A god but not "the" god

In a modern day labyrinth, I had a sexual encounter with a god; it wasn't entirely un-consenting.

All the dream dictionaries online just talk about the Abrahamic god, none of them talk about having sex with a god; and I don't follow Abrahamic religion. I consider myself atheist/agnostic.

What do you think?

What does my dream mean?

Next-door neighbor was shooting at me, while I was standing in the front yard of my house, but I wasn’t getting hit. This wasn’t a next-door neighbor that I have in real life. I actually didn’t recognize who this person was. The only thing that was separating me and him was a simple metal fence. There was not much for to hide behind. even in the dream, I was trying to figure out why I wasn’t getting hit because he was just shooting a lot. and he would stare me down when he was shooting too. He was not resting from shooting. I’m confused.

Is dreams related to death always negative?

Gng, if you see dreams related to death more often than any other USUAL dream, is it negative or bad? Growing up I heard from some of my family members that it means something bad will happen but I never believed in any of those stuff but ngl the dreams are pretty terrifying.

Purple Centipede Wrapped Around My Finger and Bit Me

I had a dream about a purple centipede crawling on my arm. I got scared that it might crawl onto my one-year-old child, so I grabbed it with my other hand. That’s when it bit me and wrapped itself tightly around my finger.

In the dream, the pain felt incredibly real. Even though it hurt so much, I kept trying to pull it off my hand. Eventually, it crawled away again, and I used a stick to lure it onto it before throwing it far away.

When I woke up, I could still almost feel the sensation of the centipede wrapped around my finger.

I’m an overthinker and a bit superstitious, so I can’t help but wonder if this dream has any meaning. I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it.

Toughts about my dream

Hello. God bless.

I'm not big into dreams, nor do i beleve in the sense of predicting the future by ungodly means. But, I had a really "interesting" dream that still bothers me.

Well actualy, two dreams. The first dream wasn't anything serious, an absurd one, if I say so. I woke up to drink some water, and got back in bed. Then i dreamt that I was going to my aunts. Her son died recently. And it was dark outside, i was walking towards the building, and as im entering the building, a man is walking down the stairs in my direction. He looked weird, the best way i can describe him is handsome and well dressed, in a black and blue suit. Then as we walk one by the other, I catch a glimpse of him turning his head to look at me. When I turned to see why is he looking at me. He grabbed me by my shoulders. And draged me into a hallway near the original halway i was in. It had a pair of stairs one going up and the other beside it going down, between them was a PITCH black border, a fog, completely JET BLACK. And it was weird because, it was the dead of night outside, and that border of fog, or just color was too dark. I only knew it was a staircaise that goes down, because i saw the reflection of the light on the lacquered wood handrail. It was really beautifuly carved wood, with "pilliars" supporting the handrail. And the staircase going up was basic, i couldn't see where that staircase goes, i just know it went up, and the other down. And as I stood there gripped by him, he got extremely close to my face. To the point that the farthest up that i could look was his forhead and the farthest down his chin. And the only thing he said was in a calm, dissapointed, but slightly hateful cold tone "God is ashamed of you" (or in my language "Bog te se stidi"). Then he let me go, he perished and at that exact moment I woke up.

This was the biggest punch in the gut i could get, throught my whole life i tried as hard as i can to be faithful to god, I simply love god. And to experience something like this in the midst of a spiritual battle im currently waging against a sin. It shattered me completely for that moment, even now. Its either a warning, or the devil trying to trick me.

What could this mean. Thanks for any indication. And pardon me if the question is silly, or the english sloppy

What could this mean?

last night i had a dream, and it was like someone i knew, and was close to me, like my friend who passed, and they was telling me something like "if he loved you he wouldn't..." "he doesn't love you" and telling me to like get away from my relationship and that it's actually not good for me, and now i don't know what to think...it was like "if he loved you he wouldn't" and then something about his friends and games?

The weird thing is that when she died i said, please come back in my dreams. I don’t know if it’s my subconscious worries…or if it’s actually her trying to tell me that my relationship isn’t right for me…

Repetitive dreams

Hello. I lost my older sister, unexpectedly, earlier this month (she was in ICU on life support for the entire month of May) and I’ve had the same dream, with slight variations, 3 times now.
The first time, we were at an airport type of place and I was with my oldest sister and cousin. I saw my (now deceased) sister in a long line of people, and ran up to her. When she turned around she looked dazed almost, she was definitely not all there. When I asked why she was there and told her she needed to come back with me, everything just poofed. I had turned to take her with me and when I turned back, it was just a wall. Whatever line the people had been in was gone and so were the people.
The second dream was almost exactly the same but we were in some amusement park. The third dream is where some things deviated. I didn’t go find her this time, my cousin did. And she successfully brought her back to me and my oldest sister. She started to speak but then it was like a glitch almost and she stared at me and just shrugged, saying “this is a dream.” When I responded with a startled what?! My (deceased) sister, looked right at me, looking aware this time, stated “this is a dream”. And it was almost like I passed out after that, but I snapped awake. These dreams have really bothered me, as they’re extremely real feeling but I’m not lucid during, just living it. Any advise is deeply appreciated.

