   Got a bit of catching up to do.  I began this yesterday (Friday, 10/30) and   
   only managed to outline 3 topics before I was distracted and never got back to   
   them, but here they are and hear I go (on Saturday morning):   
      
   Sunlight streak:  Not too long ago (maybe a week or two?) I had a dream about   
   relaxing in a boat on the lake as that boat drifted about in a c   
   unter-clockwise fashion, which caused a very bright image of the sun to arc   
   across the dreamer's field of view.    
    In that dream, the sun was rather large, as if seen from the orbit of perhaps   
   Venus rather than Earth.  In this recent dream, the SECOND dream of "direct"   
   sunlight I've had not only in one month, but possibly EVER (the two together   
   seem a unique pair so    
   far) there was a streak as if it were the sun moving across the field of view,   
   from left to right, although the dreamer seemed a bit more stationary.  I'm   
   wondering if this might be symbolic of the entire nation voting for Trump?   
   (The Light headed RIGHT.)   
     The light's trace was a bit narrower, as if seen from the orbit of Earth   
   rather than Venus.  Keep in mind that the apparent visual diameter of the sun   
   in the sky is the same as that of the moon (that's why we can have a complete,   
   solar eclipse on rare    
   occasions.)  No other thoughts were detected during the dream other than "That   
   was *BRIGHT!*"   
     The speed at which the light moved was noticed, of course, but there was no   
   commentary other than a note regarding the speed of that transition.   
      
      
   Barns as houses (?):  The dreamer was in a backyard type setting, getting a   
   good look around at the neighbors' barns (I believe 2 or 3 were visible.)    
   They appeared somewhat of a rustic bluish / grayish / brownish / reddish   
   color.  The construction    
   reminded the dreamer of 5/8"ths sheet plywood over perhaps a wooden structure   
   similar to standard 2x4 framing.  They seemed set in a more URBAN than rural   
   setting, similar to properties in larger, open neighborhoods that have perhaps   
   half an acre (give    
   or take) per lot.  I can't recall what any of the conversation was about,   
   however, if this was about the heartland of America that formerly voted   
   democrat and are now voting en masse for GOP candidates, that would explain   
   the coloration of the barns, and    
   the apparent mix of rural / urban setting.   
      
   Skeltal decorations:  Can't recall too much of this one, other than perhaps it   
   was of a Hallowe'en motif (I'm certainly HOPING it was due to the seasonal   
   decorations!) but:  The dreamer noticed at least one female wearing a black   
   costume, more of a PG    
   type rating, nothing really provocative that was memorable, but it seemed a   
   bit of a blend between classic witch and dominatrix, and the material seemed a   
   bit like black cotton but in places appeared more like black leather.  I also   
   suspect she was in    
   one of those black head covers but the mouth / nose area was UNcovered (hence   
   the hint of dominatrix.)  This was not, however, the most memorable aspect of   
   the dream.  The dreamer seemed to be flowing along a corridor (possibly in the   
   manner of one of    
   those drive-through haunted houses) but with an open feel, as if NOT in a   
   vehicle, and NOT *on* a vehicle, but flowing nonetheless.  (When one meanders   
   along a queue in real life, that MIGHT explain the sense of *flow* within a   
   dream.)  What caught the    
   dreamer's attention were two sequential encounters with lower skeletal   
   structures, as if the spine of a skeleton had been snapped about halfway up   
   and the upper half removed, leaving only the lower section remaining, still   
   upright, possibly held in place    
   by use of a (black or hidden) post behind it.  Although visually gruesome, the   
   dreamer seemed to process it well without TOO much of a shock/horror-type   
   revulsion.

   "Discussion before waking":  This morning, I was in bed, going over some   
   subject in the dream state with someone else.  It is now 10:43, and a lot has   
   transpired already (as I have to help my mother get her breakfast since her   
   right hip injury, possibly    
   a fracture, last Sunday afternoon.  Fortunately, we got a Hoveround delivered   
   the day before! So it's 1 week "old" today :-) ) Due to this time gap,   
   whatever was being discussed has evaporated, but at the time of waking, *I*   
   was rather amazed at just how    
   clearly I could recall the conversation!  (Shoulda taken more mental notes to   
   keep it fresh / written it down, but I was simply too busy.)   
      
   A thousand points of light:  This was simply a visual image, lasting a good   
   second or so, of a dark (but clear) background with thousands of points of   
   light throughout the entire space (foreground) not unlike the effect one would   
   have of thousands of    
   fish eggs floating in the sea or ocean.  These points of light WERE flowing in   
   a particular direction, but either they were coming towards me (peacefully) or   
   headed upward, or *possibly* outward from me, hard to say as I simply can't   
   remember.  I know    
   that they were NOT headed in a downward direction, and NOT sitting still, nor   
   were they headed left or right.  So either toward or away (they were all of   
   the same direction, I simply can't recall which at this point after waking)   
   and either at the level    
   at which they were (it was a view filled with points from the top of the view   
   to the bottom, and from side to side) or upward.  I might consider this "A   
   Precursor of the Great Awakening" that is starting / increasing in America   
   today.
