My dreams last night, really weird, scary yet parts were bliss

[synaesthesia]

I had the weirdest dream last night. Have a read of it, maybe some one can comment on it, even if you cant I still wanna share this weird dream with you guys.. See usually I don’t remember dreams and most times I don’t have them at all.

---------

Ok so it started off at home here in Australia and I cant remember it all, but next thing me and mum and dad are rushing in the airport, and then were on a plane, and its going to San Francisco

It lands at San Francisco and we started going shopping, we were in this massive shopping mall and the music was really loud they were playing “DJ Sammy – Heaven”

So we were back at the apartment and I got a text message saying my brother is missing. And he is back in Australia. I'm panicking and I don’t know what to do at the start.

So mum and me start to coordinate to find out who did it, by ringing around asking people and stuff like that. The weird thing though is that we didn’t leave San Francisco to come back home. And I remember being really frustrated and mum is crying and its weeks later, and I get a text message saying “Simon was found mutilated”. I remember feeling sick all over. Then the dream skips to another angle and mum is on the phone when some one tells her “Simon was found mutilated” I remember she went all white and just threw up. I then remember myself thinking for a while and frantically trying to call people to see whether he was still alive or not, even though I was pretty sure.

For the rest of that dream I kept trying to find Simon dead or alive, and finding out information on who did it and why and where he was at the time. But I just could never find out. And we never left San Francisco either.

That dream lasted me all night and I woke up by the alarm at 6.30am and I remembered it all vividly, I remember feeling kind of unsafe in my room like there was some one there watching me, waiting to kill me.

I went back to sleep for another hour, and I did fall back to sleep straight away.

It was a totally different dream… and it went in no order really.’

Straight away all I remember was making out with this girl, she was tall (my height) long wavy natural blonde hair, nice figure and had a great personality. For some reason I have this nagging suspicion her name was sammy?? Related to the song at the start of the other dream ???

We were making out on a bed, and it wasn’t at my house and I don’t think it was hers either. I was on top and just heavy making out at the start, which progressed etc…

Then it went really weird, she was driving me in her car along the riverside expressway in Brisbane, then she just stopped and I jumped out and ran across the expressway (because it was closed as they were resurfacing it). I remember running past all the crowds to the top steps at the treasury casino, and I was looking down upon everyone. Then I turned my head around and I was in the middle of the out back in Australia on a guided holiday tour.

I remember seeing that blonde girl there as a tourist (don’t know if she was foreign or Aussie) and the tour guide then stuck a rod into the ground and then sucked some water out and asked us all if we wanted to drink some bore water. I jumped right in and started drinking some. And that blonde girl was laughing and saying “ohhh id never drink that water”, she wasn’t laughing in a patronising tone, more like she thought I was funny.

I think that’s maybe where I met her?

Then straight away it skips to us to maccas and my mate Paul is there and so is that blonde girl and her female friend, and we are sitting eating lunch and making out, and next to me are some Coca seedlings of mine that I’m looking after???

Then we went to the beach and she’s topless and asking me to join her, then it goes to Paul’s house and I’m sleeping the night there and so is she, I’m in another bedroom and I remember thinking.. I really wanna see her right now, I know I saw her the last two nights, but I’ve got to again. And I walked outside Paul’s house and started tapping on the glass and she gets up, and for a while she’s not sure, because she says she’s tired from partying with me the last two nights, but in the end she does come out with me. and we were walking and laughing when I woke up again.

A really really really strange thing that happened somewhere in the second dream near the end was, all of a sudden “Simon was found mutilated” thing came up at the newspaper I was reading at maccas, it had all the info I was looking for in the previous dream.

He was murdered by a sick de ranged man who cut off his hands and then with a meat hook stabbed him with it many times in the stomach and in the back, then cut his toes off. I remembered feeling very sick…it then said he was buried in the ground.

This next bit is really weird.. It says Simon was murdered with three other people, two girls and a midget for some reason??

They were all together when the man murdered them and they were all killed in the same fashion. There was a photo in the newspaper they last one ever caught of all of them together, and it was in that blonde girls car in the maccas drive through camera.

I remembered feeling confused.. Like the girl that I loved was going to die?? Or had already died?? When I was sitting there reading the paper I thought.. Simon was only killed because that blonde girls boyfriend, must have known she was sleeping with me, and went out to kill me, but Simon was in the car instead of me but he didn’t know, and still proceeded to kill everyone.

Then the dream went back to normal like me making out with that blonde girl on the bed.

When I woke up at 7.45 I remembered it all vividly and its not 9am at work and I’m writing it all down.

That is it. Pretty good yet bad and strange hey?

Why did we go to San Francisco?

Why did Simon die?

Why didn’t we come back to Australia when we found out?

Why was sammy interconnected to the whole thing?

Why was I running on the riverside expressway?

Why was I in the middle of Australia drinking bore water?

Very interesting.

There's obviously quite alot of deeper things going on in it.

The key to it all is obviously the recurring theme of "Simon was found mutilated".

I don't believe this means that he will be murdered or mutilated in real life. Rather it is standing in for something else. I think it all depends on how you yourself view your brother and how he views himself. Whether you love, hate, are superior to or are envious of him. It can be interpreted around all those themes.

Is your brother self destructive?

