Friday's

Dear Peregrin,

I was in TGI Fridays with my parents and Marc, a guy that I am seeing. I saw Evan, another guy that I kinda like and invited him over. He came over and my parents and he were talking about my engagement to him. Marc disappeared. Next I picked up me phone to call him and I could hear him saying to a friend "after all this time tonight I was going to ask her out for real...commitment and all but Evan (the other guy} won and I won't interfere with her happiness." I tried to talk to him and tell him no, I love him but he couldn't hear me. I screamed and shouted but my phone was broken I tried to call him on the other line but his line was busy. I looked in the phone book for his parents # but the phone book was locked.

Grandmother's Pet Rats

Dear Peregrin,

My Grandmother lives in a tacky house, (old, broken windows, dirty, falling apart). I go to visit her and discover that her house is swarming with rats. They are crawling all around her house. Its a disgusting sight anyway, but made worse by the fact that some of the rats are sick and have open sores on their bodies. My grandmother is feeding these rats. When I ask her why in the world she is feeding rats, she tells me they are her 'babies'; that she is taking care of them. I am very upset with my grandmother because she is, in my opinion, doing a ridiculous thing. In the dream, my anger and frustration with her lack of awareness is intense.

Pregnancy

Dear Peregrin,

The past 1 month occasionally and the past 4-5 days consecetively I've had these dreams. I dream that I've been putting on weight becoz I'm pregnant and there's nothing I can do about it.

The pregnancies are always unexpected and unwanted. In 1 dream I was considering an abortion...but my mom wouldn't let me.....and in all the dreams, I'm having difficulty coping with the problem....I do not know how 2 handle the situation.

What could these dreams be trying to tell me? I know there's some hidden message.....coz they have been continuously occuring.

thanx,

Elephant Aquarium

Dear Peregrin,

Hi! I had a dream last night that was wacky. I remember having an aquarium and in it, it had two 'floors'; each one had a tiny, live elephant that was very healthy and happy. There was a couple fishes, but mostly live sea anemones (those animals that look like plants). On the bottom 'floor' there was a cat fish that would get in the way of things, but the elephant would successful fight it off, and on the top floor, there was a squid-like animal. You won't believe this, but the elephant was pulling candy out of the stomach of the squid, as if it was a bag. Every creature was pretty much happy, but I was concerned that there was so much in there, it would be difficult to keep it clean. Then I realized that they needed each other and even the algae to stay healthy. The only reason I was nervous was because I didn't want anything to go wrong, and it was out of my control, and what I could affect I wanted to do well.

Incidentally, the candy that was in the squid was a black, square, wrapped anise taffy that my grandmother had put there. It was old candy, but tasted really nicely. My grandmother, who is in real life very old (95) and not in good health was healthy and stood on her own and totally straight posture in my dream. She was healthy and dessed in brown fur-- from her skirt to her coat and hat. She was giving me something, along with $33,000 that she said was owed to me.

What do you think about this wacky dream?

Thanks,

Liz

Blurred Vision

Dear Peregrin,

I recently had a dream that has been on my mind. I dreamt that I was on a college campus and I could not see clearly. I kept stating that I could not see where I was going. Everything was a blur. Also, I went to an eye doctor and was looking for new eyeglasses. The the frames I wanted were very small. The doctor kept telling me not to choose these frames and the dream ended.

Right now, I am going through some changes in my life involving career and love. In my career, I want to find my life purpose or vocation. In my love life or lack thereof, I have been wanting to connect with someone special. This has been very important to me because I have not had a loving relationship with a guy in years. Thanks for any information about this dream.

The Tree

Dear Peregrin,

I was standing in my front yard watching two men wearing yellow hard hats (like electric co.) who were standing in the road looking at a pole (electric/telephone??) that was leaning dangerously. The ground in which the pole was standing had become infirm (soft because of saturation from too much rain, although it wasn't raining at the time) and unable to support the pole. The pole was in imminent danger of falling and upon falling, would hit an electrical wire which would cause devastation (electrocution). The men left (presumably to report it and get help). As soon as they departed, the pole fell. It missed the electrical wire, however, it fell across the roadway blocking passage. (once the pole hit the ground, it took on the appearance of a tree - no limbs, however, it was covered in bark) This was a huge tree trunk. I stood there for a second or two wondering if I should phone 911. Before I could do anything a large tractor trailer truck came and drove over the middle of the tree/pole smashing the center and making passage possible. The sides, however, were in the way and needed to be removed. I stood there looking at it wondering if I should still call 911, when a man on a yellow riding lawnmower (he was wearing a hat but I can't recall what kind - it shadowed his face making identification impossible - in fact, I did not recognize any of the individuals involved) with a blade on the front drove up and pushed the rest of the debris blocking the road away. I turned and went inside my house.

Improperly Dressed

Dear Peregrin,

I have an administrative position for a large medical group. In this dream I am at one of our health centers. It is large, there are many floor levels, many people. I'm not dressed properly, I'm wearing an old T-shirt and shorts and no bra. I'm embarrassed about my looks, hoping no one will notice. A bus of new patients arrives. I go outside to greet them. I direct them inside, leading them to where they need to go. I'm still embarrassed about my appearance, but make up for it by being exceptionally accommodating and treating them well. I seat them and ask what kind of magazine they would like while they wait. I find just the right kind for them. An observing doctor is pleased at my actions, not seeming to notice my appearance. A final image is one of papers being stapled along the edges with many staples.

Lots of Twisters

Dear Peregrin,

I have had two dreams about tornado. One involved my father and grand father in a car running from a tornado. We drove to a house and my father and I made it inside my grandfather did not. That is all I can remember about that dream. The other happened last night and I remember even less - the only thing that stands out in my mind was that I saw a tornado. I know their has been a lot of hoop-la over the movie Twister, but I think their is more to it than just that. Thanks for your help.

