BATHROOM DREAMS

by Dee Finney and Joe Mason

and others as named

The need to urinate in a dream often means just that--the dreamer has to wake up and go to the bathroom! However, even when this is the case, the need to urinate is always a symbolic event in the dream world as well, even when it indicates a state of pressure in the physical body.

The most frequent meaning associated with this dream is the dreamer's need to express problematic feelings and thoughts in waking life. In order to stay healthy, we all know we have to relieve our bladders regularly. We can decide when and where, but we have no choice about whether or not to do it, and the longer it's postponed, the more desperate the need becomes. The same is true of the need to give expression to our deepest thoughts and feelings. We have a wide range of choice about when, where, and in whose company we choose to do it, but if we are to remain healthy and whole, we have no more choice about self-expression than we do about urinating. We must do it--and the longer we postpone expressing our deepest emotions, the more likely it is we will have the archetypal "I need to pee and there's no comfortable place to do it!" dream.

Whenever such a dream occurs, I find it valuable to go off into a corner and write down all the secret, taboo thoughts and feelings I have (even if I burn the list the moment I complete it). The "desperate need to urinate" dream is a reliable indicator that I need to express myself more fully and honestly, if only to myself. If there is another trusted person in my life with whom I can be completely candid, so much the better, but even if there isn't, I need to be honest with myself.

***************

The transformation of excrement is one of the great secrets at the center of Carl Jung's work on "alchemy"--the quest to turn base material into gold. It's a universal metaphor of psycho-spiritual development, growth, and maturity. If I can look at the "excrement" of my life--all the places in me that hold the worst things I have ever done, witnessed, or had done to me--unpleasant as that may be, it is also the first step toward turning this "base matter" into "gold." Ironically, it is only by looking clearly at the "excrement" of my life that I can transform it into the "gold" of forgiveness, self-acceptance, and felt-sense of the presence of the Divine. Unless I do this, any seemingly spiritual perspective I embrace will only serve as camouflage for my denial and self-deception, which will betray me in the end.

Freud asserts that the excrement dream is symbolic of money in the dreamer's waking life. On one level this makes sense. The first experience each of us has with exerting ourselves and producing a result, or "product," is moving our bowels. Therefore, we tend to make a symbolic analogy between the "efforts" we put forth in the world and the money we get for it. (In my experience, when the "excrement" in the dream world does equal money, it's a fairly reliable indicator that the waking "trade-off" of time and energy for money is not serving me well. It may be time to look for another line of work.)

There are many symbolic parallels between the "need to urinate" dream and the "excrement" dream. Both indicate an innate desire to express authentic, albeit buried, feelings. If a dream focuses on the evacuation of solid, rather than liquid, waste, there is an added dimension of purging repression and denial. Before I consider fully divulging my thoughts or feelings, I have to admit to myself just how bad things really are in my life. In order to change them, I first have to recognize what they are. So if the dreamer is overwhelmed with excrement, it's always worth asking the question: "What am I facing, or letting go of?" It's important to remember that as unpleasant as it is to face denial in the short run, it is necessary and rewarding in the long run.

Jeff's Dream, 1991 - I was in an oriental town, and I was wearing white pants and a white tanktop. I had tattoos on each shoulder. I walked through a restaurant, and out into the back courtyard. People were watching a fat oriental woman, who lifted up her shirt and showed her pregnant belly.

I went into the bathroom of the restaurant. The toilet was backed up, and urine was on the floor. I looked down, and saw that my white pants had gotten stained.

I went outside and saw a van with children in it. The windows were dirty, so I started to clean them.

-------

Interpretation by Joe Mason - I believe the "toilet" metaphor is a play on the "food-for-thought" symbol, which is common in dreams. Old thoughts/beliefs have been "consumed," and all the nutrients removed. It is time to discharge them. The toilet being backed up seems to say that we are having a problem releasing old beliefs and ways of being.

Jeff also had dream of being on a starship in space. A VERY important message was trying to come in, but it could not come in until the garbage was ejected first.

Derek, a young friend, had a dream of going to an upper-floor apartment to repair a garbage disposal.

Josephine had a dream of being in a large public bathroom with a white and black tiled floor. Another woman came in with a little boy. An announcement was made that the boy had a staff infection, so everyone was going to be quarantined in the bathroom.

In many other dreams, the dreamer, and/or others go into the bathroom. This often happens in complex dreams that are obviously important.

Sometime after Jeff told me the dream of staining his white pants, I became interested in the Bible for the first time. I was not raised with religion, but I had come to the point where I felt there was a lot of truth in all the myths and religions. I was startled to read Revelation 3:1-5 -

". . . I know your works; you have the name of being alive, and you are dead. Awake, and strengthen what remains and is on the point of death, for I have not found your works perfect in the sight of my God."

"Yet you have still a few names in Sardis, people who have not soiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white, for they are worthy." He who conquers shall be clad thus in white garments, and I will not blot his name out of the book of life; I will confess his name before my Father and before his angels."

Another important part of the Bible concerning this is in Zechariah 3. Joshua has filthy garments after being accused by Satan. By the angel's command, he is helped to get clean garments. He is called a "brand plucked from the fire," which seems to indicate a purification process. The verse is quite significant to me, because Joshua and Zerubbabel in Zechariah 4, are directly related to the two olive trees that stand up after 3 1/2 days in Revelation 11:11. They are also called two lampstands and two prophets. They are the two anointed of the bloodlines, the High Priest (Joshua) and King (Zerubbabel). 3 1/2 seems to indicate the midpoint of the seven chakras, the point between the third and fourth (Heart). See:

http://www.greatdreams.com/plpath1.htm

I suppose most people would interpret the verses in Revelation to mean that those who are walking in unstained white garments are not "sinful." Perhaps so, but Jeff's dream seems to indicate that it can refer to those who have discharged the old, negative beliefs, and are able to adopt the new ones. Of course, old beliefs can lead to negative or "sinful" actions, so the bathroom symbolism may suggest both.

Sometimes I find dream symbols reflected in art works of various types. A controversial painting fits this symbolism, in my mind. The painting depicted Jesus in urine. Needless to say, many people were outraged. Sometime after Jeff told me his dream, I thought about the painting controversy. The artist seemed to be saying that the teachings or concepts of Jesus are mired in old negative belief systems. Yes! It IS outrageous!

I think it is important to note that in some dreams there is a "public washroom." In Jeff's dream it was a "bathroom of the restaurant," i. e., a public bathroom. The same can be said of the dream with the people quarantined in the bathroom. The point is that this seems to refer to the general public, rather to just the dreamer. I would think that if the dreams were speaking only to something concerning the individual dreamer, the bathroom would be the one in the dreamer's own house.

I found something new and revealing about a dream I found on-line (see below). The idea of the toilets being out in the open with either no doors or half walls and "just a room of toilets with no means of privacy at all in any form," gives a big hint, I believe. Think about it . . . when we consider changing our beliefs in a way that is different from those around us, it is somewhat frightening, that is, we will probably be subject to rejection. So, the lack of "privacy," in the sense of our new beliefs being "exposed," may cause us to hang on to the old beliefs simply out of a sense of comfort. So, we tend to conform to our "peer groups."

This idea reminds me of a dream my friend Katherine had, except her symbols were different. In the dream, people were being chased by a man. The people ran to a place where there were four trees, and climbed up into them. They hung on to the branches, feeling safe. Then, the man came up to the trees and started pouring gasoline on them.

Trees, I believe, can represent our belief systems. Jeff had a dream where he saw a tree growing out of his teen aged son's head, and some of the branches were rotten. He went to go prune the rotten branches, but he hesitated when he realized that if he pruned too deeply, it would kill the boy.

A young man in Kenya named Joseph sent me a dream that I felt was similar to Katherine's dream. A huge wind came and started blowing him down a dirt road. He grabbed the limb of a tree and hung on for dear life. But he was blown off, and flew down the road among the dirt and debris. After a while the air began to clear.

Joseph had another dream that was more like a vision. He saw the images before he fell asleep. In the vision, lots of people were being chased by some mean-looking men carrying pitchforks.

I found this quite interesting, because a number of dreams and coincidences involved a pitchfork or Trident. Later, I read about some of the concepts in the East Indian religions. The "Destroyer god," Shiva, has the Trident as one of his symbols. He is one of three gods in a Triad or Trinity, that is, the One God in three aspects. The other two aspects are "Creator," and "Sustainer." The idea is that a creation is created, sustained, and then destroyed, followed by the next cycle. The "Destroyer" function is equated to a seed growing into a plant. The "seed" is destroyed in the process of the "plant's" growth.

The man pouring the gasoline on the four trees in Katherine's dream, I felt, also fit with these ideas.

In Jeff's dream, he was in an "oriental" town. I believe that "oriental" refers to "strangers or foreigners from the East," who's language we cannot understand, meaning entities or symbolic information from a more enlightened spiritual dimension. The Gnostics had the term "Alogenes," which meant "stranger" or "foreigner."

The "fat oriental woman, who lifted up her shirt and showed her pregnant belly," in Jeff's dream, may suggest the seed of an idea that will be "born" into manifestation. Cleaning the windows of the van, so that the children could see better, may refer to helping others to understand, to become awake and aware. Perhaps this is the "baby" that is to be "born," that is, Jeff may help others in their spiritual quest, by reporting his dreams.

The following two dreams also include the "bathroom" symbolism:

Recurring Dreams Of No Toilets Reported by Pamela on Nov 4, 1997

I keep having dreams concerning the same thing. I dream that I have to go to the washroom in a public place, but when I get to the public washroom, either the toilets have been removed or they are out in the open with either no doors or half walls. Sometimes they are just a room of toilets with no means of privacy at all in any form. Any ideas what this all means???

------

Mike Mason (12 year old) 1982 - I was with dad and Nancy on the back porch or patio of our house. They were dividing something at a table. A desert was around the area. I was looking at the sun, and saw a speck of light come off. I said, "Look! There's something coming off the sun!"

Dad and Nancy did not believe me. The speck of light fell, and grew larger and larger. It struck about 100 yards away in the desert area, creating a crater, and dust fell on the patio from the impact. A car near the impact point blew up. The car burned, and a huge fire started, as sage brush and tumble weeds ignited. The fire was coming toward the house.

I ran through the house, and out the front door. The neighborhood was then not the same. It was the neighborhood where my mother lived. All the houses were covered with white ash.

Two police cars pulled up. It seemed to be nighttime then. The first police car had three people in it, two policemen and a girl that looked like a prostitute. I was so scared, I couldn't talk.

I opened the police car passenger door, and pulled out one cop. I pointed to where the object had landed. I went back into the house, and hollered, "Dad! John and Cindy are in the bathroom! You've got to help me get in and tell them what has happened!" Dad came and we yelled through the door, telling John and Cindy what had happened. They wouldn't listen, so dad broke down the door. They listened to dad and I. I went to the patio and got Nancy. We all went to the police cars and were safe.

-------

Many years later, around 1995, I reread my son Mike's dream again. I had not remembered the "prostitute" in the dream. By 1995, many ideas had come my way concerning the "harlot" in Revelation 17. She seems to have the same meaning as Kali, in the Eastern religions. A karmic, learning function seems to be implied. I often find that "police" in dreams, also seem to indicate the karmic process. It is as if we, mankind, are being "policed," that is, our actions are being observed on another level of reality, and all "accounts" are eventually settled fairly. It is quite similar, I believe, to the Biblical idea of "judgment."

