Temple

Dream

Assassin's Creed-esque romantic dream. I was an Asian woman in the Southeast Asian area. During introduction of Caucasians and Anglo-Saxon religion. I was hiding out in a temple with a lover. There was the threat of a war looming. My lover was a revolutionary. He wanted me to leave with him and join his cause, but I politely refused. I used ash divination to divine the future. My lover questioned my using magic. My lover was religious. I woke up next day and he was gone. I could hear fighting in the distance, like a war or invasion was taking place. I had the sense that my lover was in danger. I rushed out to find him. Then I woke up.

Dream

I had a dream where my paternal cousin Arunothini whom I call her as "Aruni Akka", has given birth to two identical babies after suffering from a miscarriage a couple of years prior. One baby was a boy and the other baby was a girl. Me and my dad visit my cousin a year later to see her family and to celebrate the twins' 1st birthday. I saw the twin babies for the first time, the first thing that came to my mind was they both mostly looked just like their second older sister, Aishwarya, but also looked a bit like their oldest sister, Amritha. When I met them the boy instantly jumped to me for a hug which caught me off guard at first, but I gladly hugged back. My cousin Arunothini pointed out that she had spoke about me while he and his twin sister were in her womb during the pregnancy. That was why he really liked me. I loved carrying the baby boy as he clung to me. Before my cousin Arunothini's pregnancy with the twins, her daughter Aishwarya revealed that her mother was pregnant before and was expecting a boy but unfortunately lost the baby due to a miscarriage. I thought about why my cousin had twins because the boy was the baby could very likely be a reincarnation of the baby boy that died before and was the rainbow baby born after the miscarriage. I smile at the baby boy and hug him in which he giggles. Then we all get into the cars to drive to a nearby temple to do some praying before we have the birthday party. I carry the baby boy in my arms while Aishawarya carries her baby sister we and our families enter the temple. I look around the temple to see how big it was and everytuing was so serene, well-crafted, vibrant, and colourful. The temple is fairly new and was recently opened right after the construction was completed months prior. We all walk around the temple and do some praying. Once we were done we return back to my cousin's house to celebrate the twins' first birthday. We all enjoyed the party, gave the twin babies some cake to eat when we help them cut the cake after they blew their candles. We all ate delicious food and played some games. The twin babies had so much fun. They both were giggling and squealing nonstop and they were very happy.

Hey, it was dawn and I saw this dream. I am a Sri Lankan and currently living in China away from my home. I saw my mom has prepared some porridge and ask me to distribute them among us. I offered the first offering to Lord Buddha's offering tray and when I looked into pot with our cups I saw no porridge left there. And we understood that a spirit is living in our home. My father went and bought a fregrance from shop and we put it into the burnt coconuts shell and make the smoke spread everywhere in our home. (This is a traditional way we use in our country to fill houses with a pleasant smell, with prosperity). We took a pic before and after doing this. Saw our home was cleared with out the mist and saw the mist had shifted somewhere. It meant to shift it to the next place. We have a cemetery next to our home. But then the dream shifted and I saw my sister with me who is currently living in Australia. We were pasting the same fragrance dust there instead it throwing it to the coconut shells. When I asked why it was meant to destroy spirits than shifting them somewhere. It was somewhere like a temple that I've never visited. We were aiming fox symbols there, saying spirits go and stuck there. Saw blood came from some symbols when we paste the dust. Suddenly a spirit came out and my sister was fast enough to paste the dust on a symbol and it was destroyed. Then another spirit approached her she clearly screamed to paste the dust. I did that but the environment went black and white. I clearly saw a female spirit with a saree was looking at me and it went inside me. I tried to talk to my sis to inform her like she did but I couldn't speak. Before I take another glimpse of the dream suddenly I woke up at 5:58, two minutes before to my 6am alarm.

Dream

I was parking in a parking garage with a friend and two men came up to us to rob us with stun guns. It was a groundhog day situation where ut kept happening and I had to figure out ways to defeat them. I lost everytimw until we finally grabbed their weapon and fought them. The next level of my dream was like a video game. A different friend was now in a wheel chair and I wheeled her out of the garage into an elevator. We end up in some temple run style obstacle course where we had to jump the wheelchair over a gap in a bridge.