Joined just because of this dream

I have been having a regularly reoccurring dream recently. As a child I dreamt very vividly, for example feeling like I was truly living out the dreams. As I’ve gotten older my dreams have occurred less, yet still as just as easy to “control” my dream selves actions. The dream that won’t stop occurring recently is one of my phone breaking while I’m just holding it/the phone falling apart into pieces/half. I’ve had the almost identical dream 3 times now. I always wake up anxious and panicked/scared. This isn’t typical for me when it comes to my dreams. I can snap myself “out” of them normally. Yet these ones are different I cannot stop the phone from breaking nor can I tell myself “it’s a dream I need to to wake up.” Does anyone know what this might mean? Thank you for taking the time to read this!

His feelings got revealed to me in a dream. What could this mean?

I just started talking to a guy and he's 19 years old. I'm 22 years old. When we first saw each other… we thought each other looked familiar but couldn't pinpoint where. He said he told his friend he doesn't usually approach people, but he felt drawn to me, so he had to be obedient.

We ended up meeting in person a couple days ago, and last month… he said he told his family that he didn't have a gf because he was "staying out of the way".

Also... me and him are both spiritual and he asked me to pray for him since he knows i'm a dreamer.

So I prayed for clarity on what he meant by he's "staying out of the way" (because he acts romantically interested in me, so i need to know). And then i had a dream about it....

THE DREAM: So in my dream he was sitting on the couch at a house passionately telling people "i was JUST telling my mom i didn't want NO relationship".

What could this dream mean? What does it sound like is going on?

EXTRA DETAILS: He always liking my instagram stories about wanting true love, he told me a man needs to lead a woman, etc. He's always showing romantic interest in subtle ways.

Anyone ever 'died' in a dream?

I am a vivid dreamer and sometimes have incredibly long and realistic dreams that would be as real as real life if I didn't wake up after that.

One dream that sticks with me, even years later, was one where I lived a mostly normal life.

It included all of my family from my waking life and everything was just three steps sideways - what would have happened if my parents had made a few different choices when I was young and I was raised in a different place. It wasn't any better or worse than my actual life, just different.

I spent the entire dream just going through the routine of regular life. I met up with friends, stressed about a conversation with my mom, went shopping, got giggly over some friend I had a crush on, planned some things for my dad's birthday, thought about a lot of random & regular things, ruminated on the meaning of life, ate ice cream, and just lived a regular life.

Then I started waked up and the reality of things just hit me.

I was still the 'other' me, but I could feel that I was starting to wake up from the dream and realized what was actually happening.

In those last few moments of the dream, I cried because I understood that I was about to lose my life. I would never be able to talk to my friends again because they wouldn't exist, I wouldn't be able to finish the conversation with my mother and wouldn't be there for any future birthdays to come. I wouldn't be able to ever again go back home to my apartment, and I would never see the trees there again.

In effect, I was about to die. And the worst thing was, that when I woke up, I wouldn't even care about everything I lost; it would be just a dream.

I woke up. And it was just a dream.

To this day, I don't feel sad at all about losing the other life because everyone in it were only characters I very vaguely remember and not real people to me. But those last few moments of awareness still really bother me at times.

I saw a white deer in my dream last night.

Where I live there are a couple of albino deer people see, but I’ve never seen one. A white deer showed up in my dream last night, in a wooded field clearing. I can’t remember anything else except that. Any interpretations?

New work? Or reflections on an assertive (from me) exchange with a new “friend”? Or nothing….

