Dream

I had a dream that I owned my own house and my husband who was my boyfriend in my dream lived with me. One day I caught his ex girlfriends mom walking around my property smiling and trying to intimidate me. She planned on getting her daughter and my boyfriend back together. She then proceeded to approach my son and ask him if he was hungry while he was outside. My son said yes and she ordered him food. I made my son come inside. I told Jarred to handle the situation to make her leave and he went outside to talk to her then came back inside the house. The woman still didn’t leave. I asked Jarred why and they had some past business and wouldn’t tell her to leave and wouldn’t tell me the reason why she didn’t make her leave. My boyfriend kept saying “she’s really nice, I don’t want to kick her off the property.” I got upset and told him he needs to get her off the property now. The food she ordered was delivered and I threw it in the trash. My mom was inside my kitchen and was defending the woman saying “ well if shes nice I should let her stay and I shouldn’t of thrown away the food.” I told her I don’t care and his ex’s mom on my property was not happening. So, I confronted her outside telling her this is my home and she needed to leave. In my dream this women was a drug dealer and Jarred had done something in the past with her that currently needed his attention to continue to hide. I was not told his in the dream it’s something I figured out. I told the woman to leave and she just laughed saying Jarred lives here and legally she doesn’t have to leave because he doesn’t want her to leave. I told her I was calling the cops. She told me to be careful who I was messing with. I told her she should be careful she didn’t know who she was messing with. The whole dream I didn’t back down and was ready to break up with Jarred if he didn’t communicate with me why he wouldn’t make her leave or make her leave. I started recording her behavior on my property to give to the police while Jarred wouldn’t help me. The police came and I lied and told them Jarred was just visiting and that he didn’t live there, and I wanted her off my property. The police respected me as the owner and forced the woman to finally leave. When she left she to pop my tire to my car. So I did a spell and made her have trouble with her job. When she came back on my property she asked me how my car was doing and I told her Jarred fixed my car and it was an easy fix. I then asked her how her job demotion went and it was that moment she realized that was because of me. She threatened me again and I told her that I’m defending my home just like she was and she attacked me first. She actually understood this and said she was impressed by me. She had her kids at my house and they passed on a contagious virus where I got hundreds of little hexagons on my feet that were extremely itchy. Later in my dream I stalked this woman on Facebook and found it was hard to understand what everyone was posting about because it was in a different language and extreme slang. One point one of my friends set up a punching dummy in the corner of the living room when it was dark in the room. This was the dummy would jump out and punch and my son could practice fighting for himself. I liked the dark but I didn’t like how long the delay was for the dummy coming out of the corner of the room. I still thanked my friend because it was what my son asked for.

Church
Dead
Scream

Dream

Started by being next to an old church, a man dressed as a police officer from mid-1800s was stood there keeping everyone back who also appeared to be from the mid-1800's. People were talking about a body being found in the grave yard around the church and whispers of murder. After a while a man and two children, looking around 5 and 10, led me away, and the children headed home as we separated and I went with the man. It jumped to the following morning and I was once again going to the church. Another child was there, young around 6 or 7. I approached and asked where the original 2 children were, as I had the feeling I was expecting them there. He took me by the hand and led me to the graveyard where I saw them both through mist and just started screaming 'No' over and over. Dream ended as I dropped to my knees.

Dream

I was pregnant. I was with Carson and we were talking about what the name would be, I got to choose if it was a girl, he got to choose if it was a boy. I didn't like the name he picked out, and since we already had one kid (from a previous dream) that was a boy, and if this was a boy, maybe I would get to choose. He reluctantly agreed. I went into labor so we went to the hospital. The doctors were clearing out a special room for me but no one would tell me why, but the doctor said it was so they could fit more people in there so they could watch. When I finally got to the room, they were taking out the normal bed and replaced it with an archaic wooden table with straps. I asked the doctor what was going on. He said I didn't have a cervix and that was rare and he wanted people to watch. I was freaking out because I didn't like the wooden table. My mom showed up and tried to calm me down. I kept freaking out because I didn't know what was going on. Finally, a female doctor came in to see what was wrong and I told her I didn't want to give birth like this. After a few minutes of discussion, she decided she was going to take over instead of the other doctor, and she brought in a normal hospital bed and took out the wooden one. I was laying on the bed and asking the doctor questions (it was established that we've been acquaintances since elementary school). I asked her if I was gonna be able to push out the baby without a cervix. She said we'll figure it out. My mom wasn't happy with that answer, but I told my mom I trusted this doctor. The doctor told me that it's good I have a second kid now because the first one wasn't getting stimulated enough. (From a previous dream, I had someone else watch him and as far as I knew, he only stayed in one room of the house. I realized I hadn't seen him in so long and I was questioning if I was good enough to even have another kid) I gave birth fairly easily, but after a few moments of crying, the baby stopped and he couldn't breathe. They tried clearing his airways and I asked my doctor if this was my fault. She told me no and that this is just a complication that happens sometimes.

