Dear So,
I dinosaur museum means that you are in a place in your mind where you are being attacked by really ancient ways of dealing with things in the culture. You can kill the ancient cultural ways that are so attacking in the dream with the metal rod, but it won’t help you in terms of what to replace the ancient ways with. The old ways are like the hierarchical system that gives a few people a lot of power to do as they please. The new system is based upon everyone being equal and doing lots of positive things for the common good. So the first challenge is to feel equal and then the second challenge is to do a lot of positive acts for the benefit of others around you.
A couple of nights ago I had a dream that my car (not my waking life car) was broken into. I went out to my driveway and my car was missing both doors on the drivers side. I needed to get to work so I decided that I was just going to drive in Jeep style with no doors and when I went to get in I noticed the steering wheel was missing as well and I couldnt leave at all. I was just wondering who you steal my doors and steering wheel.
Dear C, It is actually the right question, but if you think of it in a metaphoric way, it will be enlightening for you. Who is trying to stop you from getting to where you want to go in your life? There is a who. If you can answer that question then you can get to a solution. Someone in the present or past doesn’t/didn’t want you to get to where you want/wanted to go.
[continued] the scientist with whom i had been in conversation turned to me and said”it is imperative we get to her before they do. this is an emergency. they do not have any implants in her head,thank god ME;are you quite certain? SCIENTIST:if they did she never would have been able to escape. i am going to notify a source who can help. and he turned, strolled over to a booth lit by blue-green light ,pressed a button on a panel, which lit yellow. then i heard the sound of a phone ringing. i realized this was a no-hands communication booth. then someone answered VOICE: hello main station. commando unit XP-125,commander 87 speaking SCIENTIST: we have an emergency here. she has escaped from their facility but seems to be somewhat disoriented. one of their armed patrol cars are about 8 blocks to the east. they have not found her yet but chances are high that they will COMMANDER: how close are they ?SCIENTIST: as i said, they are about 8 blocks to the east but moving in parallel with her. it was then that i looked out the window and saw something. i signaled to the scientist “they just turned in her direction” SCIENTIST: yes, thank you. the friend {a code name used to refer to someone friendly who was not a member of their organization} says they just turned in their direction. they must NOT be allowed to re-capture her COMMANDER: i’ll have the whole ready in 3 minutes SCIENTIST: [berathes a sigh of relief] thank god [to me] believe me ,there is no situation squadron XP-125 cannot handle, they will be more than a match for the patrol. i looked out the window. the night sky was full of hovercraft, something half small plane,half helicopter that i thought was a transport craft. and one airship that was luminous. it looked like a pyramid at the top but was rectangular at the bottom. it shone with white and purple light. SCIENTIST: there they go . she is rescued. i was relieved but then much to my disappointment i woke up. and this is one of the most vivid dreams i have ever had. i know you will do just as well here as you always do. i really wanted to see what happened next. the fact that they would send heavily patrols to re-capture patients(?) that escape no doubt says a great deal
Hi James,
The problem in the dream is that while they contained the messed that they made through a huge effort, they have not solved to fundamental issue of the dream, which is the belief that through material means, you can alter a person’s being. What you need to wake up to is that you are probably much better suited to helping people transform themselves than material science.
{continued] she moved and danced across the floor with incredible speed and ran up the stairs before anyone could interfere. she ran up the stairs with the speed of an Olympic racer sometimes taking them 3 at a time. then on the 16th floor she suddenly stopped in front of a locked window which she pried open with her bare hands, then jumped out. no blame was attached to the doctor who prescribed the medication. official it was set down to someone’s neglect in locking the window which was an outright lie. the window was locked so securely not only with double but triple locks. so tightly secured as they said at the time not even Houdini could have gotten through it. now you have a fairly clear picture of what is happening here. i did indeed. not a pleasant picture but a clear one i went to the window to see what was happening. i saw the woman crossing the street in a diagonal pattern toward a city park. and i also saw something else. a car belonging to “them” was moving slowly down a wide street about 8 blocks to the east from where she was. with my dream vision i was able to zero in on this car and see that they were armed. and not lightly armed,either they had an eagle pistol 429 , a high powered long range rifle, and an sub machine gun . fine company for supposed healers. by comparison “our” car(about 5 blocks to the west and 2 blocks south in a lane) was very lightly armed, having only one pistol of small caliber and a few grappling weapons. it was never quite clear who “they” and “we” were but you can draw your own conclusions [continued]
Dear James,
The epic technology dream seems to be about you wrestling with the questions about the use of technology. Some of it is positive like assessing the vitamin and mineral levels in a person’s body. This is, no doubt, the positive use of science. The negative use of science is with the woman in the dream, which is trying to use material means to speed a process that is essentially non-material in nature. It is a huge problem that science has because a significant percentage of the scientific community believes that humans are animals with a larger brain. Because of this they believe that chemicals and other physical procedures can make people into super human or cure things which are caused by non-material actions such as abuse or neglect. When you think of humans as dual-natured, material and non-material (spirit), then science can develop much better means for facilitating accelerated growth. I always like the metaphor of grass. You can nurture the growth with sunshine, water, and fertilizer, but you cannot force it to grow faster than it is ready for, which seems to be what science is trying to do in the dream. It is why pharmaceuticals are and can never be the full means by which people transform. There are too many side-effects like the dream shows. Growth of human capacity is a largely a nurturing process.