I (F, 60’s, self employed pianist, 4 grown up children) dreamt I had a baby (very realistically!) and immediately left it with my neighbour to look after because I had an appointment with some sort of health agency. I didn’t even look to see if it was a boy or a girl.
The woman at my appointment was pretty determined to see me but she kept going off to talk with colleagues (all while I was waiting). I told her I just had a baby and she said “well it won’t hurt it to wait another half an hour” Eventually I had enough and got up to leave , she said “wait! I have a packet for you” I opened it as I left, 3 books, I didn’t look properly. For my other children? And I thought but I’ve got 5 now.
Trying to get home I headed to my last house (6 years ago) and I never made it. All of a sudden I was lost in (a very clean and sanitised) London. A girl asked me where I wanted to go and I said Notting Hill (lived there 40 years ago!) We never got there but somehow I gradually got less panicked and relaxed in the journey
And then I woke up.

I dreamed that we had a house fire

In the dream, I was extremely sure that it was arson, and had been set intentionally. My house didn’t burn down, but there was extensive damage. Any insight?

worst dream of my life

I just had the worst dream of my life

I had a dream where I was stuck and scared in a dark mall alone. I was running around looking for someone at least and I could not find anyone. Eventually I saw a person in my dream. She was one of my real life friends, who I saw as an older sister. She came running to me to comfort me. Thats all I really remember of this dream I had.

This dream really clicked with me when I woke up because I still remember most of it. My chest ached when I woke up because it reminded me of being a child and feeling that same loneliness. I won't go too deep into my personal life so that's all I can give. But someone please tell me, what did I really experience?

Can someone help explain why all my dreams for the past 8 months have all taken place in the exact same places?

sorry if my title is a bit vague let me try and explain

about 6 months ago I began to realise that all of my dreams every night have been taking place in one of like six locations. It's so weird, I can basically map out most of them by memory now.

There's one that's like a beach with a mountian overlooking it, one that's like a weird version of my childhood town, one that's a supermarket I go too that's connected to a carpark, a giant cyberpunk city, this giant jungle gym place and there's a small snowy Canadian town.

Every dream I've had over this year has taken place in one of these areas, the dreams are always different and random but the location stays the exact same and barely any details of the location change. I've recently started trying to make maps of them.

is there a pychological explanation for this? I actually can't remember the last time I had a dream that wasn't in one of these places

Has anyone else ever done crazy things to wake up from a bad dream?

This might be qualified as NSFW if only for the violence part. Though I will not be describing anything too specific.

I use to have a lot of nightmares as a child and teen. I no longer have them now, but because they were so intense I would try to scare myself awake from them, and it actually worked a lot.

For example, as a child I remember having a vivid dream of a dinosaur chasing me. Instead of playing cat and mouse, I turned around and jumped in its mouth. The dream ended and I woke up.

This started becoming a habit. Someone is lurking around the corner in a dream? Run around the corner and face them directly. If a door is looming there and you know something is behind it? Open it as quick as possible and run into the room where it is.

This was something became a habit when I would have nightmares. But as I grew the nightmares stopped being dinosaurs chasing me and developed into more gruesome situations. (Though, I did often dream of gruesome things as a child).

For example, when I was a teen I would dream about drowning. Instead of trying to fight the water and swim, I would give up and duck my head under to stop the dream as quickly as possible.

Here’s possible the NSFW part:
These nightmares would get intense enough that I would often in these dreams, use other tools, such as knifes and rocks to wake myself up. Like, for example, banging my head against a stone to wake myself up from a nightmare when I was stuck outside in the middle of the night. I almost went to therapy for my sleeping issues, but my mother told me that they would think I’m insane for doing those things in my dreams. I also got in trouble for brining it up to a doctor when I was a teen.

Thankfully I no longer have these. I was just curious to see how common this is. Especially considering how young i developed that habit.

Aggressive Dog Dream

Normally I don't put much thought into the previous nights dreams but I had a dream about 3 weeks ago and I can't shake it.

In the dream I'm walking with two dogs in a field when suddenly they take off. They run to an area where a dog is already being attacked and ripped at by two other dogs and the two dogs that were with me begin attacking this dog as well. The dog being attacked appears to have its head stuck in a metal rod fence while it's being attacked.

For the record I don't have a dog, or know any of the dogs in the dream. Does anyone have any insight into this?

Really weird...

This is gonna be weird so bear with me..

I asked my spirit guides to show me "what im ready for, what I need" and told them Im finally ready.

In my dream, I do not remember the man's face, heres the weird part, but we were in a bathroom an he was helping me shave my underarms. The atmosphere was calm, and it was so gentlbit almost felt like nothing

Thats it, thats the dream 😭 Its sooo weird and I DO NOT understand it 😭

*I* believe it means im finally ready to be my loud, proud self and not settle for less than what that man in my dream did. (Not saying I need or want a man at this time. A man just so happened to be in my dream) But I really wanna hear other peoples takes on it.
