🧭 Direction

Relationships

Consider if you are currently feeling pressure to conform to societal expectations or if you are hiding your true self in some way. If so, it may be time to embrace your individuality and express yourself authentically. If the costume represents a desire for adventure, consider taking a risk or trying something new. However, if the costume represents a desire to escape reality, it may be important to address any underlying issues causing you to want to escape.

❤️ Feelings

The dream of wearing a costume can evoke a sense of excitement and playfulness. It may symbolize a desire to escape from reality and take on a different persona. This dream can also bring feelings of curiosity and intrigue, as the costume allows for exploration and experimentation. Additionally, it may represent a need for self-expression and the freedom to be someone else for a while. Overall, the dream of a costume can elicit a range of emotions, from joy and amusement to a sense of liberation and self-discovery.

Dream

My dream from last night was really weird. It started off on Halloween. I put on my costume before realizing that I had to go to school. The school didn’t allow its students to wear costumes, so I had to take mine off. Once I got to school, it started raining. My teacher talked about Halloween and how she loved it and that she wanted to see everyone’s costumes. Since I left mine at home, I couldn’t show it to her. She said that it was okay, but the assistant teacher came out of nowhere and offered to give me a ride back home so I could grab my costume. For some reason, I decided to take his offer and soon the two of us were in his car. We went to my house and I grabbed my costume from the closet before getting back in the car. The assistant teacher said that I should put it on before he drove to his house. Once at his house, he lead me to the bathroom and told me to put my costume on again. I started to get a little nervous, but I did it anyway. While changing in the bathroom, I noticed just how weird it was. The toilet was right next to the door and had a giant changing table in front of it. I wondered why he had that in the bathroom since he didn’t have a baby, especially one that needed its diaper changed. I also noticed that the sink was small and that the bathtub had a clear shower curtain on it. Anyway, after I was done looking around, I started changing. Suddenly, I heard a commotion above me. It sounded like arguing and was followed by a loud thump. Then, everything in the bathroom activated at once. The toilet, the sink, and the bathtub all turned on and got water all over the place. There was also water leaking from the ceiling. It stopped after a while so I went back to changing into my Halloween costume. Once I was almost done, someone knocked down the bathtub wall and walked into the bathroom. It was the assistant teacher, and he was holding a hammer. I screamed and covered myself up. He told me not to worry and to calm down, then put a hand on my shoulder. I pushed him away and ran out of the house. Once I was far enough, I called my boyfriend and my friends. They decided to take me to a spa to help me relax. While at the spa, I noticed something strange about the owner. After some spying and investigating I learned that she was killing her customers and using them as food for the built in restaurant at her spa. I went to confront her and almost died because of her. Fortunately, I survived and she was arrested. After that, I found a secret passage in the spa that lead to a beautiful looking cave. The cave was full of colorful crystals and flowers that were being watched over by fairies. The fairies congratulated me before setting off a bunch of fireworks. Then, my boyfriend appeared and the two of us watched the fireworks together. And that was where my dream ended. Like I said, it was a weird dream.

