    odd maybe there was something sinister about the history of the place which you were driving around.. if it was a real place.

    i occasionally come across a place i have never been and i swear i have been there in a dream before

    very strange

    my partner has spider dreams too, often wakes up and rips back all the covers frantically looking for them.

    slightly off topic, but i heard recently a theory that an insect that lives on a certain plant and is always there could be the spirit of the plant in question.

    there is a massive spider who is always in the same spot at the top on one of my partners cacti, happens to be the only variety i have ever tried.

    i also remember reading about Arachne a spider goddess who weaves the web of life and also decides when your life thread is cut off, tried to find more about it on the net but couldnt find much sense through the rubbish

    The change to a delivery truck may be an additional representation of the arrival of new things - after all, delivery trucks generally deliver things, right? All of this may indicate that there is some unmet need to grow and change in your subconscious - perhaps something repressed, or perhaps your life has just become a bit too routine, or perhaps there is something that you need to face up to within yourself (or someone else?)

    i think you are spot on with this one, thanks very much for stating the previously unnoticed obvious. i have a serious lack of things to do with my time and am currently applying for teachers college, although i had been putting off writing my application - which i just did today!

    If any elements of your dreams are recurring, I'd pay coser attention to them. And what you really need to ask yourself, is what do your dreams and dream elements mean to YOU? Do you fear aliens? Or do you secretely wish that one would take you away to a more advanced civilization away form all the hairless apes on earth? An interpretation of your dream must take the answers to these questions into account, I believe.

     

    my attitude towards aliens is a mixture of fear and admiration depending on the one in question but yes they are a reacurring element, usually infinitely more powerful and intelligent than me, yet they want to kill me for some reason. they never suceed though.

    lol maybe its something to do with the anagram my parents called me. I am Kea, which they also decided means Keep Earth Alive.

    Interesting dreams bogfrog, seems like I've finally met someone who is par with my vivid dreams. Also! Do you dream in colour or black and white?

    I'll tell you about the latest vivid dream I had.

    I'm on my way back to my apartment but on the way back I meet up with some stranger and buy some acid and pot. I get back to my apartment and starting chewing on the acid(I was dreaming.. :rolleyes: ) The weirdest part then started. In my dream I was on an acid trip it was... :blink:

     

    i dream in colour.

    i have had dreams in which i take trips too, very interesting when you consider all the visual elements and sensations are just as real as if you had actually taken something while awake.

    could it be these altered states of conciousness are much more accessable for you to slip into while in a dream state?

    when i was a boozer i would always drag myself home wasted as, go to sleep and then continue partying in my dreams - often getting up to really ridiculous stuff, which left me very confused in the morning as to what i really did and what i just dreamed i did!

    dreams are just infinitely fascinating, would love a job studying them - now that would be a very happy and interesting lifestyle!!

    i have only once achieved full lucidity for a very short time, it was after a very confusing dream a few years ago about being in my aunti and uncles big mansion and the staircases and walls kept changing and morphing like in harry potter, then i squeezed through this gap inbetween two walls into this weird room and i was looking around and there were all these big logs hanging from chains on the roof with pieces of my friends multi-coloured hair draped over them and big brown sheets hanging between each two logs with some silhouettes of various monsters on them and i was scared so tried to turn on a light switch then because i had seen in a movie that you apparently cant turn on or off lights in a dream BAM i realised i was dreaming, but i was still afraid so i jumped out of a window and woke up after about 5 seconds of lucidity.

    would love to work out how to do it again, have never seemed to notice light switches in dreams since.

    dont mind tool, saw them live when i was 15 and didnt know who they were, some of my old friends hated me for that lol.

    i have a freakishly talented musical family but somehow my parents and i missed out :(

    all of my cousins play atleast 3 instruments each varying from piano, violin, organ, cello and double bass, along with being soprano singers, and my aunti is a musical genius, composes all her own stuff for the church they go to and sings like and angel, while my uncle conducts the symphony orchestra and teaches shit loads of instruments.