Richard, your analysis of this is incisive and to the point ,as usual. the scientists i was with understood holistic healing , unlike the others who are of a materialistic frame of mind. however they are also dangerous because their methods are like that of an Orwellian police state. this dream is as you point out my coming to grips with the problem of both positive and negative applications of technology and my fear of the latter. i should have the rest of the dream posted soon
{continued} i sat there waiting for the serum to take effect (i had a slight headache when i entered which my scientist friend said was from being exposed to a mild form of radiation used when scanning the area around the building. the serum was an antidote) i noticed some of the scientists gathered at a window facing north. so i asked them about it. for an answer one of them pointed at a certain location and said “look there”. with my dream vision i could see exactly where he indicated. i saw a woman with long dark hair wandering the city streets with a dazed expression. by this time it was night. she crossed the street at an overpass and looked at the busy highway below. for a minute i was afraid she might jump,but no. she turned and wandered the street with an intense expression on her face. one of the scientists said “this is serious. we have to get to her before they do” ME;please explain SCIENTIST; she was in one of their facilities for treatment. she found out they were planning to use her for experimental purposes. she escaped but not before they had tampered with her brain with so-called medications, which were really mind altering drugs. she saw what was happening to the patients around her. the ones “cured” were little better than walking zombies. she had gone in because of violent headaches, seeing visions and hearing voices. this facility is supposedly a treatment center but in reality it is run like a prison patients are drugged into a state of either vegetation or euphoria. in either case they cease to be “productive members of society ” as they would put it. and they do not hesitate to use force when a patient is “UN-co-operative” which can mean anything from wanting to know what they are being treated for to showing signs of independent thought. they say one patient after being “helped” in this way became euphoric and jumped out of a 16 story window under the illusion she could fly ME; what? were there not attendants to restrain her? SCIENTIST; oh,yes but one side effe4ct of this particular drug.it has been known to make patients not only delusional but brings out faculties which until then had been dormant {continued}
[continued] some of the technology they had developed was truly amazing. one invention they had for diagnosing a patient was used by having a patient sit in a chair, then wires were strapped to both wrists then a mechanical helmet was lowered which covered the entire face. it was capable of reading what vitamins and minerals were plentiful and which were deficient,the body’s metabolism and body fluids , which nerves were damaged and where,what bones were not aligned, which tissues were healthy, what vital organs were functioning as they should be and which were not,the patients oxygen level,the thinness and thickness of the blood, and the brainwave pattern, to sun up this machine could ascertain in 10 minutes what most doctors would require months even years to find out. they had a frequency healing combined with a light beam which they claimed could work wonders in a patients recovery. but there was more. there were high frequency communication devices for reaching places all over the world, also very advanced forms of transportation.elevators and small transportation cars used from getting from one part of the building to another and which moved on magnetic energy. i noticed they never used the stairs when it was a matter of anything top secret but only used these highly developed craft [continued]
[continued] as i gazed at the technology around me i happened to notice a screen with different wave patterns on it . some were straight ,some zigzag pattern. a scientist standing nearby explained ” these are the wavelength patterns of all sound and transmission waves including radar and sonar waves in the area” then he pressed a button “here is where you were 3 hours ago” suddenly i saw myself at the intersection several blocks away. only now there were all sorts of wave patterns visible. he explained “those are ELF UHF and electromagnetic frequency waves exactly 3 hours ago at the intersection” ME; my god, what a lot of activity SCIENTIST; darn right there was. they were scanning the whole area ME;I it felt as though i were walking through a sticky substance SCIENTIST; now you know why. they scan everyone within 10 blocks of this place. we scan too ME; but not so destructively, i think SCIENTIST; heck no, someone could get cancer from their beams if exposed to them long enough. all they care about is identifying who comes in or out of this building ME;{suddenly aware of the implications of that last remark} that is not reassuring SCIENTIST; darn right it’s not ME; but what are those searchlight beams i see SCIENTIST;they monitor all the air traffic here ME; so you keep a record of all the frequencies here SCIENTIST;all the frequencies their parameters and what they are capable of affecting. come on ,like to see some of our technology [continued]
I had dream about a guy I am interested. I had a dream I was in jail that was all white and I was overweight and I was stuck on my bed. The guy I was interested came in to visit me with his female friend, and he was happy to see me. He looked kind of mentally ill. I held my hands up to hug him and he came to my bed and we were cuddling. I remember thinking how weird this was and I did not know what was going on but it felt normal to him. He was talking the whole time. Then he got up to leave and he told his female friend that I was the one and he left my jail cell.
Dear Emma,
The problem in the dream is that the guy is attracted to you and hugs you when you are in jail, overweight, and stuck from moving. If you were light and free and could easily get to where you want to go in life, he may not be interested in you because might be a threat to him. It just seems that he loves that you are confined because then it is easier to control you. This is an easy one to test. If you can learn to be really free and unconstrained in your life, it will change who you are attracted to. You will want someone who supports your freedom.
Last night right before I got up for the day I had a dream that I was at my house (no my waking life house and no house I have ever seen/been to in waking llife) it was in a neighborhood. Anyways I was there and I left my car running out front because I was about to go back out there. I guess I took a nap and woke up and bought some plane tickets that didnt make sense and I was trying to cancel to go see my mom. I went out front and my car was gone. I could see the large water puddle from the ac running that whole time. I tracked my car on my phone and I am in Texas and my car was all the way up in Tennessee – then I had like a birds eye view of my car traveling in real time and the person who stole it crashed it. I was very sad and whimpering. Stressed from needing to cancel plane tickets that had me in NY for 4 hours to see my mom before having to be on a plane back (who in waking life lives in Indiana and has never been to NY) and because my car is now stolen and crashed.
Earlier in the night I had a dream about my ex-in laws — my 1st husbands parents — my 1st husband passed away in 2018, but we split in 2009 and didnt talk even though we had a daughter together he never made efforts to come around and see or talk to her. But I was at their house and their house was odd. The living room was like 20ft ceilings and the outer wall was floor to ceiling windows and they had their tv there and covered 3/4 of the windows so it didnt mess with the TV glare. I recall the coverings were tacky and ugly and I was talking to my ex-father in law about a more cute way to make the windows that would be more pleasing to the eye. Also not their house in waking life and I talk to them in waking life maybe once a year when I make a trip to Indiana so my daughter can see them.
Dear C,
In the first dream you are trying to get to be with your mom, while in the second dream you are visiting with your in-laws. They seem more like responsibilities than joys for you so I am thinking that the house you are in is the house of the self inside that feels overly responsible. When you are in that house, you lose you ability to get to where you actually want to go. (car stolen).
So I think that the dream is telling you to leave the overly responsible self for a more joyful and lighter self. You can keep the virtue of responsibility, but it needs to be moderated, and a lot lighter so that more joy can come in. When you have a more balanced self, you will get to where you are headed much easier.
that is spot on — they all feel like responsibilities with little joy with them much of the time. It makes perfect sense.
Last night I had a dream that I had a full mustache, goatee and I grew it out and that was not normal for a woman to do, much like to todays society. My husband was supportive of my decision even though he preferred it be gone, but would stand up for me and support me in my choice to grow it out. I later decided to cut it all off and have a facial hair free female face and I did cut it all off. I was then touching the skin where the 5 o clock shadows would be and was not happy that my skin was not soft and hairless like it used to be
Dear C,
Although there is a bit of conflict in the dream because you are a female with masculine, and that affects the way you appear in the world, in the inner world of spiritual energy or capacity there is no conflict. In the inner world you can have what we label as “feminine qualities” and also “masculine qualities” because both are useful in putting yourself out in the world and doing positive things. You can be tough like having being tough-skinned and you can be soft and loving like having soft skin.
