing dream. I was in the second building in one of the basement foors when the plabe hit the first one. Everyone took the stairs to evacuate. At one point the stairwell got more and more narrow to where onl the "inportant" people could go through. I couldn't get through, so I had to stlle for getting out at one of the unsafe floors. strange!  |

| I have weird dreams all the time. In the latest one, I was in WWII. People kept calling me by my mothers maiden name LeBlanc. I see people running and things exploding around me. Then just as I think I'm going to get away from everything I see a huge flash of white light and I wake up. I'm not sure what this means, I do how ever know I had a great uncle that was MIA in WWII. I've seen his picture and I've also gotten a few visits from him in the past. Maybe he's trying to tell me something? |

| Weird dreams huh? Gee, I have my share, but they are not so much weird as intense and lifelike. I have had my share of intense 'moments' in life, and sometimes they sort of follow me into my dreams. I don't really consider the dreams to be all that odd, it's just that I have been told that I tend to be somewhat sonambalistic (?). This was the bane of one old relationship some time ago (before ever meeting my wife, by the way), the fact that I could be found crouched down in the living room, asleep, yet apparently yelling instructions into a radio. It surprised me when I was asked one morning who 'Snakebite' was. This was after a rather ardous TDY assignment, and from what I was told I was down in the living room calling in medivacs in my sleep. This is a good reason for all you guys to take note, if you have this sort of problem consider marrying someone who does not speak English.  It still happens occasionally, when I am under a lot of pressure for instance, but since my wife does not speak english, she just asks me why I was doing the 'Army' thing again. She is definitely more understanding then most women I have ever known, but the fact that there was a war here just 14 years ago is a major factor there. Well, sorry, guess this is now way off topic and will be awaiting my reprimand.  Leo |

| I only remember a few of my dreams, maybe three or four a month. These are usually the most important ones, though. Among the most memorable dreams I've had over the years have been just a handful of flying dreams. I'd love to have more of those. They are just down-right fun. Many years ago I worked in an underground mine for three years. Sometimes when I'm feeling trapped by circumstances beyond my control I'll have dreams that I'm back in the mine. It's no big deal, really. Just a reflection of my response to the current circumstances. I hate dreaming about work. I have to spend enough time on the job while I'm awake and work is weird enough without dream-state distortions. I hate spending all night working just to wake up and have to do it all over again. Quite a few years ago I went through a period where I was regularly haunted by dreams that I referred to as the gallery of horrors. I was working as a street medic in a busy system and ran a lot of truly nasty trauma and cardiac arrest calls back then. My mutilated patients tended to come back to visit way too often, but as time went on and I made my peace with my own mortality they faded away. I haven't had one of those in years. Most of the dreams I remember recently have been pleasant, with no particular pattern. Just my subconscious processing information. |

| you do know what they say about flying dreams don't you swanny? Myr |
| Posted by: Swanny 01-Dec-2003, 02:45 AM |
| No. What do they say about flying dreams, Myr? |
| Posted by: myriad 01-Dec-2003, 08:26 AM |
| That would be the perfect set up for a joke, but unfortunately I don't have a line to finish it with. Anyway, I have heard; and this may be innacurate, that in some Native American beliefs it means that you would have the ability to shift. You would think I would know since it is a major part of my culture, but I have heard differing stories. I used to have those flying dreams when I was a child. I would be in a tree, standing on a limb, looking to the east (I think) and would push off with my feet and soar over the school I went to and over the town it was in. They are as you said a lot of fun and I wish I had them more often. Shadows: has your e-mail been overrun with dreams wanting to be interpreted? How did you come across this great talent of yours and when did you realize you had it? In good humor and great honor, Myr |

| So many weird dreams, so little time. This is the first really weird one that I can remember it happened over 30 years ago and I wrote and essay about it in 8th grade. I was on a cold sandy beach with wave breaking on the shore. It was as if I my initial view had been from out in the water and then I found myself on the beach. The beach was lined with evergreen trees (at this point in my life I did not have any idea that beaches would have anything other than palm trees) I heard a wolf howl in the distance and the next thing that I knew I saw a weir-wolf. He had a bow and arrow and began shooting arrows at me. I crawled up under one of the evergreens and found a bow and quiver of arrows laying their. I picked them up and began returning fire. The assault was to heavy and so I turned and ran. The next thing that I knew I was in my own house upstairs as if I had run their from the beach. I heald the wolf man at bay for a short time at the top of the stairs and then ran again. This time down the stairs and I hid in the closet at the bottom underneath the stairs. I could hear the wolf man pacing out side the closet door and I knew it was just a matter of seconds before I was discovered. I woke up inside the closet underneath the stairs in my house. 3 years later my father and I were in the extreme back country of Ontario Canada. We had been dropped off by a float plane on a lake 50 miles back in the bush. After setting up our base campand we traveled across the lake that we had been dropped on and made about a 1 mile portage to another larger lake. The weather was extremely bad with wind and rain. We put in the larger lake and I looked back as we were busting breakers in the 16 foot v-bottom boat and realized that I was looking at the lake from my dream 3 years earlier. Is that weird enough?
