About Dreams Again

Dreams about teeth falling out of my mouth are always unpleasant. Usually, a few days after such a dream, I get a message about somebody’s passing. When there is blood in the dream + teeth falling out – it means a message about a relative’s death. No blood in such a dream + loose teeth = a message about an unrelated person’s death.

Raw meat in a dream, in my case always means somebody’s illness. If somebody is eating raw meat in a dream, it  usually means that persons ailment. The more meat they are eating in my dream, the more serious the ailment is.

A dream about eating a cake, or someone eating it, is often a message about that person's temporary and less serious state of not feeling well.

When I put raw meat in a freezer or a fridge (in my dream), later I am informed about a scare related to somebody’s health condition. F I manage to place that meat in the fridge/freezer, that initial health concern usually appears just a scare, though.

Not always, my dreams have a sensible meaning, or are a sign of a message that comes a few days later. Some are just a mystery and remain a mystery. Perhaps, they might have been my astral and time travels, who knows.

#1 That dream came about two/three years ago. I was on one of the main streets in my home town. That street (Starowiejska St.) leads from the city center (situated by the sea) to the railway station. Most buildings in Starowiejska St. are four or five-story houses. In that dream, I knew a huge flood was coming. I was telling people to go to the roof tops to find shelter as, somehow,  I was sure they would be safe there. When the flood came (from the sea), the wave was higher than a five-story house at the end of the street, closer to the city center. It flooded the entire street and everybody who stayed at its lower level. After the flood, in one of the buildings on that street, a shelter for the flood refugees was established.

This year, there was a severe flood in the nearby county. I am not sure the dream about the flood in my home town, was related to that tragic event that took place in Texas. Most probably not.

Before that real life flood, I had a dream in which I took out of my mouth a half of my broken lower jaw. The dream experience was very unpleasant. Many people lost their lives in that county flood, which came a few days later.

 #2 The scenery and people in that dream looked like taken from a futuristic movie. We (and many other people) were resting somewhere in the open air. What I knew - we were not close to our home. Some men, who looked like "Mad Max" show characters, had rifles/guns. Everybody was wondering in which direction they should go, to find shelter. 

I said, “ We can’t go to the north, it’s only decay and destruction there. Let’s hide in the south, it’s safe there."

Hopefully both dream #1 and #2 were just weird dreams not any sort of premonition.

#3 In that dream I could see big neon-like yellow capital letters hanging in the air in front of myself. The neon sign was:

"SUGGESTED TIME OF DEATH: 2079 VI p.m."

A voice said, “On Friday, in some kind of an accident”.

A message from a paralel world? 2079 is quite far from now. Nevertheless, I would rather not know what the message meant.

#4 We were looking for a new home. Each of the buildings we visited, had rooms full of people. They were really overcrowded. Finally, we found a brand new block of flats/apartment hose. There were other people waiting to see the inside of the house, as well. A few green spirits came and said they would give us a tour inside the house. When the two of us were telling our guide how many rooms we would want to have, the spirit told us that the rooms for us were not ready.

When I woke up,  I thought of the line “There are many rooms in my Father’s house.” I am glad the rooms for us are not ready, yet.

Dreams about my space travels are a totally different matter.

UPDATE:

Other dream themes and what their meaning according to my dream "experience":

- light red blood in a dream = joy, health/a positive message;

- clear, clean water + good health/ positive events;

lots of hair/hairy legs = most likely some money coming/something positive is "around the corner".

About Dreams

Do you happen to have vivid and/or weird dreams?

It is said that if you remember such a dream even after decades, it means it really happened.

Two examples of such vivid dreams here.

1. I had that dream in the 1990s. In the dream, it was 2021. There was a library at the top of a very tall building. I flew there and got to the music section. I thought I would check what they had on Led Zeppelin. I looked through the files - there was plenty of music data and information related to some strange ethnic bands whom I had never heard of, but nothing about Led Zeppelin. I couldn't believe it. I was astonished - no band names or singers I recognized.

Why did I think about Led Zeppelin in that dream? I do not know.

2. That dream came about 10 years later. I could see bright, white light all around me, and I was part of that light at the same time. I could feel total calmness, peace, joy, and happiness. It felt so very good, and I wanted it to last forever. 

I thought to myself, "I don't want to wake up".

At the very moment, I heard a voice said, "You have to".

And I did wake up at once. It was very disappointing. At least I felt like that - I was disappointed the dream ended.

In my dreams I happen to go through walls, fly to the outer space, create things and make them appear with the power of my mind. Once, I went back to the year 1917 and people there asked me who would win WW1. Then, still in the same dream, I moved to 1956 and was asked again what would the future bring. In both cases I answered "it is not for me to tell".

Another time, while watching a movie on TV,  I was able to put my hands through the television screen and take from the film set whatever I liked there. It was so cool. I wish I could do it all in real.

On the other hand, the dreams I like best are the ones when I am able to heal people and animals, or bring a dry and dead plant back to life, make it green again. It all - just with the touch of my hands.

About Superstitions

In the book "Krasna Amerika" (Beautiful America), several superstitions popular among the Czech people are mentioned. It seems to me that some of the superstitions are quite "international" ones, as I have heard about them before. Here are a few examples. Are you familiar with any one of them? 

1. When four people shake hands crossing them, some of their relations will get married soon.

2. To save the bees when their owner dies, one should knock on the hive and tell them that their carer has died.

3. Rain on Good Friday is a sign of a very dry year coming.

4. When two sisters get married on the same day, one of them will be unlucky.

 

5. A swallow's nest between the roof beams brings good luck to the house dwellers.

6. If a girl wants to get married next year, she should not look in any mirror on the last day of the current year.

7. Cover the mirrors (for a few days) in the house when somebody dies in it and there is a coffin too. If anybody sees the reflection of the coffin in a mirror, they will die soon.

 

8. When somebody dies in a house, a window needs to be open to let the soul go out.

 

9. Do not start new projects on Friday - it brings bad luck. Friday - bad beginning.

 

10. Spiders are supposed to bring money.

11. Washing feet in a stream on Maundy Thursday is supposed to bring good health during the entire year.

12. Sweeping around somebody's feet is supposed to bring bad luck to that person.

13. A dream about teeth loss - you will learn about somebody's death soon.

Bad/good omens I have learnt about in my family:

• Shaking hands over a threshold brings parting of the two persons is coming soon. So shaking hands while standing in the doorway was always avoided.
  
• Finding a spider in your home is a sign of good luck. I used to have a neighbor who would have never killed a spider, even when it was found in a bathtub. He too believed that "lucky/happy is the home where the spiders are".
  
• Regarding superstition no. 13
  When I dream about loose teeth + blood = sometime later, I learn about a passing of a relative. Loose teeth and no blood in a dream = soon I am told about a death of an acquaintance. This actually runs in our family. My mom's dreams of that kind announce the same future facts.
