      From: dicksilk@gmail.com              11:51 6/20/2021       Sure, I had a LOT of dreams last night / this morning, but one of the last       before waking caught my attention to the point of forgetting all those that       went along with it (aka "evaporation.")              The dreamer was standing in the backyard / gravel driveway area of where I       used to live in years past at 3050 Asbury Lane, looking upward at the sky,       watching two birds (one possibly an eagle, the other possibly a falcon)       "escorting" a cat through the        sky, as if from Nashville to North Alabama (from NW toward S.) Sure, I've       heard of birds of prey carrying small animals away for food or possibly away       from their nests, but there was perhaps one hand-off from the larger bird to       the smaller bird,        although it was as if there were no actual "talons" in use, as if the cat were       being carried along as if within the field between their talons, sort of like       this ( x ) and while I (the dreamer) had some *definite* concern for the cat,       there was a sense        of "life will take its course" to the scene. And even so, I (the dreamer)       felt compelled to CALL to the cat, saying "Here, kitty-kitty-kit       y-kitty-kitty" similar to how I used to call my cat(s) in younger years. AT       THIS POINT, the cat turned [her?] (       possibly of a darker, calico coloration) head / face (over [her] left       shoulder) and LOOKED at me (as cats sometimes do, with an inscrutable manner)       although the cat's inertia seemed to keep [her] body moving in a southerly       direction. At this point, I        saw the cat alone going through the sky, wondering where the birds had gone,       but more importantly, considering that the cat would eventually "come to land"       / fall to earth although, for whatever reason, I (the dreamer) was aware that       *even from TALL        buildings* such as apartment balconies, cats tend to "land on their feet"       without harm (due to a sort of "balance" between light weight, wind resistance       in their fur, their slower "terminal velocity," and the strength and       conditioning of the muscular-       skeletal structures in their legs which act like "purrfect shock absorbers.")        I certainly had a desire for the cat to come over and exchange some affection,       but the dream ended. Clarity 10-, but only because there was clearly some       symbolism involved.              After waking, it "dawned" upon me that the cat MAY have represented Gina, and       the two birds (the "eagle" and the "falcon") MAY have represented air       transports such as jets (a larger model and a smaller model) and the direction       MAY have represented her        travel *from* Toronto *to* the Nashville airport (BNA) (via the larger "bird")       then *to* the North Alabama airport (possibly FBO, possibly Ardmore) (via the       smaller "bird") *POSSIBLY* in conjunction with her 40th class reunion for       GCHS. Regardless, I        need to do some "research" after posting this.              12:13 6/20/2021              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
