Dream

I dreamt of an apocalypse coming but it wasn't like a zombie apocalypse it was like worms would invade someone's body through their mouth, their nose, their eyes, their ears and essentially like take over their body and try to attack you and I remember we were trying to cure them it was me and like four other people I only remember one of them being my friend I don't really remember the other few people but they were trying to attack us but we were also trying to help them because there was some way we could help them and I remember we helped two older ladies but like I could see from different perspectives of the different people and like they were being swarmed like there was this one guy who had to jump on top of a horde of people chasing him and trying to attack him and he had to jump on top of them and then out a window and then onto a balcony to escape them and I also remember we were going into a house after running away from them and we go into an elevator to try to get to our floor where our little lounge area is and two people are in the elevator with me and we're waiting on the other two but they're not coming fast enough so I'm like oh maybe we can take the other elevator because we need to go because like the horde was like coming towards the elevator door and so I press like close the elevator button um and the other two people are like what the fuck and they get out of the elevator and then I'm the only one in there and one of the little girl that I assume has a worm infection she comes in starts talking to me and I have to hold her against the elevator wall to make sure that I stay safe and I go up by myself and then once I get up there I start like barricading our area to make sure nobody gets in that's not supposed to be in and there's another time switch and I am I wake up on a roof and I guess I'm on the roof to kind of protect myself from like I expect they can't get up there with me the infected people and it starts raining and I woke up because there were worms in my mouth it's raining worms and blood and so I quickly get up and I go to jump off the roof so I can enter the house that I'm laying on and three women with the worm infection like bust out of the house and they start trying to come towards me but they all look really sad like they look cognizant and they're throwing up violently they're throwing up worms and they're trying to get it out of them but each one of them passes out and the last one passes out in my lap and I'm sitting there trying to help her but I don't know what to do

Dream

I am driving ba k from an event with my mom really late and I stop at a familiar pizza place we used to go to. I tell my mom to stay in the car while I go in to see if they are still open. They were closed so I walk back to the car and ther are 4 men with guns trying to steal the car. I jump in the car and I tell them no. They start yelling and saying they will shoot us if we do not get out of the car. I tell back and say those guns aren’t even real. They then try to convince me that they are real and shoot someone in the distance but the person did not get hit. I tell my mom not to move but she gets out of the car anyway and the thief’s steal the car. We need up getting help from the pizza place employees and they let us use their phone. My mom gets a ride and I end up at my friends house. While telling my friends what happened I lose my phone so I am freaking out because I need to go to school in the morning but I don’t have my phone to get a ride. I end up going to sleep and wake up and my friend is still there. I am looking for my phone on the room and I see a frantic monkey and another animal trying to get out of the window. I pry the window open and let them out and go downstairs where my friend is. We end up going outside and it looks like a post apocalyptic world. My friend grabs a shopping cart and start gathering supplies she sees on the street while we try to find other people. We walk and see other people and it looks like some kind of market. While trying to ask people what is going on a lady tries to steal stuff out of our cart. I caught her and take the items back. Someone else sees this and accuses me of stealing. I then wake up.

Bedroom

Dream

Had a dream where it seems a force was after my mom. We were walking on a sunny day outside of what looked like various stores. Two of my aunties were not feeling too well and mom were notified about this. The dream then changed to living room & bed room. Mom was sitting on a couch telling me she was only one person and she could take but so much. I promised then to protect my mom. Mom then lied down to go to sleep. Various manisfestations started appearing and I started fighting. A young caucasian couple helped me too at the end. I think they were from a scary movie where they had to fight as well. I walked out of the room where mom was sleeping & i peeper in every now & then from the living room but i did go too far. In the bed next to my mom’s was what looked like a baby but i knew better. It was something sinister that looked like a baby. I grabbed it & threw it onto the floor and punch it until it was no longer there. One of my aunts was surprised cuz she thought it was a baby but i told her it wasnt. I looked back in my moms room & a lady that looked like my mom was lying next to her but she was much, much older & she had grey hair. She was holding my mom s hands. I immediately pulled her off my mom & folded her in half as if she were clothing. My mom seemed peaceful. But then, as she slept, two small snakes appeared in the nearby bed. I immediately grabbed them & pulled them apart. I even bit them. Several others were on moms blanket. Me & the young couple started pulling them off mom s blanket and destroying them. I woke up knowing that although i may be battling through grief & my own battling with my sexuality, i know that my mom too is grieving. While i lost my grandpa and grandmother, they were here parents for 60 plus years. I woke up knowing that i would fight for my mom & i know i need to fight for myself too

Job

Dream

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.