My feeling is that the karmic function is more of a learning process, rather than a simple reward/punishment system. I also tend to believe that we "judge" ourselves. Our Higher Self, perhaps, is involved in the process.

We have a page that includes information about Kali and the harlot:

Tamasisk - Anger - Fury

Dee and I are gathering other "bathroom" dreams to add to this article. Although often amusing, or even embarrassing, we do think these dreams carry important messages.

Some choice Biblical Quotes

2Kings 18:27 - "But the RAB' shakeh said to them, "Has my master sent me to speak these words to your master and to you, and not to the men sitting on the wall, who are doomed with you to eat their own dung and to drink their own urine?"

This verse is repeated in Isaiah 36:12

Ezekiel 4:9 - The Lord has appeared to Ezekiel and is telling him exactly what types of food and drink that he is to have for a period of time. Then in verse 4:12 thru 15 - "And you shall eat it as a barley cake, baking it in their sight on human dung." And the Lord said, "Thus shall the people of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations whither I will drive them." Then I said, "Ah! Lord God! behold, I have never defiled myself; from my youth up till now I have never eaten what died of itself or was torn by beasts, nor has fowl flesh come into my mouth." Then he said to me, "See, I will let you have cow's dung instead of human dung, on which you may prepare your bread."

Malachi 2:1 - 3 - "And now, O priests, this command is for you. If you will not listen, if you will not lay it to heart to give glory to my name, says the Lord of Hosts, then I will send the curse upon you and I will curse your blessings; indeed , I have already cursed them, because you do not lay it to heart. Behold, I will rebuke your offspring and spread dung upon their faces, the dung of your offerings, and I will put you out of my presence. "

THE DREAMS BEGIN

7-8-88 - DREAM - I saw a musical vehicle coming down the street into a huge brass-like/ bell-like speaker attached to it's right side. The vehicle was like a parade float. On it a beautiful model was talking and showing off her clothes. Alongside walked several more models and I wondered how much walking they had to do to look that beautiful and muscular legs. The vehicle stopped and 6 beautiful models came into the building and stood in a row in front of me. They all weighed 135 pounds. They treated me like I was one of them, but I felt terribly fat and I tried to hide my hips by holding my arms at my sides. They said they were from the Paul Le Claire agency I was ashamed of how fat I was. I hid in the bathroom. My skirt fell off there and I had to put on another skirt and when I did, I looked at the colors. It was red and green plaid and I said it looked like Christmas.

7-20-88 - DREAM - I moved into a huge old white house with my husband and kids. It was gigantic. I didn't know where or what all the rooms were yet. I knew there were 3 bathrooms just on the first floor. There were a set of double doors on all 4 sides of the house. I hadn't yet figured out how to tune in the TV. It had more knobs and stations and was bigger than my old one. I went to see what the kids were doing. I discovered a little lighted room behind the sofa. I said it could be a playroom. There was a huge gold metal form protruding into the room from the back wall. I didn't know what it was or if it was dangerous.

My husband said I could advertise in the paper for a part-time job at home. He said the hours could be 10 am. to 9 p.m. I said, It sure won't be babysitting. There are enough kids around here already." I could hear children playing outside all around the house. I also thought to myself. It seems like there's an awful lot of traffic going by too.

I had some new taped books to study. One of them was numbered 2100. I pressed the button to start it.The light went out. There wasn't enough power in the house to operate it yet.

8-2-88 - DREAM - Several dreams were about going to the bathroom and going to the toilet and being unable to 'cut it off'. Other people came in and I was afraid they would see it. One lady picked it up and it was a roll of brown livingroom carpeting.

NOTE: (My psychiatrist had said I had to 'cut it off".

8-15-88 - DREAM - I had a small baby. I knew I had been neglecting him but I noted that he was pretty healthy considering I hadn't been feeding him very consistently and not enough solid food. I changed his diaper in the bathroom and everything was white and I determined that if Edward was leaving me, I could take care of the baby myself if I really wanted to, so I did.

8-16-88 - DREAM - I was back on Parkway Ave. to see if I could get back in there. I knew I was dreaming and I knew I was dreaming about this to make sure I checked with them for that reason. The fish business the landlord ran was all set up, and I found all kinds of silver coins all over the floor and put them into my pocket. The dream ended when I went to the bathroom. The landlord tried to offer me $400 for the phone bill and I knew I should keep my mouth shut about the phone and how much money he owed me.

9-16-88 - DREAM - I was downtown and had a good time and got used to being with people. It was snowing outside and I crossed the street to find a bathroom. The sky was unusually blue at the same time it was snowing.

I went home to take care of the children. My husband came home. He was drunk but he asked if I would go downtown to see a musical show with him. I said, "Yes!" because I had enjoyed myself there. He brought out some liquor and offered me a sample. I took a sip to be friendly. He then pulled out a larger bottle of booze and began drinking heavily and I became afraid.

I began to dress the baby in his snowsuit. It was pale green. I could hear my husband talking to me from the other room. He was laying on the floor. I was hurrying to run away from him so he wouldn't hurt the baby.

I reached the front door and opened a golden lock and undid a golden chain and slipped out the door with the baby.

I was now in Milwaukee on 16th St. running north. My husband followed me to the door saying how great he had done fixing our lake cottage. I kept running farther and farther away from him. Then he said, "You're right. I don't say the right things. May the Great God watch out for us together."

NOTE: It was only 3 months later that I was forced to run away from him for the last time and finally divorced him because of his drinking and drug habits.

9-28-88 - DREAM - I spent a long time getting ready for an eye doctor appointment, but we never went. I decided to go on a date instead. My dress was a gorgeous chiffon powder blue. I looked in the mirror and my face had streaks of dirt and no make up so I went into the bathroom to clean up. While I was in there, one of my kids handed me toilet bowl cleaner and some water got on it so I had to dump it into the toilet. I got some on my shoes and it got a hole in it and I burst into tears.

12-5-89 Dream: I went into the bedroom where my husband was waiting for me. He as laying face down on the bed and when he saw me, he wanted me. I was wearing a white garter belt, stockings, and high heeled shoes and nothing else.

However, the baby was standing in his crib making noises like he was trying to poop his diaper. So, I had to ignore my husband's desire and take care of the baby.

I grabbed the baby and ran to the bathroom with him. I took his diaper off to sit him on the toilet. The baby's right leg came off with the diaper and hanging by just one thread of flesh at the socket.

The toilet was full of S__T, the baby was full of S__T. The baby was screaming because his leg had fallen off and he was in agony.

I was screaming because it was so terrible a situation. My husband came in to help clean up the baby so we could rush him to the hospital. The baby and I continued to scream as my husband tried to clean the S__T out of the baby's leg socket.

I woke up screaming.

1-29-90 - DREAM - Edward came home. He was real nice and I was pleased. He said he was going to sell our house and we would move to "Prince". I thought he meant Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, Canada, but he didn't say that. He was outside, staining all the white parts brown. He said he would sign a contract as to what he would do. I asked him to say that he loved me, but he couldn't. Then there was another girl there and he wanted both of us to make love to him with our toes. I agreed, but went to the bathroom to get ready. I was wearing 4 black bras at the same time and white underpants with blue flowers on them.

There was another scene in the distance of a city blowing up and then of a bunch of building falling into the river that he owned. They said "Worth" on them. He said he figured out how to solve the problem. He just sold them to me and his problems were over.

2-8-90 - DREAM - My husband gave me a blue car to drive. I was pushing the car around the street by hand from the sidewalk because I wasn't ready to drive it yet. A bus came from one way and bumped into it, knocking it backwards, then a bus came from the other way and bumped into it. It was a little bent on the bumper, but otherwise still drivable. I was headed toward the car when I saw the two drivers go up to the car, reach inside to get some information, then shake hands to make a pact not to tell anyone they were stealing the information. I decided to take a tranquilizer and get in the car and drive it whether I was ready or not.

I went to my New Berlin house and my head was itching on top. I scratched it a few times, then went to the bathroom to comb it. with one combing, half of my hair came out on top of my head, but nothing did on the sides or back. I was devastated and I wanted to call a doctor for help.

The kids were making so much noise in the livingroom, so I went to the kitchen to use that phone. I knew it was the tranquilizer mixed with another drug that made my hair fall out. I picked up the phone and I could hear my mother talking to Oral Roberts, the minister. I decided then to ask Oral Roberts to pray for me.

3-16-90 - I was on an outing with a group of friends to a farm. At first I was concerned about how far it was away from a hospital, then I settled in to enjoy it. We slept all night. The next morning, humiliating things began to occur. I had to go to the bathroom in the presence of another girl. I was assigned to make the beds. The sheets were too narrow for the beds and I was called on it to make them perfectly anyway. I went outside to go for a walk, but it was so muddy alongside the plowed vegetable fields. I had to retrace my steps and go back. The male leader of the group then assigned me the worst chores in the house. I had to sweep blue shag carpeting which had never been cleaned before. Then he sold a rough, burly type man the kitchen stove for $3.00, then assigned me the job of cleaning up all the garbage and grease off of it for nothing. I just said, "Yes Sir!" and went to work on it.

3-28-90 - DREAM - There was a storm coming out of the northwest. It loomed blacker and blacker. I rushed around to make sure that all my children were inside the house and protected.

All their toys were outside the house and I didn't care if they blew away. While I was rushing around the house, I let out a couple of blood curdling screams, but I felt joy while I was doing it.

Then a woman came to the back door asking if I had seen her daughter. I hadn't, but I noted that the back screen door had a square hole poked in it and it was pulling away from the edge and needed to be repaired. The woman left. I knew at that moment that my last placed of residence had been moved way back into a corner of the subdivision where it could no longer cause trouble in my life.

I went upstairs and saw that there were two shirts on my son's bedroom floor. They were wet. The blue one had a yellow stain around the upper edges that needed to be rinsed out and the white one still had soap suds in it that needed to be rinsed out.

I went to the bathroom to do this job and attempted to rinse the two shirts, but a locksmith friend was sitting in the sink blocking the drain so the water couldn't go down. I had to ask him to move his butt off of the drain.

My boss was there. I wanted to show him a dance, so I went to my room and put on a long bright red skirt. There was then no one in the room to dance for and I noted that my skirt was way too big for me and I had to hold it up to prevent it from falling off. I made a promise to myself to take it in a little before I wore it again.

8-28-90 Dream: I was at my apartment sitting in my livingroom rocker, relaxing. I was wearing only panties. (That was how I was dressed because of the heat) I heard loud male voices talking in the hallway just outside my door. When I got up to go see what was going on, covering myself with a small blanket, there was a young man standing inside my apartment talking through the door to men outside the door. I looked through the peep hole to see four men outside who looked like my sons. The man inside protested, but I opened the door to let them in. But the men were not my sons so I closed the door again, trying to make sure that the door was locked securely. The young man's name was Jimmy Dougherty and I thought he was a good friend of my ex-husband. The young man was in the livingroom sitting in my rocker. I went to the bedroom to get dressed and the young man went to the bathroom. I was worried that he would bother me in my state of undress but he didn't. He went back to the livingroom while I finished dressing. When I was done I went to the livingroom to ask Jimmy what he would like for breakfast. I saw that my apartment door was open. I looked into the livingroom and it was almost empty. The television set and stereo was gone, the fish tanks were gone, the sofa was gone, and the chair was gone. All that remained was a couple of end tables.

