So realistic it was scary...

Last night I had a dream that felt so real when I awoke I was still a bit shaken.
I can't quite remember where it started so I will just begin with where I think it did.

I was viewing images and amateur video of groups of cattle being levitated into the air and into a craft some distance up. I was watching this footage from the nightly news, I remember feelings of shock and dismay. According to the broadcast people all over the world had been reporting the disappearance and abduction of cattle. The next thing I remember is being outside and looking at an object in the sky, it wasn't the typical "UFO". This craft most closely resembled a wagon wheel with spokes, it was a rusty color I think.

In the next instant everyone was panicking, it was pure chaos, people were just trying to go somewhere but it didnt seem as if they knew where. I remember being in a vehicle with several people also trying to go somewhere. The road was riddled with people trying to stop cars and other vehicles that were off road or crashed. I remember feeling like everything was foreign, very surreal, there was an immense feeling of dread. I remember asking the people in the car with me if they had seen any craft in the sky, they had replied "no". I was trying to describe it and as we were driving we passed one of those wind wheels that are reflective, you know the ones people put at the end of driveways sometimes. I pointed to it and said "Look, that windmill there, thats what it looked like, but much bigger"

I did not know where we were going but ended up at a school, there were other people inside but we had to beg to be let in as they barricaded the doors and blocked the windows. We were let inside then helped seal off the rest of the ground floor. Some time went by and I think it was the next day with bits of doom and gloom coming from a station on the radio. The general message was "Grab whatever you can to defend yourselves and find a safe place to hide because you will not survive in the open. These things are too fast and too powerful, they also have a natural ability to meld with their environment. (Now that I think back on it, it reminds me a bit of that movie "Signs" but with more death and despair)

I remember the people I was with were scrambling for the windows and doors. As I looked out the window I could see car after car and even people on foot headed towards the school. When they had reached the school they started pounding on the windows and screaming. We had already let in as many as our supplies would allow, anymore and we wouldn't of given ourselves a fighting chance against these alien beings. At least maybe thats how I rationalize not letting people in.

In the last few minutes of my nightmare I was hiding in an abandoned semi cab that had crashed off road there was a big hole tore in the side of it. I remember long string-like arms with large hands clawing at me through the hole from outside... there are other bits and pieces but thats about it, it seems more and more of the dream is fading with every minute.

Just an unconscious thought...

Any interpreters ?

My 2 cents:

Something "alien" is going to take over your life. You will try to hide behind your education but it might not suffice.

That makes sense somewhat, I am headed to Alaska for the summer and that will be very alien as opposed to what I am accustomed to. My education has never sufficed so that may also be spot on. Thanks for the 2 cents.
