Reading

Dream

I had a dream that I was working at a daycare and the power went out. Because the power went out I had to take my class ( some 1 to 2 year olds) to the reading room until someone came to get us or the power came back on. On the way to the reading room I noticed there were no other people in the classrooms. We had to cut through some classes to get to the reading room. The chrome got distracted in one of the classrooms and started playing with everything. This was frustrating because I didn't want to get in trouble when the teacher of the classroom we were in came back to a messy classroom. I started trying to gather the children and the other teacher with me told me not to worry anf it wasn't a big deal but I knew better because we weren't following safety protocols properly

Dream

I had a dream I was traveling the world, and for this trip Haley her kids, Matthew and Alayna joined me. And in this dream I was single. So we went to some really old place in Europe, turns out Zacc is there? And invites us to stay in his family home over there, it's huge, a huge mansion with fountains and pools and that kinda stuff, and we all decide to make a bet of who can go the longest not touching the floor (you can step on a blanket on the floor to walk around or hop from couch to chair) so we are all in on it including Zacc. The first day Haley is out cause she has to take care of her kids, the second day s friend of Zaccs comes over and is very amused by all of us playing this weird game being competitive over it. Alayna gets out that day and the friend decides to stay and hang out with us cause we seem like fun. That might we are playing board games and all just chatting. The next day I'm reading in this really pretty room that had a wall of plants and a fountain. I think it was like part greenhouse but the new guy comes in and sat kinda near me? Like not beside me but not super far either and started to draw, so after a while I asked to see it. The dude drew me perfectly reading a book I was very surprised, I asked if he could draw this room because I think it's beautiful and would love to have a drawing of his. He said she sure not he wants it to be from outside, so I grab the blanket that I've been using to not touch the ground with but the guy is like that's so slow and picked me up carried me outside. While we were walking to the spot he wanted to draw from we saw a boa constrictor and then a two headed boa constrictor? and then let me put down the blanket before putting me down on the blanket. I see since I'm outside, Matthew and Alayna hanging out it looks like Matthew got out sometime without me noticing, so it's just Zacc and I left in the game and he's up on the roof? We waved to each other and the guy started to draw the screen while I laid on the blanket and watched everyone doing their own thing. I was them surprised when the friend sat down behind me he asked if Zacc and I were together and I said no. He seemed surprised saying you know though right? And I looked up at Zacc who was watching us as well and said, I know he loves me. Then the dude laid behind me and held me then I woke up

I had the stuff that i ordered for my spirit Guide Ezili Freda delivered to the place we were. chris asked me what i got. And i explained that i just added my stuff to cristens cart and checked out so it can arrive. The main thing i saw in my delivery was the comb i bought for my alter for Ezili Freda. I tell chris i have been wanting to share with him snd cristen that i went to a voodoo priestest and discovered who is walking with me. My spirit is Ezili Freda. As soon as i said that 3 people tried to say say they were also voodoo priest and wanted to talk to me me about the work they do. One woman began soeaking in creole. I went to the back and avoided all those people and just sat alone with cristen and chris. I explained to them my experience getting a reading and how my spirit is now Ezili Freda. we leave the event and i ask Cristen her zodiac sign. She reply that she is a november virgo. I told her i can see it but not 100%. Her attention to detail and her enjoyment of order screamed order. However the soft temperament didnt scream virgo to me. I remeber thinking her birthday and thr holidays were nicely spread out. We leave and drop cristen off. I keep telling chris about my experience but he is less interested. He is looking for a parking space. We are in my old Bushwick/ridgewood neigborhood. He spots a spot behind him, and realizes he had reverse down a 2 way street.

Dream

i dreamt about being home sitting on the couch in my room beside my bookshelf. i remember looking at the time, and i think it was around 8 pm? i wanted to read a manga but i somehow couldn't. i was able to read in that dream, but all the words didn't make sense. every time i put the book back and took it again, the words were different. it creeped me out really badly, because i remember that i also was thinking about someone watching me and knowing of every single step i took. i also kind of remember that something happened which made me realize i was being watched. i wanted to tell my dad that i couldn't really read and that some words disappeared and some sentences didn't make sense. i was worried about my health, because everything was so blurry when i tried to read something. the dream itself was really creepy because i remember something happened, but i sadly don't know anymore.

