Dreamcatcher: spirit lady 3/13/12

spirit lady 3/13/12

leaving loft killer to sleep on the couch i went to my room and was laying in my bed, im my dream, and kept getting weird sensations. Finally i said to the spirit "I know you are there, you can communicate to me if you would like" suddenly I was over come with that Tingling feeling and wave of overwhelming energy surge that i associate with spiritual experiences, or learning something new that your brain and body don't know how to process. She was there, the ghost of my house, but she wasn't very good at communicating. I could feel her presence, but couldn't tell what she wanted. I kept waking up, rolling over then going back to sleep and being in that inbetween state where you know that you are dreaming and its easier to talk to ghosts. She never took a steady form, but more just pulsated in and out of the room. Then other things started to appear and come into my bed. First it was a black cat, which might have been her, the cat was snuggly and just wanted attention, which i was fine with cause laying in bed with a cuddly creature is always fun. Then there was two cats or the cat changed into black,grey and white striped kitty. The next cuddly thing to enter my bed was my ex-girlfriend lindsey, which was also welcome, but i knew she wasn't real. I would have my arms around her, come into waking, realize i was holding a pillow, close my eyes and go back to holding her, or petting the cat. The whole time the spirit was there, just being ominous and flitting around.

(this is the second time i have talked to/ been aware of her presence, still not sure what she wants, maybe just to hangout some? I only see her when im half way into the dream world.)

2nd Dream, Lost Burn.

It was burningman, and I came by myself this year, didnt have a camp or anything, just put up my tent and went exploring. It must have been the first day cause everything was still being set up. The first thing I noticed was a huge, close to life size colosseum made out of ply wood. Wow I thought, that is the biggest thing that has ever been at the burn, it was massive! As i was wandering around i realized that i had set up my tent without taking any land marks, i was by myself, and didnt know at all where my stuff was. This is going to be impossible I thought to myself, there is no way i'm going to be able to find where my tent is. there were other unusual things about this burn, such as the presence of trees. Commenting on this strange phenomenon to a passer by, they said that it was because we were closer to the mountains this year instead of in the middle of the playa, which kinda made sense.

Everything is kinda blurry, but i remember seeing a bunch of frinz, andrea and conny, and a bunch of others then leaving cause i was so obsesssed with getting to my lost tent, which i found eventually, then left again once i collected my backpack full of goodies. There was a booth giving out pad thai, and I was stoked to have a plate being as hungry as I was. Then back to the colosseum. The thing was so massive it was hard to believe......some other stuff hen i woke up.

Meaning of Dreams

This is one of the most valued pieces of furniture. It's where we sleep, rest, restore our minds and bodies and engage in sexual pleasure. The bed is symbolic of all of these things. The bed could also symbolise the bridge between the conscious and the unconscious (i.e. our daily lives and the great unknown, our spirit and our psychological undercurrent). The quality and the cleanliness of the bed in our dreams may say something about the way we feel about ourselves, and our relationships. In reality we "make our own bed," so the dream may reflect that bed and remind us that we have to either change it or lie in it. If there were things hiding under the bed in your dream, it may symbolise secrets that you or others are keeping. If you dream that you are lying in bed, your unconscious may be warning you about potential health problems.

Do not be afraid to face the situation. If you see a white cat, then it denotes difficult times.

Meaning of Dreams

Cats have both positive and negative connotations. You need to consider all of the details in the dream in order to obtain accurate interpretation. The cat can be a symbol of sexuality, femininity, prosperity and power. A cat is also an independent animal, and in your dream you may be associating yourself or someone else with these characteristics. Usually the dream is telling you about yourself and not others. Historically black cats have been symbols of evil and bad luck. If you are a cat lover and have one as a pet, the symbolism may not apply to your dream. Old, superstition-based dream interpretations say that a cat is a bad omen and that you can expect deceit from those that you trust

Whats Your Sign Animal Symbolism

Cat Symbolism

As an ancient symbolic Celtic animal, the cat represents the guardian of the Otherworld (or Underworld, depending which texts you read from various regions). Stoic, silent and mysterious, cats fit the bill of Otherworld guardians quite well. They keep the secrets of the Otherworld eternally to themselves, as they gaze with guile upon a world that does not see or understand the depth of their knowledge. However, black cats in Celtic lore were considered evil, and were sacrificed.

In Western tradition, black cats have been associated with witchcraft. This is due to black being associated with supposed perils of the night, and the cat is associated with transformation just as the veil of night shifts our perception of reality.

