Remember My Dreams

1. Torn Key

Street of parents, nightfall, still light, quality colours. We were all at the end of the street, maybe at Stco's. Now, my brother N and I go back home, but parents are still there. So my brother and me come home and the house is closed. I have a key or there is a key on the door and I open it, this one I turn is so soft that it starts to tear, so I stop. And the lock itself was tearing as well. So it is broken anyway.
There were other keys and locks I opened, other doors.

2. Sex Session

Inside a house with many people who more or less know each other. Not very light. The ground floor is divided in different section, each on a different level, like terraces. Up on the right is a kitchen area but I don't go there. The living room is the middle in front and the lower one on the left. And behind is something like a separation and other areas are behind that that I can't remember being there, but more people are there. This is some kind of get together.
At some point towards the end of maybe the weekend I lie down on the floor of the middle living room, to the left side, and with somebody, a woman I recognize as Rigr. Other people have sex or had sex already, and people are pairing up, especially the girls are active this time. And there is some meaning or purpose in this, and I go with the flow, which is why I am on the floor, without understanding all of it, while the girls around me know the whole context. I think even one or two or watching us and giving remarks.
It is very slow and I don't know what I should do, but we undress ourselves lying there, and still I'm not sure about the whole thing, also neither of us is really excited. She is not very wet, and my member not all the way ready. I touch her pussy to feel if she is ready, and there is some wetness, but not in the right places. I put my finger in her, and she likes that and she actually thinks that I enter her, but I did not even know I was allowed, but I know it now. This is when there is more interference from the onlookers, and some have sex of their own. She says that she did not expect it to be hard, but of course it was not, and her remark made sense since all the earlier sessions with other girls and boys were the same and the idea is like this that it never works like that if you do a quick one on the spot with a stranger, it will never work.
After that I realize I am lying with someone else. And after that with another still, but this third time for sure is a man, also someone I know, but can't remember who. But we were already finishing and he gets up and goes away to the right.
That is the end of the dream as far as I can remember, but before there might have been a fragment with a bathroom., too.

3.  Dream Memory Substitute

I come home or it is time to work, but I am in the kitchen of my parents which is part of the shop, so more open and spacious. I sit down at my regular place and there is a computer there on the table. And Keva is in the neighbourhood, and he is exactly the person I was looking for, because I have been away for the night or the night and the day, and had asked him to watch my dreams, and now he is there and I ask him. And he says, yes yes I remember your dreams, and I see the piece of paper empty, which means that he did not take any notes and I am angry with him and I tell him. This is a red piece of paper, maybe a quarter of a normal sheet.
He stands to my right, but remains cheerful and says something, like he had a dream about two windows and it was very bright, and I recognize the dream as my own, because it is exactly what I dreamed, and I tell him, and he continues, saying something like 'do you remember you swung your sword' and I do because I had  just dreamed it and it is totally weird that he remembers my dreams. This was an experiment, but apparently it works. The sword was a katana, an in my own dream it got longer when I swung it once, towards the window, this in an upstairs apartment room with not much space. So I found a slight difference, but I am still amazed. Everything he said he remembered was just the same as I dreamed myself.
And he says he would like to see my report, but I don't want to do that because there is some personal stuff in it too, that he does not know, such as the sex in the earlier dream, which I also remembered, but he must have remembered it in a slightly different way. And I am still mad at him.
I have the red paper in my hands and want to begin typing.
Later we are really in the shop, but Keva is no longer here and I have to take over his work. I am in one particular place in the shop, right side, but very small, long. Shelves on the right. Stuff is on the shelves that should not be there, so Keva left me with a lot of work, for which I am not thankful.
First on the left side of the shelves, then in the middle. Can't remember the details but I did a lot of things. Other people were in the neighbourhood, which made it more difficult, because there really was not much room.

4. Window

Dream starts when I wake up and sit up on a large table which before was my bed and I have breakfast and I look out to the street which is the Naamsestraat, the left side if you come from the centre.
The window is open, but in this case that means the whole wall on the street side is open, because the window stretches from one side to the other, and the view is amazing, though just the street. I am high enough and not ground level. Then I see people's heads, which means that my apartment or room is not very high above ground level, but maybe only something between one or two meters. And from across the street I see three Chinese people, a woman, a girl, and someone else, leave a shop which reminds me of the music shop near Stuk. And the young girl sees me, crosses the street, wears something light green, and comes towards to verify if she can really see inside the house. Much light. I am not sure what to think of it, I was not prepared for it but I'm not going to close the windows just because of that. So I let her look, but there is no interaction, when she is at the house she can barely see over the top, which is my floor.
But after that there is more openness, and other people look inside. There is one family in particular that I guess are Dutchmen. A family, man, woman, boy, girl. The boy is the youngest and still small, but can walk and has a toy in his hand, he is very curious and climbs over the wall to that he comes in on my floor, because my windows are also the whole length from floor to ceiling. And he comes in some way.
The father is not very happy about it and comes nearer, he is tall, and apologizes to me, and I say it is okay, but he wants to get his son back and therefore comes in too. Then the whole family follows and I am still at breakfast, not dressed at all. In the meantime the boy is behind me.
What the people in the street look at in fact is the painting I have hanging behind me, and I know that. This is the wide piece of cloth I have hanging in my apartment, with the two dragons, the red and the yellow. The son gives some comments about it, did that before.
I want to get up and get the boy, but the father stops me. Just as well, because I am stark naked, which I realize then. The family once entered will go out the back, which is of course the normal way. I watch them go through the door. And maybe I walk a little with them. Of course the family is quick to leave, but the boy stays behind, playful, and rather comfortable being here. And in the hall, which is still my apartment, because this is right behind my room, and on the right is the door and the stairs, he starts to dance. And he does that very well, which I did not expect from such a small boy.
Not long after the dream ends, but I can't remember well how. This was the very last dream, possibly already 9am.