To me it sounds as if your brother may be planning to do something as simple as getting a tattoo or a prominent piercing of some sort and he has probably 'died' in the sense that there is now emptiness in him as far as faith goes. Why San Francisco? Is your brother gay or is there a fear of homosexuality perhaps? The substitution event of him for you in the car is interesting from that aspect. Very cliched yes, but in dreams some things can relate to obvious things.

Try to look for the underlying things in real life that may be going on that relate to the obviously themed things occuring in that dream.

Thanks for the good reply sobriquet. It does help me to understand it all, specially since it rarely ever get dreams let alone such large ones that i can remember almost completely.

If i had a choice to wake up or stay in my dream world, i would have stayed in the dream world!

I hope i have a good dream tonight as well.

But yeah, thanks for reading it.

[Francois le Danque]

Good? that's just disturbing!

I love dreams. Theyre hot.

for some reason i really like ones where i'm running away form things. But it isnt like other people say where it's really scary and they dont know what's chasing them, i always know, and it's always really run. can run really fast and jump really high and run on walls and stupid things like that.

just my 2 cents. or 50.

...Then we went to the beach and she’s topless and asking me to join her,

You mates that have those kinds of dreams, damn you, damn you all! I never have dreams like that!

[mu!]

Dreams are twisted man, who knows if anyone can interpret them correctly with some degree of success, all i know is that the brain is very mysterious

A few nights ago i dreamt i was looking at my computer screen and it read '8:30AM' on the clock, and i woke up and it was 8:30AM on the dot Guess its just one of those weird things eh

When looking back at dreams, I find it useful to try and determine (ie. largely assume) which parts are crud and can be ignored as being just fillers. There are probably a number of key ideas present in that dream, while the rest is just lines connecting the dots - your mind trying to make sense.

Sex. Simon's mutilation. ???

Regarding the drinking of bore water, this seemed to gratify the girl, and might just be part of the dreams' sexual theme. (Although it might be noted that the girl is laughing again just before your second awakening.) Do you find it challenging to amuse girls? Is your brother more successful in this area of life?

Eh. I'm just amusing myself...

I once read that a man went to a sage with a dream, and told him the contents, and the sage asked him "what do u think it means". The man stated that the dream meant that he would die before the next day, and he did. Another man came to the sage with the same dream, and when asked, said that it meant that he would inherit a great fortune, and he did.

[something like that anyway...]

The moral of course being, that while it is important to see what your psyche is telling you, by predicting our fate, we often create it.

Dreams are amazing...

Its so interesting to just being a spectator, watching your mind make these realities. I find that i dream more vividly and actually have bigger and longer dreams when its quite hot and theres not alot of air flow in the room... alot of these dreams i have are so complex and weird that i could never explain them. I recon its kindof like what goes on in your head when on a strong acid trip. All the strange thoughts and unknown emotions. like you can explain whats actually happening in a dream, but thats not really properly explaining them, so much more to them...

For the last year or two, theres been this kindof continual theme to my dreams. sometimes i wont have these specific dreams for ages, then i might get them like every two weeks. then somtimes ill only dream about it every night for a whole week, and sometimes having about 3 of these huge epic dreams in one night.

Anyway about these dreams. every one of these dreams is different, but ill see this 'girl'. i dont know who she is, or even what she looks like. i never seem to look at her face when im dreaming. its kindof like looking at someone in the corner of your eye. But i know its the same girl in all of these dreams. Sometimes ill only see a glimpse of her, then i realise its her... and ill get excited, and try and focus on communicating with her. But then i wake up...

other times ill just be with her, holding her, or just whatever for ages... Sometimes were together in these weird situations. like one dream was: she's at my house, but sleeping in another room. and we just want to be together and like you know... get it on.... but all this shit comes up, and it never happens. like i somehow get taken away on a holiday with my family down to sydney. while shes still at my house waiting for me to come back. and when i get back shes gone. The one i had the other night was, i was at work and for some reason like chopper reid was chasing her in an old Ford Falcon. And we hid under this table/ cupboard thing... and we just lay there holding eachother. and our bodies connected, i could feel her body and mine, and vise versa. Both bodies just fit perfectly. I wish i could have just stayed there forever...

Ive thought so much about these dreams, and its just a mystery to me. Like who is she? is there any reason why im having these dreams? when im there in these dreams with her. Its like the most pure love... just like perfect. I wake up and im just devistated. Its like being torn away from your mother when you were a little kid. I have a feeling that this girl is someone i have known in my life, or met at some time. I have another weird feeling that she is a girl that has already died, and meets me in my dreams... i dont know, Its beyond me. But im kindof worried that when find the right girl, the love wont live up to that in my dreams...

Well thats not explaining much, ughhhh.... i wish i could explain this better. This is driving me crazy

Could i be in love with a figment of my imagination.

Why San Francisco? Is your brother gay or is there a fear of homosexuality perhaps?

this had me pissing myself laughing. you've never been to san francisco, have you?

[sobriquet]

Glad to have been of assistance in the mirth.

No I haven't been to SF nor its famous Castro district but that wasn't the point of my suggestion. It's common knowledge that SF is typified as the gay capital of the planet. Since dreams are assumed to be symbolic, I was just suggesting the common stereotype of SF as somehow representing homosexuality (even though I'm well aware the number of gay people, typically 2-4% of a population, is definitely in the minority given any large enough geographical area).