NOTE: I was extremely depressed after this dream. It was determined in meditation that the valuables taken from me by the man or men in the dream were energies, powers, virtues, capabilities, and abilities, etc.

I had to meditate longer than usual to pull all those things back from the astral and mental levels. I could see them coming back in form of particles, and flowing fluids. When I was done, the depression was gone.

12-1-90 Dream: My husband was planning to build an addition onto the house which was good, but in the meantime he was contemplating closing off one of the current rooms. I didn't want him to. I thought it would make a good storage room. A workman came to look at it. My husband went in first, I followed the workman, wanting to see for myself. The first part of the room was a bathroom and I decided definitely that had to stay. Then I went through a very narrow door and found myself in a large attic room which I was pleased was perfectly clean with a shiny floor. Then I went to the right to the second room to find my husband and was surprised to see a board meeting going on. A long, long table was in the center with all the executives making decisions.

My husband was sitting in a wheelchair with a newspaper in front of him. He said that he was contemplating what to do about whether to shut off rooms or not. I knew I would not allow that to happen.

1-17-91 - Dream: I was having a party and all the guests were women. A man came to the door advertising a group called "MOON". It was about developing a person's psychic abilities. I wanted in the worst way to tell everyone that I was psychic, but I didn't want to just come right out and say it. So, I figured that I could just be the best at all his experiments he was going to conduct and he could be the one who would discover it for himself. My opportunity came when one of the men wanted to communicate with his boss. (He must have sneaked in) The experiment was for me to think about the communication with mental telepathy to cause the boss to call out to the man next to me. So I did that. We were on a big yellow bus at the time, going to a school. I began to think the thought, then I saw three pair of eyeglasses dangling in the sky and a voice in my head said, "No! The fourth!" and immediately the boss called out to the man next to me. I immediately announced what I had seen.

Then we went into a white sterile looking kitchen where a film was to be shown on the white wall for another experiment. The man next to me suddenly had to blow his nose and slipped out of the room, so the opportunity came for me to demonstrate my ability to the whole group. I was shown some puffy marks on a wall. I saw more and more stains on the ceiling in the kitchen and in the bathroom where the upstairs toilet was. So, I bravely announced that the person upstairs either had a leaky toilet or there was steam escaping from a broken pipe in the walls. The only way to know was to knock a hole in the wall where the pipes were. Everyone was amazed that I would know that.

1-22-92 - DREAM - MEETING GOD - I was living in a small town with my family. We were expecting guests and I had to clean the house. I was working on this when an old man and his wife came to the door and asked to use the bathroom. He brought in with him, 3 bags of cookies, each one different and still hot from the bakery. He put the bags on the table and went to the bathroom. He and his wife ate some cookies and I think some of my kids did too, because their wasn't a lot left.

I went about my business cleaning and my old boss D.L. came in and asked me if I had seen the wedding that afternoon. I told him that I hadn't. He asked me if I would tape it for him because it would be on the news. I agreed to do it though I felt extremely harassed by that time.

I had missed dinner trying to get the house clean and everyone else was done. So, I had nothing to eat all afternoon. I was starving, but I still had work to do.

The old man was now trying to bag up the remaining cookies and my boss said, "Why don't you help the old man?" I really felt harassed by now, but agreed to rebag the cookies. I just put them in the bags any old way and the bags poofed out at the bottom.

I thought to myself, "I really could have done a better job of it."

Then the old man said, "Would you mind packing them tall and narrow like this?" and showed me a bag of cookies he had bagged himself and the cookies were stacked neatly, and the bag was tall and narrow.

I felt extremely harassed by now. I looked at the clock and it was quarter to six. I put the tape into the VCR so I wouldn't miss taping the wedding on the news.

I saw that everything else in the house was getting back out of control and the house wouldn't be perfectly cleaned up for the guests, but if the old man wanted his cookies bagged tall and narrow, that's the way I would do it.

So, I took out a new baggie to pack the cookies in and then I saw that despite all the cookies that had been eaten and all the cookies that I had already packed, the original bag of cookies the old man had given me to repack had now been refilled to over it's capacity and was almost running over.

I looked up at the old man and the realization came to me, with accompanying feelings of guilt that I had treated the old man not as a first class guest, but rather as a harassment of an intruder, and that this old man was God.

1-9-92 - DREAM - My Grandson Steven came to work with his Dad (My son Ken) He came right up to me past all the other people to show me his new book of fire trucks. We went through the book with him pointing at pictures. His Dad left and then Steven came up to me to show me had had a dirty diaper. I took him into the bathroom to wash him up and he loved the bathtub, but then he climbed out of the tub and into the crib and was surrounded by all kinds of books which I had to remove to get to him, so I could put his new diaper on.

2-8-92 - DREAM - I was in the parking lot at A-C, and one of the cars in the lot had a water circulation problem. It was T.M.s car. I went upstairs to tell T.M. His office was right by a bathroom. T.M's door was closed and his boss at on a chair right outside of T.M.s office, so I considered going into the bathroom because the door was open about an inch.

All of a sudden, T.M.'s door opened and he came out and there we stood - face-to-face, after not having seen each other for 7 years. We both looked rather shocked for a moment. I didn't even know if he'd recognize me because my hair was a different color and I felt embarrassed because I hadn't looked in a mirror to see if my hair was combed decent. T.M.'s hair was a golden-reddish blonde and that surprised me, because I remembered him with white hair.

I didn't know what to say because I hadn't intended to see him against his wishes, but he waited for me to follow him down the hall and I did.

We went down to the 3rd floor and there stood David. That shocked me again. I thought the best thing to do was just to introduce them to each other. I was just about to do that and I looked at the man again and it wasn't David. I couldn't believe I mis-recognized this man. He looked nothing like David. I apologized for bothering him and followed T.M. down the hall and woke up.

2-18-92 - NOTE: I originally lived 5 blocks from Jeffrey Dahmer, the serial killer. I had had several dreams about him prior to him being discovered as the killer. This dream occurred after he had been convicted and sent to prison for life.

As an added note: Jeffrey Dahmer was murdered in prison, beaten to death in the head by an exercise machine metal bar in 1994.

DREAM - Jeffrey Dahmer was on the loose in New York City. Someone I knew well, put a bullet through his skull on the lawn when he came around the corner. When he put the gun down, I personally picked up the gun and put a second bullet through Dahmer's skull to make sure he stayed dead.

There was a city-wide search for Dahmer and then for us because we were now killers too. We went into a store and my friend bought a big table top into which he had drilled a triangle shaped device to aim a weapon from.

Then we went to a store where we found body parts stacked everywhere and we took it upon ourselves to clean it up and also to take Dahmer's souvenirs because we thought they'd be worth a fortune in the future.

Then I went into the bathroom to clean the blood off the cabinet doors. A big picture of Satan was painted in blood. I cleaned off the blood but the white doors were still stained with the shape.

I then met my friend and he told me that he and the other guy had finished sorting out what stuff they had found in the attic and I could take my pick of what was left. I then realized that my friend was the man S (my psychic friend) had spoken of that I would start a friendship with but it wouldn't work out.

I then saw a newspaper picture that was blood red. It was a photo of my friend and his two friends. they had been photographed on the balcony of the building throwing blood red dung at a sign that had the words, "FOR SURE" on it. Now I realized that the whole world would know who they were and they were marked men who would have to be destroyed by Satan's followers who loved Dahmer.

2-24-92 - DREAM - I was in my 66th St. house with my mother and father and brother. T.M. came to visit. We were watching television and it became very late. I thought T.M. would be going home when I said that I was tired and it was time to go to bed. But my mother and father gave T.M. the Master bedroom, by brother had his own room with a grand piano in it, my father went to bed in a room across the hall, and my mother took the couch. The only place left for me to sleep was in the bed with T.M. There was enough room for two to sleep without touching. I had a pink quilt and I went into T.M.'s room and put the quilt across T.M.s feet so he would be warm. He was grateful for the warmth and urged me to get into the bed beside him, but I couldn't do that until I went to the bathroom to wash up first. As soon as I got to the bathroom, my father came and insisted that he had to go in first and then another man who looked like a bum said that he had to go before me also. All I could do, was to stand aside and wait my turn because I couldn't go to bed with T.M. until I was perfectly clean and he was waiting for me.

2-28-92 - DREAM - I was in a big house I owned. I was under investigation by both the police detectives and some bad guys. (I didn't know who) But all these people were trying to find a book I had, but they were sure I had. I had actually hidden it well, behind a lot of other stuff way back under a stairway. I wanted to get the book out, but I couldn't let anybody know where it was. The house was full of people, all looking for the book and some gang members tried to gain entry to the house. They wanted to kill me to prevent the publishing of the book, not knowing it was already done. I pointed out the gang members to the police and they got rid of them, but there were still subversives in the house so anxious to get this book, they would do anything to get it.

I went into another room and the dining table was all set for a banquet in honor of me for writing this book. Everyone looked so somber, I said, "What is this? A wake?" Everybody kind of settled down a little and I saw a young woman come in whose name was "Phoebe Snow". She was an obscure author and she had agreed to write my life story just to get her name in print. Nobody knew who she was yet. (Actually Phoebe Snow is a well known black singer.) ( A white young female in the dream)

I was going to introduce her to the other people at the dinner, but I saw that some people were still looking for the hidden book. I still wanted desperately to retrieve the book that was hidden under the stairs , but too many people were hanging around watching me.

I went into a smaller room near the stairs with a man, dressed in a long sleeved green shirt. He was a psychic like me. He believed in me and my story. We stood in front of a mirror in which we were going to conjure up some spirits. He held my right hand with his left hand and we started swinging our arms wildly and breathing hard and bouncing up and down to bring up the spirits. The spirits started to become visible in the mirror when a young, black-haired woman came walking in the back door.

I started hitting her in the face with a fly swatter. I was angry at her for spoiling our psychic conjuring. I saw that she carried two fly swatters, but I got her first.

I left then to go to a movie to get away from everyone. I walked up 16th St. to Center St. and to Teutonia Ave. to the Milwaukee Theatre. I sat towards the back. The movie hadn't started yet and I was getting hungry. There were a lot of young black kids there and someone threw something at me. I had a big white pillow with me and somehow I suddenly had a book in a gray paper bag in my hand. It puzzled me how I got it. I got up and went into the lobby. There were still people in the lobby and they rushed in to take my seat.

I went to the ladies room. It was filthy and everybody was aghast at it's bad condition. We found one open toilet that was clean, but it had no seat. I waited until another girl took her turn first, laughing and telling her that if she didn't die, I wouldn't either. But when my turn came, I couldn't go. I was anxious to see what the book was that I had in the bag.

3-3-92 - DREAM - I was in an office building on an upper floor. I carried with me the ear piece to a dictaphone machine where instructions were given. I went to the bathroom and in each stall was a wire coming from the dictaphone and all I had to do was connect the 2 wires. There was another girl there with the same type ear piece. She had dark brown hair and was of stocky build. I felt that she was a rival of some kind. I left the bathroom talking about a nursing job. I overheard another woman say that she loved nursing because she loved pushing scrub brushes around and I thought to myself that she really didn't have the right concept of nursing.

