Today's dream: Red sunset & an arrow to the knee

in #dreams5 years ago (edited)

Going to uni

I was going to university again for some reason. I think I was studying law (there were people talking about lawyers). Because it was hard to arrive on foot, I hired a neighbour that always gives us rides. The ride was with around 3 children and 2 more adults (7 people in a car, and there may have been more). I looked out the window and saw that the sky was completely red.

I was amazed by how red it was. It was like it was on fire. I looked at it for a while and exclaimed at its beauty. When we arrived at the university, I immediately got down to watch it not through the glass but with my eyes directly. It was... grey... what was red was the window. I was extremely disappointed!

I was at the university, so I had to go in. That was when I noticed I was missing all my books, notebooks and everything. I told the people behind me and the driver said

Well, if you give me $1, I will go back, get your books, rent a hotel room beside the university and leave them there for you.

I answered

Well, just for my comfort, I don't think $1 is worth it.

(Yes, I'm a bit retarded in my dreams)

In my house

Arrows!

Next thing I remember, I was at my house near the kitchen. I was walking from the living room to the kitchen, and in the hallway between the two of them, to the left, there was a door leading to our guest room. Inside, there were a couple of high-ranking military officers and a few other people. In my mind, it was as if a whole army platoon had set up camp inside my house.

I walked beside the door and saw an arrow coming out and striking something. It was at my knee height. I think someone was struck or something broke. Someone near me said:

Look, we can't see the trajectory of the arrow. We don't know who shot it. It's very clever. We should do the same to them.

And so I grabbed something to shoot at them. I don't know if it was bow and arrow or a gun, and walked to the place. It was like this Chinese character: 門, except that in the low place between the legs, there was another square like a painting's frame. I crouched and pointed my shooting-tool to the room, to someone I saw sitting, and shot through the square. I shot a few times and immediately left.

Somehow I knew what was happening inside. Someone had died, one of the two officers inside, and the other one was looking all paranoid, trying to find a way to shoot at the person responsible. He grabbed the bow and arrow and started shooting at the square (I wasn't there anymore). He shot like 9 times and they were very fast and strong shots.

I simply walked away to the kitchen and then to the backyard, where I saw that my parents were looking showing something to my brother near the bicycles. They were pointing at this thing, but their bodies covered it for me. I went there all curious and when I looked left, I noticed that through the window of the guest house, I could see the face of a sleeping girl. She slightly opened her eyes to look at me just as I looked and I felt as if she had some sixth sense that allowed her to know everything like me in my dreams. It was scary.

I went to my parents, then went back to the kitchen and someone said that there was no internet. I saw that inside the guest room, the guests had disconnected the internet (the main internet connection from the street landed there) and had plugged in their own ethernet cables. I looked at a screen and the LAN network was supposed to be made of green items, but it was made of red items, as if they had the only internet nodes, and I was mad at them and wanted to recover my internet connection.

I woke up at right about that moment because my neighbour decided that drilling concrete is a very fitting early-morning activity. :) Got a headache and I'm sleepy, but I enjoyed my dream.

Those dream characters that know much and have access to many information are the most interesting ones. Some prove to be very entertaining and insightful. It's always worth time and dream energy to talk to them. I once had a an encounter with a dream character in a lucid dream that was more lucid then me and even had more control over the dream environment than myself. I like powerful dream characters very much.

I'd like the chance to do that kind of stuff in my dreams. I need to learn to realise I'm in dreams and stabilise them. D:

Stabilization is a skill that can be easily trained. If you have a hard time, attaining lucidity, you could try keeping consciousness while falling asleep. Do you know how to "ride" hypnagogia, the images that appear when falling asleep? When they form and you keep concentrate on them condensing, you will suddenly be in the dream.
I did just practise that while in the aiplane home. Being very tired from an intense project week it was easy to fall asleep, watch the images and get sucked into the dreamscape. The hypnagogig images get more dense, more detailed, they also do follow your attention. Then after a very brief "black out" I was in a dream, wandering around having a dream body, creating portals to travel. Then a turbulence woke me. This repeated several times.

I've tried several times, but all I manage is stay awake for more than an hour paying attention to the little lights, and then I either forget that I'm paying attention or I kinda "surrender" and let myself fall asleep because I get too tired of being attentive. I also get itchy and have the urge to scratch my nose, face and body.

What do you mean drilling concrete early in the morning is not proper behavior?

Wakes me up :( With a terrible headache. We're in a very quiet residential area.