Dream

January 26-27th ⁃ Train I bonded with? ⁃ Was happy to help celebrate my birthday ⁃ This train took me magically to this temple. To deliver a gift box. It was labeled with “Chicago” on the letter/gift box. ⁃ Was claimed to be lost and found to be delivered to clothe someone. ⁃ Arrived safely. This train spirit seemed to receive trouble and was arrested (?). ⁃ There was a tiny house I arrived in, inside was bookshelves with dolls. Possessed dolls but had no interest in harming me. I went to grab them to set them free. As they seemed to be sitting abandoned for years. ⁃ Upon going outside I encountered overgrowth of the temple and came upon cat food and then Cats in a cage/coop In a temple-like setting. ⁃ I was trying to feed the cats as they seemed very hungry ⁃ One of them managed to break free. A cream colored cat with orange tabby stripes ⁃ This cat was so eager and happy to see me ⁃ I picked this poor baby (cat) up and she clung to me. She was in rough shape. But I protected and held her and gave her love. ⁃ Was about to release the other cats to bring them with me ⁃ But an elderly man yelled at me to stop me which scared me ⁃ I knew then I had to , so I rushed down the stairs of this temple. Trees were growing and flourishing more…had I passed a test of sorts? ⁃ Made it to an airport or court like setting. ⁃ Two blue haired twins that matched 2 of the possessed dolls I was carrying. I knew the twins were malevolent when they grinned evilly at me. “Prove it. You won’t.” ⁃ I ensured they knew I knew. ⁃ Right after that I encountered a woman at the check out that matched another of the dolls. Even down to the ghostly purple will-o-wisp dancing in her head but also was seen through it. ⁃ I had to find a way to restore them. ⁃ By this time the cat that was clinging to me must’ve died or disappeared. As I looked to my cradled arm and noticed she was missing. ⁃ I grieved for her but no ill will came. In fact only love and care blessed me. A boon of sorts? ⁃ Looked over, hadn’t realized I was hungry, seeing a buffet of food. ⁃ Urged to go over and nourish myself. I did so, encountering my tall as fuck older brother, Shariff, and soon after my dad. ⁃ My hair was very well done curly free. From me doing it earlier. It was dark brown and not dyed red irl. ⁃ Was called over by my dad and as if I was a child again sat me down. ⁃ I was vibing as he did my hair. Braids…twist at the end…form afro puffs at the end of these….then tied it into a high ponytail position. ⁃ He let me go. ⁃ By the time I did, the food I was going to grab was gone. ⁃ I expressed my sadness but someone noticed me. Adult man, black hair and beard and mustache. White. He had 3 of the brownies. He offered to give me one once he was finished and told me to grab a tray. ⁃ I did and waited. He gave me his phone and all I saw was him and his girlfriend naked in erotic positions? Cool tattoo jobs tho. ⁃ He gently took the phone back and gave me a brownie in thanks ⁃ This brownie was a vanilla cookie and chocolate brownie combo. A Brookie! It was absolutely delicious. And I thanked him. ⁃ Full, I went back on my self-imposed mission. Saw a vision of the old man, the woman and the twin talking at the temple stairs. The woman was crying like “What happened to the stairs?!” ⁃ At some point I remember telling my youngest sister to grab the dolls from the temple. She did and bright them to me. ⁃ Snapped out the vision, Heard the ghostly woman and one of the dark blue haired twins arguing. Screaming match. ⁃ Fed up, I marched over and barked “OI!” Which got them both to shut up and look at me. ⁃ “You’re both screaming and not getting anywhere. You’re grown adults and not children. Communicate like it or I’m pinching nipples. God.” (Paraphrased) ⁃ The woman noticed and listened. The twin would try to elevate his voice and only pipe down when I followed through and pinched his nipple (even with his shirt on) ⁃ This would happen a few times before I realized the possessed dolls I was carrying were missing again even after retrieval. ⁃ I sought out the stairs. Found them. Covered in pink petals and prospering trees. Even the cats from before were doing better and free. Loved. ⁃ I went up those temple stairs. No sign of the coops the cats were locked in. ⁃ I found one of the people I sought out to save. The purple haired ghostly woman who was in the doll. She was free. As the Will-o-wisp was no longer there. The dark blue twins were gone. ⁃ I found myself tearful and crying joyfully from the relief. “You were a doll…I’m so happy you’re okay!” (Paraphrased) ⁃ She smiled and sat me down next to my old friend. Erica from high school. We hugged sitting together gazing at the view. I woke up after that.

