      From: dicksilk@gmail.com              Dogs along street       Chest floating?       Following a driver.       Bejeweled cylinder cup on chain+...       Drilling a bolt / vision of “family” of/in light.              Dogs along street: The dreamer was bicycling along a sidewalk when two small       dogs (bigger than Chihuahuas, about the size of “ragamuffins”) leashed       together as if with a strand of wire rope (maybe ¼” in diameter) roughly       2’–3’ in length,        and they began running along with the dreamer/cyclist as if that was their       routine, running 2’ or so ahead of the cyclist, to the right, as if they ran       beside each other like this often, even though there were different breeds       (possibly mutts) and        likely had different natural speeds, yet ran together as if they were a pack       (after all, they *were* wired together.) The dreamer/cyclist began to wonder       if they were going to continue to run alongside indefinitely, which raised a       question regarding “       leash laws” and the like, along with the possibility of their risk of injury       such as around vehicular traffic. To answer this questionable safety issue,       the cyclist came upon a *wall* (roughly 3’ high) at the end of a sidewalk,        such that all the        houses along the street (it seemed like a city street, not unlike the kind       with New York brownstones) which gave the dreamer the insight that, [Ah! Any       pet owner could let their animal(s) out to run along the sidewalk (and narrow       strip of grass between        the buildings and the sidewalk, possibly between the sidewalk and the curb       wall) (and possibly their children, now that I’m typing this up) giving them       a safety zone wherein they would be unable to simply run into the street.        Larger animals would, of        course, need to be trained to NOT jump the wall, but chances are, not too many       people would have a large dog cooped up in a city street environment (unless       they were morons.) At any rate, the dreamer was somehow crossing this       end-of-sidewalk wall (       possibly a gate) where the longer wall (along the street) made a right angle       (to the right) so as to end-cap the sidewalk area / pet zone, when the dream       ended. Clarity 9.              Chest floating? There was a scene wherein the dreamer seemed to be floating       upon his/her chest / sternum, which is a common “floating/flying” type       dream, although the destination was unspecific *other* than the thought that       finding Gina was on the        agenda, somehow. The idea was also noted (possibly in *another* dream) that       learning how to “land” in flying dreams has always been something of a       challenge / issue. Clarity 6+ / 8- (the 7 zone is for symbolic dreams.)        There were practically zero        details in the scene *other* than the dreamer’s awareness of the condition       of “chest floating,” which *nearly* prompted a state of lucidity within       the dream, but apparently stayed in the “sleeping” / subconscious zone.              Following a driver: The dreamer seemed to be in communication with another       person at an unseen location, having something to do with tailing a suspect in       yet another vehicle (so there were 3 perspectives involved.) The       communication was with respect to        the dreamer having lost visual contact, thus communicating with the other       individual, with the dreamer feeling more “male” and the tag-team member       feeling “female,” and the quarry under surveillance having a definite       “male” vibe to him.        Aside from there being little memorable, quotable dialogue, and the purpose of       the surveillance may only be assumed, it had a fairly decent [clarity 8+] to       it.              Bejeweled cylinder cup on chain+: The dreamer was aware of having a small,       round cylinder type object in his possession, perhaps 2” in diameter, 1½”       tall, with a flat top & bottom, similar to what might be referred to as a tiny       “hat box” or “       snuff box” even though it was cylindrical in shape. It was, in fact, a       “ring box” as it had some type of rather valuable, bejeweled ring inside,       such as a lady’s silver cocktail ring OR possibly some type of       engagement/wedding ring. The gem may        have been an emerald (green). In recounting this dream, there were two colors       involved, namely green and blue, so I’m recording this in the way I think it       *should* have been.              There was a female presence that came up alongside the dreamer, walking to his       left and slightly behind, with a *hollow* bejeweled, cylindrical box, with a       “blue” sense to it, such as sapphire. The (empty) cylindrical box was       presented so that the        dreamer was holding / examining it, and the logical thing to do was to mention       that the emerald ring-box would “fit” perfectly within the sapphire hollow       box, although there was a *distinct* warning voice in the dreamer’s head       that sounded like a        very sincere yet dire admonition from myself to myself, “do NOT put it in       there—” although the dreamer self heard this, he could not resist       “checking” the situation, and sure enough, he put the emerald cylinder       inside the sapphire cylinder, but        then realized the green inner box was somehow NOT a match to the blue, outer       box and promptly removed the inner box and continued along his way. The       female seemed slightly less-energized at the dreamer’s action / consequence       as the dream ended.              NOTE: I *suspect* this is in some way an allegory of my past relationship       with Helen (who had blue eyes, and birthed my first son, Charles) even though       I always kept my heart (and mind) set on Gina (who has hazel-green eyes.)        That gives this dream a        sort of “dual clarity” rating of 7 (symbolic) / 9- (the dreamer could have       taken a better survey of the contents of the two boxes and possibly even       *looked* at the female, but didn’t.) There was also a matter of one or       possibly two LEDs (light        emitting diodes) one blue, one green, each color associated with each of the       two cylinders. As I record this, it occurs to me that the idea of a green LED       inside a box with a blue LED is what may have triggered the dreamer to remove       the green ring-box        from the blue container.                     [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