Talking With Joel

Dear Peregrin,

I am a teacher about to begin my third year. It was the summer after my first year that I had this particular dream. It was probably one of the most vivid dreams I have ever had. It occurred in July of 1995, and I still remember it clearly. Here is my journal entry from the next morning: As I went to bed last night, I was overcome with pain and sorrow over my parents and the idea/realization that they would die and leave me. My concept of death is irregular because of the suddenness of those I've experienced lately. I felt like I was cowering in a deep corner of my soul where no on (not even my husband) could reach me. I felt totally alone. I got up and went into the living room to cry. I prayed to God for peace. I flipped on the TV, and there was a show on about the Shroud of Turin. After watching it for a while, I felt better, so I went back to bed; it was time to go back. I had a hard time falling asleep, but holding on to Dean made me feel loved and safe. My sleeping was fitful; I kept waking up. But I eventually fell into a deep sleep. I dreamed that it was the first day of school, but I wasn't in the town I teach in. I was in a school that looked like my old high school. The classroom was packed; there were way more than 30 kids. I make a mental note to ask about the class size thing: was it necessary? I felt a little out of control, not like I was used to, and it seemed like the kids knew it, too. Things weren't going the way I had planned; there were behavior problems, interruptions, groups of four trouping up to the pencil sharpener...I new I had to get a hold of things. Also, Joel was there (our social teacher who had died unexpectantly in April). He was sitting in a desk in the far middle of the room, observing and listening. He was wearing a sea green shaker sweater and khaki pants and had his "old-lady" glasses (drug-store glasses that helped him read better) nestled in his wavy, silvery hair. I made a few mistakes ("Turn around and face the front or you'll all get detention!!"), yet when half the class turned around, many looked confused. I hadn't noticed they were facing the wrong way. Two feisty students from the year before, twins named Juan and Juan, were there. Some of them were my students, and some of them were students of the other English teacher. One of them said to another, "Yea, some of the things she does are just so she can keep a hold over you." I chose to confront this in a constructive way rather than let it wear me down. I chose not to let it bother me. Even though I intended to go over the class guidelines, we ended up going over an orange worksheet on oxymorons, an assignment they somehow had done before the first day. Also, before that, I shared with them pictures of Dean and told them all about him and his job. That seemed to draw them to me. And the oxymoron discussion was lively; they were engage4d and my old teaching ability flowed into me, filling every corner of me, right down to the tips of my fingers. I felt totally alive. It was good. During all this, Joel sat quietly and listened and watched and observed. At one point he asked to leave temporarily and said he'd be back. I said, "sure, come back whenever." and he went out the door and I went back to what I was doing. Later, his head was peaking in the window of the door (he had to stoop because he was so tall) and a kid let him in. He lumbered/loped down the aisle. As we were engaged in discussion, Joel got up and said he had to go, but he asked me when I went to school. I said I was done with college. He seemed surprised. He turned to the class and told them they were lucky to have a fine teacher like me; that I'd do well and we'd be all right. The funny thing is, I knew or sensed that he was dead, but the kids didn't. I felt tears forming in my eyes. He had to go, but I asked him if I could ask him something. He said, "sure," so I asked the class to visit quietly in their desks while I stepped outside. Joel was very attentive. I started to weep. I said, "I know this is an unusual request, but I need to know something. We walked along the hallway. I said, "Have you seen people?" he smiled and said, "Yes, at all levels." I said, "I have this brother..." we reached the end of the hallway and I got the sense that I couldn't go any farther with him and had to get back to my kids. He was about to go up the stairs to the teacher's lounge. Somehow Joel turned into one of my college professors-turned friend, Karla. I kept talking. "He committed suicide, and I want to know if he's okay." She said, "Hmmmm. Suicide. I wonder what they'll do with him," as she looked thoughtfully at the floor. I said, "Well, I wonder if he's 'halfway,' as in 'in-between'." She smiled warmly and said, as if she had gotten a message, "What does it matter, all of the trivial things?" And I said I just needed to know he was okay. I got the feeling from her that he was, but I never really heard the words. But somehow I knew. I knew class was going to be over soon, the bell would ring, and then the alarm clock went off. I woke up with a terrible migraine, but had to write it all down. I wonder...was this the peace I prayed for? Is the mentoring I receive from others a little connection to Cedric, my older brother who died when I was 15? I heard Joel's sweet, warm voice in my dream - it sounded so real. One thing that bugs me is that I can't remember the voice of my brother.

Muggers

Dear Peregrin,

Hey, for the past week or so I have been have 2 dreams that keep happening within different situations, I thought they were just weird dreams at first, but then I saw a pattern.

The first dream was:

I was my age now and with my friend I went to visit my old neighborhood. A kid approached me and called out my name, I asked him who he was and he told me he used to play by the tennis courts while i played "over there" and he pointed to the steps. So then I crossed the street with my friend and we went up a hill, once we got up the hill the young kid who spoke to me earlier go transformed into a 30 year old and he had 4 friends with him. They started to rob me and my friends, at first they went for my necklace and I begged for them not to take it because it wouldnt have been worth anything, just sentimental value, and they took it anyway. Then they took something from my friend and they wer going to take my ring that my ex boyrfirend gave me and I told them to hold on a second. I walked 5 steps backwards and right there, around the corner was a group of reporters. I said help help as the robbers came around the corner and one of the reporters took out a gun. He started shooting and killed the reporter while me and my friend escaped. We ran and the scenery changed we went into some really white appartement building and we ran to the top in order to get to the roof but there were no doors. We started going down the stairs and the robbers were going up...We were approx. 1 floor away from each other and I started panicking, then I decided I'd just try random doors, and on the 3rd try the door opened. I ran into the apartment and there was a man sitting on the couch while his wife was in the middle of the living room talking on the phone. We told them the story and they let us stay.

The next day we decided to go out, and this 5 story building turned into 137 story building. we went up and at every story that we stopped at we thought the robbers were there so we kept pressing buttons in the elevator.

We finally got to the roof and started walking, suddenly one of the robbers said "Stop right there" and instead of stopping my friend and I started running, he shot his gun and hit my friend in her behind. Then someone near by called the cops and they got there immediatly. they arrested the robbers, out of which one of the was Vin Diesel..he was laughing and said to one of his friend something like "I shot her in the ass...hahahaha!" then I turned to him and said "Soon you will be getting it in the ass" and then I woke up half chuckling.

LAST NIGHT I had a dream about someone stealing my watch and my rings, basically robbing me again...

Another dream I had was of my off and on boyfriend. I keep having dreams of him and other girls, especially girls online. Like he talks to them and sends them pictures of his naked self. I am in these dreams too and I tell him that it bothers me, so he tries to hide it from me, and I still discover it somehow. Then a few times in different dreams I walked in on him cheating on me, and instead of doing anything I made sure that he saw my face as I walked out...

Now I never really remember my dreams, but for the past week I keep remembering these...

Help?!

All Week

Dear Peregrin,

Tuesdays Dream:

I was in a swimming pool with all my friends and this girl who I don't really like came up to me and started to drown me. I got up and started to drown her back. She ran out of the pool and so did i and her dad just appeared (i have never seen her dad before though) and he came up to me and said you dare f*** touch my daughter again and i will kill you. So i started to run to my mum's house and when i opened the door they were both sitting there in my lounge! I got really scared so I started to run but they locked the doors. Something happened (i cant remember) and I got out. I went to my mum's friend house (down the road) and she hid me. They knew what house i was in got me and it ended..

Wednesdays Dream:

I was at school and saw three people (as I'm 14 they were 14 as well) whom I have not seen for ages because they left school. One boy shouted Hey Stef! and i just ignored him. I gave the girl a hug.

Thursdays dream:

I saw a bird in the window. It had a long blue beak. It pecked at the window and smashed the window. It scratched me and it started to laugh. I turned into a bird just like it. He told me to fly with him and I did. He told me that i would have to scratch people and make them into birds. I started to cry and wanted to be a human again. He said I would be a bird forever.

Fridays Dream:

All I can remember was i was in my room and I found a draw sting bag which had keys of different shapes and sizes. Some were rusty and old and some were brand new!

Burglars

Dear Peregrin,

This dream which i call my Burglar dream is a reocurring dream that i have at least once a year.

In the dream it's like I'm having an out of body experience. I'm floating above everyone and I can see what's going on. My body is in bed asleep. My parents and my little 3 year old half sister are asleep. Then suddenly 3 or 4 (the number differs) men dressed in all black break into the house and come up the steps. My bedroom is at the very top of the steps and in my dream I get so scared because I know these people know that we're all in the house and we're asleep and they want to kill us so they can rob us. But they can't decide on who to kill first. That's usually when I wake up. It scares me half to death! Please help me!