Dream

I was in an apartment that looked like a blend of where I live right now and where I used to live growing up. I was spending time with my siblings and Neice in the other room, along with a few unfamiliar friends. I think one of them was related to the late Michael Jackson. I was getting a message from one of my neighbors through the showerhead; they were calling out to me. I opened the window, and a few of them were trying to show me something. I climbed out the window, and they showed me their Halloween costumes. We chatted for a little bit, and they headed out. One of the neighbors is one of my friends involved in my Haitian community group in NC. I asked her to buzz me into the front of the building since I didn't grab my keys when I climbed out. She tried to buzz me in, but I guess that front door didn't match the entrance of my place. Someone was coming out of another entrance right next to it. I confirmed that my unit number was in that building, and they said yes and kept it open so I could come in. I got upstairs to my front door and knocked so my family and friends could let me in. They were confused because I had just gone to my bedroom and bathroom, and I had updated them on what had happened. I remembered the next section of the dream, feeling like I wasn't part of the dream and watching the characters involved. There was a young black man with curly hair and a young black woman. I remembered a scene where a young white boy was at this big celebratory event, and he was scared but also wanted to see his favorite DJ play. He hid away when he was scared, and a team of folks came to find him. They found him and got him back to the crowd. Then, despite his fear, he tries to stow away in the bubble-like flying vehicle to see his favorite DJ perform. But for some reason, the team leader who helped him was still concerned about whether he was okay. I also remembered how the black young man and young black woman got connected. They were in a majority-white place, like a school. I'm pretty sure that during their interactions, the black man started to really like the young woman more than a friend. During their interactions, they started to discover something was afoot in the place where they were. I can't remember what it was, but they started to work together to uncover the truth. The man constantly checked in with the woman to ensure she was okay. The young woman was courageous and willing to do what was needed to uncover the truth. The young black man was also confident and brave, and I remember very comforting and supportive of the young woman as they ventured into revealing what was happening in this institution. In another part of the dream, I interacted with a middle school classmate I hadn't seen in years, and she asked me if I would join the cooking class this year. I told her no because they talk a lot instead of doing more cooking. I prefer fewer speeches and more on-the-job learning. Cooking and interacting with my cooking partner while the instructor provides feedback or corrections, affirmation if we're doing it right, and tips and tricks we can utilize as we cook a dish. During my experience of taking this cooking class, they seemed to talk more and not cook enough. We both laugh about it. I asked her if their style of instruction had changed, and then I would join. She assured me it did not. We giggled, and I stood by, not joining the class. The dream was very pieced out, and I can't remember all the pieces of the dream. I remember going upstairs throughout my dreams for different things. I remember a journalistic theme throughout the dream when the two young black people uncovered the truth and a budding romance formed between them. They also had the feeling of mentorship for the younger students. I remembered interacting with family, unfamiliar friends, and an old middle school classmate. I remembered big crowds and the characters being concerned and checking how folks managed the pressure and what they felt called or desired to do. I remember all the people who followed through on something they were scared of doing or required a lot of pressure.

My recent dream had me and my best friend Amelia in it. I dreamt that I was decorating my apartment for Halloween and I was really excited for what was to come and for her to see it. Then I couldn’t decide what Halloween costume I wanted to wear. We were going to go to a Halloween bar crawl at night. I ended up choosing a fembot costume and the dream ended with me waiting for her to arrive .

Dream

I dreamed my daughter, Kota, wanted me to take them and their friend to a tattoo removal appointment that their friend had set up. While there, I was just laying back in a chair and looking around while their friend was having the tattoo removal done. At one point, I experienced being high on edibles in the dream while at the appointment and started becoming dizzy and disoriented. I was looking through racks of clothes while they were still busy working on the tattoos. I could see their friends tattoos covering the majority of her body. One of my sister in laws showed up and showed me this black, lacy, dress that was a costume of some kind and I had the lucid thought that I was being encouraged to take the dress, but I forced myself to give it back to the shop owners instead. I went to get food while waiting for them to finish the appointment. While eating in my car, a man with a thin face and gray hair appeared at my window and said he had an extra order for me, on the house. I looked up into his eyes and they were a glowing yellow, gold, color and his smile looked sinister. I told him I didn't want it. He walked around the car as if he was going to try to get in my passenger seat. I put the car in drive and started driving away to escape. I got to an area of the parking lot I'd have to turn around to get out on to the street and when I did I saw a vehicle coming towards me. I woke myself up at that point out of fear.

I was some of my family and some friends. We were at this place but I have no idea what it was. There was a guy there that was infected with something. Something evil, not like a sickness. There was this pod like thing and when he saw it he went to grab it so he could get this evil thing out of him. But when he grabbed it, he died. I was terrified and did not want that to happen to me. A little later in the dream I got attacked and the same thing attached itself to me. It was horrible and I knew I was doomed for the rest of my life. I was a slave to it. I was in agony, physically and mentally. It was messing with my emotions and mental state. It was hard to think and physically I was in so much pain. I couldn’t touch anyone and nobody could touch me. My family and friends tried to help me but they couldn’t. Nothing they did helped and they couldn’t touch me. Nothing could help me stop feeling that way except for the devil pills as I call them. I call them that because they had devil faces on them. They were only supposed to alleviate the pain of it for a few minutes. I knew where some where because I had seen someone put a stash of them in a costume head and put it up on a shelf to hide them. I took one from the stash and ate it. Somehow on me, it lasted a long time and I was almost my normal self. Then the scene switched. I was running away from something. I was on a motorcycle or something of the sort and I was running away. From what, I don’t know. But something tells me that it was something to do with what was attached to me. I’ve had this dream before.

