Dancing Stars

1. Gay Sex

Hall, a quiz is going on, space, reading a comic book. I let it read by someone else (over my shoulder?).
Other dream. Sex. First with a woman, and then someone else's turn, but it is a man, and I promised I would, so I can't back out now, and I begin, and he enjoys it very much, but I am not really happy about it and want to stop it after a short while. This is outside, but some sort of temple complex, ruins, beside a wall, and on a wall, and stairs everywhere, some kind of transition zone. And the woman disappeared behind me and the man came from in front of me, and I stay put. And the man is an older man than me, and he is famous, an actor, I recognize his face, still I don't like him. I don't like his character.

2. Lapis Lazuli

Home of parents, but is at the same time a shop, and this function predominates, so I don't recognize the place as a house. There is an Englishman who is the person who initiates a whole chain of events, which makes out the dream.
Looking for a book. Something about relationships. There is a very relaxed atmosphere and the house looks much bigger than it is in reality.
To get down in the basement, you have to go outside first, then via the terrace there is a stone entry (which leads down?).
At the same time, and at a certain point I am there, diggings are being done at the neighbours' place, this is where H&B used to live. Close to the border with our piece of land, we are digging in the earth, and I am the one with my boots and a shovel that is in the pit, working. I can feel the dirt around me. I recognize the feeling. Brfr is there. In the meanwhile I am naked.
This nakedness did not happen at once but in stages, at first I only was without shirt, then without something else, and so on, so that eventually I was stark naked at the moment I was digging this hole. I don't mind at all, but I am actually feeling a sense of freedom and comfort.
The digging at the neighbours' place is connected to their basement. Am I digging their basement?
Hafr comes and stands there. I am in the earth, alone still, but before me other people were working here.
I find something down there. A piece of wood, art, and I say that it is edible. So I hand it over to Hafr and makes her eat it. I am convinced you can eat it. But then her mother comes at her side and keeps an eye out and she does not like what she sees, and she things the thing I found is disgusting. (Hafr must have eaten it before her mom arrived).
Later on I have to go back to this hole, this might be in another dream, or later in this same dream, I don't know anymore.
Later also, parents are there, they buy a certain book, and I want one of those. That is the moment that I am again inside of the house, at the side of the neighbours and looking out through the window and at the same time it feels like I am outside, or there is no roof, and I am alone, although consciously I know there are people behind me but they certainly don't pay attention to me. And I look at the night sky, because it is dark already, and I watch the stars and see that there are many out, but there is something funny about them. Some look very close, and there are too many, they are too bright, and in clusters, and the clusters consist of blue stars and golden stars, and then I see them move as well, on the spot, and now they seem very close, as if on the firmament, outer layer of the atmosphere, almost within reach. Upper right corner of my sight and I keep looking. And one clusters becomes very alive, and on the spot where they are they dance, move around each other, and the blue ones and golden ones mix or change into each others colours, and it is a wonderful sight, and it has something spirited about it.

3. Cosmic University Refectory

Refectory of school or university. Long dream of which I only remember fragments of the last part. I am with a club, they study here. I am visiting and not informed about the local customs and I feel very out of place and follow my friends everywhere, and one of the guys is telling me the whole time how things work, the group I'm in is mixed, and first we enter from somewhere, but I catch the dream only when we are halfway, but we already carry trays, and then at the end turn left, everywhere we pass tables, and most are occupied. We passed our table in the beginning where I became conscious of the dream, but we had to go to this other end so I follow them. Something something. Then looking for a place, then things become complicated, because there is some sort of rule that is obeyed naturally by the students and without question is that when you change level you can no longer sit with your old level but you move on to the next group and sit with them, you never see your old friends again. My friends explain all this, and this is happening at the same time to one of their friends. In the meanwhile we go back to sit at our table, I observe the other tables, and they are all very tight groups. In the meanwhile I have also worked out why this is so, because within a group every one of the planets must be represented, or at least everyone is represented by a planet, and I get the information intuitively about three of them, but only remember one, which is the last, who is Saturn. This I remember, though I don't know who this was, and I don't know this people from elsewhere or without the dream or even within the dream, because I was only visiting and not a permanent member of any kind.
When we go back to our table, every thing is grey, light, greenish maybe, but light and grey, very clean, orderly, I am reminded of the earth dream of before and I say this in this dream. I am reminded of this because there is something about the way I should sit at the table, I see the floor is a bit weird and the stones are weird, instead of a real floor, and I have to put my feet or legs through, and it gives me the sense of digging in the earth. I have to do something like shoving my feet in an aperture of stones in the floor to be able to sit.