Angela

Paralyzed

Dear Peregrin,

When I was a child, I was able have "lucid dreams" quite freely. Quite a few years ago, I had a dream where I was trapped within the jaws of an alligator. During this dream, I literally felt the pain as the alligator's jaws were crushing me. This theme of "feeling" physical pain during dreaming recurred throughout the years (though the alligator was more or less a one time occurrence). Whenever this occurs (quite frequently), I enter a state of sleep paralysis in which I am aware (lucid) to the fact that I am in a dream and I know that the only way to stop the "pain" is to wake up. The paralysis keeps me from being able to "jerk" my body out of sleep. Inevitably, I awaken a few times "within the dream" before I can truly wake myself up. After years of trying to cope and understand these recurring nightmares, I made a remarkable discovery. I realized that everytime this "phenomenon" occurs, it is preceded by the same event (in the dream) each time which seemingly triggers this state. The event is that I become fully aware that I am in a dream and have control (full lucidity) of my surroundings. However, this control ends abruptly as the pain and "paralysis" immediately kick in. I wish to regain the control that I once had in my wonderful "lucid dreams" but this block prevents me. Interestingly, one might think that having realized this cause for this state I could simply keep it from happening, but it has not helped me. I tell myself "this is a dream, the pain is not real, I have control" but it does not help. I cannot regain control and (as I have said) even awakening is even difficult. Please help! Thanx.

The Race

Dear Peregrin,

I have a friend named Amy whom I've known since kindergarten. I generally think of her as a better person morally than I. Keep in mind she is not athletic. In the dream, I'm watching a race being run. Amy is participating. It looks to me like it's going to be a really long race. The gun goes off. The runners start. In a short time Amy pulls into second position; which is good, because the race is over almost as soon as it began. A coach begins giving Amy advice, obviously favoring her over his other runners. The race is about to begin again. Only this time, I'm in it, too. Once again I feel it's going to be a long race. The gun goes off. Amy begins weaving through the other runners. I follow in the path she's creating. I'm not trying my hardest because I think it's a long distance race. Amy takes first place. I don't know what place I came in; it wasn't relevant. The cones are cleared off the road while Amy is again being instructed by the coach. I'm watching from a distance. I hear a car on the road behind me and turn to see it. When I turn back around, everyone's gone. I'm sad for a minute, then begin walking home. Does this mean I feel I should follow Amy's example in life even though it never appealed, or even occurred to me before?

Gnitca

Coyote

Dear Peregrin,

I am in the basement of my house back home, and I find we have somehow captured a coyote in our basement. However, now that I think about it, the coyote really looks more like a fox, or a small dog. But, in my dream it's certainly a coyote to me. Normally, we have looked on the coyotes around my house with frustration, because they used to kill our cats. Anyway, I notice that the coyote is hurt and I want to help it, however, it won't let. Whenever, I reach for it, it bites and scratches my hands and arms, and it really hurts. The dream continues with me feeling frustrated that I can't help the animal. It really hurts me that the coyote is suffering.

Sex with Brother-In-Law

Hello,

I am a straight married guy. Every once in awhile I have a dream of my brother-in-law who is straight and married also having sex together. Each of us touching, sucking, etc each other. What does this mean? This dream scares the hell out of me.

Henry

Drinking Water

Dear Peregrin,

I kept drinking water. I went to all these places throughout the dream and had this big glass of water. I kept drinking and filling it. I couldn't get enough water. And during the dream, I remember saying why am I drinking all this water...do I need to wake up and get a glass? And then I said to myself no, I'm not really thirsty go back to dreaming.

Water

Black Mollies

Dear Peregrin,

I dreamed that I was in my livingroom looking at my fish tank, which in reality I do have a 30 gal fish tank with black mollies. I was curious to find that all of my mollies were replaced with small tadpoles (or even black baby mollies.) Can you decipher this dream?

Utopian

Bear Transformed

Dear Peregrin,

My friends and I caught a bear, and put it in a big box. then, we put it on a boat and dropped it in the ocean. One year later, we returned to the spot, scuba dived to the bottom and re-opened the box. We found that the bear had transformed into a manta-ray, and began to attack us. I was almost to the boat, when I looked down, to see the manta-ray swim up, and bite off my face.

Cuddling with an Old Friend

Dear Peregrin,

My friend, whom I'll call Dave, has recently left my university for a larger one. I never had a chance to say goodbye, so he left a goodbye message on my answering machine. I had not heard from him until the other day, when I received an e-mail from him. It was generally good news, but the letter had an auora of missing us at school. That night I dreamt that Dave and I were cuddling up together (it wasn't very sexual at all). Oddly, I was wearing a whole pair of nylons! Even worse, I had a mechanical pencil tucked inside them. I remember not wanting him to notice the pencil, out of embarrassment I guess. It was a rather warm and comfortable dream, except for the pencil. No conversation took place.

Charlotte

Last Day of School

Dear Peregrin,

It seems like I have a different variation of this re-occurring dream at least once a week or a couple of times a month for as long as I can remember off and on....If that makes any sense. It is always the last day of school and I need to find a certain teacher to say goodbye to... sometimes I have to walk up a lot of stairs or find my way around this maze of a school building. Other times, I am stuck cleaning out my locker first, and there is always so much STUFF! They are always really vivid dreams; sometimes Lucid, and I make myself Find this teacher....because I know it will be the last time I see her and I want to say goodbye.

BeveBear

First Girlfriend

Dear Peregrin,

I was sleeping and my beeper beeped. I didn't recognize the number but I called it right away and a girl answered. I said "Did someone page Chris?" and she said "what?... Chris Johnson is that you?" and I was like "yes, who paged me?... who's this?" and she was like "Its me Maria." Which was my first love who dumped me for some other guy. So I said "Maria B--, damn" and I was about to hang up the phone when she "wait! lets talk" So we talked about each our lives and neither of us was mad at each other. Then she asked me to come over to her house, and I got dressed and went there, and her parents were all happy to see me, and they asked if I wanted to spend the night (not sexually), so I said yes and then my friends came over and couldn't believe that I was talking to her. And then the dream ended.

Dumped

Dream or Visit?

Dear Peregrin,

I am not sure if the dream I had was "just a dream" or some kind of a message. I feel more like it was a message. This is what happened:

In November I had a vivid dream where I was looking out the front window of my home and saw 2 men pull into my driveway and walk towards the front door. I was nervous because it was late at night and I couldn't imagine who they were or why they would be coming to the door so late. They saw me in the window, and realized that I was nervous, so they started to walk away from the door - across the lawn - heading for the street - but on the opposite side of where they had parked their car (they obviously were not going to leave yet). They stood by the curb and looked at me. I opened the door slowly. They stood on the lawn and waved to me in a friendly manner. They were 2 Indian men (Native American). They were wearing jeans, but they had feather headpieces. They pointed to the walkway by the door, where I saw that they had left me a large box. They kept waving to me and pointing to the box and nodding their heads to let me know it was okay. I wasn't nervous any more. One of the men was speaking to me, but I couldn't hear him and that was so frustrating! I could see his lips moving, but I could not hear him. I'm sure this one was a message, and I missed it! Ater that they got back in the car and pulled away. I looked at the box but did not open it. I woke up immediately after the dream, feeling very confused and disappointed that I culdn't hear the message. I keep asking - every night- for them to come back and tell me what the message was and what is in the box, but I have had no luck so far. Can you help me figure this out?

Also - this is not the first time an Indian has come to me. I have had "visits" a couple of other times over the years, but not in dreams - they came while I was in bed but still awake - mostly just a nod of the head to let me know they were there at times when I was troubled.

I'm not sure if this is relavent to the dream, but at the time I was really asking for guidance in a situation in my life. A close friend of many years stopped talking to me with no explanation and I could not, and still can't understand why. There was no argument or anything, just an unexplained vanishing act. This has hurt me deeply and still has me so concerned. Could they be tied together?