    i'm a wee bit jealous ae. it seems like learning a new language, as soon as you know one instrument it makes it easier to learn others, sadly i never got that first one going!

    hey san p, does this mean that it was you who made those chillums you had a while back?

    awesome stuff, if you could do a glassblowing apprenticeship i'm pretty sure that there is guaranteed nonstop work here in nz as soon as you know how to do it.

    there's a pretty high demand for beautiful smoking utensils!

    good thinking mr opportunist with the tvs, i'm sure you will have them coming out your ears in no time :)

    i dont know, maybe it is more concern about the genereal unrest coming up to 2012, i dont believe that the world is going to end but i think alot of idiots will think the world is going to end so they will do whatever the fuck the want becuase they think it wont matter anyway if we are all going to die.

    and i dont smoke ciggies, i quit on my first day of working in a cafe, knowing if i didnt stop them i never would! been almost 2 years now thank goodness.

    i dont know what the aliens thing is but they feature in my dreams about once a week. sometimes they are evil ones that spit acid, sometimes just fuckin creepy ones that stare blankly at me

    i have been wondering lately about finding some decent classical music as i occasionally hear the most mind blowingly intricate stuff on the radio, but they quite often wont tell you whats what.

    some stuff really reminds me of trance and decent electronic but i dont really know where to start when it comes to classical.

    have kinda gotten over electronic music at the mo, after listening to it for so long i find i am craving REAL music with REAL instruments, there is something magical and elegant about classical.

    would love to hear any suggestions or even anything out of the classical genre

    i have alwasy had very vivd and often very hard to understand dreams, but after cutting MJ out of my diet they have taken on a new ferocity.

    the one i had had this morning went like this:

    i was sitting on the steps outside my boyfriends house with my friend while she was having a cigarette, then all of a sudden the sky started to light up with multiple explosions and comets flying everywhere, then the sky literally caught fire.

    we ran inside to tell our boyfriends and they didnt believe us, said we were just trippin out.

    then i was instantly at my house and i knew something bad was about to happen. then a giant spaceship covered in weird sybols landed in my driveway and i knew they were coming for me.

    i didnt want to go with them and ran inside and locked the doors, then knowing my efforts at hiding were going to be useless i began saying my goodbyes to my boyfriend and my mum.

    then i went and locked myself in the bathroom. the alien had come inside, it was creeping along the hallway on all fours and then it was meowing at the door like my cat does when i go to the bathroom.

    i asked "is that you bog?" and it replied "i'm not tea bog" in a very cat like voice.

    i gave up and decided to go with the alien back to its ship.

    then as soon as i was in the ship it changed into a delivery truck and the alien changed into a gangly delivery boy, i was shocked and confused and asked him what was going on and he said that i had to come with him to the depo to collect a chord for the new laptop my dad had sent me.

    i would love to hear about anyone else's wacky dreams, and they are an endless source of wonder and confusion for me, i feel that they must mean something, otherwise my subconscious wouldn't have gone to the effort of creating such a scene for me.

    alot of my dreams involve aliens, often they are trying to kill me and they hunt me down, maybe i am just paranoid, but alot of the time things are just so irrational yet so significant that i just cannot dismiss them as mere mind gibberish.

    Woah whats that weird monstrose looking thing in the white pot in the 'family' shot?

    I would leave the bridgesii pup where he is, as it will look really cool with a big arm growing out the side,.

    As for your possible grafting stock, remember that the fresher the growth is that you grafting on, the more likely it is to take, older woody cores are much more likely to dry and push your graftee up and off.

    I would suggest buying some small cacti from a shop and trying a couple of grafts before splashing out on an aztekium!

    I have never tried horizontal grafting - its seems tricky! but i would say your seedlings are too small at this stage to be grafting onto a trich, try get your hand on some pereskiopsis if possible :)

    good luck, your off to a great start

    I would just like to take a moment to celebrate dump shops!

    i just scored a mountain of awesome old photography books, books about the Amazon rainforest, psychology text books and books about supernatural phenomena, all for $5!

    Check out your local dump shop and i'm sure you too will find some very nicely priced gems