+ 5. Black Tourmaline

Stones, black tourmalin, and others, arranged throughout the otherwise empty house, different rooms and grey light, only ground floor, hosted by a man. Arranged in three to five stones, window sill, tables, floor. Other crystals too, maybe just rock crystal. I am amazed to see so many stones at once in a house. But the host keeps the stones here.

Two Cards

1. Irish Film and Dead Frog

In the shop, someone asks for information. Two young girls are there. The books I show are for children and cover three ages, the middle age I have the least of, and the age above is mostly Geronimo Stilton. So it's either for very young, or too old for these two girls. The ages are colour coded. Digr is in the neighbourhood and listens, and I know, but he does not interfere and I don't falter because of it. So I think I'm doing well, even if he is listening, because that creates some pressure.

Later, customers need an agenda, want to buy it, I show them, but none of it is good. Then Niab is there. Now without something something. Then, deciding to either make food right here or go out and eat out.
With Niab I will go watch a film, which we started. Something Celtic. N and D are here, and other people, too, watch with us. But I don't think they can follow.
Maybe the story of the film is a saga, set in Ireland, very beautiful landscape, but I recognize nothing, for example from my only visit there long ago, with Bale (in reality).
Film. People in it speak with a German accent, which is Irish in the dream, and there are no subtitles. There is the character Gandalf, but we watch it anyway, even without subtitles. But I can't really follow.
Afterwards we sit in a bar, wood, pub, on one end, low table, I on one side, and the other two (who?) opposite. We are drinking mead and it is very nice. We actually drink sake, and this is Germanic because derives from Saligwe, which according to the dream is a house of prayer in the middle ages, something like the first hospitals, some kind of church at the same time, and the word or drink has to do with hygiene.
I brought my own mead, and this one is also good, it is stronger and the colour is better. Very deep red, my mead, and she, who is on my right, says that it has a very deep red colour. It is the best one. The mead bottle on the left has a weird top on it to seal it, this is not my bottle. And there is a tea bag someone had.
When my mead is there I only want to drink my own and not of the common one anymore. But then the mead starts to taste weird, a little bad, and something is in it that makes it dirty. And I still drink it. But when I look I see a dead frog on the bottom, and because it has been there long, it starts to give off stuff and contaminates the mead. Yet I am stubborn and keep drinking as if this is normal. The others don't see it, I don't say it. And I know it is in there.

2. Mince Meat as Ink

Lord of the Rings film in Chinese.
Letter I wrote to Elbr. This is in the kitchen of parents, when parents are taking their evening nap, and I am alone in the kitchen. I have a lot of stuff there. First on the side where usually my mom sits, and start to write, but I write with food, I made the food myself, and think this is a good opportunity to use it. Then I put it on the radiator.
The letter is in a metal oven tray, and I think the food I write with is like the mince meat sauce for lasagna. But there is also red beetroot in it, and all is cooked and ready, and I'm actually happy about this and also about the fact that I finally write this letter. 
When parents get up they come in the kitchen and I try to clean up, and in the letter too, and this is on the radiator, and in the tray itself are cooking plates of different sizes and they are actually hot. So I have to be careful not to burn myself, but the beetroot I eat, some pieces of it at least, which is good.

3. Angry with Customer
 
Then there is a fragment with singing, and my dad, and Michael Jackson, but can't remember well, though the music in the dream was impressive and lucid. Ballad.
The song is famous but I forgot the text. Girl of something something, but has also passed away (like Michael Jackson I suppose). She sings first and the rest follows, that is the idea. She has a really good voice. R girl of someone.
I am surprised that people who are not English can sing so well in English.

Earlier.
I have to help at the till so I go. (Can't read notes). Boy something something (can't read notes) and girls is being difficult. And he has two paying cards, but I get angry at the counter and don't accept them, in fact, I take both of them and fling them on the floor. That is how mad I am. That is because they were being difficult. Because he always says one thing and then comes back on his decision, this the whole time, changing, and never the same thing. What I am angry about is that he never gives me the time to reply, or consider, so I can never give an answer, before I can he has already changed mind and asked or said something else, and I am powerless.
I also have a problem with the computer. Calls his friends (who and why?) and something something, and luckily not this and this (I can't read my notes). Something with a woman teacher, school teacher. And I suppose the 'luckily not' note refers to Digr not being there.
This lady school teacher decides all of a sudden that it is not nice here anymore, this because I got angry with the cards, and she gathers all her pupils in order to leave the shop. But they stay a little while in the shop to evaluate, and make two nice queues, like school children do and it is half past three (?).

White Sheep

1. Apple Juice Punch

Info something something. Something something. For discount for students.
I win (?) always from the god. The old gods are in, Athene, Poseidon.
Afterwards I go home. I put everything in the car. And something something pajamas. I walk on the street to get water (?).
By then I am free to go. Bale is there, but she does not want to see me and I don't force her. Her brother R is there too.
Crossroads. I avoid Bale, while she is just arriving and I go to the hotel where I was earlier.
There is punch there, very nice one, and I am thirsty, apple juice.

2. Shepherd

Mael, who I know from childhood, a friend of Brdk. Tables. Garden of parents. Checking my emails. Something about gay people.
Later. N is there (can't read notes). Man and a woman, something something, looks like it (don't know like what).
Later. I am alone and something something, but without something something (can't read notes). There is a shepherd with his sheep. (Can't read notes). The sheep are only a handful and they are big, bigger than people, and very white.
We continue to the art gallery, and visitors.

