Dark Mansion

[bennuwings]

I've been having reoccuring dreams about rooms in a dark mansion. Sometimes the rooms blur by but the feeling of them lingers, other times I can actually go into them and actually do something. This was defiantely a do something night.

The room was long and had two sets of folding doors at the end of the room for a closet. The one on the right was open and the ceiling fan in the center of the room was going pretty fast. The room was dimly lit from outside the open windows, wind blowing the drapes pretty strongly. I had a light bulb in my hand, like a vapor light bulb.

As I stood up in a chair to stand high enough to put the bulb in the ceiling fan, i got really dizzy and sat down in the chair abruptly. As the spinning and dizziness got faster I felt the chair move, like someone was moving it along.

I knew someone was moving it, so I told them it wasn't their place anymore. The chair stopped moving against a wall, and the right closet snapped open. I moved back under the ceiling fan and screwed in the lightbulb (without the chair, almost like i was floating high enough), and the bulb flickered to life, studdering.

A little girl ran out of the closet and into my arms, then she was telling me no like she didn't want to go - very conflicted. As I moved out of the room with her she started yelling no. I told her it didn't matter - that someone (she) was dead. She silenced right up like she knew what i meant.

We got about 3 steps down the carpted stairwell and then a presence came out of the room we were just in and rushed toward us (A similar girl with long black hair covering her face). She missed her lunge and tumbled down the stairs and hit the wooden landing at the bottom and I got the image of a rag doll.

She stood back up and came up the stairs again, so I grabbed her and pitched her into the living room where a group of people were waiting, sitting on the sectional couches with the lights on bright and talking cheerfully.

It ends there and i woke up, but i recognized the house and the room. It was my house a long time ago when I lived in Illinois, and the room was my brothers room at the top of the stairs. I'd always thought the house had some kind of presence in it - I never would have guessed which room though.

There have been other rooms before this one that I've traversed and done things in, but never in a house i used to live in. This was a first.

Dear Bennu,

Have your heard the saying, " In my father's house their are many mansions". I believe this analogy is related to the spirit world, but also in dream symbology, it is related to the psyche, to YOU.

A mansion, is a very large house, when we dream of houses, the
symbology is related to the I, to the person. You my friend, have many facets, aspects to your psyche. The house, has many rooms, each room represents a part of YOU.

This dark mansion, simply refers to an aspect of you, that is not fully revealed to you. A place, that you are exploring, aspects of your mind that you are exploring, maybe even aspects of your awareness of spirit presence.

The closet that is in the room, contains things that you have not yet looked at..or have looked at, but has not been revealed to you properly, not YET, but it will be. This is shown by the light bulb, that lovely expression, light bulb moments comes to mind!! You are starting to see, you have the wherewithal within your grasp to see.

Feeling dizzy, could indicate that you are not grounding yourself properly, this sense of dizziness might indicate that you are trying so hard to see clearly, that you are too much in the head. Maybe an overactive brow or crown chakra, these need to be balanced. Go within using meditation, find calmness and clarity. You may find it usefull to use crystals while meditating to help with grounding. A very good stone for grounding is Haematite.

The little girl, could be an aspect of childlike innocence within you, but also she may represent a feminine aspect of yourself. For a man to see a young girl in his dream, can be symbolic of feminine qualities, of innocence, gentleness and nurturing. You have this within you as many women have aspects of the masculine within their psyche. Use this part of yourself, to help you connect fully with your higher self. There maybe an element of spiritual awareness here..sometimes, we do connect with spirit in sleep, you did say that when you lived in this childhood home, you were aware of a presence. This may have been a beginning for you, when you first became aware of a spirit presence..who knows, it is what feels right and resonates with you??

Stairs, in dreams can either indicate a rising in conscious or descending, there are many levels within our unconscious mind. The living room, into which you brought this aspect of yourself, is a place, which is the public face we present to the world. It is not the entirity of who we are simply a face we choose to show, that face as you know can change day by day, minute by minute, as we are constantly changing and evolving.

I think you are coming to grips with many things in your life, you are exploring aspects of your inner self, changing, growing and evolving. Embrace all aspects of yourself, use that Innocent, nurturing side to your nature. Do not suppress it, to become something others expect of you. You will rise and descend constantly, as you move forward through life. I do feel that you are aware of spirit, part of you is afraid of this ability, and tries to suppress it. Don't be afraid of it Bennu, bring it out into the light, and your dark mansion, will become a house of light..as you are my friend, let your inner light shine out..

I hope this has helped Bennu, this is only my interpretation of your dream, simply take from it only that which resonates with you and leave the rest...

Love and light
