🧭 Direction

Daily events

Don't allow yourself to be filled with regret and shame from your past; it will cloud your mind and cause you to miss the truth. Instead, detect the valuable insights from this past that will help you prepare for the future. Criticizing yourself will not help; learning from your mistakes with grace will lead to peace and confidence. Do not repeat the mistakes of the past.

❤️ Feelings

The dream about the past may evoke feelings of nostalgia, reflection, or even regret. It can bring up emotions associated with longing for a simpler time or a desire to revisit certain memories. This dream may also elicit a sense of melancholy or wistfulness as it reminds us of moments that have passed and cannot be relived. Additionally, it might stir up unresolved emotions or unresolved issues from the past, leading to a mix of emotions such as sadness, happiness, or even confusion. Overall, the dream about the past can elicit a range of complex and sometimes bittersweet feelings.

Sister

Dream

So last night I had this dream and the dream was took place here at the house that I live in now. In the house that I live in it is myself and my sister and my six-year-old niece and this house actually is one of my father's properties. In this particular dream, my sister comes upstairs and she begins to move things out of my office. Currently my sister is pregnant and we've been having a conversation about... She's been wanting to rearrange the house to accommodate for the baby. In this particular dream, I was in my room upstairs and she was in my office upstairs and she began to go in the office and take things out. She began taking things out to make room for the baby. I became very upset because we hadn't had the conversation and she just started moving my stuff without my permission and in the dream I became so irate that I began to knock things over and I was so mad. I was really mad because I felt like how are you going to just insist on moving my stuff out of the way without even talking to me to make room for what you have going on? I was so mad I began to walk through the house and I was saying there are so many more rooms there's so much more here why would you take this space? So in the dream I began to go through the house. The funny thing is our house is only a three-bedroom one-bathroom house however in this dream there were other rooms that I was finding in the house. I've had this dream before where I've gone through the house but I'm finding other rooms that are in the house so as I was going through the house and I was going to these other rooms I kept saying like I've been here before I know that there are other rooms here and I've had this dream before. As I went through the different rooms in the house, there were like different people in there and different images were on the wall in these different rooms of the house and the different rooms of the house would take me to different places almost. My sister was arguing with me that the other rooms in the house were not prepared or ready. It needed so much work that she couldn't stay there and it wasn't healthy for the baby. Like they had mold and the ceiling was coming down and things like that. And I kept walking until I would find a room like this is presentable or that's presentable. But these rooms, there would always be people in them and or people from our past or just different things. And they almost were reflective of our life in different ways. Maybe different flashes of life. I'm not sure. One room I walked into literally led me to another state city place and it almost was like a barn and there were people in there and I was like oh what are you doing and I was trying to figure out what these people were doing and as I tried to talk to them things just kept changing. I can't remember the rest of the dream but I just know I've had this dream before where I'm going through the house that I live in and there are more rooms than that actually are there but there are more rooms I'm like I know there are more rooms here but these rooms are these just different eerie feelings to them I don't know if they were flashes of different life different spaces different times but I'm like we have more room here that's all I kept saying like we have more rooms in this house but then I can't be like no this house only has three rooms but I'm like walking through this house and it has all these rooms and I've done this before in other dreams It's just a really familiar dream in a new space with a new context, but the house with the many rooms, that almost feel like they're not visible until I'm going through this process of walking through the house, but yeah.

Spirit

Dream

I was a spirit and was told that I have to remove and replace my old, ancient, never used, dusty, China cabinet because it's taking up too much space. I was told this about many items, otherwise I would become a lost spirit. I was enraged and bawling the whole time. Even though those items didn't get a lot of attention, they still held meaning to me, and showed me how far I had come. To replace or remove them feels like removing my progress, but I did it anyway because I didn't want to become lost. Each item removed caused a great deal of emotional and mental stress. I would remember moments of my life that had that item in there, but then also when it was last used and left to dust. I would outcry and scream and bawl at the top of my lungs at each item, and wonder why I was subjected to this torture. I awoke in tears.

Dream

I am on top of this mountain that looks down on the hole of all the water city and the region surrounding it; basically the west Kanagawa region I am looking down at this magnificent scape with the river crossing in the middle of it from the ski jump stage/scaffold, the ski jump start-point arch, there’s an arch above my head Scene goes back to the time when I’m preparing for this thing(putting my gears on and such) with the help of my family(mother and younger brother) at the apartment room that we used to live in in Hakone There’s also Calcharo, the stoic, intimidating merc with flexible morality, the long straight white hair and the scars all over his hody from the game Wuthering Waves There’s also the girl that made me leave some of the past I had *to* her before I could move forward We have conversations while I get prepared, the environment is soemwhat cozy Scene changes, now I’m climbing up the slope of Shiroyama to my elementary school that I went to through 1-2nd grade before I went to Singapore Lush deep forest greens, rusted football ground frames, overall a bit ruin-ish but the kids are still around and the building itself very much indeed seem to have people in it What’s different about this version of Shiroyama Elementary School is that they have a parking lot, beneath he elevated first floor of the building I go in

Shadow
Past
Bed

Dream

It was a nightmare. I was stuck in my bed, watching shadows move all around. I couldn't move and they were torturing me with my past memories. I kept seeing distorted faces them staring at me. My past friends, family even, they were so distorted. I finally mustered somehow to move or appear next to my couch, where my mother was sleeping. I held her tight and I was telling her how scared I was. How I was sorry for everything and how this is really disappointing and stupid from me. I eventually saw the shadow person, she was, taking and breaking things around my house. but when I told my mother nothing was happening. She eventually took me to her bedroom where I proceeded to watch that shadow woman continue to do so. until my mother told me "maybe you should go to bed earlier, and you are overreacting" I screaming "go, go away" for what felt like forever until I finally woke up the same position I was in from my dream.

Dream

I was in a dream where futuristic military people were rushing all around me, and someone saw me and there was a person next to them that looked like me, and they were talking about how she wanted to switch lives with me, and after they were finished talking, the person that wasn’t me had a balloon in her hand, and start slowly approaching me, making eye contact the whole time and I got scared, and because I got scared she said, “then you know what I am!” And she started chasing after me and I had to run across water on steppingstones and jump over obstacles that weren’t visible, but I knew were there and jump over a hole in the ground that was pure fire and I tried to climb onto a building, and as I was reaching the top, the girl caught up to me and bit my hand, and I could kind of feel pain, but hardly and she said that because I couldn’t feel pain that I was from the future and the version of me she was talking to, before chasing me, was the past me, and that nothing can be changed, and that we wouldn’t switch lives. And then I woke up.
