Dream

I see everything wrapped in plastic wrap, layered several times on top of itself over and over, and everything has a blue hue, then it turns to a green hue. Homer Simpson is twice the size of a Macy's parade balloon, roaming the earth which is now a large glazed donut, which we are on the edge closest to the hole in the middle and we're never going to be able to see his feet. The deities are speaking to be through messages in cloud formations, tree branch placement, and lighting, and I'm hearing the thoughts of animals that seem to have no fear of me and instinctually approach me as a safe space; even a wasp. I'm then able to feel a presence in my throat, and it feels as though it's trying to break through, making it difficult to breathe and swallow. Then I'm hearing two of myself when I speak, but when I try to get evidence, my electronics all fail. I make an appointment to see a dermatologist about a cyst that's grown exponentially over about two years, but when I wake up the next day, I notice someone has rescheduled the appointment to a different day to try and trick me into missing my original one, and I begin to think I have a presence inside the cyst. The more attention I get for the cyst on social media, the stronger I feel this presence.

Dream

Please interpret this dream for me. To clarify, I am a 17 year old female and I felt like I was throughout the dream. Another clarification is that I have no clue if this was a nightmare, but he did have scary elements to it that even spooked me inside the dream. This wasn't a lucid dream, but I don't want to deny it is either. Here's the dream: I woke up on a couch grey in a room. There was a door and it was closed and there was dude that familiar, but I don't recognize him. The 3 walls were covered with curtains and they were made of glass except the wall with the door on it. I think I even saw the city from there. It had red lighting, but I couldn't see LED strips or a light source anywhere which was weird. It was just a square shaped room and there was white countertop that stretched from wall to wall. The countertop was only on the right side of the room. I saw my mother laying against it and it seemed like she was sleeping. I was hooking up with this guy and I was on the countertop. He mentioned to switch rooms for more privacy and I agreed. I felt comfortable anyways and the guy seemed friendly but I had a feeling that he may have been a pimp, not too sure if he was my pimp though. He was wearing regular clothes and I was wearing a top and shorts, but I didn't look down to see what I was wearing exactly. I walked out of the room with this guy into a hallway. It was a small hallway in width, but the ceiling may have been 8 feet tall at most. There were other doors not opened and there was a door at the end of the hallway that did have a light..a green or red light coming from it, assuming that was the exit but I didn't go towards it nor did I feel the need to. We moved to the room next to the room that we were originally in. In the second room had two besides and a window in between. I had one of my bed set furniture in this room. There was a woman on one of the beds and we joined here. The guy was in the middle while we cuddled with him. We talked and then he told me Justin Bieber was there. I got excited and got off the bed. The dude left the room and the door was wide open. I heard something ringing from within the bed. At this point, I had five phones. Three phones were on the counter of my dresser and when I checked the mattresses, and yes there were 5 mattresses, I found my other two phones which is my current phones irl. They were ringing, but I didn't see anyone calling me, it just showed the home screen. I then walked down the hallway and I walked into this room and it looked like it was backstage of a concert. There were sofas, random (I assumed to be) celebrities, mirrors, lights, and it just looked like a normal group dressing room. I know looking in the mirrors we're not a good idea, but I did look into the mirror to fix my hair, and it was one of the most gross things I seen in my life. I started to panic and I was having flashbacks of some sort. Nothing in particular about these flashbacks, but it looked that bad. When I looked at the mirror, my eyes were taking up 90% of the mirror and they were severely droopy to the point of seeing the insides of them. My eyes were red and I could see the tissue inside them and it wasn't a pretty site. After a minute, and I was staring for that long, I turned around and there were more mirrors which I happened to look into by accident and one of the mirrors looked normal but it was overly saturated and then I looked away from that mirror and the last mirror I looked at was still very eery but not as bad as the first one. I got out of that room and my heartbeat was pumping. I was very terrified about those mirrors. I went back to the room I began in and closed my eyes. I never got to meet Justin Bieber in that dream by the way. I woke up from my dream.