3. This Cannot Be a Dream

(Can't read notes). Parents, brothers. Big sausage. There is a particular sausage I want, but we don't pass that stall, though it looks very good. None of them is interested in it or sees it. I do, but I follow my family. Then we go from the eating stalls to a nearby place where we can sit down and eat.
There is not enough food.
I would like that one particular German sausage (Bratwurst). So I get up from the table, picknick table, and go there, but my father also gets up and he follows me, as if to guide me.
The place is closed. Now I feel we will be taking too long and we should either return or let the others know or continue with the others, but we don't. I now follow my father, and he continues, and I follow, so we are leaving the others behind.
And we stray a long while and after a while we are in a car, but others have joined us nonetheless. People I don't know, but who are friendly. (Maybe such as Debu).
My dad knows exactly where to go and we arrive at the iron gates of a domain, which is the place of Kajo. And obviously, when we arrive, we clearly see that all has been cleared already. Closed, finished. The gate is open, but it always is. No one on the field. The house is like a small castle in front to the right. On the left are pastures. This is the country side. Cobbled path to gate. Very rustic.
When we stop in front of the gate, we see sheep come toward us. This is a strange sight, because there are many, normal size, white, but some just float in the air as if they belong there.
And when I see this I think by myself, this is too real, this cannot be a dream. It hinders me to go forward, and as if I am paralyzed I stay there. My father is still with me.
Then the next moment, everything continues like in a normal dream, and we are in the house. Kajo saw us through the windows. We go in through the back door, stairs up, very posh this house. Upstairs a table is prepared to have dinner. It is Christmas. Pavb is also there, upstairs. So now I left my brothers and mother behind, I realize. But I am hungry, so I am glad I went, so I want to stay anyway. That is my decision.
Many tables are ready to receive guests, but no one is here yet, and we are here by coincidence.
Later we go away, but in the garden, they are still busy, maybe with a ritual. The atmosphere is that of winter. A little bleak. Wabo is there too, he is a friend of primary school.
I had noted my name, last name. At some point I hear Pavb call my last name, he chants it. This is part of the ritual. Intuitively, I had written down my name. And I am the first of the list, which is special.
At some point I have to speak French, but I don't remember the fragment.
At some point I want to sea a film, this is in the house of K&P. I only find a detective made by Toon Hermans. I don't watch it, I won't have time anyway, this is in a side room near the dining room, on the left.
 I feel welcome and out of place at the same time.

Elastic Handles

1. Lasagna in the Back of the Car

With D, Bale or Chwe, going home.
Car, still loaded with food. Cleaning the tables.
Earlier. There are certain baskets, and they have certain handles and these are long and white and twined, but of plastic or some kind of synthetic fabric, I pull them, in the middle of those is an extra, darker brown handle, I put my hands in these to lift the thing. These long strings are elastic. 
There is also a fragment where I tumble through the sky. Not all is good, but all is acrobatic, and people around, this in light, walls around, yet public place, no roof.
Earlier, in the house, maybe with Chwe. Dark rooms and people are dressed up and preparing dinner.
Once we get home, there is still food, such as lasagna. This is all loaded in the trunk, back of the car. Making this food takes a lot of time. Chwe says: from the shop across. (Either means: go get it there, or it comes from there, or it is quicker if you get it there).
Elbe was there too.

Returning from France

1. Touched by Fire
(Wet dream).

Very thrilling dream about fire. At some point, maybe in the kitchen of parents, I am there with a lady, possibly Chwe, and I am cautioned by someone, maybe N, not too touch her with fire yet, but I do it anyway, far too early, but she reacts, and this causes the dream to be wet. When I touch her with the fire in my fingers, all is set aflame. No, it was Digr telling me. He says that I can do it, so he incites me, but I know it myself too. This time, I did not need any guiding.
People in the dream are organized in two groups, and I think the dream had some end of the world feel to it.
N and D are here.
At the end of the dream I sit down at a table, normal length, but narrow, I suppose the others will sit down too in a minute.

2. Number 33

Something about the number 33. People are watching something something stuffed toy animals. People look on. Full moon. Helping (I do?) one 'rosol' (?) (can't read it properly).

3. A Hostel in France

Fragment of being in a shop. There is a boy there, he has to go to Herent, so I give him directions. I something something who is awake.
Maybe related to the fragment, I walk the streets in the neighbourhood of where we are staying, and I see Rale, the younger brother of Bale, and I see him from behind and I think  it is better to leave him. Then he meets a woman. He never looks in my direction, the streets are empty, it is night.
We are somewhere outside, going somewhere. We stop because we want to take a break. I am underway with my colleagues, in particular Digr and List I remember. We are traveling in France. I see both colleagues more definitely a second time when they come from somewhere, but still the same scene.
We are on our way home, I something something (can't read notes), home something. I enter, Digr says or asks whether there isn't something I want to eat first? But I want nothing to do with him, yet I go with him. This is outside in some village we stopped for the night. There is a small square of the road with benches which is quite and leads to the hostel, but I remain outside, while my colleagues go in and take care of their rooms. I don't want to. I sit on a bench. But then when I went with them a little because Digr asked, and I return I see that new people have arrived and sit on the bench that I occupied, because it is the first one, and I can't sit there anymore, but that is okay because I see other benches and I take another closer to me now.
This other group stays outside too. They are three women with blond hair, and their children. One (child or woman?) wants to do something with me, maybe share food, and (can't read notes), so we sit together at one table. I stay behind with them when Digr and List go on an expedition.
Rains. Inside, restaurant. This is later. First outside, on a field of grass. There are zombies too, and this place is related to the little cosy square of before. Now it is night and dark. Pesl is here, but on the side of the zombies. There are many and people take up their weapons. I ask someone for a sword, but they have no more, so he gives me a club with spikes, but it is a toy one like we have at home. Better than nothing I think and I accept.
The zombies try to get the dead body to their camp, so someone must have fallen or died recently that people know of (I can't remember). Sword fighting. Naturally, these zombies don't die. We hit them often. I count, like we did at Live Acting Role Play, but when I reach ten I start to think that there is no end to it. Then I reach 20 and still they stand. And I only count my own hits, of course, after 10 hits I switch to another zombie, because it becomes too dangerous to stay with one, though we surround one with three. But I am thinking that they don't go down because I keep switching between them, but even when I reach 20 they still stand.