4. Asteroid at Midnight

In the dream it is the middle of the night, and I wake up and I get up and go to the kitchen. In the dream I know perfectly well where I am but I don't know the place from reality. Phpa is in the kitchen, we are stay with the three of us in this house, we are renting it for the weekend, special occasion because something is supposed to happen. And Fras is also here. There is also another woman.
Phpa is up and working in the kitchen. The kitchen is big and simple and cold, I mean it looks indifferent. And when Phpa sees me he thinks that is the time to start cooking, a good moment now I am here, because I will surely be hungry. He is making mashed potatoes. And he offers me a glass of warm water, hot water, which is used for tea, but there is no tea. I would expect him to offer me tea, but now he decidedly gave me just the hot water.

I ask the woman who is there whether she is good at running and she says yes. I suppose this has something to do with what we are here for. And she is standing somewhere else, I can't remember if she moved. She was first behind me and now in front of me to my left. Yet I hold her. This is when she is behind me, no, I get up from my chair, I go to her when she was behind me and I stand next to her and I suddenly hold on to her, she cares not for this, but it helps me. I need this especially to be able to sleep again, to get rest, to get my peace, so I do this anyway even if it is unconventional, because I don't know her, but I know her kind of energy. She is taller and a bit older than me. She heals me in a way, but after a while she starts to collapse, never so bad that she actually falls, but she gets a headache and I know I have to support her first and then let go of her.
At that point the mashed potatoes are ready and Phpa wants to give each of us a share. That is about the time when Fras awakes and joins us in the kitchen, sits down. There is a particular reason why we are all awake. Something woke us. And the hypotheses that we are all thinking is whether there would be an asteroid to be seen outside in the sky, or passing by, or heading for earth. Something like that would be happening, but we can't look outside, but the collective feeling points in that way and I suppose that is also the reason why we are here in the first place.

Answer the Lady

1. Apparition of a Girl

I'm in the car, in the back seat on the right. N is driving. D is next to him. We are in the street where my parents live and going away from home.
A story is being told. There is a girl that reminds me of Dore. She is telling the story. She is outside of the car and hovering with her face towards us, and seemingly connected to the same space in which we are sitting, because she moves with us at the same rate and with the same comfort. Maybe at the same time we are somewhere else, stationary.
At some point in her story she suddenly speaks my name and this is to get my attention, but most of all to stress that what she is saying is meant for me, and after a while also to point out that what she is doing she is doing for me and I should do something for her as well. She speaks my name again, but louder. And then louder again so that I am really caught by her voice as if she commands me and I fear that my brothers hear me, because that is embarrassing. Though still I feel I have to bring up the courage and say something back, and best of all with the intention of going out on a date, so I out loud say something back that is very dubious, and she gets the picture, and I am fearing that my brothers might have heard me or may think weird things about me, because I don't want them to know this aspect about me, but at that point it seems they have not even heard her voice at all and that is when I start to think that maybe the whole thing was perceived for me personally, and my brothers did not even hear my answer to the lady.
This was a very strong feeling when she said my name right to me so loud.

2. Past Test

There is a situation where everyone who is in my dream is preparing for taking a test and everyone is nervous because it will start any minute now, but I don't connect with the atmosphere at all and I am not nervous, and I don't know what all the fuss is about. But the thing is that the test they are about to take is something I've done in the past already. 