Dream

I had a dream that took place post apocalypse, and the survivors were on a levitating ship and once in a while, we would go on ground missions, except it was extremely dangerous. I went on a few of those missions and a couple of times they were very close calls. But then my whole family went down to the ground and we drove a car up to the top of a steep hill where there was a house. we were all in a van driving up to this house, but it was so steep that it was like driving up a wall and somehow the car could do it. But it was terrifying. Me and my family and a couple of my families old friends were in the van.. once we got to the top I grabbed hold of a branch because I wasn’t sure how I was supposed to walk up the hill but somehow I did. We all made it to the top where the house was. It was like a cabin. It was like what id experienced as a child. My dad’s friends were hyper conservative and Christian and everything around me was a blueprint of that lifestyle I experienced growing up. We went inside the cabin and They all sat down at a table but I was more corner in a room full of clothes. I was browsing the close when I saw a chest in the middle of the room. It intrigued me so I opened the chest and found my old dress up clothes from when I was a child. I found the dresses my sisters and I used to dress up in. The deeper I searched the chest the more special the clothes I found. I pulled out fairy wings we used to dress up in and I smelled them. I smelled the clothes and it smelled just like my childhood. Like nothing happened and I remember the same scent. I was surprised I could recall the smell in a dream and once I realized I was dreaming I woke up.

Dream

The world is in a zombie apocalypse where my family and I have found a group to roam with. My mother and I are at a nearby store with our weapons when I'm telling her that i recently saw my groups doctor about my siezures, and she told me to restrict when I take my siezure medicine, but to make sure I still take it often, mostly at night. My mother is looking through medicine in the store while I tell her this, and that I took some medication the night before. She gets a little mad and says "you have to be careful when you take it because we can't just find this medicine easily now with the pandemic. We got lucky today". I'm about to reply when we hear the sirens that tell us a zombie hoard is approaching. Us and the others line up to the glass windows and towards the glass door to defend ourselves. My mother points ger gun to the door while I get my comat knives. Three kids run in to the front entry way where they block themselves with the first glass door but don't come in to the one we are blocking yet because they're waiting on someone else. I notice the zombies are too close and that they'll get hurt so I sheath my knives, run through the first door in to the entry way with them to grab the small handle to keep the first door closed. The zombies get to the door and start pushing. "My dad! My dad's still out there!" One of the kids yell. I brace my feet against the non-wall area next to the door, grab the handle and struggle to keep pulling the door closed. I look through the zombie hoard as i continue to fight the door and keep it closed. " i see him! I see him! Hes running to the other side of the road! Kids, get in the other door!" I shout. The kids are about to cry and look terrified. "Kids! Get in the other door!!" I yell louder as the door starts to open more and more because im not strong enough to keep it closed against all the zombies that are there now. They finally turn around and run through the next door my mother and other people from our group are protecting. I continue to brace the door closed until theres not as many zombies on the other side and run in behind them. As im panting i look around to make sure everyones alright. "That was the easy one. The next hoard coming will be even worse" someone says. I look over to the young boy whose father is across the street and see him bawling. Suddenly im brave again, i grab a bigger weapon on my way out as im running to go back out. I start to run across the street. I hear another group of zombies approaching but i also hear gun shots as someone from my building is on the roof helping me by shooting zombies that are getting close to me. I smile up at them, then reach the building i saw the father go in to. I break down two boards covering a higher up window and slide in. Whwn i do im in a dark slightly run down building. I eventually find two men who tell me that unfortunely when they saved the boys father, it was discovered he had been bitten by a zombie somewhwre that made it to him being not able to be saved. Zombies start attacking the building so the three of us defend ourselves until the hoard moves on. It becomes night so we all agree to take shifts guarding the building until morning when we'll be able to cross back over to where my family is. I agree to take the first shift. As I'm making my rounds in the dark I suddenly start to hear some noises coming from another room. When I approach I realize it's noises of an aggravated zombie, and that it's coming from the room the two men are sleeping in. I take out my knife and slowly approach them trying to figure out if either one of them has been bitten. I quickly realize neither of them are making the noises. As I relax, I'm half-way to putting my knife away when I hear the noises again. I start to approach it, and I turn the corner to see my young son sleeping on the floor. I'm angry at him for following me, and shocked to see him there. I start to go wake him up when i notice he's moving alot in his sleep and that the noise is coming from him. I go to wake him up, thinking he's having a nightmare, when suddenly he pops up. He's looking at me with red eyes and growling at me

