A strange dream
By:
Post # 1
About a week ago I had a strange dream. No matter how I try to nutshell this, it turns out long. I'll try to knock it down to the bare minimum.

I was fleeing diseased and changing people (covered in blisters, deformed beyond humanity). I eventually found myself in a kitchen, with a door on the opposite end from where I entered. Immediately the word 'goddess' began echoing whenever she was in view, for the rest of the dream, and involuntarily whenever I have meditated or even thought about the dream since.

A woman entered behind me, through the same door. She was not touched by the affliction of the others I had been fleeing. I somehow could not express anything negative to her, and she greeted me warmly.

I was about to flee through a second door, and she told me not to go that way, that it would end badly for me. I looked through the window and saw a huge gray spotted cat waiting.

A second woman, fighting her own infection, entered the kitchen begging the first woman for help. The first reached into a hidden space in the kitchen ceiling for the medication, and applied the salve to the infected woman's blistered face. She said we had a better escape than to keep running. A shaft of light shot through the room, and took us somewhere far away. There were other people in a similar circumstance.

The woman said she could not answer my questions right then, but if I returned in one hour -- she stressed one hour -- then she could answer them. I jolted awake, and a few moments later my alarm went off.

Here are the odd parts:

I wake up early to take my girlfriend to her early work shift. The total time is usually just under 90 minutes. Then I try to catch a few winks before getting up for my own job, two hours later, but it takes a little time to fall asleep again. So no matter what, it was more than an hour.

I felt like it was some sort of a challenge for her, and I failed, even though meeting her requirement would have meant driving ridiculously fast on my way home (pushing the accelerator to the floor the entire time, running lights, etc.).

I have meditated on the meaning of the dream several times. I have tried other things as well. I believe I know the meanings of some parts, but not the woman. She seems very important, and stood out in the dream.

I will appreciate any advice for figuring out if there was significance, and what it may be. Or how to find out who she was specifically. I'm running out of ideas.

Okay I am gonna try to explain this in matters I might have to explain to myself. So let me try to decipher this dream you went into a white room with a door on the other side (that door will be the door to insanity) the word goddess echoes throughout your ears (so a girl) a girl comes in(which is the goddess) and tells you not to go into the insanity door so you my friend either have a spirit protecting you or a goddess protecting you.

"... you my friend either have a spirit protecting you or a goddess protecting you."

I was considering this, as well as the possibility that if the protective woman (she had grey hair) were attempting to make herself known -- whether goddess or guardian spirit -- that it may be beneficial to figure out (for myself, of course) who she is.

The insanity door aspect is something I had not considered.

Also, the grey spotted cat seemed significant as part of the dream, as if it was something about that path (now I also have the path to insanity to consider in that context) or about myself (maybe some aspects of myself I am not yet ready to face? I'm not certain).

You gave me more to think about. I appreciate the help.