4. Orange Crystal Room

Inside, a shop, dark. At first this is a Delhaize, one I know, I am still traveling and just arrived here, but people are closing up, and I wanted to buy stuff. I had a whole list in my head, but the more I look around the less there is and the more I see the employees cover things up. And I ask them whether I can still buy something, because obviously, they want to go and I have no time left, but they say yes, go ahead, but then they also explain I can use the till myself when they are gone. I'm not sure about this, but am happy enough to be able to buy things, yet by that time I have forgotten what I needed. Maybe Anpi is there or she comes later.
All the employees are women and after a short while they leave the shop. When they are closed I am still here, and then other people arrive, and I explain. But when someone wants to buy something, then I go to the till and touch the screen, because it is with a touch screen, and the screen is horizontal, but it does not make sense to me and I always am wrong, so it does not work. After that I look for a manual, because there is bound to be one, but the dream gives me no time or opportunity.
Then this place because the secret place to gather for a conference of occult talks. Fras is here, and maybe Dapa, and some Jews too. There will certainly be a talk about necromancy. Speakers are already preparing in the adjacent rooms.
When all is ready people are guided to their speakers, and I realize the program is so full that you have to choose between three speakers. Everyone else is prepared, I see the program on a sheet of paper. I follow Fras, or go my own way but end up in the same room as her. I go through the first room, which is big, much bigger than the shop, then go to the second and stay there. As big. The whole room is darkened, but soft light is spread by the crystals, orange to red, placed about the room, this is wonderful. So many stones together I had not seen yet. Stones are arranged in different places, but always in groups, and one group contains many stones. And they all shine. The man who is going to do something is at the other end, and I see Fras there, but I stay where I am, the man is assisted by a woman.

5. Try to Watch a DVD

One of the last dreams. I'm home, though it looks very different and feels very different than reality. White, light, small. I just watched a film, cartoon, and when I finished I see that loads of dvd's are packed behind me. All the same ones, packages, but they contain part two and three of what I just watched, something with a penguin on the cover. These dvd's are from work, which is why they are here. But when I look carefully, I see that some packages are open, and I might take the dvd and watch it, which is what I plan to do.
When I want to do that, the scene changes and we are in a different living room, with my brothers and the children of the street, neighbours, and about to watch a dvd. My brothers are in charge.
There is a computer and I want to access it, not waiting for my brothers, because I want to do something too. But there is a code, and it seems this is the account of Beha and I don't know his password, although the first letter is given, which is 'a', and I remember what it should be, so I enter it, but another screen with password is given then. This is more difficult because it refers to characters from children's series, but they are written in the way children pronounce them, not the right spelling, and I can't read it, but behind me I hear the others read each of the names out loud together. At that point I am at another computer in the same room but a little further on the left.

6. Back Problems

There was also someone with a back problem who sat in a chair. Maybe Joja cared for him, I sat opposite them at the table, and more people were at the table, light. The helper explained, that his lower vertebrae were rusted, and that when he sat in a couch, he would look very strange, because he can't sit upwards. Now, only on a hard chair he can sit, because of the very straight position.

7. Veranda Get Together with Neighbours

Last dream. Home of parents, day, light, I go to the veranda, there are many of us gathered already, all the neighbours, of our age. They sit at a table, round one, in the middle of the veranda. I go there from the living room and sit on one side. Later Stco arrives too, and he has a young child with him, holding him against his chest. Now I can't remember what happened, but Stco was laughed at for some reason and I did not laugh, and Stco stayed serious.

Hera

1. Gods

Living room. Being among the gods. (Can't read notes). Personification of gods.

2. Gods and Apples

Same dream.
Goddess Hera. Offerings. Battle. Dreams. These three (again) go hand in hand.
And then Thor, battle something something (can't read my notes).
Two people have something something (can't read notes).
(Can't read my notes).

Outside. Choosing. I go along with the others along the field or the something something way.
Apple and or orange, and the gods.

3. Street

Hera. Something something. Lance, bronze, gold.
Maybe Freyja.

Something something, outside on the street, make ready, inside. (Can't read note). Late.

4. Online Watch

I am wearing a watch on my left wrist, like I used to when I was fourteen or fifteen, and it is the same watch, so in the dream I am also assuming, that it is broken, and it even looks like that. Standing. Brother N on my right, someone else on my left. Dark, maybe inside. On the side. Discussion going on, I'm not paying attention, but follow conversation anyway, since it is only the three of us. Then N says I can check this or that on my watch, because it looks like something ultra modern, so he thinks I should be able to go online. I had the same thought before he asked, but did not check anything, because I was sure the watch is broken.

Now I check anyway, because he asks, and I press the buttons that I should, and am surprised to find that it still works. Still, I can't believe it works properly, but for my brother this was enough. He's got the info.

Last dream.

5. Lao

Fragment in which I was reading names on a sheet of paper, criss cross, but beneath were four names which had the element Lao in it, three names started with Lao, and a fourth ended with -lao. That caught my attention. These might have been Greek names.

