2/3/25 Denise Comes to Visit

Denise has come to visit. I was not expecting her. We are standing outside. All of a sudden, Denise’s right shoulder blade spontaneously catches on fire. I push her to the ground and get the fire out.

Dave and Marsha are at my house (not waking life). Denise and I are inside with them. I have a hard time introducing them to each other because I am having trouble remembering their names! I do remember, but it takes a while. Dave has slept in the basement bedroom that does not have a roof over it. That is where Denise will sleep.

I tell Denise that Paul and I are going to buy a new house. I tell her about the garage that is huge with a dirt floor and no roof. I see it in my mind’s eye.

Day notes: starting to copy VHS’s to DVD’s. These are old movies and they bring up memories of old times.

I worked on this dream with Kathleen and Shaney. This is what I wrote: If this were my dream, a part of me that Denise represents has come to visit unexpectedly. Maybe it is a part of me I am not that well acquainted with or forgot about. Her right shoulder blade spontaneously combusts. This freaks me out. I push her to the ground to put it out. This could be a positive image- something to do with creativity? I think of the shoulder blades as being expressive especially when I see an animal like a cat move-similar to a dance move. The right side could have to do with the future. Maybe it is something I am not ready for? (to have my memories changed?) Dave and Marsha-trouble with my memory. Dave stays in the basement bedroom without a roof. There is no protection from the elements. However, the room is open to the sky. The roof could represent memory. Dave could represent masculine energy-the action principal. Denise could represent feminine energy. That energy is also going to experience the no roof bedroom. Paul and I are to move to a new house with a large, tall garage with no roof and a dirt floor. It is empty. So, if this has to do with memory, maybe it is an opportunity to revisit my old memories with the realization they can be changed or reinterpreted. Looking at these DVD;s is bringing back the time in my life a good 38-39 years ago. Maybe, they will help me bring back more positive memories especially any self-criticism.

Ideas from Kathleen and Shaney. A garage could represent memory because it is a place where things are stored. Memories can be malleable. The song: Happy Like a Room without a Roof by Pharrell Williams.

1/17/25 Getting Married

I am going to get married to Paul again. I go to pick up my wedding dress. The woman at the shop says she can’t clean it. I was in the store waiting for it to be cleaned. The woman still charges me $2 and this makes me angry. She could have just told me she couldn’t do it.

I go to the church. I see Janet Little and say hi. There are people around. I climb these stairs to go to a room where I will put make-up on and get ready for photos. The church is nice and old.

Earlier I see a brother of the groom who will be the best man. I am an observer. He stands next to the groom. It is not Paul.

A scene where I am swimming on my back in the nude. I see I have too much fat on my belly. (true in waking life!)

Feeling: I am really not into the wedding. I am nonchalant. I am young.

1/15/25 Two Dreams: Teaching and Losing Markus

  1. I am a teacher. I am writing sentences on a blackboard and leaving blanks where words would go. The students have to fill in the blanks. The students are young adults. Both the students and I enjoy ourselves. There is a woman who has a sheet cake. I start to put things away. A scene where a woman buries a statue upside down in the ground.

2. Paul and I have Markus and Rowan. They are both the same size. I see them ahead of me walking side by side. We are to have Markus first for a day. And then Rowan for a day. Paul, Markus and I stop by the beach. Markus goes down on these rocks and I fill a bucket with sand. I see some white minerals in the water. I look up and cannot see Markus. I yell his name. I ask Paul to find him. He doesn’t get up right away. I plead with him. I think there were other kids around. Did he follow them? Did he fall in the water? Did he go back to where Rowan is? Markus is around four years old. (in waking life he is two years old)