I saw a train go by headed towards town and I knew had to catch it and go for a job interview in another city. There were crowds of people going that way. The men were separated from the women on the train. Another woman was with me and helping me. I was in a hurry to catch the next train. She was telling me that we had to fill out an application first and then get on the train at the rainbow door. I told her we should get to the train, then we could fill out the application while we stood in line or we wouldn't be on time.So, I kept on waiting and she kept hollering, "Wait! Wait!" trying to fill out the application at the same time.

To get to the train headed the way we wanted to go, we had to cross a busy highway and go over the track to the other side and there was a slippery icy mound to go over and a stop light and a traffic guard directing traffic. So, I went as far as I could and had to wait for the red light to turn green and wait for the traffic guard to give the go ahead. At that point I would have to cross the road and maneuver over the icy hump over the railroad tracks.

3-4-92 - DREAM - I was in a city apartment building and some people came through the basement who needed to be trained to do something. They didn't even know how to fill out the paperwork with their own initials and who their supervisor was. I showed them how to do that, then went back up to the ground floor and was now in front of my 16th house with a power scrubber, scrubbing down the front steps and sidewalk that some sticky stuff had gotten coated onto. As I was scrubbing, a man said, "You know, in Chicago, all this swill comes pouring out at night and they don't do anything about it. My response was to scrub more vigorously.

Then I saw a large, low, rocky mound that divided Chicago territory from Milwaukee territory. Some men were standing on the rocky mound directing what was going on from the sidelines.

Then I looked at the Milwaukee side and saw an alley with black paving stones. They were all edged with just the slightest bit of white. Another man stood so close to me, he was almost part of me. He said, "That's just not an option for me, that's just not an option for me." I continued power scrubbing the stuff of the sidewalk.

NOTE: during the night, I became very ill and suffered extreme stomach cramps for 1 1/2 hours which produced nothing, not even gas. Finally, I was able to go to the bathroom and the stomach seizures stopped. I went to bed and immediately heard a voice tell me that "they" were testing me to see how much pain I could stand.

3-7-92 - DREAM - I was walking down a city street sightseeing. I went to a stadium to watch some awards being given. A young man came up to me and asked if he could sit beside me. I said, "Yes!" His hand touched mine and there was a great attraction between us. But he felt cold to me and he said that I felt hot. I took him in my arms and warmed him. then he got down on his knees in front of me and held out two rings to me to choose from. They were both beautiful. I said, "Does this mean something special?", expecting him to ask me to marry him. He didn't say anything, but he was looking into my eyes. A mask came over his face so I couldn't look into his eyes, like goggles. He still didn't say anything and I felt uncomfortable not being able to see into his eyes, so I unmasked him and looked into his eyes and he looked away. A preacher came along offering salvation to people and many people accepted Christ as their Savior. The man with me said, "I can't believe, but I want to," and started to cry. I took him into my arms and said, "It's such a simple thing to say, "Jesus! I believe in you," to be saved, all you have to do is believe what he taught, and say, "Jesus! I believe". He just cried.

We walked on then through a crowd of some very rough gangs. He surreptitiously handed me both rings and said, "Here! Hold these." I held them tightly in my left hand so no one could see them. We passed through the gangs unharmed and then came to a corner. There was a green house there and it was empty. It was a "Milwaukee bungalow". (A specific type of house in Milwaukee, WI.)

Another preacher came along and my friend said to the man, "Please explain to me the 5 parts of salvation."

Since I was already considered "Saved and Born Again", I decided to go across the street and look at the green house and a man on the porch where we were said that he would show it to me.

While I was crossing the street, I slipped the rings on my fingers and took a really good look at them. I slipped one on my little finger on the right hand and saw that it had three emeralds and above each emerald was a gold cross. The one I slipped on my left 'ring' finger was a gold crown with a diamond at the center.

Then it came to me what the rings really were and I had to take them both off immediately and could not accept either ring. Then, I knew that the man I was with had killed the man who owned these rings, a high priest. I couldn't let anyone see that I had them. I put them both in my right coat pocket and jammed my gloves in on top of them and then kept my hands in my pockets to make sure they didn't fall out.

We went into the green house then and it turned out to be a nightclub. The people inside welcomed me warmly as though I would be their new boss, but the place wasn't for me. I asked to see the bathroom. You had to take turns to get in, but knew that the cleanliness of the bathroom would tell me how well the whole building was kept. I made the tour. It was hard to get in and almost impossible to get back out because of the crowds of women, all dressed in pink.

I had to get back to the man to see if he had accepted Christ as his Savior. I would give the rings back to him, so he could turn them in to the authorities and I would marry him and stand by him as long as his prison sentence would be, probably for life.

11-4-93 - DREAM - I had three dreams about prolapse of my intestines so that when I went to the bathroom, my intestines started to come out. A doctor took me to the hospital for surgery.

In the last dream, while I was trying to go to the bathroom, my painter Bob was trying to stab me in the forehead with a sharp stick and I had to call for Joe the maintenance man to get him away from me.

by Dee

*****************

10-27-93 - DREAM - I was in my New Berlin house, saying goodbye to all my friends because Edward was coming home. Then I moved into my old 66th St. house and Edward came home. We were sitting on the bed together and he wanted to know how long it had been since I had sex.

I had to pretend I hadn't had any since the last time I saw him. I needed to go to the bathroom and while I was in there, Ed was on the phone applying for a job. I then realized that I was going to have to get a new job too.

I went back to the bedroom and a big blonde man was there. He was smiling when I entered the bedroom. I knew he didn't belong there and I hollered for Edward to come and get him but Edward couldn't see him. Edward did come and hold him back anyway.

I then went to a place to work. It was a gas station but it was closed. I was trying to close the overhead doors when a bunch of black, white, and Spanish people showed up. I was afraid of them. Some started to party in the store part of the station and I got into a fist fight with a Spanish or Italian girl. I was punching her in the face and winning, however I could hear her teeth breaking in her mouth and she wouldn't give up. I hollered at someone to grab her and take her to the hospital but she wouldn't quit fighting. I finally opened my eyes awake in the physical to get away from them.

*******************

12-23-93 - DREAM - This was a dream within a dream. I dreamed I was in the livingroom laying in a casket. The doorbell rang, so I got up to go answer the door. When I opened the door Joe, the maintenance man stood there minus his moustache and beard and my friend David was behind him slightly to his left.

Dream - I was laying in bed at 8 a.m. (bleeding heavily) A woman dressed in a green suit came into tell me I need to wear a babushka when I go outside. I tried to tell her I had a drawer full of scarves to wear on my head. Then Ken (the maintenance man) came in. He was being substitute manager while I was gone. A trail of salespeople started coming in. I started swearing and told them to get out. Ken told me to behave myself. I told him that when I was sick, I didn't want all these people coming through. I told Ken how much hope I had had for a good life and a nice place to live with Ed but how it had been taken away from me by Ed's crimes.

I went into the bathroom then with a package from a woman who told me it would be important to me. I opened it to find two different face creams. This was the first time I had been in this bathroom. The shower was squirting on the wall instead of down. I sat on the toilet and it was too low to the floor.

In the bedroom I was gong to move the furniture because a dresser was blocking the closet and I wanted to use the closet. I told Ken I wanted to open a passageway between two apartments so I could use both at the same time.

******************

2-28-94 - DREAM - Joe, the maintenance man and I were having a friendly romance, and it was nice, but I didn't want to have it jeopardize my job and by the time I decided I should, he had already started paying attention to my girlfriend Donna.

Joe was living with me and my kids and my son got his fingernails dirty and wanted to clean them but Joe had taken the fingernail brush to work with him. So to settle my son down, we tried to call Joe at work to ask for the brush. We never did manage to get ahold of him even with two operators trying to help me. I went into the bathroom and saw there was a dirty spot on my brand new pale yellow dress and changed it to a red dress and put red earrings in my ears also.

by Dee

******************

4-3-94 - DREAM - I was dreaming that someone was taking me for a ride in a car. I asked to be taken to the library. In the library, I picked out two smallish books. The blue one was Psalms, written so as to read one every day. The yellow one was "Meditations" and included music written so to work on one page a day.

In the morning, I woke up in my 16th St. house and I went to look if the dream was real and it was. I actually had the books in the house.

I wanted to tell Joe the maintenance man about it because I was so excited about this. I saw Joe coming into the back door from the yard. I had the books in my hand.

There was another girl living in the house with me. she had already been in the bathroom over two hours and I was waiting for my turn. I did not have a job and after looking at the clock, which said 9 a.m., I thought to myself, "This is nice, I could get used to this."

Joe came in and we hugged intimately and I enjoyed the sensations. At the same time I was feeling jealousy that this other woman was in the house with us.

Joe took a drill and put it under my dress. He drilled something but I didn't feel anything. He said, "I'm opening up a valve that is closed." Since I didn't feel anything, I didn't know what it was, but I knew it was sexually related.

NOTE: In 1999 while typing up this dream, I had to look twice at the date of this dream, because I couldn't tell whether it was a 1999 dream in error or not because I live with another Joe now. :-) Nothing has changed. :-)

by Dee

****************

From Joe ~~~~~~ My friend, Jeff, had this dream around 1995 -

I drove my truck to a supermarket. I got out, but went back for my light tan coat, because it was raining. There had been a storm. The lights were out inside the supermarket because of the storm. I walked through to the bathroom. The lights were on. My plant manager, Mr. Behee, was there, and another man, who was his supervisor.

Something happened that I cannot recall. I walked back into the store, and the lights were now on. I took an item to the counter. In order to purchase it, I had to sign a little block of caramel wrapped in cellophane.

Suddenly, the scene changed, and I was outside riding in a car driven by a woman dressed in red. She was doing a radio broadcast from the car, and I could hear it over the speakers. After a while, I told her that I really did not like such talk shows, and asked her to change the channel to a rock-n-roll station. She agreed, but said she had to announce it first, and then she did so.

****************

6-5-95 - DREAM - I was in New Berlin with my family. I went outside to look at the night sky. It was glittering with stars. I said, "I want to see a UFO. Nothing moved. The stars were all in place and only the precession of the stars because of the earth moving could be perceived.

But then I went into the house and looked outside. The sky was daylight now and pure blue. I saw a car float through the sky and then a big dump truck. I asked my daughter if she could see that. She said, "No!"

Then I saw more vehicles going by, a whole train of trucks strung together, then a gas station, then a whole construction site. I asked my daughter if she saw any of that. She said, "No!" I started to think I needed help, because it wasn't real. I thought I should commit myself to a mental hospital to rest.

Then I saw a black neighborhood and it seemed very violent and it was very unpleasant.

The rest of the dream then change to being in the house and trying to find the bathroom.

07/26/96 -- In my dream, I was walking down a street, and I saw the beautiful girl from School that I have a crush on. We  talked, about what I don't remember, but then she said she had to go to the bathroom, and I told her, my house is near here, so I took her to the bathroom, and in the hallway of my home she stripped completely naked, went into the bathroom, and closed the door. I waited for her to come out, but she wasn't, so I went in there, and she disappeared.

07/10/96 -- Various times I have dreamt that I am pregnant, but eventually there is always a problem in my pregnancy. A friend or family member is usually with me. Once I was with my friend in his minivan. It was winter, I was wrapped in an ivory blanket and I was barefoot. another time I was in a hospital and my cousin was with me, she was going to use the bathroom, but the white toilet was covered in menstrual blood. The room was a pale gray and it was dimly lit. Another time I was scared because I could no longer feel the baby, my best friend took me to an apartment where I was supposedly living. It was old and gray, she told me not to worry then laid down next to me on the bed. My friend in the minivan and my cousin also told me not to worry about it. My friend in the minivan, who is male, was taking care of me. In this dream I knew that I got pregnant because I had been with a friend, I don't know exactly who it was. We were both drunk and somehow I got pregnant.