Snow Befallen Crests

1. River Road and Voodoo Dance

Fras and Phpa are coming. I go to my room. Fras makes a libation of mead. Lecu, who is a customer, follows me. Lucid moment.
Now my room is a large hall. She is looking for books to prepare herself for a talk (Fras?). I stay in the background, I don't want to participate just yet. The books are shelved at one end, the hall looks like a gym.
She reads (Lecu?), sits with me. When she is done, she lies down with me, as if this is the most natural thing to do, while I don't know her.
There is a fragment where I read something too, and this is a book about Suske and Wiske, it contains five stories, and is a pocket edition, so smaller than usual, but with a hard cover. Or three stories (according to my notes).
When things start to get close, I instinctively pull back. This happens a few times. I keep my distance, me all the way on the left, she right next to me, in the couch. So nothing happens. She does not understand, but the fact is that I want to be the one taking initiative.
Then Hage, who is a customer and a theologist, and Istu are there. And Lecu has a PSP with her to keep herself busy.
Then a fragment outside when we go from one place to another, in a very nice place, road, water on the sides, light, enclosed, quite and private. Outside, yet only connecting the rooms of our complex. We go one way first, then back, or turn back halfway, but continue, all this because first I walk alone and then meet Istu who comes from the other side. This was very lucid and bright. And at the same time confusing to remember.
The water runs alongside the road, but there is sometimes also grass, but sometimes the water is right next to the road, and sometimes on the other side. But when I look at the water is is very clear, and I see a miniature whale swimming in it. And maybe other animals, which I think is great. This when I turn back, and also on the way back, this was to catch up on people who were lagging behind, I also saw a hanky and put my hand in the water and took it from the water, but first waved it in the water in one smooth movement.
At some point Istu shows me, on the side of the road, when we stand still, an episode of an anime, and it is projected in the air, and I recognize it and in fact I knew in advance what she would show me, but I have seen the same episode weeks ago, so it is old news to me.
At that point, Suke is also there, who is a customer, who I know a little. She wants my jacket, and I give it to her, because she is always in need to help and I try to be kind. There is a bridge some way in front.
I want to prove to Istu that I already know the episode, but I can't remember the title. Suke knows it and helps me out. She says: Rurouni Kenshin. It might be one of those episodes, but it wasn't.
I also knew that Istu was watching the series, even though she only reveals it now. This because of telepathic communication, of which she is unaware.
Later, there is also Else, who is a witch, and I deal with her, she is a friend, and I talk about the episode because there is meaning in it, and this relates to what happens next, when I say things to Else, it becomes a little darker around her like winter, and it starts to snow, but only about her, and she wears a thick coat, fur, and is okay with the snow, because it is part of who she is. And this is because the title was something like Snow Befallen Crests.
In fact the water around here comes from the episode somehow. Just as the snow does.

The dream continues. I go into town. It is night and dark outside. There is a square. I must have passed there on my way to the top, because I had to go to the highest point of the city.
I am there, with a few people. When things are done, we go back. The street I want to take is closed, people are not allowed to go that way down. The people who live here decided that. This is a cobbled street, very nice, and I know the area well. There are many streets that go down that way, but we can't go there. So we have to turn back. This is inconvenient, because now we will pass the square again, and now there will be people busy there and I had wanted to avoid going there.
We take the stone stairs which is the pavement down, and come to the square, all this is pedestrian area, and there are many African people there and a few Western, and there is some Voodoo ceremony taking place, about which I was informed, and people stand around it in a circle, African people, and this is a trance session.
I heard their noise and music from faraway. Now close by one session is finished and the next starts. So only the two male leaders are now in the circle. Maybe one of them is Ma, the friend of Chwe. Two of them, and a third man is also black but a competitor. But he is not allowed within the circle, and the two of them really keep him out, because they know they can't win from him. But before this happened, the three of them had already decided to settle things next Friday, but this is the third man's initiative. 
Now a new dance will begin. Those two look for people from the bystanders. Always from the same place, I am still not there, and he picks women and from the place where it is open, the side to the path down. Three times he chooses a lady, but the first two times I interfere and hold them back, because I know they mean evil to these women, and I want to protect them because they are innocent. The third one is someone of their own group, and I don't care about that. Then I go away with the two other ladies.
End of dream.

2. Vowed to One Woman

Kitchen. Brother D and I are talking about mother, this is already in the middle of a dream. She is in the neighbourhood, maybe the kitchen, and we in the dining room. Or she in the veranda and we in the kitchen. Anyway, I whisper. I'm actually not proud to do this, but want to say my opinion anyway, and D nods.
Both parents are present.
Then, Niru is here. This is when we leave, we are outside, pass through the city at night, and the roads are quite, and wide, when we come to a certain road, there are motorcycles parked, and the riders too, in the middle of the road, we continue, but Niru wants to challenge them and takes his motor, but his is a bit bigger than those present, so it is not a fair fight.
Things went like this first, when we arrived at this road, and had to cross it, two riders were just about to ride, and we are in between them and the others, so we see them coming towards us at full speed, and we let them and both of them jump over us. And it might have been dangerous, but nothing happened. They go a long way in the air. That is when Niru wants to test his own might. Of course he does better.
After this, if I remember well, he wants to teach them, and this goes wrong all the way, because he says they have to breathe this way or that, and people are confused and choke, and fall on the floor and so on. It really makes things worse.
Later, in the bus, I am in the bus, and I am single, which is important in the dream. There is also a couple. I know the man, maybe N.
But although I saw them since some time now, only when I pass again and look the woman in the eye do I see that it is Elbr.
And she says to me: did you not vow your love to one woman? She says this because I talked with the man about women, maybe about Chwe in my thoughts. But that is when I recognize her. I look her full in the face, her eyes. She has definitely matured, but still looks beautiful and majestic. Dark brown hair, a spark in her eyes. Smiling. She looks older.
When I recognize her I find myself in a difficult situation, because I vowed to myself to make her my wife. She is the one she is talking about. But it is clear enough that she has a boyfriend now. So, what can I do. Conversation continues, and at some point she jokingly threatens her husband saying that if he keeps doing this or that that she will leave him and marry me.
(From notes). Close family, man, child, grandchild (?), Elbr also a kid (writing this down gives me a sort of dejavu, I am sure that I wrote those words down before many years ago, maybe in a vision, remembering a dream).
Fragment in which I see my stones and crystals. This is in the shop (?).
Maybe last fragment, back in the kitchen, talking about construction, building, we are in the dining room, looking at the kitchen door, that is me, N and D and some other people who might be involved in building, because the side of the door on the right is broken, and the wall on the side, bottom, too. This has been so for some time, but now things cannot be postponed anymore. N is building a house for himself, which is why he talks about these things. The bad place in the wall, bottom, reminds me of the ruined wall in the shop.
I am thinking about isolation, because when you build a new house, then isolation is important, maybe sheets of lead too, because it keeps radiation out, but N says that it will reflect the radiation inside the house too, and that will be bad. That is the last thing and I am already waking up.
Before that was this. At home, living room, N and a woman, I am here. Something something, maybe waiting, because it is Chwe. Maybe the woman is Chwe and she is bound to N. Because she has a cold she sleeps with N. Three or four hours, she says, at night, only at Monday, Tuesday, and maybe also Wednesday. So it is a compromise.