So, the part there I start remembering, so I was sitting in the tram, I was on my way home from vacation, and there was little mountains and beautiful sceneries, we were always driving through with the tram, and eventually I made it home, and, oh I'm not sure if I ended up somewhere, where I ended up, but, yeah, then there was, I went to my therapist, I think, and, because she's got a free appointment for me, like a spontaneous one, and, but she didn't expect me, so, first of all, it was like a nice big room, like a nice big flat almost, in a loft apartment, with a nice view and big windows, and receptionists kind of brought me to the room, but she was a bit surprised that I came, and opened the door to my therapist, she was expecting someone else, so she'd already prepared, she was wearing a costume, it was like a weird doppler stripe, and all like, stripes or whatever, which were meant to trigger her, and, I was half naked somehow, I don't know, and, yes, she was a bit embarrassed, and then she realised that, you know, I had an appointment, and then we went somewhere, and we did like a, we did like another thing, it was more intense, more exposure, and, and somehow there were other patients there as well, and we went outside, and in this kind of city escape, and it was a little bit more cuddly than an usual city, somehow, like a bit like, not really comic, comic-ish, but it felt like that, and one of the people was, I'm not sure what his problem was, but he was psychotic, or he had some kind of weird condition, and, and then I just remembered that we were kind of, we went shopping, me and him, and his, his milk, someone just randomly opened his milk that he was pot-purchasing, and I tipped it out, just to trigger him, and he was like, incredibly intrigued by that, and so he started going crazy, and, and people didn't really understand that, so they started trying to, trying to capture him, or something, like police, or whatever, and he is well-versed, so he just started running away, and he, he, yeah, I think, I also remember somehow, we were driving around the tram again, and there was someone else, I don't remember most of the people, honestly, anyway, and he was running through the city at night, and then suddenly I was him, and I was running, running, running, running, and at some point I ended up at a bookshop, sort of, like a really nice cafe, and he said, it was me, that he should go inside, or I went inside, and I just basically said, explained what was going on, as it was the most normal thing in the world, and they were kind of happy, actually, that I went there, I felt comfortable there, and then my dad sat down next to me, it was kind of a statement, and, you know, we waited basically for, I think, I don't know, for the police, or someone else, outside, somehow, and, yeah, we went to my dad's place, to get dinner, and then I kind of woke up.

Dream

I see a futuristic space plane that is taking up a pair of astronauts. The pilot is taking up an older man who has a respiratory disease as part of his treatment. Breathing in zero gravity is part of the treatment. He takes him up for short intervals of about 20min, multiple times a day. Then I see they give his daughter, or grand daughter, a ride into space. The little girl is so happy. My wife and I are there watching from a platform. I see the young girl introduced and I see two women, Lauren and Patty. It's Laurens daughter getting the ride into space. "which one is Patty?" I ask my wife. 'the one in green, in the st. Patrick's day dress. Lauren is in blue. "oh, ok". I say. We smile as the little girl climbs into the space plane, in her homemade space suit/astronaut costume, and gets a ride up into space. The plane tilts up into a vertical launch position and blasts off, flying away into the distance.

I dreamt that there was a change in my job, and we had to stop production for a while. I opened a cabinet door to look for something and there were pieces like screws and plastic bits that were there, unorganised. I was looking for part of a costume for my young adult daughter. I then walked though a door and found myself in my late grandparents’ garage. Their car was missing. We needed that car. I was told the neighbour might be working on it and that they were trying to get it back. I walked out of the back door and was in the back yard near a sectioned off garden. The car was returned but I needed it to be in the garage and it was in the back yard. I needed to drive it through the yard around front. When I started to push the car, which was quite easy, I noticed a white plastic bag on the ground that was shaped like a wasp’s nest, then I saw wasps going into it. So I tried to push the car in a different direction. The I went into the garage to get help and the car was just there. Then I awoke.

