      From: dicksilk@gmail.com              The other day, I wrote down a few tiny scribbles on some dreams I'd had that       morning. Today, I found them (on a discarded newspaper) and read something       about a line of people, a pillow, and looking for a house with WiFi.        (Possibly something having to        do with Putin's personal war against Ukraine?)              Meanwhile, LAST night / this morning, I had TWO rather unusual dreams with a       bit more "staying power," lasting THROUGH the "evaporation" phase of waking       up, doing things, and finally settling down to journal the content—              The first dream involved the dreamer viewing a red, single engine airplane       (overhead, fixed wing) with the landing wheels in the *down* (landing)       position, although the plane itself was flying *rather* slowly, as if at FULL       flaps into a STRONG headwind,        although there was no wind detected within the dream.              The plane was flying north to south in the field that (IRL) is to the north of       / behind the Reeves-Rogers school building on Greenland Drive in Murfreesboro,       TN.              Now, sure, sometimes the objects in dreams are simply "symbolic" of things in       real life. For instance, this COULD be related to aircraft in Ukraine, but       that's a *bit* of a symbolic stretch. As far as I (the dreamer) was       concerned, it was simply        unusual to see a plane that low and slow in that field, *especially* since       99.999% of the air traffic in this particular area is "on approach" to (or       taking off from) the Murfreesboro Airport a few miles to the north (IRL.)        (Planes are on a landing        approach over the field, and on a take-off course southwest of the field.)        There *have* been (IRL) some planes spotted *on rare occasion* doing pilot       training maneuvers, such as instrument practice as well as engine / prop       feathering, so as to "glide"        with the engine at (or near) idle and the propellers feathered at (nearly) 0°       "bite" so that they spin without creating thrust or drag with respect to any       oncoming wind.              Once upon a time, IRL, I asked a pilot to circle over the field so I could get       a picture or two, and he radioed the tower to let them know we'd be circling       in this particular area.              BUT IN THE DREAM, this red plane was simply approaching the north (back) side       of the school building, which had an ARCHED / sloped roof (like a house)       RATHER than the FLAT roof of the building IRL.              As the plane approached the roof, it slowed *even further* as if doing a type       of "touch and go" procedure NORMALLY practiced on an airport runway, in order       to practice landings and take-offs in a time and cost efficient fashion.       It is unclear (not perfectly remembered) as to whether or not the dream       plane's wheels actually touched the roof or not, but the flight pattern       followed an upward angle of the sloped / arched roof *as if* the dream pilot       had actually touched (or barely        grazed) the shingles of the roof. (IRL, Reeves Rogers has NO shingles to the       best of my knowledge!)              This was followed by a scene wherein the dreamer seemed to be having a word of       concern with the pilot regarding pulling such a dangerous stunt (even IF only       practicing!) in conjunction with a school building. What happened next was a       bit unexpected:              A little Nazi storm trooper uniformed guy (similar to the character portrayed       by Henry Gibson in the 1960s variety show, "Laugh-In," as well as the original       "Blues Brothers" movie with Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi) came up from an       easterly direction, AS        IF he had come up the driveway of my father's house on Scottland Drive, and       appeared to have some type of fascist perspective he was attempting to invoke       with the dreamer, still standing out in the middle of the field. As the       dreamer was facing south,        the little (as in "short of stature") Nazi dream character was approaching       from the dreamer's left (no surprise there!)              The dreamer simply "exited [ended] the dream" rather than get into an argument       with him. Clarity anywhere from 7 to 9+ (as it did appear to be a well-lit       setting.)              The next dream / vision / scenario is a bit more difficult to describe:              The dreamer was in a conversation with a devil-looking entity: Imagine the       Satan character portrayed in the South Park cartoons, only in basic black with       a *very* thin, vague, whitish outline (outlined in thin contrasts of light.)              The relative image size of the dream character seemed also to be about human       sized as if standing apart, at a distance of around 20' or so, *roughly*       "across the living room" or perhaps at the other side of a conference room.       There wasn't anything "terrifying" or "terrorizing" about the scene, only that       the entity *did* appear devil-like.       I have a *sneaking* hunch this *may* be in regards to an ongoing, online       discussion I've been having with someone of "unspecified" (if not *highly*       questionable) gender. Clarity "questionable."              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