Dream

It was like i was in a video game, Bulders Gate 3 to be exact. The world around me was the same, same characters, same creatures, and even some points 3rd person perspective. At the beginning of the dream it was just me adventuring out with no real gaol, just maybe find a town or something? I found a snowy mountainous place and i found my favorite character in the game, a vampire named Astorion. We travled for while and camped in an abandoned store that was in a cave. The next morning we headed back out and met my boyfriend on the road and asked him to join our party. After travling down the road for a while the seanory changed to fields and trees. Eventually we come to a house and talk to the lady of the house who is sitting by the road. We accepted a quest from her. Next thing i knew we were all knocked out. I woke up to us being in a werid purple room with dim lighting. Everyone in our group was passed out lines up on the floor. I saw my boyfriend and thought "i don't know whats happening but i don't want to be away from him. So i crawled over my friends to lay on him, as i did an alien monster from DnD called a mindflayer. It starts to try and collect us when it notices i am conscious. Then it forces on me. I grab to my boyfriend yelling no, when i feel it grab hold and i panic. I mange to thrash it off and run. I dart around the room as it trys to capture me. It said to me "stop resting me", "i am not trying to hurt you", it didnt hurt last time", " just stop running", then it finally caught me. Before i passed out again it said to me "i dont want to hurt you, just listen to what we say. You wont get another chance". When I opened my eyes again I was alone in a room. I got out of the sleeping area and left the room to explore in hopes of finding my boyfriend. After turning so many doors opened and looking around every corner i begain to panic. The mindflayer appeared in what i thought was the kitchen. He told me i needed to calm down that i wasnt going to hurt, that it loved me. It said some more things but i dont remember what it said just that i ran at full speed away scared it was going to catch me again. I looked again more frantically calling this time for my boyfriend. I found some really werid and some scary pockets in the wall i could crawl though. Every time i did i felt like i wasnt supposed to be there even tho it felt so warm, familiar, and comforting. After searching the whole house over again i went back to th3 mindflayer. I dont know what happened afterwards just that it caught me again. Then i woke up.

Dream

So we were going downtown to go to the Deluxx Fluxx for my brothers birthday. I invited Juan, and Jalen. The DF looked different. It was more of an open space on the outside than usual almost like an underground club in the mall type of vibe.. but we were there a little early, I canโ€™t remember exactly why we ended up in a space where we were at n a big house, but the house was kinda filthy, but we made it out n and we sat around and waited. Jalen was there at this moment idk where Juan was but i donโ€™t think heโ€™d shown up yet sooo i decided tho explore the house. I was again, pretty big, but dirty it had the same potential to be an amazing house. I went there the basement and there was water on some parts of the floor, the clothes piled up lighting kinda dim and it had like a mild smell. But it wasnโ€™t too pungent or bad, just smelled like dirty clothes. Jalen was following me so we could explore together we came across this living room, connected to a living room, which felt like one of a few in the home, and I then morphed to being the front security for DF and my dads there at the same time and thereโ€™s a group of people trying to rush through me without showing me proper id and wristband. But my dad was behind and forced those that didnโ€™t listen to get in line and follow rules. Now I remember looking at the wristband colors and they were neon orange. The line got down quickly, then all of a sudden, this little girl, comes running to, almost threw me but I saw her in enough time to grab her and slow her down. She was carrying an armful of purple, blue and green wristbands but not from Deluxx Fluxxโ€ฆ it was for another place inside this โ€œmall-likeโ€ setting we were in. . When I took the them from her she started to cry, and throw a bit of. A tantrum obviously she was underage. I handed the wristband to my dad and he was confused asf lol but took her to the place ehewee the wristbands came from I just recall the colors. And there were different printed font on each one . But anywho I switch back to the house and I was completely nuudeโ€ฆ Jalen was too, as we explored the house a little bit more . In that living room we were in was connected to a bedroom. Now the bedroom was semi decent and clean the living room was ok. I was too focused on where my clothes went. I could hear from outside that space we were in my, siblings talking but the room looked secure the windows were covered we ended up on the bed, just talking I canโ€™t remember about what. But I remember feeling so uncomfortable being fully nude like that in front of him . I ended up walking into the connected living room around the big square wooden table and white couch as I walked around the table I remember feeling like this floor is like fake or unstable like Iโ€™m going to fall through the floor. Boom I was back at DF for a second and it was this group of people coming out. Particularly this heavyset white girl who was talking to me about how much of a great time she going to have and sheโ€™s so excitedโ€ฆ but Iโ€™m kinda confused because the club should be packed, and I swear she was one the stood out firing that rush of people earlier. Anywho I check everyoneโ€™s creditials and allow them inside.. boom weโ€™re back to the living room so Iโ€™m walking around trying to figure out what Iโ€™m feeling under this floor. Iโ€™m not sure how or what triggered it, but a part of Jalen and I conversation triggered the floor begin to sink.. are same time Iโ€™m paying attention to the sounds, and I heard my dads voice outside the room. As Iโ€™m like sinking with the floor but not enough to where I fall through because it stopped at a certain point. (Think an artist coming up from the bottom of the stage to perform) . I could still see the bedroom parts of it and I was trying to climb naked out of the living room space. Now at this moment I donโ€™t think that Jalen is aware from what I remember he was laying there nude on his back but eyes were closed. I started using my feet and the things around me to climb out I used the couch as a boost and gout out and back into the room. I did it after like 4tries. I got back in the bed and he was still laying there and he looks at me and we continue a small conversation. I hear my siblings and dad all outside talking and then I guess he hears them too and kinda panicked for a second. We gave no idea where our clothes are even though we were just talking, it got a little weird lol. So we ended up playing around like wrestling and we both rolled off the bed and laughed. As we were on the floor in front of the brown nightstand he kissed me and said he had to go. K, I was kinda wanting to leave too so I was ok with that. As he stood he grabbed me and put me back in the bed, and he went through all the drawers and closet to found some clothes to throw on. And gave me something to put on too . As he puts on his last piece of clothing the door swings open and Iโ€™m walks my family members Micah, Tony, Kayla,Kylaโ€ฆ I noticed Micah see me as I was nude but like with Tony she was trying to explore other parts of the house but keep Tony from looking at me. He was definitely talking a lot but Kayla and Kyla saw me immediately and came and pith the cover over me from the bed in the meantime then handed me the clothes Jalen had set out to hand to me but it wasnโ€™t the original outfit. It was a new, more fancy one the complimented me great. I looked at Jalen as we tried to be incognito. And skip out the door but he turned and looked at me, and blew a kiss and walked away and out the door. Zip back to the home a bit later and family is there, music is playing itโ€™s dark but itโ€™s a vibe . I was talking to my dad and we were rapping songs together with everyone and reminiscing. Me and my dad started talking shit, which lead to us laughing and then racing around the block and rapping different songs and laughing all at the same time. It felt like it was a music video being shot.