Wrapping Paper with a Zip

1. Exam and Zipped Wrapping Paper

Late, already nighttime, I want to help somebody with making a package. This is one of the tasks that we were set, to wrap something up. There is a girl who has trouble with it, so I help.
The scene itself changes a little from time to time. Big classroom to take examinations or living room of parents. And the examinations room changes appearance too. First light, later dark.
Tables, other people working. We all got two plastic bags as our exam. I have mine and sit down at a table. One person per table. The girl is in the background and doing something else, because something else is happening at the same time, which I now can't remember. But now all these people in front of me are also taking the exam. It is puzzling, and I see everyone bent idle over their bags.
They are plastic shopping bags, maybe of the shop where I work. I have a sheet of paper too. The purpose is to make a list of everything that is in the bag, but in a certain order, but I can't remember the details.
When you first look at the bags you see that they are filled with other plastic bags, and that is why everyone thinks there is nothing in it. The sheet of paper is coloured, or has some design on it to help us make the list.
Zealous I take the plastic out of the bag and then I see there is something in it, hidden. I take it out, there are lots of small things. Now the others see this, the one closest to me sees it and takes stuff out of his bag out too. I can't remember what's in it, but I want to write it down, and then remember to do it very accurately, and then I first sort all the things and start to make the list in my head, but so long as I don't know what should be first item I can't write it down.
Later I wrap up presents, this is in a different area, though it must be the same room. Now people are standing. D is there, and maybe N. And things are going on that I don't know about or I forgot. But I can concentrate on this wrapping paper which must also be done, and I can do it. I wrap up one thing and then I see that the wrapping paper is in fact made of cloth and there is a zip too, so I zip it.
Stuff happens that I can't remember. Then later I also make the present of this girl, wrap it up, and once it is wrapped I see there is a zip again, so I zip it, and I see that the t-shirt or whatever it is, has not been wrapped well around the book or whatever, but that is okay. I turn it around, and two more zips are there. The girl had no time for this, that was the reason. So the paper turns into cloth once it wraps something. This was at the dining table at home of parents, last scene of the dream.

2. Mission to Crossroads Aborted

Street of parents. I follow it. I want to go to the t-crossing, at this strange hour. It is New Year's Eve, and night. By the time I get to the house of Stco's parents, I see other people going the same way and I'm annoyed, because I wanted solitude. What's more, they are all slow, because there is a tractor in front. Now we are at the beginning of the field track itself. I can't imagine what the tractor is doing here, but it goes very slow. I could pass on the left and go to the t-crossing, but I don't because I would not be able to get back, certainly not at a time of my own choosing, and also, I would still be bothered by it when I am there, because it must pass there. That was the end of a dream.
The tractor was low and yellow. And a car was waiting too, and someone else.

3. Lion Cat

Inside, a little dark, don't know where. Bale is there, and her cat V too. And I see the cat and she is much bigger and has the manes of a lion, almost, but it is still cat like, though I say something about it to Bale. V is very playful which I did not expect and seems very happy. She goes this way and that. And then goes back to her boss, Bale, who sits on a chair.

4. Bad Guys of Maya

Brdk is telling some story. Long table, door on my left, I'm in the middle of the table, people come to my right, they are Spanish, and are exploring Dutch culture, and are looking up something about Maya the Bee, and some other things, such as the Smurfs. And there are three images on the screen, but they can't read the names, so I come closer to inspect, but they are right, you can only read the middle one. I take the images out and they are then figurines. These three are in particular the bad guys of the series. Black. And I try to read the names that are written above them. The one on the left is Silfrpartitem, and at that moment I'm not sure at all if this is right, because there seemed to be so many consonants in the name that I was rather unable to pronounce it. The other on the right was easier, it was Grade, although at first it was something else, which I don't remember.
Joha sits on this table, all the way on the left in the corner, opposite of me.

5. Stones at Sea

Fragment of dream, dark, we are out at the beach, the old friend club, Ande is already near the water, to the right, I am next, the rest stays behind, which should be Bale and Elbe and their partners. I go to the sea. There is first an area with rocks or pebbles. The stones are as big as a fist, all the same size, and almost round or oval, white, or a light colour. I find that curious, which is why I go near and inspect. Not a word is said. I also don't interact with the others.

6. Cold Bath

Maybe hypnagogic. When I wake up I am in bath, but I entered the bath when I woke up first, which was an hour ago, so the water is called. I'm in a room next to the street, and all is open, so not really a room, no roof. I have a television set hung up in the right corner and I watch it. I remind myself to get up and note my dreams. It takes me a real effort to leave the tub.
Once I go out, I am at the foot end of the tub, the room is as small as the bath tub. My white socks are there, but before I put them on I use those to pen down key words to remember the dreams. Then tourists pass by, and they have to pass where I am sitting. I must be naked, but they just pass, and I try to ignore them.
I can't remember what happened next, but it won't be much.

Children's Books

1. Time to Close

Shop, but looks different and is situated elsewhere. Location looks like Diestsestraat, but it is not, maybe the city itself is not Leuven at all. And the shop is bigger, mainly ground floor, all oriented to the street side, windows.
I'm there, Brva is there and Digr and maybe Keva. We've been here the whole day, but it was not a real working day and I have certainly not been working. And by the end of the day, Brva and me sit on a closet or something in the back away from things and have nothing better to do. It is 5.30pm and it is almost time to close, this is the time in the dream that Brva is going home. She and not me, in the dream it is like that, while in reality I stop at 5.30pm.
For a while now she's been hanging around me and can't separate from me and I like that and enjoy it. Quite a long time. All the time she comes close to me. But eventually the dream ends.

