Dream of unusually high tide in Seattle

a reply to: awareness10

That is an awful dream.

I experienced something similar once,
but not as bad.

I dreamed that I was in contact with a lady who identified herself as "grandmother"
Before I entered her room, there was a bunch of native men sitting in the living room, all telling me not to talk to her as she was evil.
I went in anyways and she made me eat this nasty little rice doll
(I can still taste it when I think about it, tasted like raunchy diesel)
then I had a vision of the town I was in flooding out.
I watched the water rush in and then woke up.

About a month later parts of the town flooded really bad.
Creepy dream.

It was a smaller ferry.

I am used to seeing the bigger ones come through, but this one looks very similar to the dream.
The inside where I was sitting could almost be in the same place, close to the front. I don't know if they have rows of seats in the front with big windows, but that is what I saw in the dream.

That's an Issaquah Class 130 which is medium sized and holds 130 cars. The Supers and Jumbos hold over 200 cars each. In the picture you showed it's on the Seattle to Bremerton run. You can easily tell because of the second-row window structure. Yes, they do have huge windows up front. Just FYI.

If you don't like the program change the channel.
You don't have to read them.

Well, I do know that the ferry that we hit or almost hit was much bigger than the one I was on.
It actually reminded me more of a shipping boat than ferry because it was so big.

The way the dream went was we were leaving the dock and suddenly it was like we lurched forward towards a pier, swerved and turned and then there was the bigger boat right in front of us (also it was headed into the pier)so we had to keep turning hard and went under something (I am not sure what) and I remember thinking or saying we are not going to clear that because the water was so high and I braced for impact and woke up.

Here's a Jumbo Mk 2



And here's an Issaquah Class for comparison:



In this pic the lighter silouette is of a plain Jumbo, not a Mk2, but the Mk2 is just a little bit taller.

Interestingly, the Wenatchee, a Jumbo Mk2, hit the Seattle dock hard this morning and knocked itself out of service on the busiest weekend of the year. The Jumbo Mk2 boats serve the Seattle to Bainbridge run and as I said earlier, the Issaquah-class boats are used on the Seattle Bremerton run, so both use Colman Dock for the Seattle end. So, in theory, your dream pretty well matches the facts, except, of course, for the high tide and all. Here's a pic of a Mk2 Jumbo leaving bainbridge Island. The really are beutiful boats.

Interesting.. I also dreamed of high ocean tides last night, and it was in Oregon. (I don't live there or anywhere near there but did visit many years ago. Love the place)
Nothing usually comes of my dreams so, probably nothing to worry about haha

Wow.

Thanks for the extra info.

I've found over the years that when I do have dreams like this, it happens in a lesser degree that what I dream.
I think maybe it does this so that I will pay attention and remember the dream.

Also on the 4th was a very low tide where I am at, one of the lowest of the year. at -3.5
At the time low tide hit, there was a car accident next to south harbor here and two teenagers were killed,
and two injured. 4th of July festivities were cancelled.
I am not sure if it is related to the dream or not,
but part of me thinks it was.
My town is in mourning and I heard the crash while I was outside having a cig.
When I walked down to the harbor to go fishing I saw the wreckage about an hour later.
When coming back up the ramp of south harbor, I looked back at the water and watched a big ferry go by.

I had posted a picture of the wreckage on fb but was asked to remove it out of respect for the families when we all found out about the deaths.

wonder why people are dreaming of high tides?
Strange.

Perhaps it had to do with your relation with your daughter.
Water may symbolizes emotion, the unconscious, God, death, the loss of boundaries and illusion.

No doubt a prediction of that type for Seattle will ultimately come true and in the not so distant future due to seamount volcanics, ring of fire, and Mt. Rainier

Interesting with the connection with my daughter.

I will have to contemplate that a little bit.

I think this may have several meanings,
as often times dreams like this do.

Update: Bainbridge Island ferry back in service after morning hard landing
By KOMO STAFF, SEATTLEPI.COM STAFF Updated 3:43 pm, Monday, July 4, 2016

One of the two ferries on the critical Seattle-Bainbridge Island route was temporarily out of service on one of the busiest travel days of the year following a hard landing at Colman Dock, officials said.

The ferry Wenatchee hit the dock at about 8 a.m. while pulling into Seattle. The ferry couldn't return to service until it was inspected by the Coast Guard. The boat will return to service as of the 12:20 p.m. sailing, according to Ian Sterling, spokesperson for Washington State Ferries.

The dock was also damaged, but it didn't need to close. No one was injured in the hard landing. Ferry officials said the 8:45 a.m. and 10:25 a.m. sailings from Bainbridge were cancelled, along with the 9:35 a.m. and 11:25 a.m. sailings from Seattle.

There is one of the news articles about it.



Glad it was not worse.

ive also been seeing things pop up in the internet.
the big one is said to be on its way
anyone else getting the feeling something may happen in the near future??

a reply to: dreamlotus1111

I've been waiting for the Cascadia to let loose for a while.

Still waiting though.

A few nights ago I had another dream about an earthquake, but there was no details in it, just a big earthquake.
I don't remember much else.