3. Inro writes a Text

Shop. List is there, and also the salesman of the comic books. This person, or List (?), is also informing about a special day that is about to happen, because everyone is talking about this day, and she has no idea.
Other fragment. Lids is there and Kivo is also there, two main characters. I have them on the phone. Shop environment. Colleagues. There is a small piece of text, Inro wrote it, ..., I read it, it has potential but you can tell she has not done this a lot.
Spirited dream?

4. Spoiled Kid

What shall we wear?
We are all at table. Pebr and Ande and Elbe and Bale. First we watch a video, among other things about ??? and then we eat food, and something else.
There is rice porridge, but it looks not like it should be, though I think a sweet tooth would still like it, but I stay away from it. I met this dish twice in the dream and it confused me, because the ingredients were all replaced by other things.
At some point there is some discussion going on. And something I say about the son of Pebr and Ande, that he is too spoiled. And some agree, but it is hard to tell the parents, but this is a time for truth.

5. Coded Text

I understand the words. A woman asks if I can understand the words. After that she explains the code herself. (Maybe linked with dream 3).

6. Rice Pudding

Something about Brussels. Banana. Rice pudding , with chocolate chips. Something about disease, and something else.

Elephants on the Background

1. Fantasy World

Something about runes to win a girl. 
I am self confident.
Walking in a circle. Three paces forward and then add a rune. And later taking two runes away.

Something about a quest. On my way with a group of people, like pathfinders. We are in a fantasy world. Certain quality, depth, green of trees. Elephants, brownish, by the trees, a lot together, on a plateau, this is their world.
I am teaching a small kid something about spirits. He asks me whether all the dead come from the earth. He question is rooted in the fact that he can see them. I give explanations, but confirm what he says. In the meanwhile we go downstairs, stone stairs, maybe somewhere outside. Unknown place.

There are two kids that travel along with me the whole time, though they are in the background all the time. Because of their ability to remain unseen I want to unmask them, because they are spirits. (These are spirits, I can feel it). You are only safe with spirits when you unmask them is the underlying message.
They are preparing an ambush for us, something, but we can bribe them with gifts, in this case books. They like that. They must be the spirits. (The dreams were very spirited).
So we continue on our quest. To the main city (?), and they follow us. They want to serve us. That means, they must have become attached to us. The city is full of people. Short life (?) (of spirits?).

2. Hiding for Barbarians

We travel with horses, and maybe on horseback, through the fields, nature, countryside. There are different groups and all have their own ambitions. Murders. Fighting. I fight one against all. When this happens, I am fighting with the toy swords, katana. And I hit everybody. On the body, and I count the body points that they loose: two, two, two, and so on. Group of people.
This is almost the end of a dream. I was alone with someone at first, in the field, away from the other people and somewhat hiding, I did not want to be seen by the others because we were not good friends, yet I wanted to be in the same place, possibly because I had some work to do there too, that can only be done there, which is the reason why they are all here too, and I suppose in the past we were all one big group in peace.
Then when they finish, they see me. I was hiding by a tree and a shed in the middle of the field, but at the end I also come out and go to the pathway. That is where I meet them. I am closer to the exit anyway. That is my advantage.
Maybe I was painting by the way.

More on the same dream.
There is a troupe of barbarians. It is me they want. This is a game. Sword. Something else. I hide. I finish them. Also a board game, and brother D is there.

3. Fund Raising

Raising money for something (I can't read my notes). Midnight, home.
Other fragment, at table (can't read my notes).

4. Shop Balloons

In the shop. Liha and Digr are on the side, on my left, and talking, so not paying attention to customers. I should not be working today, but I am, so I do my best, but I am not informed about the latest news.
A customer comes and she has a big straw bag full of balloons, not blown yet, this is the other way around than usual, because we usually give balloons to the kids. Now she wants to hand over one to me. I accept at last, taking a blue one, there are plenty of that colour, and I remember them from before, but nowadays we don't have this colour anymore. I try to blow it where I stand.
Later, the telephone rings. I take the phone, because the others are all talking or pretending to be busy. (I can't read my notes). Something China? Something something.
Light.