Any insight you may have on this dream would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you for your time!

Carol

Man on the Moon

Dear Peregrin,

My friend, who is a pilot in real life, had a dream about having a secret mission. People at his work kept asking him where he had to go, and he couldn't tell them, or else he'd lose his job altogether. Next part of his dream he was actually on the moon! He was very happy, and he said to himself, "I am an astronaut!" (It was his childhood dream, in real life, to become an astronaut.)

Does this dream mean anything? I looked at two different books, and got two different meanings.

Liz

I Can Feel It!

Dear Peregrin,

I don't ever remeber my dreams at all. NEVER!! All of a sudden, I can remeber this one dream and I am having it over and over now, 2 or 3 times a night where I wake up after it. Its the most life like dream I have ever had. Let me describe it for you:

I am with a girl that I am interested in, and we are in her apartment and we are alone. I am looking at her and she is looking at me. Her hair is in her face and I pull it behind her ear. I lean in and give her a kiss. I pull back to look at her and she smiles and so do I. I go in again and giver her anouther kiss. The kind of kiss that is very sweet and simple, no tounge just pure lip to lip with a pause of contact. I stop bust stay near her. I open my eyes in the dream and I open my eyes in real life with a smile on my face. This has been happening often now and its driving me a little wild. Its just weird how it feels so real. I swear I can feel her skin, can smell the perfume, can taste her lips when I kiss her. What kind of dream is this? How can I FEEL IT? Why do I always wake up at that same time?

Thanks,

Dan

Losing Teeth

Dear Peregrin,

I keep having this reoccuring dream about my teeth falling out and would like to know what this may mean? In my first dream only one tooth fell out and it was one of my back molars and it was loose and just fell out perfectly no cracks or chips just a perfect tooth. Then last night it was in a totally separate dream unrelated to the last dream that 2 more of my molars fell out but this time they cracked when they fell out instead of just perfectly falling out. They did not look rotted and I saw no roots. I am interested as to what this may mean? Tracy

Thank you,

Tracy

Cat Attack

Dear Peregrin,

I have this reccuring dream and I cannot make sense of it....

I am standing the center of a room and this cat attacks my left hand. Its teeth dig into my left hand pointer finger. I look down and I can see its teeth going right through my finger. I use my right hand and try to pull the cat off my hand

Becca

Rotten Teeth

Dear Peregrin,

I dreamt that my teeth were rotten, they were stained brown and when I tried to brush them they started to crumble. My current day life is full of adversity where I feel that I am the target of vitriolic and vindictive behaviour from certain colleagues, I feel as if I am in the middle of an ongoing battle that will last for quite a while.

Sharon

Alien Teacher

Hello Peregrin,

Can you give me some idea about the meaning of this dream I had this morning right before I woke up. Thank you for your time

I had a dream like I've never had before. I was living in a home that had a large glass window as wide as the wall. As I was standing in the livingroom, I saw a hugh flying saucer so very clearly in every detail and it seemed so real. It was heading right into my livingroom.

I saw an alien in one of the other rooms while I was in another part of the house. One of the aliens was doing something to me waiving his hands up and down to try to paralize me, but his magic didn't work on me. I was awake and alert during the whole thing. He was very nice and I could feel his affection towards me. The aliens had like a human flesh color and were not scary looking. They did not seem to have those big eyes normally displayed on them in pictures.

There seems to have been a woman that came with him, but she looked more human. A tall, thin woman with short black waivy hair who was like an instructor.

There was a group of us listening to their lectures. I was sitting like on a bunk bed or on a seat that was up high. I looked down and saw that one of the aliens dropped something. As we were all leaving, I went over to pick it up. It was a letter to me. I knew this because I took peecks inside to see what it was. It was a real nice letter to me about all my good qualities and that I was a good person, etc. It was a love letter.

There was a wedding. I was part of the wedding ceromony. Like I was a bridesmaid. I had a partner. I had to follow him because I didn't know what I was suppose to do or where I was suppose to stand. The wedding seemed to already be in progress.

Thank you for whatever light you can shed on this very foreign dream.

Mary

Blue City

Hello,

I was hoping you could shed some light on this dream my friend had recently. She sent it to me by email, just to read, and I told her I could send it to somone here on allexperts to interpret.

"I am in my apartment, sleeping on the floor. When I wake up and see that Pablo has walked in and is sitting by my head looking down at me and playing with my hair."

I think I should let you know a couple of things from here about her life just so you know the context. First off, her apartment has no door to it. It's just a blanket that covers the door. She lives in a sort of hostel (for now) where not too many people have doors to begin with, and theres a lot of security so no one really cares. Anyways, when people come over to her house, they just walk on in. This person, Pablo, is someone she recently met at a party. He's a poet, and the night of the party they spent a long time talking to each other. He told her that he's borrowing someone's van to drive to California, and that she is welcome to come. This is really a coincedence since, she has been longing to move to California for a while.

"When he sees that I've woken up, he hands me a poem that he wrote for me. I do not remember all of it, but it had something to do with his eyes turning green and red everytime he looked at me, and how he would like to see me clearly for once. After I read it, he lies down next to me, and starting with his eyes, his whole body starts to get tinted blue. I look up and outside of the window and I see that the sun is rising and that the color of the sun itself is blue, and that the light coming into my room from the sun is slowly turning everything blue, but I am staying the same. Then I decide to get up, and instead of getting up on my feet, I start to float over Pablo's body, so that my eyes are totally lined up with his eyes. He opens them, and looks at me and says that he thinks now is a good time to go. So we walk downstairs holding hands and the sun is not fully risen yet but the streets are all blue now. I am the only non-blue things around. No one is on the streets and it feels like a ghost town, like the whole place is dead. We start to drive away. As I look back at the city, when we reach the last highway exit, the sun is at the top of the sky and the entire city is changing colors, like a moving tie-dye picture. I ask him if he knows what's going on, and realize that all of a sudden he is no longer blue. He's normal. He tells me that now he can see me clearly, now that we have left the city. That's when I wake up"

I'm hoping you could interpret this. I'm a little worried about her going. This guy is nice and all, but I'm going to miss her, and feel like maybe she's rushing things.

Also do you think that it's a good idea for her to go, based on this dream?

Your help is much appreciated. Thanks and take care,

Stephanie

Debutante

Dear Peregrin,

I'd like some help interpreting a dream I had over the weekend. To make a long dream short - I found myself back at the age 20 or 21 and had to making my formal debut into society. The dream seemed to drag on as a young man (my escort) and I went from room to room in this large Country Club where there were pictures on the wall of different people in History. In each of the rooms, there were people sitting, having tea and light conversation, we did not speak unless we were spoken to. We finally reached the outside where my mother and a man that is supposed to be her husband (mom's single), are waiting. They present me with a Cadillac Escalade EXT and $200,000 dollars. The dream seemed more like a Wedding Party than a Debutante Ball; there wasn't much dancing or events that you would expect at a Debutante's Ball. Can make heads or tales of it. Would appreciate any insight given.

