Dream Stories/Interpretation Thread

Occasional study and being told by several people at different times that buildings represent the self. I have a general never being "outside" in mine, even if it's a yard or something there's a feeling that there's a dome or something over it. Many of my buildings have no exit or if you leave them you're in something else.

I've been writing down what I remember for some time now and pondering them, especially ones with Xavier in them.

i hate to ask this, because I feel like I should have been paying better attention, but what's the deal with Xavier if you don't mind my asking?

Cool about the building thing again... come to think of it the vast majority of dreams that I have involve school or work, so indoors. But those 2 things are the 2 biggest points of contention in my life. To me those are like nightmares, being trapped in places of misery and torture.

Oddly I have always enjoyed the few dreams that I have had that other people would consider nightmares, like being chased by Freddy Kreuger or something. I wake up feeling exhilerated like I had just ridden a roller coaster. Then I've always loved horror movies, so those kind of dreams are like watching a good movie because I partially get to experience it.

Xavier, the black haired doll in my avatar, is the focus of my guardian angel, male half, and all that other stuff. I know him when I encounter him in dreams and almost become him in some, we share the identity he never leaves.

You can work to add exits to buildings. It's like taming nightmares where you make the choice to have something good happen instead.

That's awesome! I wish I had some sort of thing like that. I always feel like 2 different people, but not in such a comforting way. Also cool that you can dream about him. I have never been able to dream about the things I want to, like my father after he passed away or guys that I'm dating at the time or characters that I made or something. Oh one other thing that pops up a lot in my dreams are old pets that have passed away. Particularly my ferrets. In the dreams I always feel like I'm not taking as good care of them as I should be for some reason. But when I wake up I kind of feel glad that I saw them, like they had just paid me a visit.

I can't purposefully dream of him, he comes when he comes. And dreams happen as they happen. It's the locations I find the most interesting.

Last nights dream: I was walking in a store and saw brand new Sailor Moon dolls, and they were in these big black boxes(kinda like Barbie doll boxes). And they were realllly nice, with a bunch of extra clothes and accessories. Except I noticed that the Sailor Moon doll was a PGSM version, while all the others were the manga/anime versions. So I told the cashier, and he talked to the manager, and they thanked me for telling them, because they hadn't caught it, and I ended up getting all the dolls for free. Then it jumps to a different store, and I'm looking for some new Disney action figures, but I can't tell which ones are which, because they are all backwards in the boxes. It then jumped to some kind of Tales of Symphonia/Charmed crossover, which is when I woke up.

So yeah...my dreams are weird sometimes....

I had a weird dream a couple nights ago, but I can't remember anything about it except I was in a mall and I tried to run up a down escalator, but it turned into a piece of foamboard.

I haven't had a bad dream in a long time and last night's made me wake with a start.
I dreamed that I witnessed a woman being kidnapped. She then jumped out of a window of a 4 story house, ran to a sidewalk near traffic naked and this old man followed her. He grabbed her cheek and started cutting in to it with a pair of scissors. No one stopped or even looked. I watched from a distance while perched on an iron fence and was shouting but I was essentially helpless. He dragged her back inside by the flap of cheek skin he cut open earlier and then for the rest of the dream I heard her screams: short sharp piercing shrieks. He was skinning her alive with scissors.

What the fuck. =(

I've had a lot of strange dreams. Many seem to be repetitive, or I think they are repetitive. XD I'll be dreaming and be all "Oh, I remember this dream. I want it to go this way" XD

Last night's random dream: I was dreaming about beauty and the beast and then it ended up being me and my friend as the princess people's and the princes. I was upset because my skin was the wrong color. I guess there had been a servant who had come to the castle with the wrong skin color and we had to go out and find the real one. All the while said servant was setting up "decorations" for my birthday or something? And all I could think was "they're going to kill the king" Because the swords in the decorations were positioned in such a way you could just hit part of them and they'd lop off the head of anyone walking through the doors. Then I went off into the forest (past the people setting fires to the forest) on my horse Maximus or Solomon or some other cool name, to find my real self... The forest turned into a walmart or something like that and I was stabbing the people with the knives they were trying to stab me with. I found two other versions of myself but they didn't seem to be the real princess and I headed back to the castle but as I had thought it had been overrun....

I'm guessing a lot of this has to do with the fact I was bored and looking up Disney Princess stuff last night, and watched Tangled a couple weeks ago. XD And my dreams almost always involve someone trying to kill me. >_>