08/29/96 I had a dream that I woke up and just knew somebody was in my closet. I reached for my gun, that was beside my bed on a hamper. But I couldn't find it, or rather, feel it. I was very afraid, and breathing heavily. Then I woke up, in my dream, and repeated the scene again. I woke up again in my dream, feeling relieved that the nightmare was over. But it wasn't. I repeated the scene again, this time, able to reach my gun. I walked out of my room, and could see the living room. It was covered in shredded paper. I noticed how much of a mess it was, but I was also afraid. Then I woke up again in my dream. Repeating it all over again. Only this time when I walked out of my room, I did not see shredded paper. Instead, to my left I could see the bathroom door was opened. Inside the bathroom I could see a tub with a shower curtain over it. I knew somebody was behind it. I held my gun, shaking, and as the person started to come out from behind it, I froze. I couldn't squeeze the trigger. Then I realized it was my dad. I yelled at him. I said, "Are you crazy? I could have shot you. You are lucky I was too scared to shoot. Why didn't you tell me you were coming?" Then we went into my room, sat down on my bed, and started eating no-bake, oatmeal cookies, which he had in a dish.

08/11/96 While looking through the classifieds, I found an add for a job. A local pet shop wanted someone to come in and amuse their kittens. This sounded like the perfect job for me. I wondered if they would hire me, and if one could actually make a living entertaining kittens. These questions were never answered, because the scene faded immediately.Now I found myself in the ladies room at Walmart. Not only was it filthy - one of the toilets was overflowing, and the floor was under two inches of water. I went out to the customer service desk to get someone to fix it., but the lady there said all the employees were afraid to go in, because it was haunted. I was highly annoyed (I really had to go), but they wouldn't be swayed."I don't believe in ghosts", I said."We do!" she answered.Finally a woman and a male employee (who looked and acted a lot like "Lurch" from the "Addams Family") went into the bathroom. Immediately they came back. The woman was unconscious and Lurch had to carry her out. Both were disheveled and bloody. The ghost had attacked them. Evidently, I had been wrong - although the ghost hadn't done anything to me. Then I went home (to an apartment house I don't live in). A neighbor's door was open. She was on the phone with a friend. She looked a lot like Crystal Gayle, and was a medium or spiritualist who had written couple of books about her experiences with the spirit world. A group of her friends, all writers, had written an anthology about the subject as well. Their book was in my hand, but for some reason I had no time to do more than skim through it. One of the writers was very upset, telling the woman on the phone that there were at least thirteen entities in her apartment, which distressed her because it was a small apartment and was very crowded. I was able to see her spirit visitors too - people from several different time periods and cultures. The lady was also very agitated because she thought that all this spirit activity foretold approaching disaster.Then I was out in a parking lot in front of the building. A friend, his 11 year old daughter, a younger girl, a man who was supposed to be my grandfather and I were all sitting on the running board of a rusty 30's vintage sedan. My friend's daughter had heard that smoke kept away evil spirits, and wanted a cigarette. I lit one for her,and the looked to see a tornado ripping up the town a mile or so away. It was followed by a second one -and then a third, much closer.I pointed to it, and said to my grandfather, "Papa, look at that!""Everybody get inside!" he said.Since the tornado was very close now, that seemed like a good idea. I picked up the young child, and we all ran to the building. Cars were flying into the air, just like in the movies. As we ran into the house, and  I pulled the door shut, I wondered if going up to the second floor was such a good idea. I thought that we might be better off braking into the cellar instead. Then, I woke up.

***********

11/04/96 -- I had this dream when I was about three or four years old. It sounds a little funny, but it scared the hell out of me at the time. I woke up one night in a cold sweat. As I said, I was only about three or four. I am now 18. I had a dream that my mom had gone in the bathroom and used the toilet. When she flushed it, blades came up out of the toilet and it basically blended her into little pieces. I can remember the end of the dream when my sister and I were sweeping pieces of my mom off of the floor. Years later, when I wasn't quite as young or embarrassed about the dream, I talked to my mom about it and we both just simply laughed as I described it to her. No, I'm not some serial axe murderer tinkering with the internet like you might suspect. I just had a scary dream as a little boy, and now I am asking you to please help me  decipher this dream, and whether or not it had any meaning to it! Thanks a lot!

12-15-96 - DREAM - I was laying on my bed and a nurse came in to prepare my right ear for a surgical procedure. She said the doctor was going to clean out my right ear. She put some medication in my ear to dull any possible pain. I waited for the doctor to come but never saw him. Meanwhile, my right ear felt wide open but numb. I got up and went to the bathroom and while there I had a vision of a memory of seeing the doctor. He was swarthy skinned and wore dark rimmed glasses and a dark blue suit. I assumed at that point that I had had the surgery and just didn't remember it.

12-20-96 - DREAM - Today was the first day of school. It was Tuesday and the day the Scouts wore their uniforms to class.

My son Tom wore his blue cub scout shirt and tie to class. He had received it from the landlord. Another man who worked for the school had on his boyscout leader jacket.

I saw this and said I needed to go get my scout leader uniform on also. Mine would be a skirt and a jacket. I found the skirt on the hangar and it turned out that my husband had borrowed my jacket so I needed to get it back from him.

The next few minutes I spent getting to the school bathroom to put on the uniform and on the way which I think holds the music instrument.... The BUGLE... the trumpet?

I again saw the music.

1-3-97 - MEDITATION - I saw a little square that was labeled "Master Plan"'. It was followed by a larger square that was labeled, "Poison in the Sky". That was followed by a third box labeled, "Poison in the Sky".

I slipped into a dream. I was in my apartment looking out onto a larger expanse of sky. I noticed a bottom corner of the window and a small triangle of glass was missing. I knew immediately that something was wrong and that an intruder had come in. I looked and looked for something out of place for a clue....something missing. I had on a stereo with loud music. Suddenly that seemed foolish because the intruder might come back and know I was there. so, I shut off the stereo to attain quiet and for some reason, went to bed and was painting the white stereo speaker with brown paint or stain.

Some people (woman dressed in grey coveralls) came in who said they were the maintenance crew. They looked at the ceiling and told me the ceiling fan had burned out. What I saw was that the ceiling fan was gone.

Two little boys came in and said that he had left the bathroom ceiling fan on and went away. so, the crew was working on the ceiling fan.

Joe came in with Pat and I was going to tell him to bring me another car and I'd just write him a check for cash but he got away and left before I could do that.

NOTE: Interestingly, in 1999, there were thousands of reports of criss cross airplane contrails in the sky which was dropping something that made people very ill and some even died from their illnesses.

1-7-97 - DREAM - I was waking up from a nap. I saw my daughter Jeanne out the window. I thought, "I hope she doesn't know I've been napping."

I put on black shoes on over another pair of black shoes, thinking of an excuse in case someone asked me that I didn't want to get the inner pair dirty.

I opened my bedroom door and a very tall man was coming out of the bathroom across the hall. The entire bathroom was rose colored and the light in the bathroom was rose colored as well.

The man was an artist from Chicago and my daughter Jeanne asked him to paint a picture for her. At the same time, I was vacuuming the floor around the piano in the front parlor where a little girl was practicing her music. The little girl was my smaller self. I told her it wasn't enough to play a song just once, it had to be played over and over again to perfect it.

I continued to clean and trim away the excess from everywhere in the living area.

*****************

1-9-97 - MEDITATION - "Everything is going as planned. Continue packing and getting ready to move." I had a vision of T.M. coming to see me.

DREAM - I was in the bathroom. I noticed that the tile looked a little dirty in one spot, so I took a wet rag and rubbed on the spot. The spot looked even smudgier, but looked cleaner a little over farther. I rubbed again and noticed that the tile had been painted over with a stencil paint roller. The wall underneath was blue and stenciled over with green, so the more I tried to clean, the more green stencil came off. Then I noticed that the green stencil was painted over tape that was holding paper on the wall that was hiding open space between pipes in the wall. The paper was taped in the corner on the upper left. So the more I tried to clean the more shoddy work I uncovered. I thought about calling this to my husband's attention, then remembered he was leaving on vacation and probably wouldn't be back for a week. I thought I should probably fix it myself and be done with it because I had a roll of paper in the kitchen. A young man came into the room, either a son or brother. I sent him to the kitchen to get the roll of paper. He came back with the wrong roll of paper. On top of the roll it said, 4 p.m. and had the America On Line Logo on top.

1-19-97 - DREAM - I attended a party in a place that was like a warehouse or something similar. I knew all the people and it seemed like I was in charge of something because a large side door was open to a dark outside and one of the women complained that it didn't need to be open. I went out the door to take a look whether it was necessary for access and it wasn't so I went back inside and closed the doors. I went to a table and sat down to talk to some women. An Indian type man walked up behind me and put his hand on my head. He seemed to trace some energies on my head by feeling certain bumps and then pronounced that I was the one.

He pressed a certain point on top of my head and I started to feel like I was going to pass out. but it also felt like the pressure I get around my head when I meditate and go into trance so I decided not to fight the feeling and just go with it. I began to have a series of visions of different types of indians dancing and then changed more cartoonish and each scene was of different kinds of white people in various styles of clothing.

I'm not sure if each scene represented one of my lifetimes or if each scene was just of a different kind of people though I sense its the former.

I woke up and then meditated on the dream. Spirit brought me a white book. I could read what it said at the time but can't remember it now. I was given two pages from the book to take with me.

I went back to bed and fell asleep. I found myself waking up from a nap at 2 p.m. on a couch in my office at work. I saw what the other women were doing and noticed that there were workmen outside. They were re-landscaping the place, had torn out a huge old tree and replaced it with two baby saplings. I decided to go outside and question them about watering procedures so I could take care of the new little trees to make sure they would live. I saw a flash of light in my head. I shook my head a little and continued on down the stairs. When I got to the double doors, I saw it was dark outside and everyone had left. The doors were open and on the stoop were two rubber mats. On my left was a darker colored map and it said Chupacabra on top and then had the story of what a Chupacabras was printed on the mat. Outside the right hand door, was a larger white mat which said UFO'S AND EXTRATERRESTRIALS with a story about them printed on the mat.

My concern was that foot traffic would wear the story off the mats so people couldn't see it anymore. I went back up the stairs trying to figure out how the missing time occurred and what I had done during that time, remembering the flash of light in my head.

For some reason I now had three pair of slacks in my hands an tried to put a pair on while I was walking, but I couldn't get both feet into the same pair of slacks. I had a pink, brown, and black pair. I went to the bathroom to sit down and put on a pair and everyone followed me into the bathroom to ask me questions. One of the women was Dorian Lord from One Life to Live and I started to ask her about the missing time when my physical phone rang and woke me up.

Mar. 97 - "Waiting For The Bus..." by Sandra

I was about four or five and I dreamed that a beautiful double-decker multicolored bus loaded with people floated up to my bed and was waiting for me. I got up and tried to climb unto it but it was so light and airy that I couldn't. That's when I woke up and my parents were standing beside me next to the bathroom. I remember being upset because I wanted to be on that bus.