Black Scorpion

1. The Meat Deliverer

I am at a place, street or square, van parked, yellow, one side is open and stacks of red meat are piled there. The driver delivers these to one of the houses, and I watch. The van is almost empty. He places the packets in a freezer, that maybe stands outside and is not so big.
In the meanwhile there is something about Jommeke, but I can't remember what.
I know the manager of the shop (maybe I mean the boss of the driver).
The dream continues with the same van, parked one space in front, and now I also see how the driver opens the van, because it is the whole side of the van that he opens, which is remarkable. But I see him only open the lower part, and yet the whole van is open. It works like a door, only it is long. And then he does the same as before, and I realize this, and am not interested.

2. In Between Cities

Cycling, we pass the windgat, which is between Leuven and Herent. This time I come from Leuven (I have had many dreams like that, often I come from Herent, sometimes from Leuven). And there are already a lot of people out there. I can't remember what happened there.

3. Book Fair in Leuven

City of Leuven. Light, day. I am going to a certain place, intently, and on my way I meet Pesl, and he comes along, and after a while I don't know if I follow him or he follows me. We enter the building, which I suppose is the old school, from the back, though it can also be the city hall (location of the school in that case), and there is some kind of book market going on. I suppose that is why I wanted to go here. I point out the books that are ??? (can't read notes). And I make a comparison with London (?).
Pesl is impressed and I also tell him the latest news, which is that both De Slegte and Johannes Boekhandel are closed, but are also torn down. I see this in my dream when I say or remember it. The buildings are torn down, in the middle of the city, bricks. At that point my brother N is also here, but I can't remember his role. Telling him this news has something to do with coming to this book place.
I think the dream continues beyond this point. Our ways separate, when we go outside again. But I can't remember the details.

4. Conversation about Arabic

Maybe the same dream?
I am at a table, in front of me are Bale and Krvh, they sit down as well. I sit on the right, across of me is Krvh and next to her, on my left, is Bale. This is an interesting set-up, because I've had something with both girls, yet I try not to let that get to me and stay calm. There is food on the table.
There is a discussion. At some point the discussion turns to language as Bale, who might change to Ande at some point, says she never worked out to read Arabic. Then she and Krvh talk about this, and Bale admits she only did one year of Arabic and never even managed to learn the alphabet. I say that must have been frustrated, sensing that she would otherwise have made good progress because she seemed to understand the grammar. I say this because I want to partake of the conversation, but that is not a good idea, I should have let them talk among each other. Then I point out in a joking way to Krvh something about having her read the Russian parts, (I really can't remember why, but there must have been something that needed to be read), because she actually knows Russian. But I think I back out again when she complies.

5. Black Scorpion

First I am somewhere, with N.
Later I go to the bathroom, I don't mean the toilet.
Then I start cleaning the place, but I don't know what place this is, but it is partly my responsibility to clean up, especially because that which I need to clean up is something I left here. I take the bundle, all is already wrapped in newspaper. But when I take it up from the wall where I put it for a moment, something drops, has fallen out of the bundle, because it is of course not sealed tight.
Something small and black, and shiny, drops on the kitchen floor (I don't think this is the kitchen, it is a common room in a place that I don't know) and it is a baby scorpion. It reminds me of having a spider in the kitchen, and I'm thinking, we have had scorpions like this before. And I also think the scorpion looks cute. It is actually beautiful. My brother N also looks at it from where he is standing, because I suppose he is cleaning as well.
So I decide I can't step on it, it must stay alive. That creates the problem of what to do with it, because it is a little frightened and it runs this way and that and I try to get out of the way, but I don't move too much. I am a little afraid of being stung, I don't want that to happen, but I really want the scorpion to stay alive.

