      From: dicksilk@gmail.com              2020/07/25 Saturday: Happy 59th! √              So I woke up this morning and made a kind of "grab" to try and remember the       dreams I had, and shortly after, they started to resurface.              car key(s) / house key (duplex??) / lunch ?? / objective to drive somewhere /       sand storm? / Strange groping scene / final phrase (before waking)              In this first dream, the dreamer had been "shorted" one car key fob, the kind       of key that one has to get from the dealership to get all the bells and       whistles that go with the key fob (car alarm, lock/unlock, etc.) While the       dreamer *did* get the 2nd        fob (apparently it wasn't present during the original purchase but had been       included as part of the deal) there was *another separate* dream about       returning to the dealer to get a kind of magnetic key hiding box (slightly       larger than the thin, common        type you can buy practically anywhere.) This box was of an aesthetic design       that could hold one of these more modern keys. The problem was that an       associate at the dealership handed the dreamer a rather crude version of one       of these boxes, as if all        the plastic, outer design coverings had been removed, and the only left was       the bare (uglier) container, even though it did have an active, slide-top       cover that latched shut. The dreamer sorta stood there with an expression       (feeling) of "Are you serious?        What is this [crap]?" (Though nothing was recalled being actually spoken.)        The dealer made one of those "Oops, sorry, let me swap that out for you" type       gestures (again, no actual dialogue was detected, but the action proceeded as       if there were        dialogue.) The dreamer got a "new" container (apparently these two scenes       were connected. They certainly *write* as if they were!) and the dream ended,       clarity 8+, maybe even 9-.              This other dream was related in that it also involved a door / lock component,       but it was the dreamer approaching the back door of a duplex (a home with two       sides, typically a rental property) in what might be called after sunset /       darkening dusk (the        exterior of the scene was NOT well lit!) The house was reminiscent of the       duplex from next door (like 1107 Scottland, the southern unit.) The dreamer       had a sense that this wasn't his home, although there was a feeling as if it       *once* was his home in the        past, but felt curious enough to see what might happen next. There was a       feeling *as if* he still had a key that actually fit that back door and tried       it, and the door opened, revealing a more brightly (well-lit) kitchen / rear       entrance area. There was        a feeling *as if* no one were home, and the dreamer felt *very* out of place       there, as the dream ended. Definitely a borderline 8 to 9 clarity.              This next scene is a bit fractured, in that it's not nearly as clear as the       other two, and seems to be in more than one section, but I'll write it up as       one: The nearly evaporated portion dealt with the acquisition of food, as if       a major dish /        casserole had been put together into one container and put somewhere, as if to       store for later usage. The part of the dream that is *certainly* more       memorable is when the dreamer comes into a spacious kitchen / break area to       find someone (a female        presence is felt) upset at having found the food, and it's been "dismantled"       into all its constituent parts, like shredded meat (turkey?) on this plate,       other components on other plates, and even what looked like the aluminum ring       of a stove burner (just        the ring, without the inner bowl that connects to some rings as a one-piece.)       The dreamer gives an apology but explains its his lunch, that he was going to       eat later, and gets right to the action of preparing to eat it when the dream       ends.              Objective to drive somewhere is *really* kinda broken up, but here goes: the       dreamer has a feeling of being a teen old enough to drive but still in high       school. There's a feeling of trying to drive in such a way as to reach a       northern destination (same        city, perhaps? county? at least in the same state, such as Murfreesboro to       Nashville, but feels more like Oakland to McGavock (schools) or simply trying       to get to a darker or night-time version of Oakland. There is a sense of       arriving at the OHS        destination but needing to go elsewhere for some other purpose. This entire       dream seemed "purpose-driven" but what that purpose was never seems to have       been stated explicitly. Clarity 6, at best, closer to 5.              The sandstorm was a *weird* scene: the dreamer begins by noticing a rather       *heavy* presence of sand in the air, looking out across the back field, as one       may occasionally look across a field and detect a drizzling rainfall, only       this was sand particles.         The sky was a beautiful, crimson sunset red (with perhaps a touch of yellow &       orange, but not so much as to be noticeable) but all over, not just on the       western horizon, and the dust / sand was visible everywhere. This was not so       dense as to be        considered a "driving" sandstorm, but *definitely* thick, almost like that of       a bug-hatch (if you've ever had the misfortune to be out on the lake IRL in an       open boat during one of those events...!) In this atmospheric sand-scene, the       dreamer seems        concerned about any effect of having to go out or get caught in the sand, but       notes that his lungs feel relatively "clear" and detects no breathing       impairment of any kind, but as this self-detection bit is going on, the sand       in the air THICKENS to the        point that some of it looks like slowly blowing LARGE flakes of snow, the kind       one might see (IRL) on rare occasion when the snow is drifting down lazily       rather than in a driving snowstorm. The interesting thing about this sand /       sand-flake dream scene        is that the particulates are blowing westward, again, not hard, but more at a       walking pace, which is horizontal (even with the surface of the Earth) rather       than vertical (which would indicate gravity.) Although the clarity of the       dream was an *good* 9 (!       ) the lack of any gravitational effect upon the sand gives it more of a       "symbolic" quality, so what that symbolism might be was never expressed during       the dream scene, although one might hazard a guess that the "political left"       is blowing *slightly to        the right" toward "center." ***If*** this is the case, then Trump will win in       a HUGE landslide victory later this year.                     [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
