1. Conference in Leuven
A talk in Leuven.
I am visiting Alth and Mith2. Elbe is there too.
Then in Leuven, I am queuing up for attending a talk. Something about heathenry (?). The place is one of the small connecting streets between the Naamse and the Schapenstraat.
Someone has to go to customers. From Leuven to the park. I know something something and point the way. But in the dream I can't remember the name of the place.
We are near the beguinage. According to notes something about lunch, and a conference is on at the moment. There is chocolate spread, ham, cheese and salami, and I am thinking there is nothing very healthy there. All this on dishes. The sandwiches that go with them you have to prepare yourself, the bread is there, slices of it, but unusually big. White bread. All is too tidy for me. I don't want any of it, but I will take it because there is nothing else.
At some point there is no longer bread. Light, this all inside. More rooms further op. I am late.
I'm sure the sandwiches were prepared for people to have lunch who attend the lectures. The location of this place reminds me of the restaurant where I have lunch, and the halls for the talks is more down the street.
2. Bicycle Parking
Same dream. Later darker, outside, I park my bicycle, this is when I am leaving. I don't lock my bicycle, but I go back to check on it, because I am a little worried, but then I decide to go without locking it anyway. There are different buildings, tours are being given the whole afternoon. I don't know where to begin, this is because I am late and alone, though people I know were coming, my age, and professors too. Down towards Schapenstraat are halls and lectures, but up also, this one is some way away, and possibly a church, which reminds me of the Saint Michael's church.
But it is below where I find everybody, small alley, light. There is Vidc, and possibly his comrades. I stay here a long time.
Later, this is when I leave and when it is dark, I go to the place where bicycles are parked, and it is a difficult place, because you have to crouch, it is a place between the street and the houses, and halfway underground, and roofed with concrete though not completely, but it means you cannot stand upright.
Something about Suske and Wiske. Something something.
3. Empty Leg
Same dream still.
Later, towards the end of the dream I go back below, and find Toha and I believe all the talks are over but people just hang around here, they sit all alongside the wall, to my right. I join them.
Then someone points out an old wound of mine on my leg. You can see both my legs, naked, though I was wearing pants. I know I have this wound, but I had not cared about it anymore, because it has been a week since and it has not bothered me anymore, and I thought it was healed.
Now, when this person points me to it, I see that the wound is green, the flesh is gone, the wound is rotten through and through. And when I look better I see that even the flesh on the inside of my leg is gone, my leg is empty, and I am in a slight panic. Not really, but I do recognize I should do something about it. Also I realize I cannot stand on this leg anymore, so I want someone to bring me to the hospital. I look about me pleading, but no one sees it or responds, I call 'help' to Toha, and maybe to the other person too, and hope they will hearken to my call, because I don't want to do it myself, that's it. But that is where the dream ends, because I called out for help, even if it was only a very shy call.
Thurisaz. This should come as no surprise since I had contact with Dore yesterday, even if only via facebook.
ReplyDeleteAll this was one dream, the last one of the night. I did not intend to remember my dreams, but took notes when after a while being awake in my bed some of the memories started to flow back.
Residue.
Dream 3. The old leg wound is a residue of reading this of Burrich's leg in the book by Hobb.
Dream 1. The talks and conference is a residue of London this weekend. The bread and spreads might be a residue of breakfast of castle weekend or of that of P&R.
Interpretation.
Dream 1. When I checked my emails I saw Phpa announced my coming to London on facebook, for his heathen group.
Dream 2. I exceptionally took my bike to work because I was late, and thought about how to arrange this when I had to go to the dentist after work, and I took my bike with me there too, and locked it but just against the wall, which was not the right place to park a bicycle.
Dream 3. I told this dream to Keva. I explained that this may refer to something I thought was healed and did not look to anymore and that now it seems that it has only gotten worse, while I should have tended to it immediately, but I don't know what it was. At the same time I associate this with my going to the dentist, hole in my tooth.