[continued] there were all sorts of dials, charts and machines whose function. i could not figure out. but some i could make out. one luminated chart had graphs recording all of the air currents of the world. another one did the same for the ocean currents. The speeds and velocity of the winds and the possibility of a hurricane in one area, the warmth and temperature of the water, for example in the North Sea and the Indian ocean, the velocity of the winds in the Andes and the Himalayas, and not only that. the quality of the air and water in each given area [continued]
Dear James,
I am guessing there is more to come. You turned south which is usually the wrong direction, but in this case, it keeps you in the world of fascination which is where the dream seems to want to take you. There is a bit of astonishment to because you probably didn’t expect the things you found. So your life needs fascination (that is clear). Wondering where this is headed.
this dream begins with me walking down a city street in heavy traffic, then coming to a 4-way stop and crossing the street then turning north after going about 6 blocks i came to very dilapidated looking building -on the exterior. when I opened the door and walked in it was completely different. it was very modern with state-of-the-art technology. it had a chrome and silver elevator, very silent, capable of holding maximum 58 passengers, with broad metal stairways on either side. i took the left-hand stairway. after 5 floors it reached a large mezzanine area which was as far as this elevator went. again, separated into 2 stairways. again, I took the south stairway. (Funny how you are aware of directions in dream state) after i had gone up about 3 floors, a door opened on the side and a group of people I knew to be professional-they were all dressed in white coats- came out. about four flights up they stopped in front of a large metal door and entered a code on a pushbutton panel to gain access. the door slid open. much to my surprise they invited me in. so, I went in. once inside the only word for what I saw around is fascinating. [continued]
Dear Richard,
I had this dream few days back and saw it again last night.
The dream was so vivid I felt as if it was real. In my dream I saw a huge field.(I don’t know where this field is since I haven’t seen it ever). It is sort of evening like it had rained and there are grey clouds as if it’s going to rain again. The field is totally cover with dense fog yet one can make sense of figures standing in distance. I felt lost and when I tried reaching to the figures standing in the distance to ask where we are I realised that the people standing are my family members, friends and acquaintances. Everyone is standing from one another at a distance and is oblivious to other persons presence in the same field. Some are in a group of three or two and some are standing alone and crying. When I went near them to talk to them and ask them about why they are crying they can’t hear me or see me. I try to touch them but they can’t feel my touch or presence at all. I screamed and cried but they couldn’t hear at all. I woke up terrified from this dream in the middle of the night (might be around 2:30) I was so horrified as if I had just died and came back to life. I had the same dream again last night. I am terrified and can’t sleep. I am unable to understand what could have caused a dream like this and what would it mean. Please tell me what does it mean and what can I do to solve if it’s a problem of some sort so I can sleep peacefully.
Dear S.G.
The problem in the dream is that you would like to get closer to your family members and others, but there is no response from them as if they cannot hear or see you and then you are horrified and cannot sleep because it recurs. To be able to connect to people so that you are close to them, what you need to learn how to do and what the dream is asking of you is to focus only on their positive energy, not their negative. The fog may be your tendency to see negative things in others instead of positive. All close relationships between all human beings are fundamentally those where people see the best in each other and support each other to draw even more positive out. Be clear (rather than foggy or cloudy) about seeing the positive in others and acknowledging it out loud to them, and then you will be at peace and be able to sleep. Even if it seems uncomfortable, do it anyway.
What does it mean to see a persons name in your dream? I started sleeping with a close friend of mine in real life. I feel like we have a deep connection but, of course, it’s a total disaster lol. But I haven’t spoken to him in a little over a month but I had a dream where I read his name clear as day. I think I saw it on my phone as if he was calling me. But I keep seeing it clear as day. Usually I don’t play into dreams like this while I have a love interest, but I can’t ever remember seeing words in my dreams
Dear Celia,
So in real life if you started sleeping with a close friend, it means that have an attraction to the person and you want to become even more intimate. That it is a disaster and you haven’t talked in a month means that you want to hear or see his name, but there are a lot of unresolved issues that cause the relationship not to work. You don’t have to worry about losing attraction. It is usually the first one on the scene in a new relationship. What you should be concerned about are the disastrous elements. If you can work on them or work them out, then the relationship can work, but it usually takes the two of you working on them together to have success.
Going to be with someone too soon is usually a recipe for disaster. I always like to see couples working on a project together or doing challenging service together. That is when you see another person’s character.
Richard I have been having vivid dreams per usual and ignoring the feeling to look deeper into them from being ‘too busy’. Last night though I had the oddest dream and I am so curious as to the symbolic message.
Last night (Aug 14) I had a dream that I was still married to my first husband (in waking life he dies on Aug 14 2018!! — wow I’m in a little shock that the dream was the EXACT day of his death). Anyways in the dream we were still married and we had our daughter (that we have in waking life). Also note in waking life while we were married he was abusive and was one of the many reasons I divorced and left.
There was this house and it had been abandoned. In this dream I was connected to this house, as if it was where I lived with this husband; but in waking life it does not ring a bell. Well there was books in there that were secret knowledge – like holistic healing, secret methods to ascension, ect- I went into the house to destroy the books but then I decided against it and was going to keep them. they were all in a trash bag. The house was on water – it felt like a lake – then the house caught fire and it was burning so fast. I tried to grab the bag of books and run to the back dock but the house burned right up and I fell into the water.
Also in the dream he was still abusive. I did not see him actually abusing BUT i knew in the dream it was happening and I was scared so I took my daughter – she was a little younger than she currently is in waking life – and we ran! We were in a big city that I do not recognize in waking life and he was coming after us and every time we would hide he would find us and we would run somewhere else. We found a place with security where the door was locked heavily from the inside so we hid here. This was a small room with a twin bed and cleaning supplies and no bathroom. When we felt safe we left and again over and over he would find us and we would run. He would also be yelling at me, but i dont recall any of the things.
We made it back to that safe room and we had apparently pooped in the bucket the first time because when we went back the bucket had poop in it and we had to go again. The door was locked and the security lady and others were in there with us. There was a knock at the door and it was a voice of a male security officer so the female officer opened the door and with him was my husband and he was mad. My heart was racing so fast that it woke me up. I tried to go back to sleep to see what happened next knowing it was only a dream, but I couldn’t get back into that dream.
A few notes for waking life – i know some bits I have told you before but I will mention again as they pertain to this husband. First, I have dreamed of him a handful of times since his death and in all my dreams but one he was upset/angry with me and yelling and scaring me. We were married young and high school sweethearts who grew up together. When I left him in 2010ish he kept minimal contact with our daughter for a year. After that he never reached out to talk to her or see her – 7 years passed and when our daughter was 9 he died. She knows so little about him because he was so absent from her life. His temperament was generally pleasant, but when he would drink or do drugs he would become very angry — and he was typically drinking or high on drugs making him angry and mean (to me) much of the time. People will say he was a good person or friend and to them he very well could have been but as a husband and father he was not very great.
Dear C,
The house in the dream that burned down represents the you who was married and abused by him. So it has the aspect of fear of being abused, but it also has a more holistic healing side of you that you are trying to keep. You cannot let go of the fear completely even though you have been out of the relationship for 13 years because you do not want to lose the holistic healing side, but it burns anyway and then the rest of the dream is about trying to get away from him and keep your daughter safe.
You can let go of the fear of being abused again, the memories connected to the abuse, and focus on the holistic healing, by realizing that the two are totally unconnected. Healing methods are for benefiting others and helping you and others to have a better life, but your mind has abuse and healing together in the same place, in the same “house”.