Apocalypse
Blood
Bully
College
Family
Saving someone

Dream

A girl who used to bully me from school was in my dream; We were friends prior to her bullying me and she made new friends and pretended i didn't exist. I became rich and powerful and she was jealous, and wanted to destroy my life by coming back in it. She made a new friend and that new friend wanted to be my friend as well. Fast forward I had a memory in the dream(wasn't a memory from my waking life), about her and me hanging out in the back of the school bus. The school bus drove us around town. And then the world became somewhat apocalyptic. But it was because of me. I owned a huge mansion. And I went upstairs to hang with my dream girlfriend, and I was on my period, she was afraid of blood, and when she saw the blood beneath her because my flow was extremely heavy she panicked. I told her don't worry becausey ex boyfriend-I was referring to my boyfriend I know in my waking life, was afraid of blood too(he actually is afraid of blood). And I gave her a regimine an exercise to help her get over her fear so she wouldn't focus on the blood too much. She was changing out the sheet and I told her the sheet was too light and that my flow was heavy enough to sleep through. So we tried switching to a darker sheet. I get a phone call from my grandma and she said my aunt was doing something then I asked her about my cousin who attempted suicide, I asked her where he was , she said my aunt paid for him a hotel where he was alone. I ran to check on him yet he ignored me. I blamed my aunt for not taking care of him and trapped my family and Bullies in my mansions basement. And other random people before I injected them with something that would turn them into venom monsters. I ran away because I got scared I'd become one and many of them tried to escape. I saved one little girl though so she could become a black barbie girl. Her original mother tried to come in and save her too, but I was so powerful I swatted her away. It then fast forward to me working at a waffle house and being in a college. I went into the room and I noticed it was very sexual. There was big booty women and women of all shapes and colors(at this point it became a wet dream.) And I was telling someone my butt was getting bigger and I didn't know why.

Dream

I was trapped within a massive building facility that had outside fields. There was a lot of people all panicking and trying to escape but they could not so I had to try and figure a wag out. Some people were being killed for trying to escape as when they got passed a point in the field they would die. There was army soldiers all around this area killing people and trying to keep everyone inside including me. We all ended up in the controlled area for so long that there was a apocalyptic setting to it and we all split into different clans. My boyfriend was with me at one point and asked if we should get matching butterfly tattoos and then I agreed. After this it was like a war zone and I had to try and escape without getting caught. There were bombs and explosions and a lot of people dying.

Apocalypse
Fire
Car
Building (Action)
Dog
Mall

Dream

An apocalyptic scene where people are freaking out and just started to kill and hurt eachother. I had one of my dogs, Squeak, but didn't have either cat or or other dog Kira. Originally I was with random people but then ran into Laurie who was with colleagues. We then found Dan her husband. We were all at the mall and finally were able to get in touch with Cory who was driving there to meet us. Someone hit his car while driving and he was trying to make it inside the mall. We got separated, I didn't know where anyone was but I still had Squeak with me. She's a tiny white, black, and brown Chihuahua. Usually she tries to bite me if I hold her too tight, but she could tell something was wrong and was just behaving. I ended up sleeping under bar stools between them and the bar behind me. There was a curtain that also hung down from the bar, so I was decently hidden. When I woke up things were incredibly destroyed but squeak and I were okay. I sat quietly listening to people talking and heard a lot of people talking about this big building attached to the mall that was the place. You need to prove you were strong enough to join by clicking a net up to bang a drum, but once you are in you have a community of people, power, gas, food, and water. So I went and when I got there I ran into Dan and Laurie again. They told me that Cory was already here and just inside. I ran in and found him quickly and couldn't stop hugging and holding him. He was so happy that squeak was there too. Someone said they thought they had seen Kira so I in started to run around calling her and eventually did find her. I gave them to Cory and went to do the net challenge. After that there was a meeting of everyone in the building so I went to that but wasn't with anyone I knew and didn't have my dogs. While in the meeting, something started to happen and people kept getting up and leaving. You could hear people screaming and freaking out. The building was on fire and we were near the top. I frantically looked for Cory and our dogs. Eventually I found Cory Dan and Laurie and Cory had our dogs. We got into my car and I sped away, hitting things and doing crazy jumps. We ended up somewhere else in another building but it's so fuzzy for the rest of the dream. The only thing I can remember is squeak finding hiding places, similar to a chipmunk hiding their nuts. And it make me do sad.
