      From: dicksilk@gmail.com              2020/05/14 Thursday:              Starting with the speedboat: the dreamer was zipping across water, much as a       ski-boat would zoom across a lake. However, the dreamer was NOT "behind the       wheel" so much physically as it seemed more just like the *perspective* was       zipping along *as* a        speedboat. The camera perspective was rather similar to that of a high-speed       drone camera, but closer to that of a person peering over the bow at the water       before the bow was being sped over. (Maybe it was a HYDROFOIL?!?) What made       this dream *slightly*        disturbing was the presence of the heads of people IN the water. The BODY       (astral vehicle, if you will) of the dreamer felt like that of a boat's hull,       only it wasn't a lengthy hull of 16' or so: it felt more like the shape of a       human body, but was        slicing THROUGH the water just like that of a decent ski boat. A head (in the       water) was struck, which gave the dreamer a twinge of "Ugh!"— kind of a mix       between, "Let's try to avoid doing THAT again!" although there was what felt       like a second head        struck almost directly after the first. I'm unsure whether there was a third       head struck or not, but by this time the dreamer was thinking more along the       lines of a cross between "they were the ones who put themselves in the water"       and "steering/travel        needs to adjust to avoid hitting any more heads" so the dreamer "canted"       (tilted) 45° to the left (from straight up) so that if anymore heads (bodies?       humans?) were encountered, the BODY of the vehicle was to the right, giving       the dreamer's "head" /        camera perspective a good foot or more above the surface of the water. In       other words, if any more heads were to occur in the path, by making sure they       were *beneath* the camera perspective, they would clear without being struck.        An *overall* clarity        of perhaps 8, but the speeding over water was closer to 9.              Now, I know this is a *BIG* stretch regarding interpretation, but it puts me       in mind of the issue I'm having with getting a book through a publishing house       so that it clears the "content evaluation" criteria. The people at Author       House allowed *EVERY*        opinion regarding the deception of the Pope and every fallacy of the Catholic       Church and error regarding the theology of Luther (and the Lutheran Church) to       pass *without* comment! But the MOMENT something was said about the religion       of Islam, *pow!*        the censors objected to "hate speech". WHAT a LOAD of COWARDS and       HYPOCRITES?!? Why does this relate to the perspective of a speeding boat       through a lake / over water? It seems to feel as if the progress of the book       itself was working its way through        obstacles (minds?) in the water. So *either* the censorship at Author House       is going to have to recognize its own hypocrisy / come around to a correct way       of thinking / free itself of dhimmitude from Islam, OR a more "fit" publisher       will need to be        found.              Meanwhile, there was the dream of a BIG house under construction. The dreamer       was going through the framework of the house, although the garage seemed to be       near completion. But this "garage" was HUGE, as if the size of a medium-sized       warehouse. It        even had "levels" to it, such that a kind of 2nd level began at 1 full floor       off the ground, with cupboards along the walls, presumably for storage, along       with a hall-like area that could have served as a work level, such that       anything on this level        would be contained in such a way as to keep the lower level clear of falling       (stray) objects. The "garage" of this house was so impressive / memorable       that the *rest* of the details of the house simply fade from recall. However,       it seemed more along        the lines of an estate along the size of what one sometimes sees in movies /       TV shows depicting a manor of the ultra-wealthy / über-rich. Clarity 7 or 8,       as whatever this place was seemed like it was under construction.              A more down-to-Earth type dream involved a critter seeming much like a breed       of dog, similar to a Lhasa Apso or Shih Tzu, yet with a poodle-like coat. (A       "Shih Tzudle?" There seemed to be some mild consternation about a house-pet       being outside along a        city street, although the camera perspective seemed to be that of a human,       taking care that the critter was allowed *some* freedom to roam, yet kept safe       from accidental harm as much as possible. Clarity 7, verging on 6 due to the       sense of chaos /        confusion / consternation regarding the critter's safety.              There was a dream *similar* to that of the Shih Tzoodle, only instead of a       dog-like critter, it was with respect to a white glob-like organism, something       that's hard to even qualify as a "critter." It was more like a lab specimen       that was on the *verge*        of being declared sentient. There was *concern* over the glob's well-being,       similar to that of the housewife that prefers to release spiders and flies       outside the kitchen window rather than swat them dead.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