Try doing something like this. Take a piece of letter-sized paper, fold it in half, then lay it on the desk, landscape orientation. On the right side write the abilities you have that are more healing or intuitive in nature even how your relational abilities help others. On the left side write what it was like living in an abusive relationship including the pain and suffering. You can even draw images of what each side is like metaphorically. Then cut the paper down the middle so that the two selves are separated. Take a match and burn the left side. Keep reading the right side to yourself everyday and adding to it. Remind yourself each day that you are safe as long as you are your true self. Danger comes when you are ruled by fear.
Last night I had a dream where one of my teeth had the start of a cavity and as I looked all around the tooth there were about 15-20 little spots where a cavity was starting all in the same single tooth. I was looking around it like it was out of my mouth so I could see it all, but it was securely in my mouth.
I just remembered a second part of the dream – not sure if it was before or after the above. But I cut my own hair off in the dream. In waking life my hair is 7-10inches past my shoulders, so kind of long. In the dream it was this current length and I dont recall why but I grabbed kitchen scissors and cut it like just below my ear, but above my chin and one side was longer than the other and it was a natural blonde color (in waking life my natural hair is brown and I dont color it at all). I hated the hair cut and got upset about it.
Dear C,
First of all when you have a cavity of a tooth in your dream it means that you have “holes” in your thinking and decision making process. Teeth are what are needed to chew on ideas so that you can digest ideas and make good decisions. Cutting your hair means that you are cutting off your power or empowerment. What you can do with this dream is ask yourself how your thinking process goes awry and how do you give up your empowerment? Usually is has to do for the sake of not being displeasing to others. To maintain your thinking process and power you have to be willing to be displeasing to others at times for the sake of longer term positive goals and ideals.
Hi Chris,
I hope that you are well. I’ve been recently having new dreams and more unusual than ever before. In my latest dream I had pierced my skin with sewing pins,it wasn’t painful and I did it because in my dream I noticed a separation line forming on my left forearm, it looked like I could peel it away despite it looking healthy. Piercing the skin wasn’t painful and every now and then I would check that it’s okay, after a while it looked like the sewing pins were disappearing into my skin. I had a thought rise up that the way my skin was behaving as a rolled out sweet pastry, delicate and soft and adaptable in the way it was reacting and absorbing the sewing pins. I then woke up very puzzled, it wasn’t a disturbing but an intriguing dream for me. I would greatly appreciate your insight on figuring out it’s meaning.
Mishel
Dear Mishel,
Skin serves as a protective function in the body for what lays inside. You can think of this dream as saying that flexibility or being pliable is a way of protecting your inner self. Too much rigidity can cause a lot of pain and leave you in a negative emotional state. When you are flexible, you don’t break, but you can also deal with really difficult situations in life where people are not so positive that are around you.
well, Richard. here is what be the next to the last post of this,one of the most lucid dreams i ever had ,along with being one of the most remarkable. i should have it posted by the end of the week. you are absolutely right about it being about positive energy overcoming the negative. this started out as a battle and ended almost as a carnival. do you know of any more drastic transformation than that?
as i walked over what had just been a fierce battleground, i saw unforgettable sights,but not unforgettable in the same way battlefield sights usually are. everywhere our recent enemies were getting up,and they seemed in better spirits and in greater health than before(whereas at Antietam,Gettysburg or Lundy’s lane i think i am safe in asserting that they were not) just an hour before they were deadly enemies, now it was almost as though they were just meeting long lost friends. i was not alone in my surprise. some of the enemy who had not been hit by beams were gazing in open mouthed astonishment. one of them said “That Dr Isiah of yours sure has one heck of a mind altering weapon” i agreed. walking across the field who should i come across but C- who had gone on a scouting mission on his own and been captured. ME:well C- you seem remarkably healthy for having gone through what you did. C: yes,i sure am.i had a birds eye view of the battle ME;we were afraid you were dead or permanently injured C: nah, they didn’t kill me just took me prisoner ME: what was that incredible thing he used C: i don’t know how it works myself but as soon as he got me back to their camp he let me go.just told me i was a prisoner and as long as i behaved myself i should be all right ME: that’s surprising. somehow i thought you would get rough treatment C: so did i but one of their captains happened to be present and told me i was a POW for the duration of the fight and left two men to guard me. treated me all right.even got me something to eat. C: well well,so they are not all bad after all. C:nope.not those fellows anyway A NEW VOICE: there are some of us bad and some of us good. i am somewhere in between. even before i turned around i recognized the voice. none other than the obstructionist who had brought C in and held the amazing lasso. ME:well,hello again. i hardly thought to make your acquaintance once more.i see you seem to have done very well for yourself EX-OBSTRUCTIONIST: that comes from looking out for number one. i sure was not in that field getting zapped like those fanatic blockheads ME:a very developed sense of self-preservation EXO: you got that one right,mister . ME: i could not help noticing your remarkable lasso. i have never seen anything like that before EXO: darn right you haven’t. its practically the only one of its kind in the world ME: could you tell me how it works? EXO: i could but you wouldn’t understand. it works differently from anything here [continued]
Hi James. Sorry for the long delay. I have been traveling and only getting to this now. Basically what I get out of the experience is that you needed to learn to have courage to face your life battles against both inward and outward enemies, that you have inner leadership represented by Dr. Isiah, which is really you but you haven’t full incorporated yet. The result of having courage to face your life battles makes the world and everyone a more friendly and beautiful space with everyone having special gives like how Exo can lasso like lassoing people in a positive way to good ideas. If you frame everything as positive you are going to get a lot of positive results.
Richard, you are correct about in your analysis,as usual . i still have not decided whether Dr Isiah is a spirit guide or a part of me yet unexplored.or maybe both. about the healing you are absolutely right. but this dream has a trick ending,which at first glance may seem to be unrelated,i have not decided whether or not i will include or just let the dream stand where it is. this final part is,if anything,even more puzzling than the first part. but it would reveal a lot of my subconscious . if i decide to continue with it it should be posted in the next week sometime. as always, you get down to the deeper meaning of things
Dear James,

I keep dreaming about a dybbuk box even though I’ve never actually seen one in person and there is an item in the box that I can’t ever seem to actually see. What does this mean?
Dear Chris,
A dyybuk is a box where you store things. In this case you are storing negative memories in the box that you cannot let go of. When you store negative memories without letting the energy go, it tends to create negative in your life. If you can identify the negative memories and then free yourself of them, you will find that you feel much lighter and freer to get to where you are going in your life.