Thanks,

Jin

Green Resort

hello,

i saw myself walking through a green road, where there were green plants both sides, covering the wall of a tennis court. I turned left and reached near the sport complex building, it was one storeyed place. i saw primary school students who were tried to be queued by a teacher and there were high school students who were already queued, wearing some green, white clothes, , there were going to practise for a festival. i was dressed like those high school students, but i was also afraid that they would understand i am foreign. The queue went into the building , i didnt kow the moves but a girl who had green eyes, blond wavy hair helped me, and the practise was over. everyone went to the showers, and when i reached my shower, with other 3 people , we heard a voice coming from my side. A suffering man voice was saying "in the army". I was afraid the other people would ask me something because i didn't understand their language, i was afraid they would understand i am foreign. then i pulled out a key for the shower, i unlocked the shower, got into it and again locked it back. I changed clothes there, there was a mirror inside the cabinet, i stared at the mirror, i saw my face and my brown eyes. , then i got out of the shower, a woman was there , she asked in her language "are you leaving now?" i said"yes" , she asked:"are you satisfied with the service?" ,i said "yes", she said "thank you".we talked in her language, it was a slavic language. i took my bag, went to toilet first , than from the same green way, to the road where i got a taxi and said "airport". the place was a very green place.

Jada

Adoption

Dear Peregrin,

It was a very odd dream in which my sister and I went through or around many obstacles in order to give her daughter up for adoption. Eventually I realized that I would much rather keep Anna than give her up. I guess sometimes I can be slow about seeing alternatives.

JRB

Boat

Dear Peregrin,

I was running with a bunch of people. Some religious leader, young blonde girl, couldn't know her name. We were trying to avoid "melt down" or destruction of some kind. Saw people get caught with metal cuffs around their necks when fried. There were boats, supposed to be a luxury. We managed to get food from "luxury" place and got on a ship that was restricted. The ship was very bare - nothing on the walls - stark (I think dark green color.) On one of the ships, a sign with lettering on it, and the lettering continued on the wall. The "clean" ship survived. And we found the other survivors, but then realized we had red bumps all around our neck/chest & back. We panicked for a minute thinking we were contagious - but the others weren't concerned. Where the bumps they had also had, there were now only some scars - like a skin tatoo - And we all looked the same. Relief!

The only thing different in my life right now is that I recently quit my job.

Media Gal

Dad

Dear Peregrin,

I have a recurring dream that as a young child I was running through a meadow that was filled with tiny little violets and as I was running through the field I was picking these flowers for my father. In the middle of this field was a huge garage that my father always did his mechanical work in. When I walked into the garage my father was on the other side of the garage and he had a huge engine hoisted up on a rope to the ceiling. This rope was attached to the wall next to where he was standing. As I was running across the garage to give him the flowers that I had picked for him, he reached up and unattached the rope and dropped the engine on me in the middle of the room.

Bomb Shelter

originally published March 21, 2003

Dear Peregrin,

I was in town and this siren went off. Everyone started to panic and started to run into this music shop. I didn't know what was going on... I ran with the people and they were going down stairs of this shop. They went into this big square mettalic room which looked like a shelter. I was scared because i didn't know what was going on. The siren slowed down and the mettalic dorrs shut. It was a nuclear shelter. A nuclear bomb went off then the shelter broke apart as it was not strong enough then it ended.

Please find out what this means!

Stefan

Speedboat Survivor

Dear Peregrin,

I am crowded into a large racing powerboat with a group of people, including my mother. As we speed along the surface, suddenly, a gigantic wave engulfs our craft and causes it to plunge underwater. Somehow, I manage to hold onto it, thinking that it will emerge from the depths because it feels so buoyant. As it rises to the surface, others try to hang on. Some can, but others cannot. I am worried about my mother and worried about running out of breath before we reach the surface. Finally, the boat pops out of the water, but throws us all overboard into the sea. There are dead bodies and debris around me and I look for my mother but can't find her. Then, I discover I am among other strong swimmers and we shed our clothing and swim to shore, fearing another large wave will crash over us and kill us.

Once on land, I continue searching for my mother, but discover she has drowned and I am filled with grief and start to cry. Those of us who have survived and are ashore find ourselves standing naked in a very quiet, wealthy seaside neighborhood. We wander around the empty streets for a bit before we enter a house, thinking it is unoccupied. I'm still feeling sad about my mother, when I hear that one of the swimmers has murdered the occupants of the house. It wasn't empty after all!

Through a window, I see a school bus stop outside and let off a teenaged girl and I start sobbing because she's about to find out her entire family has been wiped out by someone in our group. When the police vehicles swarm onto the scene, some of us retreat to the expansive backyard, planted with a lush lawn and tropical plants, including blooming birds of paradise and mature aloes. A man calls out to me to come to the end of the yard, which is a cliff overlooking the ocean. He dives in and I follow him, hoping to keep my hands in front of me to break the shock of hitting the water below. We survive the dive and together, we swim a short distance to a lush island that looks like Tahiti. A woman is there who doesn't care that we're still naked. Then I wake up.

Movies

Dear Peregrin,

I've had a number of dreams about the movies--usually I'm working behind the scenes, on the set or even behind the camera, but I wondered if you had an interp for what the movies might symbolize.

Teresa

Devil's Food

Dear Peregrin,

A few nights ago I had an extremely vivid dream about Satan. I was asleep in my bed when I suddenly felt wide awake. I opened my eyes to see a tall figure beside my bed. At this moment, I don't know how, but I knew it was the devil. He had the appearence of a human male and was holding this tray-thing (like what employees at American sporting events usually have hanging around their necks when selling hotdogs or popcorn), and it was full of chocolate bars (I dont have an eating disorder or wieght problem). He then held out his hand towards me. I blinked and he was gone and I was still wide awake.

A Fire Inside

Cheating in School

Dear Peregrin,

I have a recurring dream that my girlfriend is in school, kissing a guy that isn't me. Every time I dream it, it's always in school, but it's also always a different guy. And the guy is always a friend of ours.

Wiked

Charlie

Dear Peregrin,

I had a vivid dream in which I was close to someone named Charlie. It is a first time ever that a name had come so clearly and if not Charlie then a name definitely starting with a c and sounding like Charlie. I found the dream a bit weird that I live in Asia, originally from US, so the Asian names I hear everyday are different. In the dream I was very very close to this person then somehow we got separated. Who do you think this person is? Will I meet this person in this lifetime? And how can I remember more? why are these dreams coming so frequently now, I have not done anything different than my normal routine.

Hot Dogs

Hi Peregrin,

I have had dreams in the last two days involving black dogs. In my last dream, there were three black dogs, small, medium and large in size one next to the other...they looked charred and still. In conjunction with this dream I had another dream where there was metal on the road and all the cars that rode over the metal got flat tires and were offset to the side of the road.

Currently in my life, I just started a new job and am afraid of dogs, and am working to gain more confidence.

Thanks

My First Boyfriend

Dear Peregrin,

Can you please help me to interpret my dream?

it starts off when I'm at this party (it's at someone's house0 and I go into the bathroom and someone knocks on the door, so I open the door without even asking who it is, and its this guy I really want to go out with. He comes in saying he needs to talk with me, he turns his back to me and says something like " I wanted to talk to you because..well everyday in history class (im in his class with him)..I was never brave enough to ask you out and..(then he takes a drink of water and smiles, he's acting really nervous this whole time)" but I knew what he was saying (that he was going to ask me out) and immediatly I jump up and kiss him for a few seconds then I say " I was waiting for you to ask me," then he smiles and he kisses me but this time he uses his tongue and I don't think he really knew what he was doing because he was licking my lips and stuff (really gross right!) but the weird thing was I didn't even mind. Then we went out into the living room and were watching tv and we were both sitting it the same chair next to each other and I remember think that I got my first real boyfriend tonight and I was so happy.

