Greetings fellow purveyors of the subconscious. I had a dream recently and the more I think about it the more it bothers me. It started with me in a house full of people. The house was bigger than I needed but I had the impression the excess space was for someone else. There was a house warming party going on when I noticed that in the sky outside there were ufos and I knew that the aliens inside wanted to make contact. I tried showing the aliens to others but they couldn't see them, and then when I tried getting outside the doors were suddenly locked and I had the feeling these others were responsible. Then they were shooting guns into the sky and even though they couldn't see the ufos I knew they were trying to stop me meeting them. I then made a conscious effort to take control and deliberately just walked straight throught the locked door but these others then changed the plan of the house so that I was still inside. These 'others' weren't necessarily the same people who had been at the housewarming but I definitely had the feeling they were people I knew. I then moved into the vacant sections of the house where I found that the rooms had been trashed. I came back into the original section to find the people trashing the rooms there as well. I made them stop and tried to clean up the mess, but every time I moved something it caused even more things to collapse. Then I realised that the aliens had already seen what a mess the house was and had gone away. I got angry and increased my efforts to clean up, regardless of how much mess it caused. The others were then telling me how nice the aliens were and how much praise the aliens had given them and I finaly lost patience with the dream and willed it's destruction. Terrible flashes of lightning and tremendous energy poured out of me and when I was done I was standing in a desolate waste all in shades of grey. Everything was flatenned and then a cold wind blew the grey dust from around my feet and I was standing in front of a small tombstone with my own name on it. There weren't any dates or anything else I can remember and that must have been the end of the dream. ___ _ ___ + David Low - s119483@student.uq.oz.au __\__~ \__/__ | NewWaveofNewWaveIndiePopJunkiePsychoPsuedoScientific ---\ /--- | ParanormalHyperspatialExistentialSemiconsciousBullshit "/_\" | -FULL FRONTAL TOTAL NEURAL INFILTRATION- + "Des dedos mis amigos, everything's cool" - PWEI

[ snip ] These people could be the forces of logic. You experience them as trashing your ideas and preventing you from contact with the paranormal. Your frantic efforts to clean your house are your attempts to put yourself in a "receptive" frame of mind. These 'others' seem at times skeptical, and other times believers. This could reflect your doubt. You seem to be experiencing an intrapsychic conflict between what you understand to be reality and the claims of the paranormal. I can understand your confusion. In the dream, you end up destroying the ambiguity, but the effect is nihilism. Let's know if you find an answer. Raymot [[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[

Re: "House Trashing" dream. You opened the description of your dream indicating that it increasingly 'bothers me'. Trust those feelings, which you obviously have started to do, indicated by putting forward your dream for outside comment. I offer the following interpretation in the hope that just some of it might ring true and hence might be of positive use to you right now: The house represents yourself in total, your mind and body, housing your soul and personality. The behaviour of all of us operates through a number of 'selves' within, whos characteristics and traits we model upon people we come across in the journey of our individual lives. Yours are represented by the people you see in the house. UFOs in dreams represent 'out of this realm' beings, symbolising a belief in a world beyond this one - ie. the glimpsing of an after-life of some sort unknown. The house warming party starts off well enough, the many people and the large house represents a generous openmindedness to people and hence concepts on your part, which has probably helped you to notice the 'ufos' and acknowledge a life that is alien to the one we all live materially - ie. a spiritual awareness within you has been awakened, if not consciously at least subconsciously. The 'others' who can't see the ufos, are the other selves within your personality (and aspects of the people they are modelled on) which refuse to acknowledge a spiritual dimension to life, or more importantly, they probably don't think you should openly face it - yet. They may well be locking the door at present, for you own good. The ones shooting into the sky indicate you may have taken some fairly reactionary traits on board, to be handled/faced carefully and slowly (one can be too opened minded for ones own good). In dreams it is a good sign when you find a key to a locked door, however 'willing your way through the locked door', doesn't seem very wise to me. This may represent actions you have taken in conscious life, to reach contact with life beyond, to find meaning beyond the material realm. The reaction of all your other selves was then to rearrange themselves to still prevent you going out the door. All this action and counter-action has messed up the place a bit. The 'aliens' see the results of their impact and retreat - ie. this adds further weight to my view that the 'locked door' is for your own good. The 'aliens' might be praising the 'others' BECAUSE they locked that door. Your following action of 'willing the destruction of the dream' is not good. It's not good to destroy anything, it is better to face things. 'The desolate waste in shades of grey' is not a good image either. Generally, encountering 'a tombstone with your name on it' is not necessarily a bad dream sign, as often such tombstones can symbolise us going through a major personal transition of some sort. However, all the symbolic material about it, such as 'cold wind blew the grey dust' doesn't sound like a positive transition in any way or form to me. The way that you felt when you woke from this dream is important to interpretation here. I would suggest that some of this dream is symbolic of some action you've taken in the past, while the later bit may well be symbolic of possible results in the future if you do so in a like manner again. It has many hallmarks of a 'warning' dream. 'Willing' your way though a 'locked door' is one thing, but 'willing the destruction' of the whole picture show is something else again. (I hope you don't do drugs) If it was my dream, I'd back off seeking a spiritual dimension to life right now via those means you used last time, and get back to the real party - you're only young once, fraternize. The spiritual dimension will come to you all in good time and not before. All the experience you gain will be useful somewhere along the line - providing you keep a mind open to the channel that is your dreams, and to the people around you. The dreams will come to you in times of need and opportunity. You don't have to seek them out, but you do have to pay attention to them when they do come, and honour them with conscious (existential) good actions, when their meaning is clear.
