Hello again
I had another dream the other night and was wondering if any of you could offer your opinions on it, I can guess at some parts what it means but as to the overall message I'm a bit stuck
k, here it is -
All I can remember is being part of a group of magical people with magical powers, this I know is from a book I have been reading lately, the group are called 'Aes Sedai'. I am in what looks like the arctic with one of the members of this group - 'Moiraine' (again, one of the main characters in this book) - and we are walking across a plane of ice as far as the eye can see, there are glaciers and ice hills everywhere and the landscape is tinged blue from the sheen coming off the ice, somehow it is strangely beautiful. In the dream I can remember having a sense of foreboding like I usually do in dreams, I knew something bad could happen. Anyway, me and this Moiraine character reached a certain point where the ice was just black, black ice - the really slippery stuff. I think there was an island in the middle of this ice just floating and I'm sure there was something on it, something like a heavy piece of machinery maybe? Not sure. I don't think I realised that the ice was very very thin so I stepped out confidently onto it and it gave way beneath me, plunging me into the icy depths. I can remember having the distinct feeling that I'd died but I was still there. Moiraine started giving me what felt like the 'last rites' as if she could not see me. She spoke of (something like) - ' You were a great and powerful member of the Aes Sedai and we thank you for your services to your country, may you rest in peace now'. It was the services to country bit I remember most vividly. I recall feeling absolute despair when she said this and just a horrible unsettling feeling that stayed with me even when I was awake.
Then things seemed to turn sour because I was technically 'dead' but I was with other people who had died and we all seemed to be resting on top of a white podium thing on velvet cushions in the middle of the icy river I remember being really evil in this bit and a very nasty person. I was highly angry because I had died and not lived due to a freak accident, and I thought it wasnt fair. So I tried to hatch a plan with the others to take over the 'living' as such, and I said something like 'come on, we are evil and dead, we can overpower them, lets unite together' (really scary) I had a really hideous face at this point, twisted and grotesque. The others didnt seem to care that much and remained silent and indifferent to me. I also remember going up to that Moiraine person and trying to be scary but she just gave me a withering look and said 'right ok' as if I was nothing.
The next last little bit was me sat at this computer, still being dead, but being back to myself and having no ice around. People came through our front door which is by the comp in the hall and I remarked on being dead, holding up my arm and saying something like 'look, can you tell I'm dead?' Also, I remember having a sickly grey aura around me at this point which I could see, and this was a hallmark of me being dead, in other words because I had this aura I definitely knew I was dead.
It's a weird one I know but aren't they all? haha.
Drop a comment if you want to, be nice to hear your thoughts