What does this mean?

Thanks,

Jenny

The Bride's Face

Dear Peregrin,

So I always had this dream in which I never knew who the bride was I was marrying, like she didn't have a face. So recently I met this wonderful girl and I started having the dream again. The crazy thing is now when I have the dream I can totally picture her face......what does it mean?

Playtown

Dear Peregrin,

I was walking around a town were all the people in the town were very small. I also could buy anything I wanted for 4 cents. It was strange that all I was buying is underwear.

Candy

Goth in a Yellow Dress

Dear Peregrin,

I was in a hotel room when I turned around and I was in car driving with my dad. My dad said you have to babysit. When I got to a cliff i jumped and landed in a shack with 3 kids, all girls. One was layng next to me and I kept thinking I don't want to be here. I walked out of the room and found my mom and sister and I told my mom I didn't want to watch these kids, I didn't feel safe and she said oh well you have to do it anyway. Then there were 20 kids and I was trying to remember their names when I saw a window and climbed out. On the roof was a helicopter. I go in and strapped myself in. We started to fly and the chair leaned back and started to turn. We flew very low. Then we reached a church. called Team Naz. When I got out of the copter I saw my friend Kyle who is a goth. He had his spiked hair and spikes on his arms and his boots on but he had a yellow dress with lace on. I jumped on his back and then he kissed my hand and left purple lip marks and I said cool do it here and i pointed to my cheek so he kissed it then he kissed my lips and we started to make out when a voice called out and said Jadelyn and Kyle you have a detention for kissing in front of a door and I tried to get out of the detention so I said I had to babysit and the guy got mad and said fine if you don't want to listen to God... and I said I would glady take it but I need to call my mom is will be worried. and he ripped up the piece of paper and then I woke up.

Jadelyn

On The Mountain

Dear Peregrin,

I am in a place on a mountain facilitating my women's circle- A young Native American woman and I get close- there is an attraction between us. I think she is very beautiful and interesting. We talk. I know she is part Native American like I am. I have a very good feeling about this. We discuss skin color and features- and the way of knowing - the way that we each recognize each other. We look a lot alike. At a certain point I say "they " are being problematical these days. I see some people in the distance coming closer. We must be careful not to mention certain things. I have a feeling of confidence, and am aware of transmitting this to the woman, wanting her to know that somehow I've been able to elude "them" thus far. She asks what things? I say. For example, I never use the word witch. It isn't necessary anyway to use that word. I have a sense of the other women gathering in the meeting room behind us. We will go in and join the group.

Flying and Color

Dear Peregrin,

I'm literally flying by moving my arms. I soar and coast between buildings, I have to flap harder to get over electrical power lines, and the maneuvers get quite intricate and "hairy". It is such a rush. I enjoy it, I am not afraid, it doesn't scare me. I have perfect landings. I fly quite high and notice air traffic all around (planes). I also dream in color. What do these dreams mean?

Color Dreamer

Cheating

Dear Peregrin,

For two days in a row I dreamt that my boyfriend cheated on me and in both dreams we ended braking up. In real life there was no indication of anything going wrong, we had the perfect relationship. After two days (after my dreams) he calls me and breaks up with me for no reason at all. The reason is a long story but isn't that strange that two days before we broke up, I actually dreamt twice that we did. I don't understand. Could it have been a warning? From who?

Dreamer Knows Best

Hi

I had this dream last night and it's lingering in my head. I know that the best interpreation will come from me because I know my life, but maybe you can help me and see if I'm reading my dream correctly.

Here's the dream:

I had made a date with "J," so I was running around looking for a blue condom because I knew that we were going to have sex. I found it and went for my date. When I got to his room and we began undressing. The dream then skips ahead to us dressing. I knew that we had had sex even though I hadn't seen it. I felt no different than I had at the beginning of the dream and the following scenes mainly dwelled on that thought.

What I think:

In real life, I had a crush on "J" last fall. We hung out a lot and it was all good. I then left school because I was going on my study abroad. I didn't talk to him after that and my crush just faded away. That was over a year ago. Then the other day, we had hung out a little and then I had the dream. I think I have something lingering from my crush that I had just put way back in my mind and my dream is now telling me that I need to resolve it and move on with my life.

What do you think?

Thanks

Dear Peregrin,

How can I communicate with someone through my dreams? I have dreamt about this person many times. I want to send messages to him and I wonder if he ever tries to send messages to me.

Joan

The Office Key

Dear Peregrin,

I have been having dreams about the same person since June 2002. I am female and married to a Mexicano. We have problems and are seeing someone. He is very nice and trying to do right, but I still feel very unhappy. I am tired. 10 years have been added on to my life. We have two kids and I stay home all day with them. When not at work he is with his mom. I am in my early 20's. I have been told that I have the ability to have premonitions. For example; i may tell my husband please do not drive at night this week. And one day he is driving and almost hits a car or a deer. this has actually happened. At age 15 1/2 I met the most beautiful Mexicano. We talked on and off for two years. He seemed to only want one thing. He was a college boy, and I was in high school. Nothing ever blossomed. Sometimes we would coincidentally see each other around town. Once he made a comment that if it was meant to be our paths would meet again. I have never dreamed of people in my dreams. I don't dream of an aunt, brother, partner, etc. Since June I have been having dreams that include this same person I met at 15. The first dream felt like a premonition when I awoke. I understand that dreams are a way to work out conflict etc. and I have plenty. But, I always have gone with my gut. Also, forgot to mention that he worked with my relative once upon a time. 6 years after leaving home I had the following dream. Key symbol: are keys. I know that keys mean something in dreams. I am passed that. I want to know if my dreams can be premonitions, are they trying to tell me something. Could we be trying to tell each other something. the dream.Meaning can people telepathically send messages to each other dreams.

A woman is sitting behind a long office desk and there are keys on the desk. A relative of mine is laughing at something. Her body language says she is somehat showing off. She is standing in the doorway of the office throwing her hair back. Then she steps in. I am in the dream, but jsut a spirit in the room. then the man I met at 15 enters the room and grabs the key. His face is can not be seen.

The feeling after dream is that he will soon be working with the realtive. He grabbed the key to open an office in the building. Everytime the realtive calls me I want to ask if there is something she needs to tell me.

I have been having premonitions for a long time. Didn't know how to quite define the gut feelings until recently.

Thank you

Niki

Costume Party

Dear Peregrin,

A few nights ago I had a Dream about me, It started as me trying to get out of this hotel and there was this guy who didnt want me to leave and was trying to keep me there so I had to sneek out and after I did that I came back in in costume with a bunch of my friends for a contest and we walked into stalls to switch costumes with each other and the contest had started and a bunch of kids came walking by, then they anounced the winner, who happened to be two twins they caleed Febuary, they were standing on an old rickity stage, they looked dead, and they had a little guy with them, he looked like and elf sorta, and he was naked, and i tured to look at my friend and i looked back and he had pooped out magots and was lying on his side, his back toward me, his back was open hels together with staples and the magots were crawling back into him and he was screaming out in pain, and then I woke up. Another thing is that i always wake up from dreams like these at 3 in the morning, I dont know if that is anything or not, but still. I want to know what this means, if anything.

Erin

No Sanctuary

Dear Peregrin,

I dreamt:

I was walking along a road in a built up area. I was going somewhere with some friends, one from work.