Dream

So, this is another recurring dream that I've had. I essentially wake up in this like small cubicle. It has like fluorescent lighting and bunk beds. There's like no windows and there's just one door. And for some reason, I like wake up and I know I have to go open the door every single time and I go out there. I open the door and it's like this bustling city. The door that I opened becomes like a town home in New York City and there's cars and honking and it's loud. I walk forward and the door closes and for some reason I feel like I have to solve the puzzle like I have to find a key and go back into the room and so I start walking around and I go to open one of these doors and when I open it and I walk inside like I come back out of the same door that I came out of where it's the bustling street again and like the same car zooms by and splashes water and it's like this red car with dice on it. And I go through the dream and keep on trying to find the key, but essentially I keep on going through doors and restarting my dream from the very beginning again, where I open the door from that cubicle and I'm back on the busy street and the red car zooms by and that's it. Essentially I start running after the red car and it goes to this parking garage and the key ends up being in the dice that are hanging from the rear view mirror and that's the key that gets me back through the door and once I open the door, the dream ends.

My Crazy Dream Adventure. Key words: Grace, Tree, Boat, Cats, Baby Gator, Swamp Scene. I walked from a meadow into a tree line that opened up into a beautiful scene of willow trees that cover an island in the middle of a lake. I remember swimming over to it. It was dark outside and there were lighting bugs that lit up the sky that looked like a hue of small fires bursting in night dew fog. When I swam over to the island I saw something in the water, but I was unsure of what it was. When I reached land again I was hoisting myself up onto a brand that had grew down and dipped in the water. I noticed a furry tail and legs that seemed to be a cat or kitten stuck in the tree. (I say stuck because I knew it was on an island) How did it get there? I began to swim over to where I had seen this cat, but I felt something scaly swimming around my feet. I looked down and saw a glimpse of a dark baby gator that was over a foot long swim right over the top of my feet. Then all of a sudden I was on a boat, like one on a bayou. I had dinner with Austin, Candace, Carrie, and Grayson. It was my birthday celebration. The scene changed to a restaurant and parking lot and I had luggage with me that I had to go put in Austinโ€™s convertible parked in front of the building. When we walked back inside we go through some theater doors. I felt very tipsy. When we walk through the doors I notice the floor was sloped downwards and there was games and fun activities and at the bottom was the enterance to the show.