*****************

Posted by Josephine Goodman on July 06, 1997

Dream on July 5, 1997: I am standing in the bathroom and I see that the wall plaster has been crumbling in large piles into and around the tub. I go into the next room and tell my husband that we must move because the walls are crumbling. He doesn't believe me. I go back into the bathroom. Now there is a bookshelf there with a lot of my books. The wall behind it dissolves and the bookshelf falls. I look through the hole and see it has landed on the lower floor of the building.

There are rows of seats like a theatre or auditorium. The shelf and books have fallen on top of some seats, shattering them. I feel glad no one was sitting there, as they could have been injured. I go down and into a series of offices, with very narrow corridors to talk to someone about moving.I think about whether I want to take my books back upstairs or wait and pack them to go to the new place.

In the next dream of that night, I am walking around an inside,second floor balcony and looking into the central area. I see a large tree there, with some birds with very long beaks that have rounded ends. I feel confused about whether the scene is inside or outside.

I believe the interpretation of the crumbling walls and falling books has to do with the crumbling of belief structures and old systems. The tree in the central area could be a new tree of knowledge.

THIS IS AN INSTANT MESSAGE CONVERSATION BETWEEN DEE AND JOE

7 23-97. This occurred after we met on-line but before we met in person.

Dee777: Hi Sweetheart. What a night

JMason4557: good morning. How'd it go?

Dee777: I woke up saying, "We're never going to have another peaceful night are we? " It was incredible  

JMason4557: What does it mean?

Dee777: what does fractal mean? I haven't written down the dream I just woke up from.

JMason4557: It is form the new science of Chaos theory. It's about repeating patterns across scales...the way many things are... It has important symbolism too. You should write it down now, so you don't forget anything.

Dee777: I wrote down the fractal part.

JMason4557: Good. There was a dream with it?

Dee777: Geez yes! What a night. let me start. I'll skip the first vision and go right to the dream. I heard a voice say, "I thought we were going to be alone," then I saw a fountain in a pool, then I saw the earth as a ball whoosh up the fountain to the top where it exploded in a zillion pieces. I heard the words "fractal images" and each piece of the earth came down and became a window casing with glass in it. Each window was going to be presented to me to look at separately.

I went into another dream where you and I were in a house/hospital sort of place. It was old and there was an operating room. I was sitting in a chair that was a half circle with a railing around it made out of wood and I was in a hallway. A young man was there I would say about 12 and he was asked to watch a light fixture to keep his eye on it so to speak. because it was sparking, the woman there was going to hand him a key in case something went wrong, because there was a large chest there...sort of like an ice chest.

But the young man had to go to the bathroom so bad, he couldn't stand still, so I took the key and watched the light fixture for him, a nurse came by and asked where the boy was and I explained the situation and she was very upset. She expected the young boy to do as he was told and not walk away, however, the light fixture began to SMOKE. All the other people in the place saw the sparking and smoking and began to walk outside quietly and deliberately trying not to fan the sparks into fire. I took my half round chair outside with me, and sat in the yard and you were standing by my shoulder, we watched as the house/hospital went up in flames, There was a black woman watching us as I was sitting in the chair. I said I felt "loopy" which to me meant exhausted or something like that, I was half laying down in the chair, and watching that black woman watching us. and I said, "we're never going to have another peaceful night are we?" You said, "You can feel loopy all you want, I'll be here,"

JMason4557: Oh Darling...it is all involved with my material. It is about the nature of creation and about the Great Change. ...more..the computer you are going inside is in my head, and in the spirit world of knowledge.

Dee777: WOW!

JMason4557: I wish I could explain it all now, but its too much. I will be telling you.

Dee777: ok. let me tell you my vision.

JMason4557: Yes, please.

Dee777: I was laying on the bed thinking about traveling to California for a vacation and driving up the coast, when a woman came and sat down on the bed with me, She appeared on my right side. She reached over to her right with her hand, and brought back a round crystal ball about an inch or more in diameter. It was sort of a crystal green. There was either a protrusion coming down from it or that was a shaft of light. She said, "What is this for? Self-protection? She flipped it over so the ball was still in her palm, but the protrusion/shaft of light went up through her fingers, She said, "This is the way you hold it to use it." As she faded from view, I felt a loud hum in my left ear and the blinds rattled,

JMason4557: Wow! What do you think it means?

Dee777: I don't know, but maybe I should look for a crystal ball like that.

JMason4557: Yes. Good idea. Can you tell me what the black woman in the dream looked like?

Dee777: Hmmm! I would say she was in her 30's or 40's. maybe about 5'5 of 5'6. Just a regular black person, normal weight .

JMason4557: Pretty? Do you remember her clothing?

Dee777: I don't recall anything special about her. No , she wasn't pretty...very plain I would say. Short knee length dress, dark colored. Her hair was short...I think with picinniny type braids or those braid they wear now...about 3 inches long I think .

JMason4557: I think she is the Mother Goddess in this time cycle, like Kali has been appearing as a black woman.

Dee777: She was sitting quite a distance away watching me. She didn't mind that I was feeling loopy either. What a dumb word. I've got the key to the blue chest .

JMason4557: In my writing about the Tree of Life, I used some quotes about the Dark Sterile Mother," and how it relates to the change, and the idea of Kether moving into Daath.

Dee777: what about the light fixture smoking and the house burning up? It was an old house...like built in the 20's or earlier. tall with an attic. It feels like we were going to rebuild the house.

JMason4557: I think it is about the earth change. The house is the earth...the physical reality. Each person's "house" will be burned by fire...but the new reality will replace it. It is a symbolism for the change.

Dee777: good

JMason4557: Yes, we are the "builders," co-creators. Yes...good.

Dee777: we were just watching it happen. There was no sad emotion with it. It was almost like it was inevitable.

JMason4557: Yes...it is wonderfully good. I am sending a fractal.

Dee777: good. I watched the people in the operating room walking out...they didn't want to fan the sparks into flames. There were two women there who put on pink jackets which had white sort of striping but the stripes weren't even in width..kind of wavy striping. They dressed identical to each other. They looked like twins.

JMason4557: That fits too.

Dee777: They moved slowly but deliberately ...slowly Does that make sense?

JMason4557: Yes.Please look at the fractal now.

Mandelbrot Set Formation (jpg)

JMason4557: Then go here:

Dee777: I've got a painting on my web page that looks like that but it's got butterflies painted on it. It's gorgeous. I put it on both web sites.

Dee777: okay. so what exactly is fractal again?

JMason4557: The "Butterfly Effect" is part of fractal/chaos theory, and very symbolic...and about Transformation. I'm sending another picture.

JMason4557: Carlson's Fractal Gallery (3-D Looking)

Roger Hamstra's Silk Purse Graphics: Fractals

Computer & Fractal Art - Roger Hamstra

Dee777: I fell in love with it the instant I saw it.

JMason4557: Look at these later. The star?

Dee777: These are gorgeous The mandelbrot. They used a word in my dream that I didn't even know. Interesting.

JMason4557: There was an 8 foot circle out along a tram line in the formation. I had started to write about the symbolism of the Mandelbrot and Chaos theory 13 months before the formation appeared.

Dee777: who created the Mandelbrot in the first place, Honey?

JMason4557: The 8 foot circle in a computer-generated Mandelbrot is out along the "tip" or projection. In my speculations, that represented the planet earth. A coincidence had happened where a similar shape was formed by something dropped into water...it formed a similar pattern, with a single round drop of water up in the air..like the earth was in your dream.

Dee777: yes! that's it.

JMason4557: After the crop formation appeared, I remembered that I had made a printout of that area some years before. I found it...it was the picture I sent of the star. It is the Unity Star, and was associated with Horus and Bel Marduke, who were sons in trinities. It was also associated with Apollo. Another speculation is that it is associated with the worship of the scarab beetle. It is shaped like the body of the mandelbrot. It rolls a ball of mud around, and plants its seed therein, as the Creator rolls the earth around with the Cosmic Seed of Man. Hon, gotta go now.

Dee777: ok sweetie. have a wonderful day.

JMason4557: Benoit Mandelbrot discovered the pattern through using his intuition. The crop formation appeared near where he went to college, on August 11, 1991. The eclipse of 1999 will be on that day. Bye honey. XXX

Dee777: Bye. Love you! XXXX

JMason4557: I love you too. XXXX see ya tonight.

Dee777: ok! XXX

JMason4557: X bye

***********************

8-12-97 Dream: I was at work at my new job. I was there all day and working hard, but by the end of the day I realized I still hadn't done anything for the company. I had my hair in rollers and realized I'd better get them out before the boss came in. I went to the bathroom to comb my hair out and instead of being blonde it was dark brown and glossy. The more I combed it the less curly it got until it was straight exactly like it is not except darker. I had to go meet a friend who worked in the next building but I knew that if I tried sneaking past the building outside everyone would know it was me by the clothes I was wearing which was large blue and white checks. So, I tried to go through and building and couldn't find my way. There were so many people leaving work and I forgot my master keys to the doors. So, I went down to get the mail and brought it back upstairs. There were lots of duplicates of metaphysical catalogs. I also found lots of Christmas cards and I kept thinking it must be Christmas until I realized they were from last year and I had saved them. I half woke up and went back to sleep. Now I was in bed feeling guilty for not getting up and doing my job. I finally got out of bed and discovered my neighbor woman doing a plumbing job I should have been doing and she was trying hard but doing a bad job of it.

I told her I'll be right back as I had to get dressed. As I woke up my dream voice said, "It's 9:09:28". I rolled out of bed, went into the livingroom to look at the clock and that's exactly what time it was.

by Dee

*******************

9-12-97 - Dream: I was getting ready for my trip and dying my hair black. I started at 6 p.m. on the clock. It was taking a long time and while I was doing it, I had visitors.

Joe came in some fashion and we exchanged words of love. I couldn't remember seeing him, so it could have been a phone conversation or on the computer.

My Mother and Father came. My Father was like a presence. I did not actually see him. My mother sat on the floor dressed in black. Her hair was three toned, black at the roots, brown further up and blonde in the center. My Mother just smiled. My Father wanted to know who I had told about the trip. I thought about it and said, "Almost no one, but I told my ex-husband first." My Father was pleased with that and they left. R.R. arrived and began cooking breakfast for himself. He cooked things I don't have in my house - toast, eggs, and bacon. He ate it while I was rinsing my hair. It was now 6:30 p.m. on the clock. I went into the bathroom and turned on the water. It gushed rusty orange, then went clear - I rinsed my hair but it never got wet and the clothes that were piled neatly in the sink never got wet either.

I went to comb my hair then and the hair was two tone. It was black except for a pure white triangle in the center of my head. There was no hair at all in the front of my head. Then I noticed I was wearing a green scarf with curlers under it in front and felt stupid that I hadn't taken the curlers out. I combed it out and it was now all brown and standing on end and then went back to normal reddish color.

R..R. finished eating and after I complained about having no hair, he showed me the back of his head. It was shaved except for a black section down the back center like a mini mohawk hairdo.

He then pointed out a small bookcase too me. He said, "There are 36 individual books here for children. Then he reached into another bookcase and handed me three books. He said, "Here! Read these...the three bears ...Sun Bear, Jean Bear, and ... (I woke up while he was saying the last one and didn't get it.)

*****************

10-3-97 - Dream - I was at a large company and I was in charge of supervising maintenance. Lee, Maria (a Mexican woman) (from my UFO group) and I went to the 3rd floor and got a vacuum cleaner. Lee said he would carry it downstairs. He slid it down the railing. I found a guitar leaning against the wall and picked that up along the way.

