Okay, so I have been reading Sylvia Browne's Book of Dreams mostly because my dreams are so vivid and I am easily frightened by some of them. First off, she says that there are 5 types of dreams: prophecy dreams, wishful dreams, problem solving dreams, release dreams, and astral visits. She goes into what each of these are, but you get the picture from the descriptions. Now, I have to say that I have had all these sorts of dreams (and I will go into this in detail in my other blog, Dreamscapes), and I have followed them (aka kept a dream journal) on and off for years. But I have been having the strangest, most compelling (to me) ones in the past week or so.
One involves an old boyfriend who was in my dreams about 3 times in about a week. Now, this guy was my boyfriend about 30 years ago and I haven't even seen him in almost 8 years. But there were these very vivid dreams where he was there. In the weirdest one, he gets very upset and tells me that someone (either his son or his dad) has this big mass in their back and he is very worried about it. This is in the midst of a very clear, colorized, and the action takes place in logical sequence (doesn't jump around, making little or no sense). Sylvia Browne says that this is the form that prophetic dreams take, and a prophetic dream can be mixed with an astral visit. Sure is what it felt like to me, but I am not about to call this guy and see if something is wrong with his dad and scare the **** out of him.
I also had a set of very vivid dreams about a series of terrorist attacks, one taking place in LA, something about bridges where all the freeways intersect and cross over one another (think suicide bomber or truck bomb) and another at the same time linked to Bradley Air Force Base. I keep hearing a voice saying 'Bradley Air Force Base' again and again. Okay, so I would normally disregard these dreams as release dreams (which Browne says are the ones that help you confront your deepest fears). But they were, again, in color, logical, in straight progression, etc. And that is not enough to make me worry, but I have had this series of weird 'voice' dreams over the past year or so, where I hear a voice say something and then it comes true. These are usually involving sports (which I actually have no interest in, so I wonder why these are my dreams)...example, one night the 'voice' said, very clearly, "The Spurs won the series." Okay, so I didn't even know there was a 'series' going on or what sport it was. Then, the next day, I turn the tv on CNN and the announcer says, "Well, the Spurs won the series last night." Odd, yes. But this happened to me over and over again over the course of a year. And my friends kept telling me that next time it happens, they wanted to know cuz they would place bets on whoever my dream guide was telling me was going to win at whatever they were doing.
So, now in my dream last night, I got the 'voice' again. I keep wondering if I am tapping into something that I don't really want to know about, cuz what am I going to do about it?