2. Saint Nicholas Books

End of a dream. At home, (can't read notes), Hids is there and she has to go somewhere. Other people about, can't remember details. I can go to her house, but I have an appointment of my own and am not inclined to go with her.
At some point there is a young girl, we talk, at some point about sex, this was because of the context, and she was curious, I know her since a long time. She reveals that she does not want to have sex and by saying that she says what she thinks about her friends, lady friends, because they all want sex and are curious about it. But I'm sure she is experienced and she's transcended this.
Then I can't read my notes. Then. Later, in the sofa, this is at the end of the dream, in the living room, I sit all the way on the left, sofa of parents, big one, and she next to me, but I lie down and close her in my arms. This goes quite smoothly and it is nice. Can't read notes.
Other fragment, books about Saint Nicholas. I don't know how this connects to the rest of the dream. This is in a totally different place, waiting for someone. I sit alone at a table, not my house. I keep busy, afternoon, and try to figure out a task that someone gave me with these many children's books, for different ages, which I only see later. Light. Small children table and chairs too.
Later outside, shopping street. Other people or a woman or children or a family, or all those different people come in, though not crowded. Can't remember the rest well.

Two Storms

1. Flood

Pesl. Land (?).
Blond fury, lady, and Pese.
Apocalyptic dream type, apocalyptic atmosphere. Storm. There is a writer, or writing, but doomed to die. He comes especially for me. And he takes me and someone else with him.
We go outside. Dark. It is storming, raining, and some kind of flood. We are being disturbed (maybe this was a little before, inside).
Digr. Outside, water is channeled. On my own I go ahead, there is nothing left of the land, all is flooded, but I look and see how far I can go into the water while still touching land, and that is quite far. I am all alone out here and it is beautiful, but apocalyptic. The water is killing the land. These are ponds, so man made, to channel the water, but some of the water is different, and black. And they are patches in the landscape. Like a tongue, the shape I mean.
At the very end of where I can go there is the trunk of an old tree, very large, has been taken down, only the stump is left, but the roots look firm. This wood has been half into the water all this time, and I see that it starts to break down, becomes soft. I would suspect rot because of the water, and fear the tree will not last, even if it is only this stump. It will rot just like everything else.
Even the water itself, it is so far from civilization that it is lethal. That is the whole point.
Maybe later in the dream, and behind the water landscape and with Digr. There are tracks of rubber, as if roads, they serve as roads, most go to the right, but there is a small one to the left. A little gray purple, is what they look like. As if used a lot. I know how to use them, though this is alien to what we know. At this point all the tracks come together, but it is more like this that they leave from here. And most have the habit of taking the right one, while I opt for the left, but I am on my own. Possibly, because I go others will follow.
These tracks serve to transport humans quicker, one track runs a longer way than the others, this is a digital track. So-called.
The whole thing symbolizes decadence and the end of the world. Later I go back inside. And Mother is there and mocks me saying: "that man, or writer, has come from so far, especially for you". And I say yes, because I want to affirm it. And I even elaborate saying: "the spirit of the river said that we can expect another storm and it will keep raging until sand, or dirt, will fall from space." And I see what the latter things means. Whirlwinds of sand come down from the darkness of space in funnels to earth.
Then I can't read my notes because I wrote over them. River god is a girl (?), says that she will help us by ... holding back a long time. Until end of the year. That was the deadline.
End of the dream is that she sits down on me in the sofa, which is erotic, and I am unsure, don't know how to act, whether to act.

2. Champagne Table

Train. We arrive somewhere, I guide a girl and a man. At a table.
Tables are set in a row in the hallway, like this is a fair, all tables on the same side, and grey, big, industrial. We talk in English. The man in front of me certainly speaks Dutch, but I am not sure about the girl, which is why I talk English, so that we all understand each other. I am mainly talking to the girl, who is on my right, we are with our back to the hall itself, look at the wall. The man sits opposite of me, long hair, is into metal and maybe a heathen. He wears a pendant and when I look at it I think it resembles a Thor's Hammer, but it is more complex. I assume he is asatru, and he does not say much, but I don't say much to him either. The girl is young and needs much explaining. I am the one talking the whole time, almost. Both are unfamiliar to me, but we are assigned to each other. One table is to my right, but all the others are on the left, because the right is where we entered.
At some point I start saying something and because I just looked at his pendant he thinks I was going to say something about that, and he takes it shows it and starts to say something about it, but I was saying something else, so the moment passes. And I don't go back to it.
We are looking for a place to sleep, this will be in the hallway itself. All the others are better informed and are further down the hallway, maybe they know what is happening. I stay here. I know rather well what is happening. We got some stuff also, lots of which is champagne, and I drink from it, but the two others don't because they don't like it. But more bottles arrive, they come in cardboard boxes and other kinds of containers of which you don't think it is champagne, but when I check I'm sure. And I don't know where this comes from, it belongs to the table. The man on the table on our right sees this and smiles, because we are in an abundance of champagne, while usually it is the other way around. I ignore him.
There is also a glass bottle and this one has cacao, but it must be old, because it has been coloured yellow and is transparent. I don't trust it, but these two want it. 
When it is time to sleep, I start to imagine things with the girl, thinking about the future, how we will be close together and talk and be so close that our lips will almost touch, and I can kiss her. But none of this is real, it is only in my mind what I imagine the future in my dream is like. I show her the other rooms.
Back in the hallway I show the girl the other rooms because it is time to look for a place to sleep, and we were assigned to that one table, but if you don't go all the way you don't know what you're missing, so I lead her. Most groups are by five. And at the end of the hall is a room to the left, and we enter but it appears to be some sort of bathroom, and there are only men in it. I realize I'm mistaken and shuffle back.
Then the scene shifts a bit, because I am alone now, but this is still the same building, which might now be a ship, and I am in the centre of it, not the side where the hallway was. But since I walked the length of the hallway I enter this common main room from the back. I go to the front. There are different floors, like steps, and when I come to the front, it is very posh and I see the entry, and I look around me, and somewhere on my right now I see my family, parents and aunt D and uncle B and maybe their son and family. But I don't go there immediately, though I will.
That is when I see D&S, arriving, and I go to them first, though it was my plan to go sit with the family. D&S sit at the first available table, and I follow, though I saw a girl, blond, she has papers that remind me of work, no they are the exact same papers, like List always carries around, but I don't go to her, since I am now with D&S and I sit down, eager to also see my family.
Then I see a young girl in red and white in a sofa. I recognize her from the train, and I go sit next to her. There is a lot of red in the interior. When I sit down next to her she walks away from me. Then I go back to the table of my brother.