I had this feeling something terrible was about to happen. I told my friend and she said she had the same feeling.

We increased our walking speed to get to where we were going, which turned out to be a church.

I am not religous.

Another person that was there opened the door and we got in quickly.

Just as she closed the door a large lion dived at the door, it's front leg came through the side of the door and it's paw caught my hand, I did not bleed but I felt the sharpness of its claw.

Also its roar was extremely loud, it's presence was felt.

The door was stopping the lion getting in but I felt it might not hold. I was through another door and I felt this might not hold if the lion got throught he first door.

I knew this was a dream but was so terrified I woke myself up.

What does it all mean.

I rarely get dreams that are as powerful as this which induce strong feelings like this.

Thank you

Andy

Wheat Field Rave

Dear Peregrin,

The other night i had a dream that my dad and sister dropped me off at this sort of rave thing at a weat field... every one there was smoking something...(a regular cig... i'm not sure?) but they were smoking...

Any way... so then theres this gust of wind or something happened and every one was buried in the weat... i got up and started walking towards some people and this huge skull is eating through the weat and it says something to me but i can't figure it out... then i ask some random person if i can use their cell phone... and i call my house & my sister picks up (or at least it sounded like my sister it could of been my mom cause they sound alike)

so then i see my sister come out from being buried in the weat... and i don't remember much after that...

Can you please help me determine what my subconcious was pointing out...

Thanks...

Ella

Ex-Husband

Dear Peregrin,

Hello! After ending 12 years of marriage, I have been dreaming a lot (mostly sexually) about my ex-husband. When I was with him, I probably only had a few dreams of him. He was not a good husband, partying and cheating on me, then telling me our marriage was a lie. I still have some feelings for him. he keeps showing up in my dreams. He was my first and only sexual partner during our marriage so it has been hard to let go.

What do my dreams mean? Do they mean I want him back or is he trying to come back to me?

Thank you for your time.

Teresa

Stung

Dear Peregrin,

My boyfriend and I are recently in a long distant relationship. My boyfriend use to call me everyday but recently he has stopped calling me at all. I'm really am confused on what is going on... Everytime I call his house his parents or brother tells me he's not home...he's out. This has started about a week ago. I have been so depressed and confused that I have started to have nightmares where I'm trying to find my boyfriend and no matter where I go I cant seem to find him at the end I still cant find him. I had this kind of dream when my boyfriend use to call me so I just ignored it. Last night I had a dream where I was bitten by a bee on my chest the side where my heart is. Maybe that represents that my heart is hurting so much like a sting. I dont know...But I would really appreciate if you can help me figure out what my dreams are telling me. I can't find my boyfriend and bee bite.

Thank you so much

Kathy

Exiled

Hi,

Can you help me interpret this dream? Thanks so much!

It starts off when I am in this desert-like, empty land (almost like one you'd be exhiled to) and I meet up with this guy I really like behind a big boulder. We walk around a bit then find this car. We drive around for hours just trying to find civilization, but we never find any. So Nick (the guy) reclines the back seat and says we can sleep here. I go back there willingly and lay down next to him and everything feels good. Then there's a knock on the door, we look and it's one of Nick's friends, a guy who I used to like and I am not sure if i still do [he always makes me laugh] then he comes in and I lay down in between them. What does this mean?

thanks again

Ashley

Lingering Thoughts

Dear Peregrin,

Before I say my dream the guy in my dream (Morry) was the only boyfriend I've had real feelings for. We went out two years ago for about a year and ever since we broke up things have gone downhill for us both. It was a normal school day. I was walking through the halls and going out for lunch with my friends. You know, just a normal school day. But it seemed everywhere I went I saw Morry. We would just stare at each other with empty eyes as we past each other and every time I saw him I sorta froze inside. The next thing I knew I was line dancing in the gym and was having so much fun. Until I turned my head towards the door and saw Morry walking straight towards me. I thought for sure he was going to go beside his friend who was behind me but no, he stood beside me and I noticed he was closer to me than everyone else was to each other. And again he looked over at me but this time he didn't walk away. I felt scared and confused. HELP ME!

Crystal

Rainbow Fish

Dear Peregrin,

I'm laying on a slender table in a laboratory. There are lots of workers in green suits with green auras. The air is so cold I can see it, but I feel warm. A man in a white suit with a violet aura comes in and explains to me the procedure that will be done. He shows me a small slender fish...about 5 inches long...that has 7 bands of color that go from violet to red...through the spectrum...from head to tail. It is explained that the rainbow fish is going to be implanted in my arm - three bands of color above the implant line and four bands of color below the implant line. It is unspoken, but understood that the bands will correspond with my chakras. I am content that this procedure will be beneficial and go to sleep.

Zen Dreamer

The Comet

Dear Peregrin,

It was an end of the world type dream. A comet was obliterating the earth. It was very vivid. I could see geographical features of the comet as it was approaching. I was in my aunt's house with my mother, my grandmother, and my boyfriend's daughter. As the comet hit, I could feel myself dying. It was like waves of black nothingness washing over me. I could hear people next to me screaming, but the blackness kept me from moving towards them. I woke up terrified. I usually wake up just before I die in those kind of dreams.

Dookie

Scary Hallway

Dear Peregrin,

I've had this dream every Halloween. Each year, there's more to it. I'm running down a school hallway. I don't know what I'm running from but I'm scared to death. As I said, each year I get farther!!(down the hall) I'm afraid of what's at the end of the hall and of what's chasing me.

Elmo

Just a Friend

Dear Peregrin,

I keep having this dream about this guy (he is white and I am black). I like him as a friend but he keeps occurring in my dreams. Nothing romantic or anything - just showing up. May be at family functions or parties. He is always there. What does that mean?

Beauty

The Stage

Dear Peregrin,

I walked down the aisle, reciting my lines. I got to where Aggie was standing and gave her my lines. Pure agony swept over her face, as she looked at me and blinked. Instead of giving me my cue, she went on to say "So what did you do today? I got my nails done for the play, you like them?" She showed me her nails. This set me off, and instead of reciting the play we just went on. The director then started yelling at us in front of the whole audience, and made us do it all over. We started the play fine, again, but this time the whole cast, lost their places and the play was a flop. But instead of the audience, hating it, they loved it. The play was a smash. (One problem the play was 3 months ago)

Enchanted Melody

Dear Peregrin,

I wake from a dream that I cannot remember, but I am left with a warm feeling throughout my body. I walk slowly down a long winding staircase. Then, I am no longer present. I can see the staircase still, but I am looking down on it from above and I am aware that I am not a part of this reality. I can hear the most beautiful melody in the world. A woman is singing in an extremely expressive language, which I do not understand. It causes me to cry softly. I feel the most amazing rush of emotion. Although I can remember hearing the song with vivid clarity, its tune escapes me. This memory is haunting me. I would give anything to hear it in waking life or even to have the dream once more. I have a dreadful feeling, though, that I will never again hear this piece of music that I believe means everything to my achieving a sort of peace that I had never before belied possible. Help!

I Can't Play Rugby Like This!

Dear Peregrin,

I enter my dream staring at the deep, dry cuts in each of my hands. No blood is present, but I can see under the skin to the tendons, red muscle, and white bone of the openings in my hands. I am very calm in the dream, and strangely enough I am more upset at the thought that the cuts will keep me from my rugby game than the injuries to my person.