Dream

I can’t remember how my dream started, but I know it had something to do with my grandparents house, the scientist guy from “The Simpsons,” and a black hole. I think the scientist was talking about black holes in my grandparents house. Anyway, in my dream, my mom, dad, sister, and I were all at this buffet mixed with a sit-down restaurant. We were talking and having a great time, when one of my friends came out of nowhere and started talking to us. She convinced my sister and I to go to a nearby store, and my dad went with us to make sure that we were safe. Once we got to the store, I noticed an invisible barrier around it and started freaking out. As it turns out, it wasn’t invisible barrier, it was just glass. Glass so clear and clean that I couldn’t see it. Once I got into the store, my dad disappeared and was replaced by another male shopper. Dream me failed to notice that though, she was too busy looking at what the store had. Meanwhile, my friend and the random shopper tried on some animal masks. As I was walking around, I found the ‘Anime’ section of the store. (Anime is another word for Japanese cartoons.) I saw that this section of the store had a membership option. I looked at the membership rules and saw how strict they were. The rules said that I could only watch certain animes and then listed the ones that I got to choose from. I decided to leave after reading the rules and went looking for my friend, but I couldn’t find her. That’s when I noticed two dolls in plastic wrap by the front register. They looked eerily similar to my friend and that random male shopper. They even had the masks that the two of them were wearing. Then, I heard a baby cry in the employee lounge of the store. It caught my sister’s attention too. Before anything else happened, my dream cut back to my mom, who was still at the restaurant. Everyone’s orders had arrived at this point, and she was playing with her food. Somehow, she created a black hole while playing with her food, and the scientist guy from The Simpsons started talking to her. He was like: “Don’t worry, this isn’t a real black hole. It may look like one, but it’s actually a worm hole. So, if it reaches critical mass and pulls us in, none of us would die.” Then, the black wormhole starts engulfing the Earth. It transports Earth to an alternate universe, which changes our reality. The biggest and most common change were people turning into animal hybrids. There was this surfer guy who turned part octopus. There was this young farm boy who turned into a goat person. It was weird. Anyway, dream me failed to notice what happened, and instead went into the employee’s lounge to see what was going on. Before I could get inside the room though, the cashier yelled at me, and I ran out of the store in fright. I ran into a random neighborhood and finally realized that my reality had been altered. I find the scientist guy from The Simpsons and run up to him. I tell him how I think the store I was at was turning customers into products and selling them to other customers. He told me that he couldn’t focus on that right now because he needed to find a way to fix everything. Shortly after saying that, he fixes everything and makes a documentary about the incident. It showed what the experience was like for both universes. While I watch the documentary, everything slowly goes back to normal. I teleport to my house, my family fades into existence, and we all sit down on the couch. Now that everything is back to normal, dream me feels safe and happy. (And then, my dream ended and I woke up.)

Dream

I had a really jumbled up dream. I'm not sure if it was actually one dream or more that I'm just all remembering together. So in one part I was at the airport waiting for a flight and I was with my friend Katie and I can't really remember the details but it was like I was in the airport waiting for a flight but I didn't actually have one booked and then I wasn't sure how I was going to get it booked and then I tried to ask a lady where I go to book a flight but she didn't want to talk to me and now I'm remembering that at one point I wanted to go to Chicago but at another point I was supposed to go to New York to see my friend Brian but then I realized I had wasted too much time and I really couldn't go to New York and get back in time. And then the dream morphed, or maybe it's a different dream, but I was in a new place. I think it was in Spain because a lot of people were speaking Spanish and it looked European. I was my younger self like in my 20s and going around the city and going to different little coffee shops and restaurants and cafes and different places like that. And at some point I met a young man. He was really skinny and had long hair and was super kind of crazy and danced a lot and I was really really attracted to him. and we were going around the city just having fun and enjoying each other's company and then somehow we ended up at someone's house and we slept on the floor and we made love and it was really fun and in the morning he had to go and I was hoping he would call me but then I went with the girl and for some reason my son at his current age 17 was with us and again we were exploring the city and looking at bookshops and riding these weird buses and just doing all kinds of tourist things and we were having fun for a whole day but I was disappointed the man didn't call me. But on the next day he did call me and so he joined in our adventures around the city and there were all kinds of things happening. We went on some strange bus where we were on the upper deck but we were driving through an area that looked like a Chinatown and just dropping into weird little bars and nooks and crannies in different places. There was one place where people were sitting on these cushy chairs and like one woman was reading and a couple people were talking but there was like a monitor for the room who said yeah you can come in here and hang out but you have to keep moving at all times and I noticed the woman reading the book was just doing some interesting hand movements the whole time she was reading. There was also a part where we were hanging out in a bar but we were in some kind of uncomfortable chairs and just having drinks and having a good time but then these people who were in a back section that had these are really really plump comfy chairs and couches left so we moved back to that section and it was like really comfortable and homey and again we were just having a really good time. There was one part where the young man I was attracted to was hanging out with us and there was another guy there and they seemed really really close and I figured out that he must be gay or bisexual and I was really fine with that I just was a little jealous because I really wanted him to be with me. It was a very expansive, complicated, and realistic dream. but overall super super fun and reminded me of something I'd like to do like travel and hang out with people and just be kind of crazy and have a good time It was one of those dreams that was so fun that when my phone started beeping at me I really really did not want to be disturbed and leave the dream and I even turned off the phone and tried to go back but it didn't work.