Dream

In my dream, my eldest child, Kota, took some kind of drug they were given by their friend (it should be noted that in reality, my child hasn't ever tried drugs and doesn't drink) and ended up kidnapping several kids, ranging in ages from 2 - 7, and bringing them to my house for safe keeping. In the dream, I lived in a big house deep in the forest with my husband and my youngest daughter. In the dream, I found out what was going on because I woke up (in the dream) to a little blonde girl on the side of my bed talking to me like I was her mom. I immediately got up and held her because she was crying, and started asking questions about what was going on. She told me some girl had brought her and others here and she missed her mommy. I found Kota and got angry, yelling that kidnapping is illegal and these kids are terrified and want to go home. Kota was still high on whatever drug they were given - by thar point, the messaging seemed to be that it was a fairy who had drugged them and it was the fairy's drug that was making Kota believe these kids needed to be saved. I told Kota that they'd lost their mind and they either need to return the kids, or I'd call the police. They kept saying I don't understand. I started walking around to figure out how many kids were there (I interacted with 3). When I tried to round up everyone to get to a car so i could return them to their homes, female lions and a bear showed up outside the house and were just blocking the exit, preventing us from leaving. I woke up from the dream still trying to figure out a way to return the children.

Breaking up
Child
Friend

Dream

I was talking to Kim about no longer being committed to each other for just her and I, we were splitting up but remaining under one roof, having seperate rooms. She seemed to agree that things weren't working and that we had changed and agreed living under the one roof for the kids made sense. She made a comment about how I want a daughter so much that I could now go out and find a new woman to do that with, as Kim refuses to have another child. I was suprised. As news eventually got out that I was now single, I started getting asked by multiple women to meet for coffee dates, including old friends who I thought I was friendzoned with. As I explained the situation and living arrangements with each, they all seemed okay and really cool with it. I half expected to hear from Heather, but it was only early on in the time frame of being single. So I assumed she hadn't heard yet. Heather's ex, told me he's still having therapy for mental health after their split. And said the best thing to do is try to forget about her. I Said, more than anything I didn't care for her as a partner at this stage, as I missed her as a friend more.

Beach

Dream

I was 17 again. I was hanging out with Ravane. She was kind of liking this nice guy we met at this place. (It was like a hangout zone for teens, sort of like a mall. But no one was shopping where we were. Also there was a beach lake like Nashville shores outside) we were walking around and decided to sit at a table. Then I spot Alexander. My other bff. I felt some distance in our relationship at this moment so I rushed over to him( probably because I haven’t seen him since high school, 12 years ago!!) I brought him back to the table Ravane and the guy who liked her were sitting at. I sit next to Alex. We got along well and he made me laugh so hard like he always use to. We all 3 got up and decided we are going outside to the beach (it looked just like Nashville Shores, lots of trash) we picked up the trash a little bit but stopped because there was too much, so I decided I was going to tell our RWB group we should do a volunteer trash pick up one day to clean up the beach. We walked along and it was 11 before we knew it. Ravane and me and Alex walked to her car. I spotted this girl look at Ravane, but her hair up, get 2 other friends and rush outside to fight us. I told her we need to get in the car quick because I saw what was about to happen. We do and she drives off in the other direction. We start laughing and we thought the girl was just jealous because Ravane didn’t do anything. Suddenly I was in an old ghetto apartment building that was falling apart. I couldn’t find Ravane and thought maybe this is where she lives now? It was scary inside. So I walked and my feet felt very heavy. I walked to the end of the hall where a little boy about 4 years old threw a ball at me and just stared at me. I had a creeping feeling someone was following right behind me, so I followed the boy into the open apartment door. It was all burned and black inside. Aunt Terra (Ravane aunt and caretaker in high school) was on a burned bed sitting up. I asked where Ravane was and she said oh sweetie, she’s been dead for years remember? She reached for my hand as I began to sob. She told me she hears All the calls and cries for Ravane. Many people morn her. She started playing my voicemails I left her. I sob so hard I wake up in real life crying. I miss you Ravane. And I miss being 17.