The Funeral

Dear Peregrin,

In my dream, one of my closest friend's husband Jayme died. I was sitting next to her and some of my other friends as the minister said a prayer for him. The casket was open and all of a sudden, Jayme rose from the coffin and began screaming and crying, "Please don't put my body in the ground, please!" He was twitching and my friends were crying. I was hysterical and began screaming. I woke up feeling very sad and scared.

The Dirty Church

Dear Peregrin,

Another Sanitarian and myself were inspecting a church for cleanliness. In the large auditorium, we began to mop the tile floors which were filthy. We noticed a mist beginning to rise. The pastor of the church watched us. He seemed very unconcerned and was casually, almost sloppily dressed.. We were aware a service was about to begin. People began to knock at the locked doors. We went outside and informed the parishoners the church was closed. They seemed to be in an ugly mood and began to throw rocks at the church. One shadowy figure began to threaten. I faced off with him and we began to struggle. Here the dream ended.

Vacation and Indians

Hi,

I had a very strange dream last night.

I was going with my best friend to Brazil (I live in Argentina) to spend our vacations there. To get there we had to go trough a big field, but there were indians all around it. I saw many, many arrows coming our way, they were trying to attack us. Finally one arrow hit on my neck, and then I woke up.

What do you think this dream means?

Thank you for your answer!

Satan and Choices

Dear Peregrin,

Me and my family were in this hot humid cave and it was like we had just appeared there. No light, just dark, hot, humid! We stumbled around for hours trying to find the way out. Our clothes were drenched in sweat. We kept hearing this fire crackling in the cave but no light. We finally made it to a room in the cave. It was huge, with just enough light to see about 10 feet in front. Then we heard a boom and Satan appeared behind us. He told us that we could choose one person to stay there and the rest of us could go to heaven. He put a huge hourglass in front of us and sat there. Everything we said, he would say the bad that would come of it. After sitting there for hours trying to decide I woke up.

Erin

Cat Killer

Dear Peregrin,

My sister and her fiance, James, and I were over at my mother's house visiting. Sometime during the visit, James tried to kill one of my mother's three cats with an ax. Somehow, we were able to get to her (the cat) in time to take her to the vet before she died. James acted like he didn't know what had come over him and as if he saw little wrong with his actions. The cat did live and had these weird plastic things on her chest that we were required to keep there while she healed. My sister and mother seemed to see little wrong with his behavior also and I was the only one who was upset at all.

Anyone for Curry?

Dear Peregrin,

I get up and go out to the kitchen for breakfast. There are lots of people there, and I'm surprised. What are they doing in my house? All the people are eating curry and rice. I hate curry so I grabbed a piece of fruit for my breakfast.

Herding Cats

Dear Peregrin,

Dream starts with one kitten. As dream progresses, more kittens appear. They seem to be strays interbred with pedigreed. Eventually there are hordes of kittens, some walking on branches outside the bedroom window, some feeding from mother cats on the bed. One kitten was grey with brick-red coloured spots.

Wendy

Look Out, Dorothy

Dear Peregrin,

I've a question to ask. Just a little one. See, I keep having dreams about tornadoes. I have dreams about tornadoes on a regular basis. Does you have any insight as to what tornadoes mean in dreams? All I know is that I am deathly afraid of them, and I've never even seen a real one! Whenever there's a thunderstorm, I hide under the covers, thinking a tornado is going to hit my house, because of the dreams. Weird?

Move Over, Jonah

Dear Peregrin,

I wanted to save little dog that felt into the water, a river. I was standing at the side of the river. At that moment a huge whale appeared, wanting to swallow me. I struggled hard with its teeth to avoid being eaten. I was frightened but I woke up.

Emma

Nothing To Give?

Dear Peregrin,

A group of people and I walk from one place to another. My husband and I walk together. I feel love and desire for him. We are seated around a large table and are being assigned various parts in a play, for we are a troupe of actors. It is a foregone conclusion that my husband will play the male lead. But I am ignored, and find myself seated farther and farther from him.

Another woman, who has also been overlooked in the casting snorts in exasperation, takes my hand, and leads me away. As we walk, I think about what a talented actress she is, and cannot understand why she was not given a part. As for myself, I think that if a part was something I could relate to in my actual life, I could probably read a line convincingly, but I know that I am not a good actress.

As I walk and think, I notice my pretty green dress and white shoes.

We arrive at a restaurant, and sit at a table outdoors. Before she sits, my companion goes to all the tables and gathers up all the people who are alone, and asks them to join us. I scoot my chair over to make room. There are several women, at least two men, and an older woman who at first objects to eating with us, saying "They are all Goyim." But she soon feels the warmth of the group, and settles happily, glad to be included.

To somebody who wonders why he or she was included, I say "Well, because you were dressed for it," because by seeming coincidence, we are all wearing clothing of a similar fabric, a delicate green, printed with small white flowers. The women are wearing pretty, summery dresses and the men have shirts in the same fabric.

We have a wonderful time, so when my companion says it is time we were getting back to the actor's group, somebody says "We should give each other something to remember this by." One of the people my friend has invited to the table wistfully says "Oh, you mean you want something from us." To reassure her, I say "Oh, no! We will give YOU something." but when I search my pockets, I have nothing to give. I feel sad that the connection with those people is now severed.

Picking Up The Pieces

Dear Peregrin,

One beautiful sunny afternoon I spontaneously volunteered to help out at a restaurant. A group of 5 people came in insisting to sit a particular table that was set for 8 people. My mother-in-law was to wait on them and I was to observe how it was done.

Being at such a large table I had difficulty hearing and I had to walk around the table whenever anyone spoke to me. The people were very nice but somewhat passive aggressive as I think on it now. They demanded a lot of attention with a variety of questions. One woman in particular seemed to be the leader of the group - early 50's, gregarious, shoulder length brown curly hair with 2 ears on the left side of her head.

In a relatively short time the restaurant had filled up and my mother-in-law excused herself leaving me with this group. I had to go to the kitchen often in order to get the answers to her various questions on fish and wine. At one point while in the kitchen I discovered her to be standing beside me as if that's where she belonged. I commented on the pretty young lady that was in her party and inquired as to whether she was ready to order yet. The lady made the comment that she wasn't so young and I said to me - she felt to be about 18 years old. The Lady said "Oh, So you're a feeler then, well I've always felt her to be 80 years old" and I accepted what she was saying as quite natural. She walked away and when I went back to the table to finish getting their orders, they had all left.

Under a glass was a small note saying that this had been a test and if I had any questions to call 342-0435. At that point I was close to tears and started cleaning off the table. It was nighttime now and the room was full of shadows making it difficult to see clearly.

A rock glass slipped from my left hand and my son suddenly appeared on his knees picking up the glass and before I could stop him he had cut his fingers and then he was gone. I retrieved a broom and dustpan to sweep it up but the little chunks stuck to the floor and so I knelt down and patiently picked up one piece at a time, carefully putting them in the dustpan - crying all the while because I felt like such a failure. That's when I woke up feeling very dejected and hurt and crying.

Peregrin Walks Again

Good morning, dreamers.

My previous DreamWalker site was lost when the host quite suddenly went out of business.  I had less than 24 hours notice and couldn't back up all my files.  This was, as you might imagine, quite distressing, and for the last couple of years I didn't even feel like continuing. 

Now most of my backup files have been found, or can be re-created, so I'm back in business.  I will start publishing again from my archives, but will handle new analysis requests first.  Hopefully, I'll get back into a strong enough rhythm that I can re-enable my AllExperts account too.

Keep on dreaming!

Peregrin