However, in Ancient Rome the cat was sacred to Diana, the moon goddess. Here the cat was also considered a guardian of homes and a symbol of domestic goodness.

In Muslim lore, the cat is honored for saving Mohammad from an attack by a fierce snake. Here it is believed the “M” marking on the forehead of many tabby cats is the mark of the prophet (”M” for Mohammad).

In Norse legend the cat is depicted drawing the chariot of their fertility goddess, Freyja, and therefore the cat is thought of as a blessing upon newborns and a good omen for those increasing their family ranks.

In ancient Egypt cats were sacred and were even depicted on the head of their lunar goddess, Bastet which was worshipped by the ancient Egyptians. In her honor, cats were even mummified along with mice for them to eat.

Here's a quick-list for cat animal symbolism:

Astute
Clever
Secretive
Mysterious

Supernatural
Watchfulness
Selective
Independent

Cats themselves are quite resourceful and tend to give us messages of change, flexibility of adaptability. Often, when a cat makes an uncommon appearance in our lives it is a message for us to shake up our habitual routines and make some fresh changes in our lives, as well as be more flexible in our thinking.

Cats can also be quite aloof, and this too is often a message for us to distance ourselves from people or situations. Sometimes the best cure for a problem is to step away from it - the cat inherently realizes this, and we would be wise to recognize this need as well.

Lastly, the cat animal symbolism is about mystery. Unfortunately, its unpredictability has given the cat a bad name in some areas of folk lore, specifically witchcraft. When, in actuality, this is an asset that can be harnessed by us humans.

Sometimes displaying very strange behavior and antics, you can never really pin a cat down. Simply put, the cat animal symbolism is synonymous with creativity and psychic power because of its sometimes unorthodox & “mysterious” behavior. This is also reflected in the Tarot deck as we see the cat in the Queen of Wands card.

The good news is, this mystery is a message to us that we have the power over illusion. Cat animal symbolism reminds us to not fall prey to false beliefs, to not be a fool out of ignorance and derive understanding from our own internal wisdom. The cat beckons us to realize that when we turn within to our own hearts, minds and souls, and trust in ourselves we will always be shown the truth of matters.

Goddess Realm Animal Totems

The cat is the bearer of secrets. It knows all the old secrets that have been forgotten a long time ago. It moves freely through space and time. Since it maintains silence most of the time, it is difficult to learn the things that it knows. Seeing a cat (or any feline) in your dreams is a hint that there may be secrets within you or others of which you do not know. If the power of the cat is strong in a person, that person will have a very particular kind of perceptiveness. By using reflection, he will recognize the true selves of others along with his own identity. He will also discover the daily ritual of self-deception.

The Dictionary of Symbols

A symbol of individuality—of private thoughts. The windows symbolize the possibility of understanding and of passing through to the external and
the beyond, and are also an illustration of any idea of communication. Hence, a
closed room lacking windows may be symbolic of virginity, according to Frazer,
and also of other kinds of non-communication. Many rites involving the
enclosureimage are performed to mark the reaching of puberty, all over the world.
The legend about Danae, shut up by her father in a bronze tower, pertains to this
particular symbolism. There is a Siberian legend concerning a ‘dark house of iron’
which is also relevant to it (21). We might also mention the ‘vase with a lid’, one
of the eight emblems of good luck in Chinese Buddhism, and a symbol of wholeness, of the idea with no ‘exit’, or, in other words, of supreme intelligence triumphant over birth and death (signified respectively by the doors and windows of
the room) (5). This explains why the hermetically sealed room may possibly be
a variant form of the ‘vase with a lid’.

Dream Moods

To dream that you are in a room, represents a particular aspect of yourself or a specific relationship. Dreams about various rooms often relate to hidden areas of the conscious mind and different aspects of your personality. If the room is welcoming or comfortable, then it signifies opulence and satisfaction in life. If you see a dark or confined room, then it denotes that you feel trapped or repressed in a situation.

To dream that you find or discover a new room, suggests that you are developing new strengths and taking on new roles. You may be growing emotionally. Consider what you find in the discovered room as it may indicate repressed memories, fears, or rejected emotions. Alternatively, such rooms are symbolic of neglected skills or rejected potential.

To dream that you are in an empty white room, indicates a fresh start. It is like a blank canvas where you want to start life anew. Alternatively, the dream means that you are trying to isolate yourself. You do not want any outside influences.

To dream of a yellow room, suggests that you need to use your mind. You are feeling stimulated mentally.
