   Had a *most* unusual "dream experience" (on the 24??, during a couch nap, if I   
   recall correctly) in which the dreamer (or the dream perspective) was viewing a   
   dog (who looked like my present dog, Ginger) and another creature, whom the   
   dreamer at first thought was a butterfly, as it was flitting about above ground   
   level by perhaps around a foot or two.   
      
   The dog was leaping to get the critter, much like how a dog might leap / snap   
   to   
   try and catch a pesky fly.   
      
   The dreamer (or dream perspective) "zoomed in" (approached, got a closer view)   
   only it was less like walking, and more like "leading with one's right foot."   
   (At the time, I'm *fairly certain* this was a couch nap, which cradles my   
   backside between the bottom cushions and the side, so it's much akin to being   
   on   
   one's back, yet comfortably, and this couch is long enough that my left foot is   
   comfortably tucked within the couch's armrest, while my right foot can be a tad   
   "loose" (or "free") depending upon position.)   
      
   *Normally,* in a flying dream, I'm either "projecting" from my head, or   
   sometimes my chest (as if on a flying pillow, for example) and even one time,   
   by   
   "following my fingers."  I'm *fairly certain* this was the *first* time I'd   
   ever   
   been "projecting from my foot/toes."   
      
   At any rate, the dreamer (or dream perspective) came closer to the dog and   
   critter, only to notice that what was thought to be a butterfly was now either   
   a   
   squirrel or a rabbit.  I can only surmise that since those are the two critters   
   most earnestly chased by Ginger, that may be of some significance as to why I'm   
   unable to remember precisely which was which and when.  I *think* it was first   
   a   
   squirrel, yet as the dreamer approached, it became a rabbit, and rather than   
   take that "capture bite" that a dog can execute on a rabbit, instead, it   
   *licked* the rabbit's fur, as if they'd grown up together since infancy, and   
   were like a "blended family."   
      
   The dreamer held the rabbit with one hand (the right hand?) and the critter may   
   have tried to wriggle around to bite the dreamer, but the dreamer calmed the   
   critter so that it had nothing to fear / became peaceful.   
      
   Now what was more interesting than anything else about all this was how the   
   dreamer "entered" that critter's presence.  It was *as if* the dog and the   
   critter had been *floating above ground level,* and now, having followed the   
   dreamer's right foot, the dreamer and the critter also seemed to be floating.   
   The feeling was as if there were no gravity whatsoever.  Clarity likely an   
   "astral body" type experience.  For all I know, the dreamer *may* have actually   
   taken the perspective of the dog!  Since coming to the focus of the critter,   
   the   
   dog was no longer a direct *visual* (objective) element within the dream.