I bump into my friend Shae, who passed away. We begin talking but I canโ€™t remember exactly what was said. I remember being very happy to see him since heโ€™s been dead for a long time. He asks me for a ride and then says heโ€™s just going to go into the store real quick. He soon exits the store with a bag in hand of whatever he needed, which was usually how most of my memories with him go. I then ask if he can wait in the car while I go inside of the store to get some things too. I was in a Wiccan shop but it seemed a little off. There was dim lighting and it looked like more of a pawn shop in a sense. I start looking at the shelves and I start to think of Hecate. As I think of her I see candles with the carvings of the maiden, the crone and the mother. I see the candles in all sorts of colors and then I start picking up some herbs as well with some incense. I am checking the prices and I become a little anxious. I check my bank account to see how much I have but then see there isnโ€™t a lot in my bank account so I start putting stuff back. The man who runs the shop is a man with blue eyes and blonde hair and seems friendly but can kind of tell I may not belong there. He insists on helping me check out but once I see the total is $30 I ask him if there is anyway to take some stuff off to make the total $12 so I can still get a few things but without being outside of my budget. He starts to work with me on the price and takes some things off. I can remember what I end up buying or he lets me keep but then I leave the store and I see a ghost town and itโ€™s snowing. I feel close to home but itโ€™s night time, thereโ€™s snow on the roads and the streetlights are on. I see Shae is frustrated with how long Iโ€™ve taken and heโ€™s telling me to hurry up and get in the car. He was sitting in the drivers but then moves to the passenger when he sees me heading towards him. He started making comments about me taking an hour, and I couldnโ€™t even believe I had taken that long. He wasnโ€™t too mad, he was joking for the most part. We start driving then we see our friend Carter riding his bicycle through the snow. I felt as if this was normal for some reason but Shae insisted we turn around and get him or help him out. (Carter and Shae are brothers) I turn the car around and quickly catch up to Carter. The car is stopped on the side of the road and i get out of the drivers seat while Shae and Carter talk and catch up. I notice that we never got far from the shop and I see some people start walking around in the snow but no cars and everything is quiet. I start to wonder off a bit but then I come back.

Dream

It was weird because I was at a house I somewhat didn't recognize but I knew the layout and my siblings my older sisters my two first cousins and other twin cousins were there as well as my grandmother and my least favorite aunt. So it started off with I think us just talking about being adults and basically I think my two older sisters started smoking or whatever and I wasn't doing that and then it switched I think to me playing outside with all three of my younger cousins my second first cousin and my two twin cousins and then I came back in I think in this dream I was probably like 14-15 because I remember I was getting scolded I think for I think thinking about smoking and drinking and that I think I had hid the fact that I've done it before in the dream and my grandma I think said she better not be doing that and I think that's what my grandma said and my least favorite aunt was also saying that in a few extra stuff that I didn't want to hear and I think I went to bed in this dream and then woke back up and I think I had snuck back outside in the morning but I didn't know my least favorite aunt was outside I did once I heard her voice but I had my headsets on so I just kept walking down the stairs and just didn't just ignored her basically and you know I saw a car drive around the corner like a gray I think Toyota I don't even know it was a great car though, and I kept walking until my aunt had came out of the car and I just pretend to notice her coming out of the car and I said oh Auntie is that you cuz actually sometimes in Waking Life it would take me a minute to notice a person's face even if they're right in front of me even if it's a familiar face my brain works slow like that I don't know what's wrong but in the dream I pretended to notice that I first noticed her and I don't know this part of the dream was kind of weird but as soon as she fast walked right up to me and I had taken off my headsets I think or maybe one ear was just taken off and she hugged me and I felt like she hugged me so tight that I couldn't breathe and then she let me go she snatched my phone out of my hand and I think she walked back to the house too and I think I did that as well but not before I think going down the street to the store and then I came back and the weirdest part is I saw when I came back to the front of the house outside on the front steps my first cousins my twin cousins and my least favorite aunt was all going back inside of the building never knew they left though but I went in with them and when I turned around before going inside the house I mean back in my grandma's house I had seen my second first cousin lighting a cigarette and smoking it which in Waking Life my second first cousin is actually younger than me so I think when I was in Waking Life 14 I think he was 12 so it's odd and it was odd for me to see him smoking and my face was just like what the heck so I went inside and all of a sudden I got this nervous anxiety feeling when my grandmother was talking right and she was having not really an attitude with me but it seems like she was just really upset because I think Auntie made it inside the house first and talk to her about what just happened and I was telling my grandma and fear and panic and I was just trying to make it seem like I wasn't ignoring Auntie the first time I stepped out the house and I told my Grandma I said Grandma no when I stepped out the house I had my headsets on and I couldn't hear auntie and it only took me a minute to notice her when I went around the corner and I think I was mainly in trouble in this dream because the previous night before I went outside I was smoking and drinking I think and I wasn't supposed to I think my sister's or my first cousin had gave it to me and so after that I was explaining also to my grandma that Auntie had snatched my phone and I couldn't call Grandma and I was sitting in Grandma's kitchen and it was weird because grandma doesn't have an island in her kitchen but she did this time and I was sitting in her kitchen and basically I still was trying to Stand My Ground and I felt like crying cuz usually when I tried to like stand up for myself I feel like crying in my Waking Life because it's like nobody everybody keeps repeating stuff and nobody's listening to me so in my dream I kept repeating myself I kept feeling nervous and then all of a sudden I look in the back of me while I'm sitting down and I see my phone in my back pocket I'm like what the and I take it out and I show grandma and I said Grandma it was in my back pocket and it seems like she's not upset with me anymore at this point and she just laughed at my comment but then I think my grandma came into the kitchen and hugged me and then I just woke up it was a very weird Vivid dream on my dreams are vivid I just sometimes forget all the details to them

