1. Smash the Window, Chinese Dragon Parade, Earth Planet
Light, unknown place, city, I follow someone else who lives here and go into the house, which takes us behind the city. I now can't remember who the person was, maybe one of my brothers, or maybe a lady.
When we entered this house, this consisted of two adjacent rooms, large, not very tidy, they were still working in the second, and there was a large window as if for a French window, and the person living here, maybe it was Inla2, had already been saying on the way in that the window pane that has just been set in a few days ago was not to her liking. Something was wrong with it, or it was just dirty, and she wanted something to be done about it, and when we came in we could easily see that the big window pane was dirty, but I saw no reason to have it replaced, it looked solid.
Then Inla2 or whoever it was went for it before we could do anything and kicked the window and I understood she would smash it. When I see her do this, I stay where I am, other people were in the room, possibly one of my brothers and someone else still.
I could not understand why she did that, but again and again she kicks the window in the same place, and she has trouble breaking the glass. In the meantime another person comes in from the other door opposite where we came in from, so this is from the back, the door on the right, which leads in the other or more secret or private part of the city. He is a man, and crosses the room with the window and goes to the first room and remains there as if he lives here, for all I know that is true. Inla2 does not care and continues smashing the window. I think that is wrong and she should not be doing that while there are witnesses, because she will not be able to make the insurance company pay, and also this will make my brother and my accomplices.
At that point or a little before Inla2 also went to the first room which is smaller and has more furniture in it, and I see what she is going for, because there is a certain piece of furniture like a bar stool, but with green vilt or whatever, and I understand she will use this to smash the window. And she does.
Slowly the window is breaking, and I can't stand it now while this other person is witnessing things, and I start to leave, also because I know this house is owned by Paon, who is my cousin, and I want to go looking for him in this back part of town, and at that point possibly Dohe is already in the room, but when I go for this door on the right, leave through it I see Paon come this way. I can't remember well what I do, since a little later in the dream I am further down the road alone.
This is not really a road at all behind the door, but it is a corridor, as wide as a normal road with pavements, all white, but covered with a roof, not many people are in it, certainly not at this end, because it has only this house at the end, but when I walk the length of it then it turns to the left and from there mouths into the city again and lots of people are there because there is some celebration planned of which I am vaguely aware.
So from about halfway the corridor where it turns left I start to go against the current of people moving in.
Lots of light and many people and all expecting something to happen, there is someone telling me what it is all about my I don't remember who or what, so I continue. To the left the corridor continues but there is also a platform there which is like a big dais, and on top of this or maybe even on the floor in that area are tracks like those for trains, but there are many, all belonging to different trains and routes I know and in addition they go crisscross and overlap and I can't see where they are going and I try not to step on them but go over them, but it makes crossing this place very difficult, later in the dream I have to cross here again and am totally confused about what to do, because these tracks are real.
I go forward, there are more Chinese people here and they will be doing a parade of some kind. After a while I see the shape of a black dragon, I assume carried by people, but very big, and this is the first wagon of many, though indeed the dragon might just be moving on its own, it is very close to the ceiling, which is rather high. All the Chinese people are watching. That is more or less the point I am turning back, because I know this is not a good time to go all the way into town and breathe the free air again. So I retrace my steps, which is more difficult because more people are know here.
I go via the dias because it is shorter and less crowded. In the meanwhile around the corner they are laying other things on the floor, big plates, white, with lines on them, coloured lines, and they represent things and form paths as well, and of course I don't want to walk on those either since I don't want to be in the way, and moreover, people are still kneeling to put things in place but it is already covering a big area.
I don't remember exactly what happens next, but on my return way I go a different way back, not to Paon's house but there was another route, which is out in a field, but I got there because something in the dream changed or I got talking with people and this changed the surroundings, because the next thing I see is a planet alone in the darkness of space, yet we see it as if it hovers there.
I am the first to see it and nobody else does it but the reason I see it is indeed because some talk or other was about something and this made me aware of the planet.
I observe it. At least I am away of the main crowd now, and the atmosphere here is very different. The planet is covered in clouds, so dark you can't really see what is beneath it, but that is not true entirely because I can spot the light that the planet emits, and what breaks through the clouds is very bright and smouldering, more like golden yellow, and I know it is electricicty, and possibly something else like plasma, and I am almost thinking this is like a sun, but it can't be, because the planet is earth size and no more, so I stick with the idea of planet. Things move in its atmosphere and it is a wonder to look upon. I tell the few others who are near me and look in the same direction what I see and that it must be electricity, I explain this to them, because obviously they don't see anything.
But that is where this part of the dream ends.
2. Someone else's Poodle in my Couch
Later another dream continued the story though in some other place, but it must sure have been a different REM phase already. But it felt like a continuation.
At the very end, when I came home in my apartment, there were two lap dogs in my sofa and on the table, and some other animal that was mine, because the two dogs were not mine but of some old lady that I knew, though I can't imagine why she would leave her dogs with me, it means she is not at home, but temporarily lives in my apartment, though I can't remember agreeing to that. I'm not fond of that old lady.
Yet when I sit in my sofa, to the left, and things are a bit in disarray, which I find disturbing because this must be the work of the other person, I pet the dog closest to me which is a poodle, and I scratch it on the head, which feels good enough and I don't give it any more thought. The other dog is on the table. Dark inside. Nothing else happens.
Residue.
ReplyDeleteDream 1. Inla2 and window too are residue of the castle weekend. Planet possibly residue of the other two sf dreams. Window is also residue of what N said about mermaids yesterday and showed a film.
Dream 2. Poodle residue of seeing a hairdresser for dogs in town yesterday.
Interpretation.
Dream 2. I am always imagining in my head how it would be if Chwe moved in, yet the two dogs might be associated with Mith, because I saw her in the summer with her two small dogs. Who the old lady is I don't know.
Dream 1. The first room with the velvet green refers to the castle, while the other room refers to the back to normal world I suppose. Black Dragon is a stance in taiji sword, but I don't know what it refers to. Other dragons would have promenaded behind that.
Interpretation.
ReplyDeleteDream 1. Chinese parade might refer to the fact that I've been doing nothing else than watching episodes of Naruto today, and there was even one that reminded me of the electric planet.
Dream 2. The homecoming might have been an anticipation to today's homecoming, and I felt rather lonely today, since there is no one here and I've had a weekend together with my brothers. The poodle might symbolize my thoughts going out to Chwe, but I did not make contact. I tried skype, but I could not even log in.
Interpretation.
ReplyDeleteDream 1. The dirty window might refer to the cars that got dirty because of the rain and so on, on the way back.