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

Time travel/loop story basically Naruto and Sasuke Basically it’s the big battle part but make it merge with some modern melodrama I also get fucked i think Idk It was all abt preventing this one massacre that might’ve led up to the occurrence of the event We all go around Japan sleeping in hotel rooms and such i think Cut scene to…. Similar thing but this time it’s That one kid, me and one another adult(Japanese, a bit cowardly but composed; think Satsuki and May’s dad) There’s this scroll of 鬼神 that’s basically like an invocation talisman of said entity that the kid has to return to a certain modern-looking small temple in Tokyo or do smth abt We do the attempts like three times with only the first one(that we remember of; apparently there has been many more attempts before but it wasn’t noteworthy enough/we didn’t get to the important parts before we messed) being successful by the nick of time and spark of luck(small factors adding up) Other two we either rushed(i did) and lacked a material that needed to be there(some golden resin of sorts; frankincense but make it magical? Or were they just gold pellets) or we just straight up got locked out and reality became blurry and a mush before we could do anything abt it

I was in a temple and I had just been initiated as an Egyptian goddess by the goddess Isis and Bastet themselves. There was Egyptian ceremonial music playing in the background, smells of different oils and herbs. Dimly lit with Torches along the wall. The men served us and worshipped us. Day and night they stood guard with those torches. We never slept and neither did they. There was magical auras and energies floating everywhere. It was beautiful. I was there to learn but no words were spoken , I looked deeply into Bastets Green eyes and began energetically absorbing the knowledge. I can’t wait to dream again. It feels like just the beginning

Dream

Around mid December 2023, I had a dream where me and my father went to my cousin Arunothini’s house to do a ceremony to celebrate the one year death anniversary of my aunt Thayanithi. In my waking life, my uncle Sriram didn’t come to attend it. However in my dream life he did. In the dream, Me, my father, my uncle Sriram, my other cousin Aruljothy (Arunothini’s brother), his wife Vathini, his three sons, Arunothini, her two daughters, her husband Rameshkanna, Aruljothy and Arunothini’s father Arulsubramaniam were all at the house together. Arunothini hired a priest whom she knows to perform the ceremony. As the the priest conducts the ceremony, he asks us to sing any thevarams we know. Most of us have sung a few that we know. However for me, I didn’t want to sing due to the humiliation I went through at a temple by another priest a few years back that has left me regretful and ashamed of ever wanting singing any songs associated with the Hindu deities and for any auspicious Hindu holidays my family and I would celebrate every year. When the priest asked me to sing along with the rest of my family members, I told him I didn’t want to. Arunothini then tells the priest what happened and why I am reluctant to sing. Prior to this in my waking life, Arunothini already knows about that incident since I opened up to her and everyone else about it through a story I had written for a story writing class her father Arulsubramaniam is teaching. In my dream life after Arunothini told that incident to the priest, he became very understanding about it and tried to encourage me to sing as he wanted me to sing for my aunt Thayanithi’s sake to make her happy. I still was reluctant and didn’t want to sing still. This made my uncle Sriram get mad and impatient and demands me to sing and not keep everyone waiting. I told my uncle that I didn’t want to sing which the escalated to the both of us having a heated argument. At the heat of the argument, I call my uncle Sriram “Chithappa” (The term to call your mom or dad’s younger brother in Tamil.) for the first time as I wasn’t that close with him before to call him that. Overall, the heated argument between me and my uncle Sriram left us angry and frustrated. It made me crying a little bit, but Arunothini and the priest were able to calm me down and comfort me. They still tried to encourage me to sing a Puranam to which I reluctantly gave in. They were glad that I was able to sing and the ceremony continued until it was over. Then everyone eat the food we have cooked. Eventhough, I begin to feel a little better, I still couldn’t get over with the argument I had with my uncle Sriram a moment ago and was still shaken about it. In my dream life, I feel like our relationship as uncle and niece will be strained and I doubt that it will not get any better. However, in my waking life, I am glad that the argument between us never happened. Despite me not being that close with my uncle Sriram, I still think he is a good person from the many times he has helped my parents before when they were getting ready to settle in to have me and my siblings.