Dinosaur museum . Velociraptor tries to bite hand . Velociraptor wants to eat me chasing me in a car park . I get a metal rod and stab in heart
Dear So,
I dinosaur museum means that you are in a place in your mind where you are being attacked by really ancient ways of dealing with things in the culture. You can kill the ancient cultural ways that are so attacking in the dream with the metal rod, but it won’t help you in terms of what to replace the ancient ways with. The old ways are like the hierarchical system that gives a few people a lot of power to do as they please. The new system is based upon everyone being equal and doing lots of positive things for the common good. So the first challenge is to feel equal and then the second challenge is to do a lot of positive acts for the benefit of others around you.
A couple of nights ago I had a dream that my car (not my waking life car) was broken into. I went out to my driveway and my car was missing both doors on the drivers side. I needed to get to work so I decided that I was just going to drive in Jeep style with no doors and when I went to get in I noticed the steering wheel was missing as well and I couldnt leave at all. I was just wondering who you steal my doors and steering wheel.
Dear C, It is actually the right question, but if you think of it in a metaphoric way, it will be enlightening for you. Who is trying to stop you from getting to where you want to go in your life? There is a who. If you can answer that question then you can get to a solution. Someone in the present or past doesn’t/didn’t want you to get to where you want/wanted to go.
[continued] the scientist with whom i had been in conversation turned to me and said”it is imperative we get to her before they do. this is an emergency. they do not have any implants in her head,thank god ME;are you quite certain? SCIENTIST:if they did she never would have been able to escape. i am going to notify a source who can help. and he turned, strolled over to a booth lit by blue-green light ,pressed a button on a panel, which lit yellow. then i heard the sound of a phone ringing. i realized this was a no-hands communication booth. then someone answered VOICE: hello main station. commando unit XP-125,commander 87 speaking SCIENTIST: we have an emergency here. she has escaped from their facility but seems to be somewhat disoriented. one of their armed patrol cars are about 8 blocks to the east. they have not found her yet but chances are high that they will COMMANDER: how close are they ?SCIENTIST: as i said, they are about 8 blocks to the east but moving in parallel with her. it was then that i looked out the window and saw something. i signaled to the scientist “they just turned in her direction” SCIENTIST: yes, thank you. the friend {a code name used to refer to someone friendly who was not a member of their organization} says they just turned in their direction. they must NOT be allowed to re-capture her COMMANDER: i’ll have the whole ready in 3 minutes SCIENTIST: [berathes a sigh of relief] thank god [to me] believe me ,there is no situation squadron XP-125 cannot handle, they will be more than a match for the patrol. i looked out the window. the night sky was full of hovercraft, something half small plane,half helicopter that i thought was a transport craft. and one airship that was luminous. it looked like a pyramid at the top but was rectangular at the bottom. it shone with white and purple light. SCIENTIST: there they go . she is rescued. i was relieved but then much to my disappointment i woke up. and this is one of the most vivid dreams i have ever had. i know you will do just as well here as you always do. i really wanted to see what happened next. the fact that they would send heavily patrols to re-capture patients(?) that escape no doubt says a great deal
Hi James,
The problem in the dream is that while they contained the messed that they made through a huge effort, they have not solved to fundamental issue of the dream, which is the belief that through material means, you can alter a person’s being. What you need to wake up to is that you are probably much better suited to helping people transform themselves than material science.
{continued] she moved and danced across the floor with incredible speed and ran up the stairs before anyone could interfere. she ran up the stairs with the speed of an Olympic racer sometimes taking them 3 at a time. then on the 16th floor she suddenly stopped in front of a locked window which she pried open with her bare hands, then jumped out. no blame was attached to the doctor who prescribed the medication. official it was set down to someone’s neglect in locking the window which was an outright lie. the window was locked so securely not only with double but triple locks. so tightly secured as they said at the time not even Houdini could have gotten through it. now you have a fairly clear picture of what is happening here. i did indeed. not a pleasant picture but a clear one i went to the window to see what was happening. i saw the woman crossing the street in a diagonal pattern toward a city park. and i also saw something else. a car belonging to “them” was moving slowly down a wide street about 8 blocks to the east from where she was. with my dream vision i was able to zero in on this car and see that they were armed. and not lightly armed,either they had an eagle pistol 429 , a high powered long range rifle, and an sub machine gun . fine company for supposed healers. by comparison “our” car(about 5 blocks to the west and 2 blocks south in a lane) was very lightly armed, having only one pistol of small caliber and a few grappling weapons. it was never quite clear who “they” and “we” were but you can draw your own conclusions [continued]
Dear James,
The epic technology dream seems to be about you wrestling with the questions about the use of technology. Some of it is positive like assessing the vitamin and mineral levels in a person’s body. This is, no doubt, the positive use of science. The negative use of science is with the woman in the dream, which is trying to use material means to speed a process that is essentially non-material in nature. It is a huge problem that science has because a significant percentage of the scientific community believes that humans are animals with a larger brain. Because of this they believe that chemicals and other physical procedures can make people into super human or cure things which are caused by non-material actions such as abuse or neglect. When you think of humans as dual-natured, material and non-material (spirit), then science can develop much better means for facilitating accelerated growth. I always like the metaphor of grass. You can nurture the growth with sunshine, water, and fertilizer, but you cannot force it to grow faster than it is ready for, which seems to be what science is trying to do in the dream. It is why pharmaceuticals are and can never be the full means by which people transform. There are too many side-effects like the dream shows. Growth of human capacity is a largely a nurturing process.