6. Ritual Request

Maybe part of the same dream.
Nede, the daughter of Tama, is in trouble. She does everything for her father, but she gets no gratification from him, no sense of recognition, this makes Nede a little depressed.
And another scene. Outside in the garden, at my parents' place. I arrive there, there are many people. I don't see the house in fact, as if the place changed, and the garden slopes down, and I do recognize the shed at the end of the garden, and that is where N and maybe my other brother are busy. But I am in the front part on the left of the house, which may not  be a house at all, but only a wall or something. And this is a passage for people to go from the front to the back, yet I find a place to be on my own.
And I can't remember what I did on that side of the house, but at some point I change to the right side, this is after a guy passes by that is a customer in our shop, young man, taller, and also more voluminous, especially now in the dream, and he has a request which is that he will loose weight, and the request is meant like a wish that he will express ritually, because it seems that this is the kind of thing that is happening here, but it is like a public place where everyone can do this and at the same time it is like a party, as if this is a barbecue for friends. After that, but I did things too, I went to the right side, and there is a piece of terrace there that is private and that is where I set up my altar, in fact there is a big place already reserved a prepared as an altar and I decide to use that. I thought this was private and I look out at the garden, but when this other man walks back from whatever he was doing, he looks straight back to me, even over that long a distance, and sees me, and I think I'm not that private after all. But he only nods in silent agreement and continues, because he has now done his job or what it is he came for and now has time for party. And I continue with my business. I am at the side of the second garage. I sit down and do this ritual.
I also have to put outside the papers, garbage I suppose.
There is also a scene in which I struggle with three papers, with notes, and I am in the bath now and the papers get wet, but they stay firm and you can still read the text. I know this can be done, only I should take care that I don't drown the papers too often. This is important work, and private.
Afterwards I go down to the shed where my brother is, and he is there with Brfr. And I help them, or I think about helping them.

7. Holding Hands

Something about greeting cards for Valentine, but they are funny, I think this may still be part of dream 3. I think they're funny, but someone I don't know remarks that the girl you give it too will not be amused. One of the cards says: happy Valentine, and instructs that the card must be given on 6 April, and the date is shown on the card as well. I think it is funny. This is a book fair, one big place inside, two section, we come from the second section.
There are two girls I am with and I like both, but I like one of them more. The one is a tall girl with long curly dark hair, the other is not so tall and has blond hair and I fancy her more. But she goes away for a moment to do something and that leaves me alone with the brunette. She also goes somewhere, to a corner, to do something, but this is still in the hall and after some thought I go to her, because I have to wait for the other girl anyway, and I get close with the brunette, which is my second choice. I touch her arm lightly and stand very close to her, but she touches back and we are soon enough holding hands and it feels natural.
I have no idea when we can expect back the other girl, but hand in hand we walk out of this hall and go to the other place, first we go outside and then turn left, walk the length of the building and behind go upstairs and find the roof top, which is open for the public. Other people are there. At this point I am thinking about the other girl and how I want her and that she would now turn back and that I maybe should not hold hands with the brunette because that would not be well received by the blond. But the brunette and I talk about this and we both agree that it feels very natural to hold hands, and she says she has not had this with anybody recently, and I have to admit the same goes with me, and this is in fact what I was looking for. And even if I have not held hands with the blond I realize at that moment that if I would it would still be a little untrue, even if there was a deep connection. I also kiss the brunette, but I can't remember when exactly or how it came to pass. This is toward the end of the dream, but I can't remember the actual end.

