sighthound

Hi Lians, Thanks so much for the time you have taken to look over my dream. There are one or two things that jump out at me. You have definitely have hit the nail on the head with certain things! I will come back to it and respond when I have had chance to have a really good think. Kind regards to you. Rach (P.S. Sighthound is because my dogs are very important to me, they are sighthounds but not hunting dogs.)

Hi - I'd really appreciate if anyone was willing to take a shot at analysing my dream from a few nights ago. I don't undertand the dream and haven't been able to make any real connection with why it makes me feel so sad every time I read it. I get breathless and a tight chest even when I just think about it. In the dream I am on the outside watching another version of myself, like I am watching a movie with me in it, but I can feel all the feelings of my other self. I am happy to answer any questions if more detail is needed. So here it is..... I see myself in a warehouse at the centre of an abandoned district of a large City. The City is dark, grey and dank. It is smoggy and cold outside. Raining. The warehouse roof is held up with large brick columns which are evenly spaced around the outside of the rectangular room. It is vast and dark . The only light comes from small windows at ceiling height all around. I look over and they are both there. I know who they are but I don't know their names - I have forgotten. HE is a professor, scientist and medical researcher. He is intelligent, corrupt and manipulative. I have worked with him in the past and so I know him all too well. I have the impression that the 'me' I see standing in the warehouses afraid of him and of what might happen if his plan was to succeed. SHE is gullible, naive, superficially 'nice' and self indulgent. She wants the creature and he wants rid of it. He created a monster...and I helped him. The creature is there standing next to her. A tall and lithe quadruped. It is genetically and mechanically enhanced. I know it is super intelligent - far superior to any of us. It is cunning. Behaving like a cute pet rolling around like a puppy or kitten would, rubbing it's face on her leg. I see the malice in it's eyes. I stand some distance away and watch with horror at the danger of the situation unfolding before my eyes. I know that if she takes the creature it will cause apocalyptic devastation to the world. ARMAGEDDON! I know she can't be relied upon to refuse and I wait feeling my heart pounding in my ears. I hold my breath for seconds that seem to stretch out and stop time. She decides… She is going to take it! I gasp for breath and feel dizzy and faint. I have to run away! I see myself running outside. It is dark and street lamps light both sides of the road. I am running back to the place I live, my chest is burning with panic. This place is not my home, I had to leave there months ago because I was scared that I was being watched. I climb up a wall covered in Ivy and onto the garage roof so I can get in the window upstairs. I go this way so that the 'watchers' don't see me. It is locked and I can't get in. I am crestfallen and curl up on the roof sobbing. I will have to spend the night there. I wake just before dawn and I ache everywhere from lying on the hard roof. I am suddenly awash with melancholy. It is the last day of my life, the end of the world and everything in it. The creature has been freed to do it's evil and there is nothing I can do to prevent it. As I climb down I see a figure glowing in the blue light of dawn. It is a large dog - rather like a Great Dane. It is captivating and draws me in by holding my gaze. I can see kindness and gentle loyalty. I know I can trust it. I feel like it has come to protect me, even though we both know that ultimately it will fail. We will both die along with everyone else, but it will keep on trying. I kneel down in front of the dog and put my arms around it's neck, it feels comforting and smells familiar and warm. I feel a deep sadness and regret for the life that I am soon to loose. Now that the creature was free. I stand and walk, the dog walks beside me, it looks up at me and I down at it. I have accepted my fate and we continued walking together and wait for apocalypse to arrive. It will be soon. ............................................. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

I am a long time listener and was first introduced by my partner to FDR. We donate together (just so y'all don't think I'm a freeloader!). I decided it was time to join up. I hope you will be gentle with me. I intend to throw myself in at the deep end and post one of my dreams over the next couple of days. I hope to get some feedback and get to know the members here in time. Rach