3. Ray Seven

Something about the seven rays. According to the dream Ray 7 is dominant nowadays, since a couple of hundred years, and is the only one active which explains this and that, and will be the only one for thousands years to come, which also explains a lot. And I am not too unhappy, since it is the ray of magic.

Time for Cleaning

1. Wrestling

In the morning. Family, in the couch, where I live, I am on the right, on the side of the seat, and just got up and wear strange clothes, because my arms are covered, but my body is not, though I am wearing trousers. Mother is behind, but in the couch all the cousins sit, among which A. The couch is my bed.
Other fragment of same dream, maybe earlier. I have to clean the room of our parents. Maybe my brothers have to help too. There are twigs, fairly large ones, on the floor, dried, because they are lying there since last Christmas. There has been no cleaning since then, now I have to do it. There is also sand on the floor. Bedroom of parents. I have a broom. Other stuff on the floor (can't read notes).
Joja gets up, is awake, and he wants to chop wood. I go away, something with apples, N is there. Apples are an offering.
Someone, maybe Joja, is still looking around for a lift home.
Looking for something on the internet. I see that my mails are public, this is my computer, but other people are checking the web now, but I see my mails are still there, they appear automatically, when you access internet. I panic at first, but then leave the boys to their doings, they will not look at it.
Morning, I sit together with Nela and Niru, or maybe Niru was someone else first and had the name Bernard, though I'm not sure, it might have been Si (Siph?). It is June. It is almost Nela's birthday. And Niru bought an umbrella for her, which is Nela's favourite. He says it out loud where she is standing, jokingly, and she can hear it, but it comes to no surprise. I think it is a bit strange to do that, but both of them seem to understand each other. You can't see the umbrella, and it is not there, so she will have to wait for it until it is her birthday. And who knows what she will get. The umbrella is long and dark red. Nela has a collection of umbrellas.
Niru wants to buy something from my closet, it is all the way on the top shelf. I opened the closet, white, long, slender. Can't remember what happened next. Something about wrestling? We wrestle. This is because he started doing some martial art stuff, and I remember mine and we want to share these experiences. I win anyway. Two or three different take downs. I get him down in a 'floor lock' and at that point Niru is bare breasted. Can't remember the rest.
Something against pain. Side effect, maybe of medication. Pocket of pants broken, maybe because of the fight, which was friendly, this inside in a location I'm not familiar with. Light. Public, but at the same time removed from the main.

2. Bomb, Neighbour's House, Puppet Baby

Possibly connected with previous dream. Maybe a sword. 
How to make a bomb. There is some recipe, I see a list, and it has 24 parts, and I have to check it. The sheet with the lest is very structured and detailed, and the overview is good. Suddenly we are in the hangar itself, that is to say, outside, but there is a hangar 360° about us, we stand in the entrance, but more to the centre, and in the middle is also some building, so I don't see all of the area, but all the stuff is stored in this big place. And so I see many things that are needed for a bomb, but I look at the first item on the list and look about me to see if I can find it, I want to do this orderly. And after a quick glance I see it right in front of me. There are also prices on the list, but the bomb itself totals less than all the separate parts together, the total is on the top of the list.
The first thing on the list is polystrene, but it is black. Top shelf right in front. But the first place I looked was to my left, where I see hammers and tools, metal and lead.
Brother D. At first at home something, then N does also (what?), lots of people in the house. We also pass by H&B. From the backyard to the front, their house only at the side of our house. Brothers and some other people come with us. The rest stays, has no business with this, because the neighbour's house is not our house. When we come in front I see an underground garage. Also many things have been removed, and access to our house from theirs is made easier in many places, whereas earlier this was not the case. We are giving some girl a tour. Clair Beau.
Back inside.
Food. Girl on my lap, this is a child. This is in the living room of parents. D is holding her first, then she is being undressed, and looks like a real human, while before she looked like a doll though everyone treated her as real, what I thought was odd. Now she's naked, maybe family. Bron?
Night. Cleaning. There are some leftovers which we eat, rice is one of them, but at least two other things. We eat these before they (who are they?) leave for holidays. There was also dimsum, and some salty pie which I had, very nice. Light, white. Not a real room but in between rooms, hallway maybe, but with a window or bar where you can stand and have food.
There is also a fragment where I own a chain, necklace with rubies, though they are very transparent, yellowish and with iron inside, and the iron is rusting. The string hangs from the ceiling in the living room, over the table. It hangs so low that it is right in front of me. The stones are big. Another such thing hangs to the right of it. It is done with tape, and this on the bottom of the strings, so if they touch the table, it will stick, but I don't allow it, look good that it does not, but it will not. It is not so elastic. It will stick to a spider (?).

3. Twelve Armies, Offerings and Times

Going home. Maybe bicycle. Bridge. There is a fight, between Greeks and Trojans.
Twelve something, and four behind (?). It is twelve months and hours of fighting something, maybe sun.
The numbers refer to armies and to offerings and to times.
All of this has been neatly prepared and calculated like in the book (which book?).

4. Roof Party

There is a fragment where I am on a roof at a private party, something academic, dark, outside, bar with food, you have to queue, I am waiting. Lots of people. At some point, Heha enters, and I had not expected to see anyone familiar. This will hinder me being totally free or feeling free.