I got down to the 1st floor and discovered 3 men (Executives) having a discussion in the middle of the stairway. I hurried Lee and Maria back up the stairs to the next landing where they wouldn't be seen and had Maria guard the guitar. I had Lee vacuum the 2nd floor. I ran into the bathroom because I discovered I was naked from the waist down. The bathroom turned out to be a lounge instead of a bathroom and I made a big deal out of telling that to Maria.

by Dee

****************

10-3-97 - I was at A.C. working on the 4th floor. Three men came down the hall looking for a specific woman. They followed me into the bathroom and continued to talk to me despite the fact that there were other women in there. They finally arrested one woman only to find out she was an undercover cop herself and she had a hidden radio in her hat. She accidentally let it fall out of the 4th floor window and they were watching it float down.. I could see the hat and it had a feather on it and it was beige.

I walked down the hall and we heard a tremendous crash outside. We all ran to the window and saw a car crash outside. It was so violent, one of the cars was thrown up into a tree. I heard someone say the accident happened because someone dropped a hat.

by Dee

****************

10-4-97 DREAM - I went down to 61st and Center Sts with a woman to have my car looked at to see what was wrong with it. The man there realized the car had been worked on there before. He was going to determine if it needed to be replaced or not.

From there I went with the same woman and Becky. They wanted to look at jewelry, but that seemed a waste of my time and I met some other people I decided to go to the fair with. A man named Norman decided he wanted to go to Capital Drive.

I escaped from his car at a garage when he stopped for gas. I got to the bathroom and found I was naked. I ran from the bathroom to bathroom to hide myself until I made it somewhere on the East side where I got another car

As I drove on Center St. a grey car pulled out in front of me and blocked my car. So, I came to a stop so I wouldn't hit him, he pulled out a machine gun and started to shoot at me through the windshield. I shone a flashlight in his face and he couldn't hit me.

I escaped and went up to Capital Drive where it was dark. I forgot to signal my turn and I didn't have my headlights on. I was surprised I didn't get arrested. I drove back down to Center St. where another car pulled in front of me and started to shoot at me through the windshield. Again I shone the flashlight in his face and he couldn't get me.

This happened 4 times total. Each time the shooter was Oriental.

I then got out of my car and ran up the stairs to escape but the Orientals followed me. I saw the boss man Chairman Mao and some of his henchmen coming up the stairs. He intended to kill me personally.

A tall, thin, Chinese man and a tall, thin, Chinese woman came down the hall acting like they were drunk. They blocked the stairway where Chairman Mao was coming up.

The Chinese woman began to sing a Chinese religious song which by tradition forced Chairman Mao and the others to put their hands up in the air and close their eyes. When they closed their eyes, the tall, thin, Oriental man told me to run to the right down the hall and go into another room and use the Pickar technique to escape.

***************

10-23-97 -DREAM - I was living in a new apartment and discovered that the bathroom was in the next building over. I thought it was real strange that my apartment building didn't have it's own bathroom. I intended to look for it later. I went into the bathroom and discovered it had 12 foot ceilings and the walls were light green. I could hear people's voices from other bathrooms when I was in there.

When I came back out of the bathroom, I said to myself, "I'm not going to want to go outside to the bathroom all winter." I went into my apartment and found I was living with many women. I asked one what time it was and she said it was 12:30p.m. I was shocked because I thought Joe had just left for work and he leaves at 5:30a.m. "How could it have gotten so late?"

I was rushing around trying to get dressed and asked another woman what time it was. She said it was 10:30a.m. That felt a little better but I was still late and I still had to put panty hose on. I was trying to find the right pair without runs and finally found a pair that had beige slacks on the inside of them. I finally found a pair and reached down to put them and discovered that I already had some on.

There were two woman wrestling on the bed behind me and one woman was trying to strangle the other one with a blue satin jacket around her neck and face. I was worried about the woman being strangled but saw that she was still smiling and laughing so I let it continue. When the woman finally got up I was that she was not as she had appeared. She was ugly and had her hair cut like a man. I was really disgusted by the change in her.

A man came to demonstrate a carpet cleaner and I could see a wet streak on the brown carpet where he had tested it, but I didn't think the carpet was dirty to begin with. But a woman took a white flowered skirt and wiped it over the wet streak and said, "Look! It didn't leave any stain on my white garment. We should use him."

I asked another woman what time it was and she said, 9:30a.m. That was better but I was still late.

I ran out of the apartment and wanted to take a shortcut through the hallway where I worked on the 1st floor. A black man came in and was leering at me, suggestively. He kept following me so I ran away uphill yelling, "Help! Help!" He just laughed.

Then I tried to take a shortcut through the 1st floor factory, but big square agricultural threshing machines were being brought out through the tunnel, so I couldn't go through the tunnel. The machines were orange/brown and square and really big Each machine had a two man crew, one to drive it and one to direct it. Every which way I turned, a machine was coming my way. I was becoming trapped by the machines. Finally, I was completely surround by these huge machines and trapped and feeling a great deal of fear, the morphed into white washing machines that were triangle shaped. There were 6 of them.

I was completely surrounded and scared half out of my wits. One man said, "All you have to do is touch it, and it will move. I put my hand out and the machine instantly moved backwards. I as elated and the machine moved backwards out of my way and I continued on into work.

When I got upstairs, I saw two women coming up the stairs as though they were one. Their feet moved in unison. They were dressed in orange paisley material. As they whirled around the corner to the left, the leftmost woman threw off the rightmost woman onto the floor and she lay there like a beached whale.

I went into my office and discovered that I was on time afterall. All the offices were decorated for Christmas. I found m gifts which were already purchased and prepared and put them under the trees in my office. Two little black boys sat there expectantly and I said to them, "It looks like it's going to be someone's birthday!" And we were all happy.

**************

10-26-97 - DREAM - (I named this one THE EPIC SCARE)

I was in a big city. I was lost or looking for some place. I went down a hill and turned a corner. I saw an open car repair garage and went inside and asked if I could use their telephone. He said, "No! Everyone is sleeping and you'd wake them up."

I saw many men sleeping on the floor in various positions. I said I understood and turned to leave. The door was no longer open and I couldn't get out.

There was a white stairway leading to the top of the hill. I asked the man if he could unlock the door and let me out. He said, "No! I've only been able to make it half way up the stairs for years." There appeared to be about 36 stairs and he could only make it to 18 which he demonstrated for me.

The big open door I had come through on the way down was now closed and it appeared we were now sunk about 6 feet under the ground. The windows were at ground level up that far. I asked him if he could open the door and let me out. He said, "No! If I open the door, all the dirt will fall in. I said, "Can't you boost me up and break a window and let me out?" He said, "No! I can't damage the door." I said, "Then I'll have to do it myself" I sort of flew upward and out the window because I refused to take "No!" for an answer and refused to be trapped in that hole.

I went to my apartment where I lived with my new husband. (I don't know who it was)(His face at first was Ralph - a Jehovah's witness, but then morphed according to his behavior and moods. His size and stature also morphed as his moods and attitudes changed.)

I liked my apartment. It was pretty large and had several other rooms besides the livingroom. (I didn't see the kitchen or bathroom)

Right next to the door, I discovered 4 other doors about 1 foot wide which led into other people's apartments and the doors were all open. These doors were 1 East, 2 South, and 1 West. It made me feel very vulnerable and worried that these people could just walk in and take anything they wanted.

The door to the hallway was also open as well as the apartment across the hall and people walked in and out at will. It made me nervous. I heard a voice in the bedroom and saw that someone was drunk and rolled up in a dark blue jean type sleeping bag and blanket and moaning. My heart sank. It was Edward, my ex-husband. He had found me and moved right in.

I went into the livingroom and called the police. They came and rousted Edward, but they didn't arrest him and didn't make him leave because he hadn't done anything wrong.

I stood side by side in the livingroom with my new husband who looked like nobody I knew at this point and waited for the confrontation between the two men and me.

Edward walked over to me. He was about 6'2" tall, blonde, crew cut hair, younger than I've ever seen him, and piercing light blue eyes with no pupils in them that I saw.

He said, "Does he give you deep kisses that last 25 seconds?" I said, "No!" in a timid scared voice. He said, "Okay!" His head had turned sideways to the left, his body had turned into a blue and white being of wood as he spoke.

The confrontation was over and Edward decided he was going to live with us. I was too scared to confront him again.

I had gone into another room or to work. My husband came in to complain about my ex-husband making a mess in the apartment and not cleaning up after himself. I said, "Mr. Perfection never does anything for himself. Everyone else has to make it that way for him."

Edward appeared in one more room to make a long religious statement, again in his morphed blue and white wood being body and I was scared of him but cannot remember what he said.

10-31-97 - DREAM - I was going to clean the house and I looked over at the vacuum cleaner. It was a tank type like a fat silver bomb shape or torpedo shape. It's handle and wand and hose stood on end with the head up in the air writhing and threatening me like a snake about to strike.

I felt threatened but refused to be intimidated. I went over to it and grabbed it right behind the head and proceeded to tie the hose into several knots. Nevertheless it managed to squirm its head loose and bit me once like an electrical jolt on the back of my left hand. I shoved the head down the front end of a water pipe so that if it tried to strike again, it would electrocute itself.

I then spent some time showing a guy how well the cleaner cleaned the rug like a carpet shampooer. It was very spotty cleaned. It wasn't good enough, so I took it down to the basement garage. A black neighbor named Bud (means 'herald') (Note: In the next dream this same guy says his name is Nash - short for National and was musclebound)

I shoved the cleaner all the way across the garage floor and he took it away.

I then met another old black woman friend whose name is Marcella (means 'warring') She and I were friends - then turned enemies over a man's affections. She lived in the same building as me but way over on the other end. I decided to go see where she lived and use her bathroom. She took me into a long series of twisting hallways and past doorways that were hard to get past.

When I got inside her apartment, it was huge. The floors were dark brown wood, all the furniture was dark brown wood and antique. It seemed quite dark, but the rooms were very large and there were so many of them. I told her she had a wonderful apartment. She said, "I have the whole deck". I looked out one door and there was a huge concrete terrace with walls around it with doric-like pillars under the railing.

In another direction, the huge door went out to a huge parking structure where hundreds of cars were parked and in the westerly direction were also hundreds of cars parked.

At that point it felt like we were in the middle of a parking garage and I no longer thought it was so great and I asked where the bathroom was because where I thought the bathroom was, was another parking lot filled with cars.

Subj: 10-8-97 THE MAGNIFICENT DREAM
Date: 97-10-08 12:37:00 EDT

Let me preface this dream by saying that I don't think this dream was meant just for me, but for 'everyman'.

That means you should pick out the part you feel comfortable in, put yourself into this dream, and do your part too. I believe that this dreams explains all the reasons why I am where I am now, why I've gone through everything I've gone through in life We can all find our places in this dream.

Love, Light & Joy,

10-8-97 - THE MAGNIFICENT DREAM

I went to the hotel I was going to manage. There didn't seem to be any bosses to ask questions of, but there were lots of people with needs and who needed help. Nobody was being fed to start with. I went to the kitchen and found meat half ground up for sausage, but the machine was dirty, the sausage half dried up. I cranked the handle once and it was a mess, the old dried up meat was mixed with the new meat. I knew I'd have to throw out all the old meat and start over fresh.