Richard, your analysis of this is incisive and to the point ,as usual. the scientists i was with understood holistic healing , unlike the others who are of a materialistic frame of mind. however they are also dangerous because their methods are like that of an Orwellian police state. this dream is as you point out my coming to grips with the problem of both positive and negative applications of technology and my fear of the latter. i should have the rest of the dream posted soon
{continued} i sat there waiting for the serum to take effect (i had a slight headache when i entered which my scientist friend said was from being exposed to a mild form of radiation used when scanning the area around the building. the serum was an antidote) i noticed some of the scientists gathered at a window facing north. so i asked them about it. for an answer one of them pointed at a certain location and said “look there”. with my dream vision i could see exactly where he indicated. i saw a woman with long dark hair wandering the city streets with a dazed expression. by this time it was night. she crossed the street at an overpass and looked at the busy highway below. for a minute i was afraid she might jump,but no. she turned and wandered the street with an intense expression on her face. one of the scientists said “this is serious. we have to get to her before they do” ME;please explain SCIENTIST; she was in one of their facilities for treatment. she found out they were planning to use her for experimental purposes. she escaped but not before they had tampered with her brain with so-called medications, which were really mind altering drugs. she saw what was happening to the patients around her. the ones “cured” were little better than walking zombies. she had gone in because of violent headaches, seeing visions and hearing voices. this facility is supposedly a treatment center but in reality it is run like a prison patients are drugged into a state of either vegetation or euphoria. in either case they cease to be “productive members of society ” as they would put it. and they do not hesitate to use force when a patient is “UN-co-operative” which can mean anything from wanting to know what they are being treated for to showing signs of independent thought. they say one patient after being “helped” in this way became euphoric and jumped out of a 16 story window under the illusion she could fly ME; what? were there not attendants to restrain her? SCIENTIST; oh,yes but one side effe4ct of this particular drug.it has been known to make patients not only delusional but brings out faculties which until then had been dormant {continued}
[continued] some of the technology they had developed was truly amazing. one invention they had for diagnosing a patient was used by having a patient sit in a chair, then wires were strapped to both wrists then a mechanical helmet was lowered which covered the entire face. it was capable of reading what vitamins and minerals were plentiful and which were deficient,the body’s metabolism and body fluids , which nerves were damaged and where,what bones were not aligned, which tissues were healthy, what vital organs were functioning as they should be and which were not,the patients oxygen level,the thinness and thickness of the blood, and the brainwave pattern, to sun up this machine could ascertain in 10 minutes what most doctors would require months even years to find out. they had a frequency healing combined with a light beam which they claimed could work wonders in a patients recovery. but there was more. there were high frequency communication devices for reaching places all over the world, also very advanced forms of transportation.elevators and small transportation cars used from getting from one part of the building to another and which moved on magnetic energy. i noticed they never used the stairs when it was a matter of anything top secret but only used these highly developed craft [continued]
[continued] as i gazed at the technology around me i happened to notice a screen with different wave patterns on it . some were straight ,some zigzag pattern. a scientist standing nearby explained ” these are the wavelength patterns of all sound and transmission waves including radar and sonar waves in the area” then he pressed a button “here is where you were 3 hours ago” suddenly i saw myself at the intersection several blocks away. only now there were all sorts of wave patterns visible. he explained “those are ELF UHF and electromagnetic frequency waves exactly 3 hours ago at the intersection” ME; my god, what a lot of activity SCIENTIST; darn right there was. they were scanning the whole area ME;I it felt as though i were walking through a sticky substance SCIENTIST; now you know why. they scan everyone within 10 blocks of this place. we scan too ME; but not so destructively, i think SCIENTIST; heck no, someone could get cancer from their beams if exposed to them long enough. all they care about is identifying who comes in or out of this building ME;{suddenly aware of the implications of that last remark} that is not reassuring SCIENTIST; darn right it’s not ME; but what are those searchlight beams i see SCIENTIST;they monitor all the air traffic here ME; so you keep a record of all the frequencies here SCIENTIST;all the frequencies their parameters and what they are capable of affecting. come on ,like to see some of our technology [continued]
Hello Richard
I had dream about a guy I am interested. I had a dream I was in jail that was all white and I was overweight and I was stuck on my bed. The guy I was interested came in to visit me with his female friend, and he was happy to see me. He looked kind of mentally ill. I held my hands up to hug him and he came to my bed and we were cuddling. I remember thinking how weird this was and I did not know what was going on but it felt normal to him. He was talking the whole time. Then he got up to leave and he told his female friend that I was the one and he left my jail cell.
Dear Emma,
The problem in the dream is that the guy is attracted to you and hugs you when you are in jail, overweight, and stuck from moving. If you were light and free and could easily get to where you want to go in life, he may not be interested in you because might be a threat to him. It just seems that he loves that you are confined because then it is easier to control you. This is an easy one to test. If you can learn to be really free and unconstrained in your life, it will change who you are attracted to. You will want someone who supports your freedom.
Richard,
Last night right before I got up for the day I had a dream that I was at my house (no my waking life house and no house I have ever seen/been to in waking llife) it was in a neighborhood. Anyways I was there and I left my car running out front because I was about to go back out there. I guess I took a nap and woke up and bought some plane tickets that didnt make sense and I was trying to cancel to go see my mom. I went out front and my car was gone. I could see the large water puddle from the ac running that whole time. I tracked my car on my phone and I am in Texas and my car was all the way up in Tennessee – then I had like a birds eye view of my car traveling in real time and the person who stole it crashed it. I was very sad and whimpering. Stressed from needing to cancel plane tickets that had me in NY for 4 hours to see my mom before having to be on a plane back (who in waking life lives in Indiana and has never been to NY) and because my car is now stolen and crashed.
Earlier in the night I had a dream about my ex-in laws — my 1st husbands parents — my 1st husband passed away in 2018, but we split in 2009 and didnt talk even though we had a daughter together he never made efforts to come around and see or talk to her. But I was at their house and their house was odd. The living room was like 20ft ceilings and the outer wall was floor to ceiling windows and they had their tv there and covered 3/4 of the windows so it didnt mess with the TV glare. I recall the coverings were tacky and ugly and I was talking to my ex-father in law about a more cute way to make the windows that would be more pleasing to the eye. Also not their house in waking life and I talk to them in waking life maybe once a year when I make a trip to Indiana so my daughter can see them.
Dear C,
In the first dream you are trying to get to be with your mom, while in the second dream you are visiting with your in-laws. They seem more like responsibilities than joys for you so I am thinking that the house you are in is the house of the self inside that feels overly responsible. When you are in that house, you lose you ability to get to where you actually want to go. (car stolen).
So I think that the dream is telling you to leave the overly responsible self for a more joyful and lighter self. You can keep the virtue of responsibility, but it needs to be moderated, and a lot lighter so that more joy can come in. When you have a more balanced self, you will get to where you are headed much easier.
Richard,
that is spot on — they all feel like responsibilities with little joy with them much of the time. It makes perfect sense.
Last night I had a dream that I had a full mustache, goatee and I grew it out and that was not normal for a woman to do, much like to todays society. My husband was supportive of my decision even though he preferred it be gone, but would stand up for me and support me in my choice to grow it out. I later decided to cut it all off and have a facial hair free female face and I did cut it all off. I was then touching the skin where the 5 o clock shadows would be and was not happy that my skin was not soft and hairless like it used to be
Dear C,
Although there is a bit of conflict in the dream because you are a female with masculine, and that affects the way you appear in the world, in the inner world of spiritual energy or capacity there is no conflict. In the inner world you can have what we label as “feminine qualities” and also “masculine qualities” because both are useful in putting yourself out in the world and doing positive things. You can be tough like having being tough-skinned and you can be soft and loving like having soft skin.
[continued] there were all sorts of dials, charts and machines whose function. i could not figure out. but some i could make out. one luminated chart had graphs recording all of the air currents of the world. another one did the same for the ocean currents. The speeds and velocity of the winds and the possibility of a hurricane in one area, the warmth and temperature of the water, for example in the North Sea and the Indian ocean, the velocity of the winds in the Andes and the Himalayas, and not only that. the quality of the air and water in each given area [continued]
Dear James,
I am guessing there is more to come. You turned south which is usually the wrong direction, but in this case, it keeps you in the world of fascination which is where the dream seems to want to take you. There is a bit of astonishment to because you probably didn’t expect the things you found. So your life needs fascination (that is clear). Wondering where this is headed.