Spider Key

1. Pool Game

It is the birthday of my brother N, or some other kind of festive occasion why we are all gathered. I surprise him (can't remember how).
He wants to go to a swimming pool and says (something, I can't remember), something about a group of ten girls, they are there, I see them. I say (something like) two is enough, and (something like) to run against (I can't remember the whole sentence right).
At the pool. I'm sure the water was very clear. He says that he follows everything. I hesitate a moment or two but then I enter the water as well.
In the meanwhile the girls are ready to swim and I queue up (?), two or three. Two are in the way of a girl (I can't remember what the notes mean).
I simply swim tracks in the pool. There is also a game going on, which is to find the hidden coach. And this is done by a four legged spider, long legs. I see the spider against a wall, that means I win the game, but I say nothing, because I don't want to get involved. Noticing the game made me notice the spider. There is a hatch, beneath the 'spoon' box, and this is a secret doorway. The spider or its location has something to do with it, but I can't remember what. Light all throughout the dream.
I don't trust this whole thing, yet I find it.
Later when I come back home, there is no more grass on the lawn, because it is too dry.
Early dream. Maybe the first one of the night.

2. Cash Machine Crashes

Something about a goblin (kabouter). Real one. I know and see him all the time, but he hides all the time, and after a while I forget about him.
Also something about time traveling, which was prominent in the dream, but which I also forgot by the end of the dream.
Water.
Something about returning a book. Big book. Something about food.
My dad is here. Eight something.
Then a scene in which I want to withdraw money from a cash machine, the one at the Ladeuze square. I try and it does not work. I don't panic, because this happens all the time, so I try again, confident. Second time takes an even longer time and I am totally helpless. I manage to get my card back and try a third time. At this point, other people want to make use of the machine in the wall, and Dofo is here, too, and the others, such as Vide and Pesl. But this time the machine crashes and the screen itself disappears, there is nothing anymore.
Two people behind me were already there to make use of the machine.

Dark, gaming, two other guys in the room, basement down below, stairs on the right, is where I entered. Screens in front. Sofa in the middle. Purple, green, blue. I know the games they're playing and want to be part of it. A long time I play on my own but always get stuck in the opening of it. Yet I must have played this long ago.

3. Rabbit

Something about Watership Down, the bunnies that is.
Something about a book, Liha, and the same book again, but in a different size.
Eating olives at some point in a dream fragment.

Underground Hoodoo Altar

1. Train to Holland

On the way back from Germany, with the train, first going to Holland, my brothers are with me, especially D. I see the countryside, blue and green, trees. We are outside, stop in between, discussion, uncertain about next step. Something about the borders, Limburg. We follow him, or her? D? Get on the train, food, sausages?
Something about the accent of the people living here. I understand what they're saying anyway, but it is funny. At the same time there is a group old people, inside on the train, and we share the cabin with them, they sit on one side. I don't mind, they're harmless.
This was an early dream, first I remember, first cycle of the night.

2. Candle Magic

Same dream, what happened later in the dream.
Train. Outside. Bale is there, Joja and my mother. I don't like it that Joja is here, because I don't want to be disturbed, and he always makes a fuss or gives comments.
Inside, on one side, I do something on my own, which is burning candles, I have an altar ready here and it is always on it seems, but three of the candles are not burning well and I have to tend them again and again. I go back and relight the wicks. Only three, the two behind are not necessary. The three are the middle, west and south. Bees wax all of them, except maybe the middle one. There is all kinds of stuff on the altar. The altar is on a weird place, like the underground subway station, the rails nearby, a public place. Right next to the stairs, yet I don't think anyone else sees this. Voodoo.

Every time I relight the candles. Joja is nearby, doing something else, like waiting for the train or figuring out which train to take. I think he suggest going to Roma (can't read notes). Anyway, I tell him no, so I stay behind.
Across of the rails I see white animals, maybe like hermelijn, ermine. Many of them, a whole population, they are like animals of another world, they watch, I see them, but there is no interaction. They live there in the dark and wait. Some of them are on the rails.
A girl stays behind too, young, and she is wild. And we connect in some way, and I tear my pants, hinder part, but the whole length of the left leg. And at the end of the dream I sit on the girl (?) or the other way around (I can't read my notes and can't remember). At the same time on the stone stairs, broad, I see Kaco, this is a lucid moment. I cannot let it bother me.
First dream of the night.