Dream

Lucid dream at my house Last night I had a very long dream. It started when I was on a boat with a bunch of people and we were in a body of water, sort of like the ocean. There was a shark around us and I think we were all trying to catch it. After a while of chasing it, I finally caught it with a fishing pole and reeled it in. Someone got it with a net, and it was finally killed. Everyone was happy that I caught it, and afterwards we tried to find land to put the boat on. We found this little beach area where there was sand and this dark cave kind of place. We got off the boat and I pushed the boat onto the sand where this boy helped me push it. There were a bunch of people gathered in this little space, including Ryan and Tessa, Laney, and Rory, and a bunch of friends. It wasn't dark out but the setting was dark and durthet along thebsand there was this little jungle woods type of place. I saw some sort of movement behind the trees and my brother saw it too. I think he ran into the woods trying to find the weird movement but then everyone there realized there were coyotes looking at us. The coyotes turned into humans, and they came and ran at us. Everyone tried to fight back, but it wasn't really a fight. I decided to walk into the woods to get away from everything, and I kept finding these dark houses. I would walk in the house, and there would be no one in there. Everything would be dark, but I couldn't really do anything. After walking through the houses, I went in this one, which happened to be my house. I was in my dining room, and my dad appeared in there. The lighting was dark, but you could still see everything in the room. I was walking around the table and there were a bunch of coyotes still in the house. I tried to kick them and fight them, but for some reason I couldn't make contact. I soon ignored them because they weren't doing anything and my dad seemed to be talking to me but I couldn't understand what he was saying. After looking at him and trying to interpret what he was saying, he soon left the room. That's when I realized something was off and my mind realized I was in a dream. I looked at my hands and walked to the chairs under the ceiling fan. It's like my brain knew I was in a dream and I could control it, but it was really hard to take advantage. Every move that I wanted to make slowly happened in a way that wasn't fully my control. I stood there under the fan telling myself to calm down so I wouldn't wake up from the dream. I turned around, and I had no clue what to do because all I was in was my house, and what the heck was I going to do? For some reason, I went in the pantry and I grabbed the Vodka. I smelled it and gagged even though the smell wasn't real. I then filled an ice tray up with it and put it in the fridge. I have no clue why I did that, but I tried to drink it, and it didn't taste like anything and I didn't feel anything. I still didn't know what to do, but I realized I had my phone, and I went up the stairs and kind of laid on the couch. I opened up Instagram and it didn't look quite right. I decided I wanted to try and summon somebody which happened to be the girl that ended our situationship or talking stage. I tried to search up her name in Instagram, but it didn't let me. I tried my hardest to think of her so she would appear next to me, but it never worked. I slowly started to wake up and the dream ended. I failed to summon somebody, but it was an experience to realize I was dreaming. It kind of hurts that she was the first person I thought of that I'd want to see in a dream. Next time, I'll have full control.