Richard, i have preoccupied with other things but now here is the rest of the dream
this dream begins with me walking down a city street in heavy traffic, then coming to a 4-way stop and crossing the street then turning north after going about 6 blocks i came to very dilapidated looking building -on the exterior. when I opened the door and walked in it was completely different. it was very modern with state-of-the-art technology. it had a chrome and silver elevator, very silent, capable of holding maximum 58 passengers, with broad metal stairways on either side. i took the left-hand stairway. after 5 floors it reached a large mezzanine area which was as far as this elevator went. again, separated into 2 stairways. again, I took the south stairway. (Funny how you are aware of directions in dream state) after i had gone up about 3 floors, a door opened on the side and a group of people I knew to be professional-they were all dressed in white coats- came out. about four flights up they stopped in front of a large metal door and entered a code on a pushbutton panel to gain access. the door slid open. much to my surprise they invited me in. so, I went in. once inside the only word for what I saw around is fascinating. [continued]
dear Richard, I think I will let the last dream remain as it is but i will be posting a new dream soon
Dear Richard,
I had this dream few days back and saw it again last night.
The dream was so vivid I felt as if it was real. In my dream I saw a huge field.(I don’t know where this field is since I haven’t seen it ever). It is sort of evening like it had rained and there are grey clouds as if it’s going to rain again. The field is totally cover with dense fog yet one can make sense of figures standing in distance. I felt lost and when I tried reaching to the figures standing in the distance to ask where we are I realised that the people standing are my family members, friends and acquaintances. Everyone is standing from one another at a distance and is oblivious to other persons presence in the same field. Some are in a group of three or two and some are standing alone and crying. When I went near them to talk to them and ask them about why they are crying they can’t hear me or see me. I try to touch them but they can’t feel my touch or presence at all. I screamed and cried but they couldn’t hear at all. I woke up terrified from this dream in the middle of the night (might be around 2:30) I was so horrified as if I had just died and came back to life. I had the same dream again last night. I am terrified and can’t sleep. I am unable to understand what could have caused a dream like this and what would it mean. Please tell me what does it mean and what can I do to solve if it’s a problem of some sort so I can sleep peacefully.
Dear S.G.
The problem in the dream is that you would like to get closer to your family members and others, but there is no response from them as if they cannot hear or see you and then you are horrified and cannot sleep because it recurs. To be able to connect to people so that you are close to them, what you need to learn how to do and what the dream is asking of you is to focus only on their positive energy, not their negative. The fog may be your tendency to see negative things in others instead of positive. All close relationships between all human beings are fundamentally those where people see the best in each other and support each other to draw even more positive out. Be clear (rather than foggy or cloudy) about seeing the positive in others and acknowledging it out loud to them, and then you will be at peace and be able to sleep. Even if it seems uncomfortable, do it anyway.
What does it mean to see a persons name in your dream? I started sleeping with a close friend of mine in real life. I feel like we have a deep connection but, of course, it’s a total disaster lol. But I haven’t spoken to him in a little over a month but I had a dream where I read his name clear as day. I think I saw it on my phone as if he was calling me. But I keep seeing it clear as day. Usually I don’t play into dreams like this while I have a love interest, but I can’t ever remember seeing words in my dreams
Dear Celia,
So in real life if you started sleeping with a close friend, it means that have an attraction to the person and you want to become even more intimate. That it is a disaster and you haven’t talked in a month means that you want to hear or see his name, but there are a lot of unresolved issues that cause the relationship not to work. You don’t have to worry about losing attraction. It is usually the first one on the scene in a new relationship. What you should be concerned about are the disastrous elements. If you can work on them or work them out, then the relationship can work, but it usually takes the two of you working on them together to have success.
Going to be with someone too soon is usually a recipe for disaster. I always like to see couples working on a project together or doing challenging service together. That is when you see another person’s character.
Richard I have been having vivid dreams per usual and ignoring the feeling to look deeper into them from being ‘too busy’. Last night though I had the oddest dream and I am so curious as to the symbolic message.
Last night (Aug 14) I had a dream that I was still married to my first husband (in waking life he dies on Aug 14 2018!! — wow I’m in a little shock that the dream was the EXACT day of his death). Anyways in the dream we were still married and we had our daughter (that we have in waking life). Also note in waking life while we were married he was abusive and was one of the many reasons I divorced and left.
There was this house and it had been abandoned. In this dream I was connected to this house, as if it was where I lived with this husband; but in waking life it does not ring a bell. Well there was books in there that were secret knowledge – like holistic healing, secret methods to ascension, ect- I went into the house to destroy the books but then I decided against it and was going to keep them. they were all in a trash bag. The house was on water – it felt like a lake – then the house caught fire and it was burning so fast. I tried to grab the bag of books and run to the back dock but the house burned right up and I fell into the water.
Also in the dream he was still abusive. I did not see him actually abusing BUT i knew in the dream it was happening and I was scared so I took my daughter – she was a little younger than she currently is in waking life – and we ran! We were in a big city that I do not recognize in waking life and he was coming after us and every time we would hide he would find us and we would run somewhere else. We found a place with security where the door was locked heavily from the inside so we hid here. This was a small room with a twin bed and cleaning supplies and no bathroom. When we felt safe we left and again over and over he would find us and we would run. He would also be yelling at me, but i dont recall any of the things.
We made it back to that safe room and we had apparently pooped in the bucket the first time because when we went back the bucket had poop in it and we had to go again. The door was locked and the security lady and others were in there with us. There was a knock at the door and it was a voice of a male security officer so the female officer opened the door and with him was my husband and he was mad. My heart was racing so fast that it woke me up. I tried to go back to sleep to see what happened next knowing it was only a dream, but I couldn’t get back into that dream.
A few notes for waking life – i know some bits I have told you before but I will mention again as they pertain to this husband. First, I have dreamed of him a handful of times since his death and in all my dreams but one he was upset/angry with me and yelling and scaring me. We were married young and high school sweethearts who grew up together. When I left him in 2010ish he kept minimal contact with our daughter for a year. After that he never reached out to talk to her or see her – 7 years passed and when our daughter was 9 he died. She knows so little about him because he was so absent from her life. His temperament was generally pleasant, but when he would drink or do drugs he would become very angry — and he was typically drinking or high on drugs making him angry and mean (to me) much of the time. People will say he was a good person or friend and to them he very well could have been but as a husband and father he was not very great.
Dear C,
The house in the dream that burned down represents the you who was married and abused by him. So it has the aspect of fear of being abused, but it also has a more holistic healing side of you that you are trying to keep. You cannot let go of the fear completely even though you have been out of the relationship for 13 years because you do not want to lose the holistic healing side, but it burns anyway and then the rest of the dream is about trying to get away from him and keep your daughter safe.
You can let go of the fear of being abused again, the memories connected to the abuse, and focus on the holistic healing, by realizing that the two are totally unconnected. Healing methods are for benefiting others and helping you and others to have a better life, but your mind has abuse and healing together in the same place, in the same “house”.