3. Training

I'm training to go to the ... (can't read notes), and something about Suske and Wiske, which I now can't remember, but they were like real people, and were in the dream a long time, though only in one scene.
Garage of parents at home. Elite something. Something about a space shuttle, can't remember.
Something something, maybe Great Force (?), spirit (?), teacher, notebook about dreams. And something else I can't read anymore.

4. Take my Job

I'm in the Diestsestraat, noon time, electro shop Expert, which is in the dream all the way at the end of the street, near the station (normally not so far). I go in. Two guys are working there of whom I now they've been working there for a long time, but a new person is also there, a girl, young. Long hair, maybe red? She's new. I have no real business here yet I am here, in my break. This is her first day, but she is being taught, and she will start in July, or September. 
The boss of the shop sees me, he knows me. The shop is empty, but big, and square. He comes and gets me and says I can start in August, because when I enter it seems like I'm looking for a job, but I have to declines, because as he should know I am working. I am surprised he does not take that into account
The parents of the girl are also there, distracted. When I come in I hang my jacket at the wall with the thing for jackets. The girl and her parents see this and they do the same as well. I think they are happy someone showed them. I did not do this on purpose.
I look around, obviously I am well acquainted with the shop and its owners, for what reason I cannot say. When I start to go back I see a wall with books, that interests me, though it is not the kind of book of my interest. All big with hardcover, light, white covers, photographs, interior and so on, art maybe.
Then I will need to go back to my job.

Later in the same dream. Taiji. I show my taiji, to a woman who is interested.
I am alone with a girl that is interested. She is doing another form, but does not mind, and I don't mind, although Joja is very critical. He follows me around. I show her pushing hands, especially double shoulder roll, because in the dream I think this is the most all around exercise in which everything can be explained, and I start very detailed, first with one arm, left, and then both, and at every time I say what needs to be done, very meticulously. This is exactly what she wants.
She does her exercises. This is when she sits down on her bottom and starts to spin. I think this is very weird and I stand by. And she explains this is for sensing energy. And I'm sure it works, but she stays on the floor and lies full length, and after a moment of considering I go to her and pick her up by the waist, like you would with a cat. And she trusts me, she does not even notice I have to replace my hands, because I had not a good grip on her body.

5. Taiji Contract

Related to the above (4). I enter the side of a building, but it is the only place to enter, and I have to be in this building for preparing taiji class or workshop. When I enter there is also a woman and she is interested in what I do. The hallway is very small, and narrow, and there is also a long table or closet, so less place even. That is where I meet her and she hands me papers, about five, and this must be some kind of agreement, colour coded, red, blue and green, I think.
After that I go to the main hall, which is just next door, and my brother N and my mother are there, and the training hall is empty, this is a school sports hall. On the far end there is the seats. I go there. Preparations need to be made. Or maybe things need to be broken up?

6. Staples dropped in Bath Tub

The staples I pulled out of my pants drop in the water. This happens by accident, I don't mean to. And I had done water in the bath, so that is where it is. I have a plate, I want to take all of the staples out.

Circle of Power

1. Leaving for Cairo

I'm bound to leaving for Cairo. I am outside in the transit zone in a city I don't know, maybe halfway. I have reservations about continuing, but the girl that is with me, pushes me along and tries to convince me. We go by plane. I'm sure my brothers are also here, D, but I don't know if they travel with us. N certainly here. Parents too, mother certainly. Light, building on the left.

I have doubts. I'm a little ill from traveling and I need medicine.
Then, supermarket (reminds me of Spain, transit zone too). Everyone is a long time ahead of me, girl and family, and I am behind but I follow eventually. Maybe Inro?
The supermarket is simple, maybe Spain, one floor, concrete floor and walls. There is only the middle alley, you can only go this one way and I try to get to my parents, father and mother are walking together, and I go to them and hide behind my mother, but I also squat and hide underneath a metal table that stands against the wall. This is a queue. There are other people. I suppose this is the queue for embarking the airplane. I am dressed rather extravagantly, or like a girl, dressed in pink, and I don't want people to see me.

