(Monday, March 25, 2024) full moon eclipse Libra / tarot ten of cups

Dream 1:

I had a dream yesterday I didn’t write down that turned out to be prescient. The main components of the dream are two half-cylinder batteries touching each other. I find them on the floor in front of me and a friendly engineer takes me down to the lower level to show me how he invented the devices. This morning, in waking life after the Winter Storm Warning ended, my neighbor planned to clear our driveway with his gas-powered Toro snowblower, but it failed before he could finish. I used my little EGO electric snowblower. The “heart attack snow” was so wet and heavy that I had to recharge the twin lithium batteries.

Strong haunted elements are at the beginning of the dream, perhaps because my uncle Arlo just died, my aunt Mary is near death and my uncle Alan is dying from dementia.

Dream 2:

This morning’s dream seems to take place at the same location as yesterday’s dream, a multilevel office complex. In this dream I notice plumbing near windows. The pipes are coated with streams of shiny magenta glass that look like falling water. Even so, there is no danger.

The prescient element of this dream might be the “falling water.” The winter storm we had created a few ice dams on local houses.

Odd my daily tarot is the nightmare card. I didn’t have a bad dream.

I dream a few of us are doing research to help my sister Jo, who is quite impatient. It might be an investigation about her health. We sit at a long white table, facing her. We create information codes on cards and hand them to her.

The dream changes. Now we are meeting with Jo via Zoom. I tell her about my long skirt made of multiple fabrics stitched together. A rainbow of colors. I move two white tables, almost like opening a gate, so she can see all of the round yards of textiles hanging behind me, on a wall to my right.

Day notes:

This dream reminds me of the biblical story of Joseph and the coat of many colors. Joseph’s siblings betray him. I haven’t had that experience.

(Tuesday, March 19, 2024) waxing gibbous moon Leo / tarot Moon

I live in England, in a very old one-story red-brick house attached to others on the city street. I head out the rear door, to the cobble-stone alley. I look back at the tall, narrow windows. A thin, middle-aged man with blond, wavy long hair is impatiently waiting for me. I step into his vehicle and he drives me out to the countryside, dropping me off at a beautiful spot that looks like York, or perhaps Somerset. Wooded, not pastured, near a tiny blue creek.

I have anxiety about being far from my urban house: I don’t know the hiking path for my return. No map. People are ambling between the trees, and I meet a friendly, dark-haired younger woman who can help me find my way home. We walk through the forest and visit many pleasurable cottages and shops. After spending good times together, I notice I am carrying a moist (unfired) red-clay piece in my hands. It is the head of a woman. I give it to my new friend, who knows nothing about clay and sculpture, so she is a bit startled.

Day notes:

There is a 25-acre woodland in Somerset called Combe Hill Wood, close to where I stayed at Jill Purce’s retreat in Compton Dundon. Yesterday I talked to Denisea about her 60th birthday, and that happily reminded me of England. I looked up the Tor again today because of this dream and was reminded of the myth that the Grail is buried beneath it.

I woke up with joy to spend much of my night in the British Isles. The dream feels like a small fairy tale.

The tall hill where I could view the Tor and Compton Dundon. I walked here every morning.

The fairy house at the root of a tree at Lake Harriet, which has been there for many years.
