Shadows

Dream

This was a mashup of quite a few dreams with a nightmare. In the nightmare, is that I was in a homeless shelter setting, similar to my current situation in Derwood. There was…fire and shadows lurking in every corner. But I was facing them fine, I just needed to lie down to put my bags down…there was a kitchen and a bathroom rendered similarly to the ones in the childhood tv show, Courage the Cowardly Dog. The wallpaper was falling at the seams, and it seemed that there were sexual predators in many corners. I was burned into unconsciousness, and found myself with no face…a faceless figure was taunting and playing with me, like I was his food. He seemed no more than a child without supervision and too much internet. I ran and navigated so many times to no avail. He sent me into several different places with telekinetic almost superhuman strength. I was sent into the kitchen stove and cabinet with fish falling out….i landed with considerable impact, but was unharmed mostly. It did hurt, and the boy had remorse for a moment before I fell forward into a set of wooden cabinets. Then I was awake and on a trailer, looking out at the horizon…still at the shelter again. There was a symbol that recognized I was from independence now. One of their clients. They were buying me things and seemingly working with me until things turned south. The child from before ran up to me, grabbed me by the arm, using a lighter lit my entire head on fire. I screamed before I physically felt my neck break in dream and I awoke with my head in the same position. Unbroken. Shaken up, understandably, I rolled over to avoid sleeping on my back. Therefore was hit with another dream. This time of magical and metaphysical proportions. I was in a shopping mall…one of the big stores in the mall, with towering walls, merchandise, and many cataloguing or window shopping. I was exploring myself when I burst into casual song…a song I knew fluently…Havana? But when I started singing it, eyes were turned towards me by my beautiful song. I can’t recall why…but I was sliding around and dancing through isles like a musical. Eventually stumbling upon a child, and with a flick of my wrist, I transformed her into her fairy self, she was overjoyed and ran to get her mother. Her mother then came to request my prettiest sunrise, and I waved my hand across the sky and reflected a pink sky with a waking sun. She gasped at its beauty before I waved and a purple glittering veil appeared on her face, accompanied by silver steel armor. She felt empowered and emboldened. She sought her daughter and I gave her a signal to shoot if she needed anything. This would soon go haywire though as I heard screams in the distance, running toward them, I saw the physical embodiment of our entire solar system rotating around the sun in the sky, moving on its own like a shooting star. Seemingly to target me, the roof was ripped off and I started sprinting despite my health and limits. I found myself on the balcony first, reuniting the mother and daughter, then hopping down the layers of the building into a bedroom. Found my toxic sister but didn’t pay her any mind. I kept running out to the second balcony and down the stairs to a courtyard of children. But they weren’t there…to which I realized they were all ghostly children playing around in the green grass to revitalize themselves. Which I smiled and went into the building to find a surprise and… I don’t think I could ever see what it was…I woke up….and fell asleep to find myself running….only to awake again and find myself talking to my mother in my sleep…and heard my Case Worker talking to someone next to me upon waking. To which I bade her, “Hi.”

Dream

I was in the town I grew up in, Walnut. I don't remember what I was doing, but I remember walking toward a house a few houses down from my childhood home, then I decided (knowing that I was dreaming) that i wanted to go take a look at my house instead. When I got there, my father was there. I wanted to give him a hug but he walled away and got in his truck. This didn't make me upset, instead I was curious about it and told myself to remember to record it in my dream app. I then walked inside, it was night time, I was afraid of something coming out of the shadows, or the eerie feeling that I normally get when I dream of this house in the darkness. But there was nothing. I looked into the living room and saw the outline of furniture, looked ahead into the kitchen and simply saw the glow of the moon over the appliances. I went upstairs, it was still dark, and nothing seemed creepy at all. I went into my bedroom, everything was how I remember it with my posters on the walls and my clothes on the floor. I took in the smell and laid down on my bed. I smiled and relished the nostalgia. It was a very pleasant and enjoyable moment. I drank in the memories, fully aware that I was dreaming. That's all I remember

Dream

I was exploring a mountain when I came across a village tucked away at the top. There was a beautiful wooden temple with orange white woodworking on the roof designed like lace and it moved with the breeze. An older woman in white was there and greeted me warmly. I then found an elevator that took me down to a meadow that was in a crevice at the base of the mountain. There was a sea of tall grass encircling a pretty stone fountain that was wrapped in vines with white flowers. I felt I needed to get the water flowing again but I wasn't sure how. The concept of "as above so below" crossed my mind. I was then inside the mountain where there was a large royal chamber, a giant stone throne shaped like an open book with an androgynous ruler carved from bronze seemingly sleeping upon the throne. A congregation of shadows loomed behind me, watching, waiting, but then a companion randomly appeared and said we had to run, the person chasing us was close and we had to keep moving. We went down a path that led to a secret airplane hanger with large airship. Then I woke up