Someone wants to help me.
There is a specific reason for going to Cairo, which I can't remember, but about which I wanted to think whether it was worth it or not. I'm rather reserved.

2. Book

Maybe the same dream. Books.
Something about the name Svetlana.
Sword fighting, brother N.
Defending myself? Being uncertain, indecisive.
Eating a baguette with americain? 
Reading one of the latter books of R. Feist, which means I will try again, especially for the science fiction aspect.

3. Sketch

Making drawings, sketches. One has two crocodile men, a river in the background, exotic trees, all in pencil. This was the last drawing, I looked at other drawings too. Crocodiles that stand on two legs.

4. Force Fields, Water and Fish

I have been imprisoned and now I am led to the courtyard in the centre of the building. The building on four sides is very high, and where we are in the middle, this is square and looks like a playground and many people, most of whom are young, are gathered there, they are led there, some already for a long time, and a few people oversee and are from the organisation.
I resist. I am not prepared to partake of their sectarian events. They force me, I don't like them and I don't want to be here. So at some point, I think I want to be the hero and steal an overseer's keys. I am helped by two lock-picks, these are two guys who want to help me, but I don't want to involve too many people, because then it becomes complex, these two is bad enough, but they can help, they are trained for this. They are tall, and don't look entirely human.
I am not sure of the chronology of the dream events. At some point I am forced to cooperate. This is one I am on a high level, floor, of the building, on one side, and look down and see what happens, there are force fields forming below, where the people are, the organization is doing this. They try to persuade me, I am the last but one, so someone is behind me still. And there are only two more people needed two complete the circle, or circles, that are forming down below.
How I got there in the first place: I receive help? I enter the building. I hide, I do this at the highest floor of the building. Everything is set up for the game, that is what it is called, I can see it. The rooms I enter on this floor contain all the preparations, is like a school chemistry lab, class room, but there is no one there, although everything is made ready. I am very sure I should not be here, and what happens below is connected, and not harmful when you are here. There is certainly something fishy going on and I can hinder it. Everywhere are stuck post-its, in the lad. After that I go back and enter another room, the halls are all like classrooms, broad, wide, empty, across is a room, this is the bathroom, toilets are there, and this is what I was looking for, but when I take a closer look, I see there are beds too, they are covered in brown sheets, wooden beds, I think it is from here that I see the playground down below and the whole construction is like a cylinder, but square. All the time I fear they will come after me or catch me or pursue me...
The force fields I see are shaped in two main circles, the energy whirling constantly clockwise, and each of those big circles has a smaller circle opposite of it so that energy can circulate and the system cannot overheat, there is constant movement, and the two systems both interact as well. And one big circle is called The Circle of Power, and this is on the far end of me, watching from far above, and the other one is called The Circle of Power Protection. The energy is mainly white, but also blue. I see the people who are gathered there as specks within this gigantic force field, I understand that this can only be done within these high walls, it is like a battery. The specks of people are blue lights. They are disorganized and ignorant, except for the few overseers, "them".
When I look long enough I see how one big circle is formed of the two large and the two smaller ones, and it starts to become homogenous. I still want to sabotage this.
Once I am outside, I can't remember what happens, but I must have challenged the leader, I am high in the air, and yet not, because the whole inside is filled with water, crystal clear, and the water comes to the top of the building, which is very high. And I fight or compete against, with this one person, in the shape of a fish. I am a fish, and I swim up up up till I reach the surface, but in the meantime I also fight or compete, and the other one follows me, but I am first and apart from that I also win the challenge or win plain and simple and this gives me a sense of satisfaction because it shows that I was right all along and that is the point I was trying to make in the dream. The other one who was following sinks back, powerless, I'm afraid he might drown. This is the end of the dream. Very light. Lucid.