For every task that needed a machine, I saw 100 machines standing there waiting to be used to do the job, but there was nobody doing the jobs and the machines were old and antiquated and not up to the task of the modern day life style.

Every time someone came up to me, I had to find a solution to the problem, find a machine to do the job and find a person who could do the job. This went on for hours and hours and I saw hundreds and hundreds of types of machines. They were all white and all lined up waiting for workers to turn them on to do their job.

I went upstairs and looked out the window where the sun was shining brilliantly. I felt like I had been asleep for years. I heard water running in the bathroom. I looked at the clock and saw that it was 9:30 a.m. and my mother was in the bathroom getting washed up to start the day and she had needs to be taken care of.

I went back downstairs feeling quite naked and undressed for work. A woman brought me a beautiful heavy brocade, multicolored robe to put on that one of her ancestors had worn. It was really heavy but when I put it on, it fit perfectly like it was made for me, and it felt wonderful to wear it.

Three women came up to me. One of them was black. They began to sing a song about God and how God had said he would provide a wagon for every task that needed doing. In my mind I knew that I had had a dream earlier in the night about a wagon my children had brought me full of books and I knew that if I looked in the Concordance to the Bible I'd find the answers to my dreams in that way because the symbolism was in the Bible.

I took the black woman by the hand, and she in turn took the hand of the next woman, and that woman in turn took the hand of the next woman. They continued singing about God, and I led them to the next room where my baby was being cared for.

I went into the room where my baby was and asked for the baby. The woman caring for the baby had him wrapped in a black towel. I took the baby from her to hold him. She started to hand me all kinds of other things to care for him, a pink diaper bag and hundreds of bottles of formula.

I said, "No! You can keep all those things and throw away all the old formula, I will be feeding the baby from my own breast and nurse him back to health.

I told the singers to stand there and keep singing their songs and carried the baby with me to the kitchen where people were lining up to be fed.

There were workers appearing now also, and I gave each one a small task to do and overall the first step towards feeding the people would get done.

I heard a lion roar out the window and saw a magnificent lion roaring, sensing danger over the hill which was quite near. I knew there wasn't much time to get done what had to be done because something was on the other side of that hill coming towards us that we needed to be prepared for.

A man came and asked me for help. He said he needed a train engine to perform a particular task. I told him that all the trains we had were too old for the task, but I'd get him a new modern engine to handle the job.

At that moment, I knew why I had spent the last 11 years learning how to problem solve, because no matter what the problem was, I knew how to find the solution to it. I asked the man to bring me the yellow pages from the phone book, intending to find a train engine manufacturer, to make a new engine for the man.

Then I asked another person where the light switch was for the hotel and I went over and pushed the button and all the lights came on. We were now ready to start the day's work.

11-1-97 - DREAM - A man came to give me very important information. He dressed himself in black pants like Joe's pajamas to give it to me. It was number 6339 and consisted of printed words and music many pages long. The man fed it into my computer. It was VERY important.

After I received the information, I was to be arrested and taken somewhere. I escaped by saying I had to go to the bathroom, but I knew I'd have to return.

I left the building and walked downhill to a big store where they sold clothing and jewelry. In the first department they were selling dark blue clothing and a black woman was trying it on. I went to the next department where they sold jewelry and I wanted some I could wear with either dark blue or light blue.

The jewelry was beautiful ranging from silver to crystal to blown glass figures of Christ and the colors of jewelry ranged from dark blue, down through light blue to white to clear. I couldn't decide on one piece because it was all so beautiful. Many were crucifixes of Christ. The woman suggested that I buy a gold lame purse and she showed it to me. I told her I already had one like it. (I really do)

I left the store then to go back up hill to meet the man to go wherever I supposed to go. While I was climbing the hill someone kept telling me to hurry because something was going to blow up and it was almost time.

I had to get around a big trench in the ground surrounded by concrete and topped with a big wire fence.

I finally made it back up the hill. By now, I had forgotten the words and music the main black and white had given me, so he came to give it to me again. I saw the numbers 6339 and the scanning of the document began again. I began to wake up as it scanned and I knew I could read it out loud, but it was slipping away.

I woke up angry because I couldn't bring this beautiful piece of important information back with me.

11-1-97 - DREAM - I was in a large public building that had apartments in it. It was my job to inspect the apartments and made sure they were ready for new people to move into them.

This was Saturday night and I made arrangements with the current tenants to show their apartments on Sunday morning at 10::00 a.m. thought my usual hours were 9 a.m.

There were contracted workmen in the hallway doing major repairs discussing how some people couldn't work in spaces that were 4 or 5 inches wide and wanted to know who had made the last major screwup. Damage was so bad that no one had figured out how to fix it yet. I saw a hole in the wall that was about 3 feet x 3 feet with a black screen over it. I had to admit it was a woman who had done the damage and her name was Mary.

I had to go to the bathroom out in the public hallway by the front door and when I got there I heard a man screaming. It frightened me so much, I ran back up the hallway as fast as I could and it seemed slow motion. I felt as though I was the half-crazed man myself crying out in agony.

To get back into the main hallway, I had to go through 6 arched doorways to get through without making oneself into a squashed image of oneself. I had to rip the curtain from the door to open the door. All the doorways were back to back so that by opening one, you still had the rest to contend with. Each of these doorways had a curtain on it of a religious figure bigger than life yet obscuring the door itself. I managed to get 5 of them open and the last one had a picture of a huge eye pasted on it. I had to pull the picture of the eye off the door to find the door itself and yanked it open to find myself inside the building which was now a chaotic shambles of its former self.

The crazed man had beat me there somehow and tore all the furnishings into shreds everywhere I looked.

I came upon a stunned woman and asked her if 911 had been called. She said that the man had hurt his hand early in the morning and had been treated for his injuries but now the anesthesia had worn off and he couldn't stand the pain.

I realized that so much damage had been done by the half-crazed man that it would never be he same again.

The image that came to mind was of Christ with nails driven through the palms of his hands.

1-6-98 - DREAM - I was at my New Berlin house out in the yard sitting under the apple tree. I looked down at myself and saw that my pink dress was too thin and see-thru and I would have to go into the house and put a slip on under the dress.

(I can't remember if I did this) I then looked down at my dress which was now a brown suit and again it was too thin and see-thru and I would have to climb the hill to the house and put a slip on.

I climbed the hill which was steeper and higher than normal. I went into the house, thru the kitchen, up the 4 steps to the hallway and past the bathroom whereupon I encountered 3 narrow gates to the rest of the house. I was trying to figure out how these gates worked when my three sons, Mike, Tom, and Bob came. (they were young teens)

I could see beyond the gates that they had completely stripped all the walls and carpeting out  and the entire house was full of electronic equipment. I started screaming at them, "I was promised that there would still be room for me to live here."

1-20-98 - DREAM - I was at a very large place like a hotel. They were putting on some kind of lecture when they were going to show a film. The program hadn't started yet. I actually was sleeping in the front lobby by a gasoline pump and people were being interviewed by television crews right outside the window.

I didn't want to be seen like that, so took off down the hall and ended up in the auditorium where the film was going to be shown.

On a long, narrow table, 4 film canisters were lined up. Being very curious, I took canister #4 with me to the bathroom. It was very heavy and I wondered how anyone could carry two at a time. I sat down on the toilet intending to look at it while I was sitting there. One of the female film presenters came in the bathroom to ask me if I knew where a particular person was. I quickly hid the canister #4 under my dress while she talked to me. I was still sitting there like that when I woke up.

1-30-98 - DREAM - I was writing my mother. N.M. came to visit and my brother came over. I told N.M that my brother Marty had all the Seth books. Marty said he didn't know if he had them anymore. I told N.M. that Marty had more books that I had. I felt proud of that. Everyone went outside to play baseball but me. I had to go to the bathroom then and there . There was strange man and woman I didn't know living there. The man was in the bathroom and threw him clothes all over the place. I had to kick them aside to close the bathroom door, which was a swinging door that opened both ways and didn't lock.

2-14-98 - DREAM - I was living in the city. My husband wanted me to go to the store with him. We actually got through and I said I needed to go to the bathroom first before we went up and down the aisles to pick out the food.

But, when we pulled up to the store, I found out my test score for something electronic. My score was 1.63. had something belonged to my boss and I had to take it upstairs before I shopped. I excused myself and took the electronic object upstairs. As soon as I got there, the phone rang, and Laura (An ex-co-worker) was expecting me to start working right then. I didn't even know I was scheduled. had to put her off for 5 minutes, so I could go back downstairs and tell my husband I had to work.

When I got downstairs, I heard some co-workers say they were going to interview S. B. for the Manager's job. I blurted out. "Oh! S.B.? I know him. (He has preceded me in one job and got fired and I replaced him. In the next job where I was Manager, he was hired to manage another building for the same company) They wanted to ask me what I knew about him. But I had to go upstairs and work, so I went back upstairs.

In the hallway, outside my door, numerous people were sitting on the floor gambling and playing card games. Right up against my door, they had piled garbage which I had to help someone move before I could in the door. The door was glass rather than wood. I just barely got inside my door and my bosses showed up and walked right in. I had no privacy at all.

2-18-98 - DREAM - I was 5 p.m. and I was anxious to see Joe at his new apartment. I called him on the phone at 874-5374 = (11) and got Robin (an old friend) I then tried 874-5323 = (11) and still didn't get him. So, I went to his apartment and found his clothes all over the place. I started helping Joe pick up the clothes. Joe was in the bathroom when I got there. We hung his clothes in the closet. There was something large in the center of his closet under a yellow blanket, but hung the clothes on either side of it.

Several of Joe's friend came in to thank me for helping him and hugged me.

NOTE: Joe had a very similar dream at the exact same time about doing his laundry and having trouble with it and needed help because his clothes were all over the place. In his closet was a yellow washing machine.

6-13-98 - DREAM - I was with Joe and we were in California, but we were at someone else's house. This place was huge and had a very large banquet type hall. We were there on Joe's birthday, but it wasn't just for his birthday that we were there, they were honoring him for his artwork because it had become known worldwide.

We were happy being together and for the honor, but I was having a problem. My psychic abilities had developed to the point where I couldn't always tell the real from the unreal.

Joe and I were sitting by ourselves in a room prior to the banquet and up on the ceiling, at the center point where there was a circular nipple shape-like decoration like some old houses have where the center lights have been removed, some tiny movie stars and singers began to appear and put on a show for me. Bobby Darin and Frank Sinatra were two of the singers. I was watching this tiny show and I said to Joe, "You can't see this show up on the ceiling can you?"

He said, "No!" I felt sorry for him for missing the wonderful entertainment, but then I went to he bathroom and combed my hair and when I came out, I was in a hallway and saw a young teenage girl in another room. As I got closer, she moved away from the door and I began to worry that it wasn't real. I could still see the girl's presence by her shadow and her voice, but the closer I got to the door, the farther she moved back. Finally, I reached the door. In my mind, I was still worrying whether she was real or not and she came forward and began speaking to me and asked me if I had seen her friend Victoria. (means triumphant) Just then, another teenage girl came down the hall and the two girls greeted each other warmly and I began to feel a sense of relief that this scene was probably real because they were full size people and having a normal conversation.

I then went back out into the banquet hall where people were gathering. I saw a strange looking older man in a child's high chair and though everything else looked normal, I got a queasy feeling again that this wasn't real. I looked for Joe. I spotted him sitting on a chair down near the end of the tables
