Usually, mine are a water theme in a positive manner, I did a thread about them before, there's a few dreams I could stand to add that I've had since
posting it.
But lately, my dreams have been less water-oriented and more...well, it's hard to explain. There's still bodies of water, but the dreams are less
about those as a focus, and my "dream attention" is far more focused on the landscape, which can be anywhere from a cabin in a dense alpine forest
high up on a mountain, to uh...a levitating "ice mountain" water park. Reminded me of the Relto in Myst: Online with the way this giant mountain made
of solid ice hung there in a...well, not a void, and not a sky, but not clouds, either. It's hard to quantify, to be honest. I like that dream,
though, the atmosphere is a fun one, people are happy, and honestly? The dream's food is fantastic.
One that gave me the heebie jeebies recently was me and several others I never saw the faces of going through underground tunnels. There was a purpose
to it, we were looking for & releasing prisoners that were hidden there. I'm not sure if it was a country, a company, or what, but it "felt" very
risky to be attempting to do. The prisoners all reminded me of starved concentration camp victims -- gaunt & frail. Every single one was clad in very
old, filthy hospital gowns that hung off them. And they very photosensitive, flashlights hurt their eyes immensely. The group had thought we'd found
everyone we could, and turned to leave, but via a different route than the one we came in via. There was another offshoot tunnel/hall, and I decided
to check it out, just to be sure.
I got to a cell door, iron bars kind, and looked in at one more person huddled in a corner. As I was looking at them, they looked at me, and I got
this skin crawling sensation of KNOWING who it was, but not at the same time. Familiar, but unfamiliar. I had no idea who they were, but they knew me
by name. I...did something to the lock, picked it I guess, and helped them up, telling them to run, as FAST as possible, and we got out of there.
After a time, someone came to my home to tell me how the former prisoners were doing, I still couldn't see the person's face, and in hindsight,
couldn't tell you if they were male or female, either. They mentioned something about how one former prisoner requested lodging at my home (same house
as we live in IRL) because they would feel safer that way, and they were waiting in the car for the OK from me. I said sure, to make themselves at
home, etc and that I'd be waiting inside whenever they were ready.
The next thing I know, I'm in one of the bedrooms with the former prisoner making up a bed for them, and taking a very hard look at them frequently,
every square inch, trying to figure out how they knew me and why they seemed so familiar.
They came around my side of the bed and held their arms out, as if for a hug, and I obliged. Something in the "dream me" clicked, and I knew who it
was, explicitly. I apologized again and again for not coming for them sooner, nobody knew they were there, hugging their frail, starved frame as hard
as I dared, gently. It's this exchange that still makes my skin crawl remembering it, something about it was, dare I say, profoundly intimate (in a
non-sexual way) Every now and then, I still ask myself, "Who the hell was that??"
The dream ended when in it, my husband came home from work, and the kids came home from their friends' house. I'd taken the mystery person's hand and
said something along the lines of how my husband would love to finally meet them, I woke up when the side door in the dream opened.
Figure that one out. It by far ranks as one of my more unsettling dreams, and has no correlation to anything in real life that I can tell. It's just
one of those freaky dreams that makes a hell of an impact, as intangible as the reason(s) may be.