Try doing something like this. Take a piece of letter-sized paper, fold it in half, then lay it on the desk, landscape orientation. On the right side write the abilities you have that are more healing or intuitive in nature even how your relational abilities help others. On the left side write what it was like living in an abusive relationship including the pain and suffering. You can even draw images of what each side is like metaphorically. Then cut the paper down the middle so that the two selves are separated. Take a match and burn the left side. Keep reading the right side to yourself everyday and adding to it. Remind yourself each day that you are safe as long as you are your true self. Danger comes when you are ruled by fear.
Hope this helps.
Last night I had a dream where one of my teeth had the start of a cavity and as I looked all around the tooth there were about 15-20 little spots where a cavity was starting all in the same single tooth. I was looking around it like it was out of my mouth so I could see it all, but it was securely in my mouth.
I just remembered a second part of the dream – not sure if it was before or after the above. But I cut my own hair off in the dream. In waking life my hair is 7-10inches past my shoulders, so kind of long. In the dream it was this current length and I dont recall why but I grabbed kitchen scissors and cut it like just below my ear, but above my chin and one side was longer than the other and it was a natural blonde color (in waking life my natural hair is brown and I dont color it at all). I hated the hair cut and got upset about it.
Dear C,
First of all when you have a cavity of a tooth in your dream it means that you have “holes” in your thinking and decision making process. Teeth are what are needed to chew on ideas so that you can digest ideas and make good decisions. Cutting your hair means that you are cutting off your power or empowerment. What you can do with this dream is ask yourself how your thinking process goes awry and how do you give up your empowerment? Usually is has to do for the sake of not being displeasing to others. To maintain your thinking process and power you have to be willing to be displeasing to others at times for the sake of longer term positive goals and ideals.
Hi Chris,
I hope that you are well. I’ve been recently having new dreams and more unusual than ever before. In my latest dream I had pierced my skin with sewing pins,it wasn’t painful and I did it because in my dream I noticed a separation line forming on my left forearm, it looked like I could peel it away despite it looking healthy. Piercing the skin wasn’t painful and every now and then I would check that it’s okay, after a while it looked like the sewing pins were disappearing into my skin. I had a thought rise up that the way my skin was behaving as a rolled out sweet pastry, delicate and soft and adaptable in the way it was reacting and absorbing the sewing pins. I then woke up very puzzled, it wasn’t a disturbing but an intriguing dream for me. I would greatly appreciate your insight on figuring out it’s meaning.
Mishel
Richard* apologies for the confusion
Dear Mishel,
Skin serves as a protective function in the body for what lays inside. You can think of this dream as saying that flexibility or being pliable is a way of protecting your inner self. Too much rigidity can cause a lot of pain and leave you in a negative emotional state. When you are flexible, you don’t break, but you can also deal with really difficult situations in life where people are not so positive that are around you.
well, Richard. here is what be the next to the last post of this,one of the most lucid dreams i ever had ,along with being one of the most remarkable. i should have it posted by the end of the week. you are absolutely right about it being about positive energy overcoming the negative. this started out as a battle and ended almost as a carnival. do you know of any more drastic transformation than that?
as i walked over what had just been a fierce battleground, i saw unforgettable sights,but not unforgettable in the same way battlefield sights usually are. everywhere our recent enemies were getting up,and they seemed in better spirits and in greater health than before(whereas at Antietam,Gettysburg or Lundy’s lane i think i am safe in asserting that they were not) just an hour before they were deadly enemies, now it was almost as though they were just meeting long lost friends. i was not alone in my surprise. some of the enemy who had not been hit by beams were gazing in open mouthed astonishment. one of them said “That Dr Isiah of yours sure has one heck of a mind altering weapon” i agreed. walking across the field who should i come across but C- who had gone on a scouting mission on his own and been captured. ME:well C- you seem remarkably healthy for having gone through what you did. C: yes,i sure am.i had a birds eye view of the battle ME;we were afraid you were dead or permanently injured C: nah, they didn’t kill me just took me prisoner ME: what was that incredible thing he used C: i don’t know how it works myself but as soon as he got me back to their camp he let me go.just told me i was a prisoner and as long as i behaved myself i should be all right ME: that’s surprising. somehow i thought you would get rough treatment C: so did i but one of their captains happened to be present and told me i was a POW for the duration of the fight and left two men to guard me. treated me all right.even got me something to eat. C: well well,so they are not all bad after all. C:nope.not those fellows anyway A NEW VOICE: there are some of us bad and some of us good. i am somewhere in between. even before i turned around i recognized the voice. none other than the obstructionist who had brought C in and held the amazing lasso. ME:well,hello again. i hardly thought to make your acquaintance once more.i see you seem to have done very well for yourself EX-OBSTRUCTIONIST: that comes from looking out for number one. i sure was not in that field getting zapped like those fanatic blockheads ME:a very developed sense of self-preservation EXO: you got that one right,mister . ME: i could not help noticing your remarkable lasso. i have never seen anything like that before EXO: darn right you haven’t. its practically the only one of its kind in the world ME: could you tell me how it works? EXO: i could but you wouldn’t understand. it works differently from anything here [continued]
Hi James. Sorry for the long delay. I have been traveling and only getting to this now. Basically what I get out of the experience is that you needed to learn to have courage to face your life battles against both inward and outward enemies, that you have inner leadership represented by Dr. Isiah, which is really you but you haven’t full incorporated yet. The result of having courage to face your life battles makes the world and everyone a more friendly and beautiful space with everyone having special gives like how Exo can lasso like lassoing people in a positive way to good ideas. If you frame everything as positive you are going to get a lot of positive results.
Richard, you are correct about in your analysis,as usual . i still have not decided whether Dr Isiah is a spirit guide or a part of me yet unexplored.or maybe both. about the healing you are absolutely right. but this dream has a trick ending,which at first glance may seem to be unrelated,i have not decided whether or not i will include or just let the dream stand where it is. this final part is,if anything,even more puzzling than the first part. but it would reveal a lot of my subconscious . if i decide to continue with it it should be posted in the next week sometime. as always, you get down to the deeper meaning of things
Dear James,
Whether you choose to have Dr. Isiah as a spirit guide or a representation of your inner self does not make a huge difference. He represents the larger spiritual energy that can guide you successfully in your life. You should feel free to use it as it will be extremely useful for you.
I keep dreaming about a dybbuk box even though I’ve never actually seen one in person and there is an item in the box that I can’t ever seem to actually see. What does this mean?
Dear Chris,
A dyybuk is a box where you store things. In this case you are storing negative memories in the box that you cannot let go of. When you store negative memories without letting the energy go, it tends to create negative in your life. If you can identify the negative memories and then free yourself of them, you will find that you feel much lighter and freer to get to where you are going in your life.
