   dreamer's (literal) point-   
   of-view, at which point the idea of decomp and the various processes of decay   
   arose in the dreamer's mind. I suspect this was likely one of those "mind your   
   thoughts!" type exercises, because at that moment, thousands (*well* over the   
   limit of merely "   
   hundreds") of black scarab beetles began erupting from the corpse. The   
   dreamer, although not "panicked" or "horrified" by this, was certainly   
   "anxious" that whomever that female was standing on the *other* side of the   
   corpse (sort of like a "mirror image"   
   ) kept her feet back! The dreamer was scooting (his) feet back when the dream   
   ended. Clarity: morbid. :-)

   school auditorium, rather than    
   the softly lit seating area of a mega-church. There were a few kids, roughly   
   around six to eight years old, and I have the impression that one of the girls   
   gave me (the dreamer) something, but I apologize for having lost a good deal   
   of this due to    
   evaporation.

   from right to left, only it wasn't columnar (like if tossed from a cup) but   
   more sheet-like, as if wind    
   had pushed / carried an upward splash of water forwards rather than the   
   gravity effect of simply going up and coming down. I try to avoid placing   
   religious-type labels on things, but "the Holy Spirit" certainly seems to   
   enter my mind as a reference. The    
   background / scene was all dark, with the white-light-sheet of water in lit   
   contrast. This sheet of water was "thinner" toward the center and "thicker"   
   around the circumference. It wasn't "brighter" but "thicker," and as it   
   appeared as a form of light,    
   the edges certainly seemed more noticeable.

   there, somewhere, but I just can't "see" it in any way— it's not "coming to   
   mind."

   Hello Dick,   
           Was wondering if the scarab beetles were the kind they have in Egypt.   
   Would that make a difference in this dream?