My ex-husband and his new ex-wife And our daughter and one of her friends were at a store shopping. They drove and I was in the back seat, barely able to fit into the car. We were all going to the toy store for some reason. My daughter was a child then, in my dream, even though she's in her 30s now. And I've never been with my ex-husband and any of his new partners anywhere. We all get to the toy store and the ex-husband and his new wife were looking for gorilla costumes. I was making sure the other girls were able to shop and for some reason I just knew to also hurry them up because I didn't want them getting left because I knew that my ex-husband would have left them. For some reason, we were walking a long way back to the car, and I watched my ex-husband and his wife pretty much leave us, and I went back to go get my daughter. When I got there, I noticed the one girl was coming up to me looking like she was very worried and I couldn't find my child. Come to find out, she was being held in the toy store by security for inappropriate talk to one of the toys. According to her friend, she was making sexual language to one of the toys. The security guard heard it, and they were now holding her at the toy store. So I had to go back and get my child. And then I woke up.

Dream

There was some type of trip to a planet similar to earth. There were school buses lining everyone up. Then we were on a cruise in the middle of the ocean but there was a spy and I needed to get rid of them. At one point I was in a car driving down a steep hill with a little upward slope. When I got to the bottom the slope propopelled me high in the air, so high that I flew over the Jesus statue in sao Paolo. Then the dream changed to me being home watching a commercial that mentioned taking a trip outer space. Later on when I’m at the port I see a spaceship that kinda just looks like a charter bus. For some reason I’m fighting like an alien of sort in space because aliens were trying to ambush us before we landed on the new planet. It was like a matrix fight in outer space, nobody knew I was outside fighting because they were all distracted. Then we’re in the planet and there’s a cruise ship, we’re taking a trip around the different oceans. I meet a lady on the cruise who looked like this girl I went to high school with, esilona. I don’t know the exact details but something happens on the planet that makes us basically realize we’re all going to die. I have a vision of my family watching the news and crying for me. We are limited on the amount of mail robots, so I can only send one letter to family. I decide not to send a letter immediately since it might be better to send one before I died. The planet is going dark, and shrinking like a deflated ball from the top down. Alien critters have come out and they are eating our food. Esilona and I are on the balcony in the cruise ship, talking about life and reminiscing memories because we know we only have about 6 days left before the planet folds itself and we inevitably die. Well, it turns out that the spies are still here and they infiltrated the cruise. They actually organized a meteor to crash into the planet and kill is all. Turns out that the free tickets we all had to come here was just a ploy and all of us were on some kind of hit list. They’ve been killing people one by one but nobody knows because everyone is too stressed about the world ending. Esilona and I take it upon ourselves to find them and find out if they know how to save us. In real life, we were on a cheer team together, so in the dream, we were doing a lot of acrobatics when fighting the spies. I found a suitcase with a space laptop and sent communication to the USA government that this was all a trap. No response. Meanwhile, the entire world is watching the news daily, hoping that someone would come save us. There is a meteor shower going on between earth and where we are, and it doesn’t seem safe enough for anyone to rescue us. I suddenly because the spokesperson for the group, talking to governments on the space laptop. Clips of the conversation were shared on the news and in my visions I see my entire family sitting in front of the tv. There are candles lit, my grandma is lighting sage, my mom is holding a rosary and praying, my dad and brothers are crying and holding each other. Back on the planet we still have the atmosphere shrinking, air is running low. Esilona and I are laying in a beach looking at the sky, patiently waiting for death to come take us. That’s when I get a vision of seeing the planet from space, and I see different axis, trail of meteors, and a rendezvous point. I run to the cruise ship and yell “is anyone good with their hands?” And an couple of men say they are engineers, blacksmiths, carpenters, etc. together we try to find a way to create a shield around the cruise, hoping that it could float in space and give us more time until spaceships came to get us. It worked, and we managed to launch the ship into space. That’s when I find a piece of paper and some crayons, and I write to my family “mom, dad, Jeff, Mickey, I love you all so much. If I don’t live, know that I tried as hard as I could to save us all” and give it to the last mail robot available. That’s when suddenly there is a loud snap in space, and we see the planet burst into little pieces. Everyone unanimously voted that I was now the captain of the ship, and so I went to the front of the ship with a space costume to sit alone and look at the empty black space sky. I saw about 50 spaceships coming our way to save us so I ran inside to tell everyone to be prepared for rescue. Then our ship imploded. The force field couldn’t contain the pressure of space anymore. We all die. But then I wake up on a beach in what I think is some kind of deserted island. Turns out that the implosion took us to different timelines on earth because we fell into a black hole. The island that I washed up on was actually a military site, and the scientist there knew that I would be coming. Together we work to predict this ploy to send passengers to their death in the new planet. And I realize that my dream just looped, and now I can stop it all from happening.