Dream

I had a dream it was me and a older man bundled up in a locked up cabin w boards on the windows and the snowy wind howling out side we were cooking something on a ember fire so low but hot enough to cook and we weren’t even speaking only through sign language did we communicate. The old man warned that even w the storm we needed to move tmmrw in the daylight because even if they were vampires they were tryna escape the storm too. We were humans in an apotolyptic world of vampires hunting down humans. A little later the dream shows the old man putting the fire out and signing fearfully that something was tryna get into the cabin shadows whisked back and forth on the windows eventually we begin running out the back into the winter storm something chasing us eventually i’m caught and dragged to a group of people they look normal except for the fact they wore normal clothes in this frigid weather and had a tint of red in their eyes they don’t bite me but tell me i’m coming w them same w the old man and poke me w a iv and siphoned blood out storing the package for later. Through this time of us traveling together me and the vampires become close as they were once humans all w their own lives. However the old man i was with is getting sicker and sicker and the vamps have toooed siphoning his blood which they had done w us everyday since grabbing us. I was also slowing following for one of the guy vamps and when the group made it to shelter at a abanadoned barn there me and the vamp have sex where he bites and sucks my blood and discovered how special and tasty my blood is. He tells the other and they begin drinking the bags of my blood they had collected getting sort of drunk in it. Because they are drunk they don’t realize the big group sneaking up on them a huge party of humans attacks the barn killing 4-5 of vamps while the rest begin running. The vamp i had feelings for picks me up cause he drank to much and i couldn’t move and behinds running he doesn’t make it far before a person kills him. The humans ask if i’m okay giving me medical attention and making sure i don’t turn The old man sadly died during the exchange from his sick use . a the group of humans takes me to their main layer which was a little past the cabin in the beginning i comment on the irony of how close me and the old man were to safety, The end of the dream shows me talking to them as my mind wanders back to why the vamps loved my blood in owrticuwkr so much

Dream

I experienced a sudden feeling of foreboding, so I decided to go and hide. But then I got irritated and bravely decided to go hunt down whatever was lurking behind me in the shadows and confront it. I woke up before I got to the source of my fear, not knowing quite what it was, only sensing a dark entity wearing a tan hooded cloak.

Dream

the entire beginning of the dream is lost now. i was walking.. or going somewhere.. i just remember not really being able to see. like my view was obstructed by something very dark and it was night time. one of my subordinates on my team was with me. we were about to cross the street but the traffic light was down (like it is in the real world where we work) but my team mate was like "anna, come on. the bus." and there was a bus pulling up to the bus stop on the corner up ahead. we start running across the crosswalk and i start saying "but my key, my key" and my team mate was like "it doesnt work" and i was really confusee by this and because of the running my heart rate was elevated so i started to come out of it because i heard my music playing before exiting the dream and it started to wake me up. before i actually woke up, i "woke up" in my dream. as in i was in the same place im currently sleeping, i was just dreaming that i was awake. my eyes play tricks on me in the dark and they were doing so and starting to make figures out of the shadows and scare me. im screaming in my bed to wake myself up.

Dream

I was in water like a river, swam to the end to see my former basketball coach and coworker in this open face boat and she had on a captains hat. I swam back and saw shadows large sting rays at the bottom and was like wow that amazing. I had a cup in my hand as I swam and was looking in the water. I saw the shadow of a Killer Whale as I was making it to shore. I felt like I was getting scared so I spilled the drink on my way to the shore. I made it. I woke up.

Dream

First dream I was getting my blood drawn or something and just remember it was taking forever and mentioned some about how I just like cheese curds. Then I jumped to the second one where me and a big group of people all hit our dab pens at the same time and ripped them into a giant cloud. After that we went to an abandoned mall to look around the foundation because we thought it’d be cool. We were wandering around and I noticed it felt like the backrooms. Well after running around i decided to go off on my own and I found this area that was pitch black and thought that was perfect. As I’m running towards this area, 2 shadows are walking and approaching. I instantly get a bad gut feeling and run back

Dream

I just dreamed that my boyfriend was here and we were about to go to bed. Then suddenly I saw very brightly and clearly 2 different moons through the window blinds. My boyfriend saw it too. Confused, I opened the blinds, but there was no moon there. I was totally confused and briefly talked to my boyfriend about how weird this was. Then suddenly a shadow touched the window. At first, I joked that the shadow looked like a Dementor from Harry Potter. But this time my boyfriend didn't see it. Suddenly I screamed because this figure seemed to want to attack me. I hid and screamed very scared. My boyfriend tried to help me, but he didn't know how. The shadows said that I possessed something they urgently wanted. Then suddenly the shadows were gone again. I found myself in a kind of boarding school, and I had to figure out how to learn to use my powers and find this important item that the shadows wanted. Gradually, I got to know the people at this boarding school, and I knew that every decision I made was very important. While the beginning with the moons, the shadows, and my fear was very realistic, the dream felt more like playing a video game from the moment I suddenly found myself in this boarding school... Then I woke up.

Dream

When I dream I don’t dream about myself, I dream like I’m someone else. I’m at this mystical place where I get surrounded by samurai’s made by shadows. There was this man in the sky that was evil and needed some stones. And we had a map that showed us where the stones were and which ones are stones and which ones are olives. We gave the man the olives and he didn’t notice that it wasn’t the stones he was looking for. Then we went down the beach to get animals tattooed on us. But since I had a snake tattoo I didn’t have to fight for my life but the other person had to.

Dream

I had a dream that I was in my boyfriend’s kitchen cooking and cleaning and that I saw a white cat laying on a sofa bed in the living room in front of the living room window . This white cat looked comfortable and big and fluffy and white and was wagging her tail and she had a very big belly! But what was even more interesting was how content this white cat appeared to be. I was naked in the kitchen cleaning and I saw myself naked and poised in the kitchen as if I was happy to see someone or myself coming through the kitchen door. It was early morning and the the sun was pearing through the kitchen window with elements of shadow but not thick enough where the shadows overwhelmed the light.
