Dream About Life As Simulation

This was a dream that also recurred later the same night. I discovered Life is a Simulation. The discovery came after a day full of perceived “wins” of things I did and had done throughout the day, and even for things not possible to “win” in their nature. This is how the dream went: My day comprised of writing and filing paperwork, giving a lecture/speech to a very large crowd of people that stood in front of me, and being interjected into an active game by someone random who showed up out of nowhere and was not even a player in that game. This person physically placed me by my shoulders into the player circle telling me I was going to do great, and I was being cheered on by the actual players for my turn. I made a single move during my turn which then made me win the whole game. Everyone boomed with excitement and cheer, and they started to all carry me (like crowd surfing) to party and celebrate. During my whole day I was in an emotional state of neutrality, did not feel anything but was aware and focused on everything happening. While being carried I began to feel joyful and proud, it was the first I felt anything emotionally throughout the entire time. All the actions I took throughout the day were being celebrated as winning. Immediately after those feelings began however, everything and my surroundings went blank. The entire world was gone in an instant. I was still in the position of how I was being carried but was no longer in the air because there was no “air”, there was no gravity nor dimensional space, and I was alone. I was within and surrounded by an ocean blue-colored empty and expanding space. Suddenly there began a revelation of life’s“codes” but it was not a numerical or alphabetical type, it was a different type made of varying strange symbols. It was all around me in the entire upper half of the space, the codes were neon blue-green and threaded within and in-between many long wavy lines, similar to a music sheet and the symbols were like notes, and the entire phenomena was bright and wavy like the aurora borealis. I got turned around and began moving through and around individual circular sections, of which were of people at tables and in the moment of them doing different varieties of activities and actions. There were differing numbers of people within each section depending on what they were doing. These actions and activities included: 1) Social encounters and interactions. There were positive, negative, and neutral situations. There were only 2 positive ones, multiple negative ones, but majority were neutral. I was involved in a few encounters but was mainly an observer passing through. One case, for instance, was of two people giving each other the thumbs up while standing face to face, and doing so at the same exact time, and with soft smiles. Another instance was a small group of girls rejecting another girl from their friend group, jumping away laughing afterwards. There were overarching themes to the interactions and are comprised of: career, friendship, liking/fondness (yet there was no theme of love or romance), power, and healing; this knowledge was discernible to me during the dream. 2) Games, but not any of the typical games like cards, poker, or board games. Rather these were all more complex semblances of games, as they required extra steps, strategies, critical and/or imaginative thinking, and cooperation/teamwork with the other players. These games were also continuous: all of them were played over rounds, with each round comprising of multiple successive levels to complete. I was an observer for all these games. For some games, the levels escalated in difficulty for the game’s initial objective. In other games, each advancing level would switch to a completely new and unique activity than that of the prior level. If observing this type of game from the outside, they appeared as totally different and new games from their original version, yet they’re actually the same games that they started playing initially. Games never seemed to reset to the beginning, and the ordeal felt familiar to that of a tournament. Winning was achieved by a single person per game when they completed the levels and rounds. I did not understand what the actual rules or means to winning were, especially since they were all multiplayered and every person seemed to be involved. 3) Job tasks, such as paperwork, meetings, presentations, and speeches. I observed 3 people in a meeting and then also a person doing paperwork shredding All of these activities were encountered in no specific order or rank. These sections were all around me: in front, to the sides, diagonally. I was gliding past them in a slow-to-normal speed and would stop briefly to view and observe whichever ones were in front of me. There were more that I didn’t watch or stop at, because they were behind and farther out from the sections closest to me, but I could see their presence in the distance. What I was very aware of was that everything I was being shown, no matter the outcome, were instances of winning. And I was there because I had won during my day. Once I got to the end I was turned around again. I was now very, very closely face to face with a grey alien. It did not scare me, it did not make me feel anything. It just looked at me as I looked back at it. There was nothing else around or surrounding us. Its eyes were lime green, it had a bigger head and I did not see its body because of how close it was to me. A big open circle then appeared behind the alien, similar to a large halo but from the back of the head and some distance behind, and it was thick in line weight. It was also grey but a different tone and shade than the alien. The circle was a medium true grey, and the alien was brown-grey. The alien and circle began to shrink as if I was falling away from them, until I found myself back on earth where I was before. The crowd of people carrying me were gone, only numbers of strangers going about their business were around the area. I was about to start heading home when a few seconds later a giant Sun starts falling towards earth. Nobody except me notices it until it engulfs the majority of the sky. Everyone starts to panic and run, there are a few people standing in front of me out in the distance just staring at it, one of them with their arms stretched upwards in a relaxed way. Right before the sun would have crashed, it instead tore open and exploded violently above us all. It happened slowly for an explosion and it was spewing its yellowy-orange contents. It didn’t kill any people but the whole biological environment was destroyed and on fire in places. It turned the world into some sort of apocalyptic hellscape of yellow-orangey sky and a bright orange inorganic ground (the ground was not made of dirt or any organic material). There were bare trunks of trees and skeletons of plants remaining but they weren’t the same types of trees or plants as before. There were still the same buildings and structures, but they were stripped of their colors and decorations. Chaos ensued and everyone was running around like wild animals, although they weren’t screaming or making any sounds, just running very quickly and jumping all over the place. The only sounds were coming from the few people who had stood and stared while the sun fell and exploded. They were weeping. The one guy who had his arms up was yelling and cursing about the outcome, which I interpreted as him being upset he didn’t die from the incident. I attempted to change outcome in the second dream that recurred. I tried to keep Sun intact right before the expected explosion, and I succeeded and the Sun went back to normal. But then the world heavily started glitching out, and everything turned into the same apocalyptic hellscape as before, only this time there were thousand of small red candy cane-type shapes scattered around & everywhere in the sky and environment, and they were completely still and stationary. The buildings and structures were no longer the same either, they had all been replaced with different looking ones and a different layout. There were no people left. After a few moments of looking around, suddenly everything reset to the way the world was before I tried fixing the sun. The dream then ended the same way as it did the first time, with the sun falling and exploding, but there was only darkness after that. That concluded the dream.
