It's so strange, how your subconscious can take symbols and ideas from other things that are familiar to you, and use them in direct or indirect ways to show us something.
Like most of my more memorable dreams, this one was beside an ocean. There was a meteor (I'm a huge fan of final fantasy seven, by the way, yes, it was THAT meteor) coming for the earth. I was running along a grungy looking beach, under a bridge and far beyond.
I'm not sure why, but I was carrying a Raichu and my teddy bear as I ran. Then it hit. It hit in the ocean, so it caused a huge wave. I believe that was on a movie too... i dont remember what it was called unfortunately, that was the only part I saw. I believe it had elijah wood in it. *shudders*
Anywho, i saw the waves coming, and i was screaming out the name of my boyfriend, looking for him frantically before i died.
The dream quickly changed form, and I was in the same spot, but the waves had become solid ice, a huge wall towering over me and showing no sky, a gargantuan cavern with regular sized frozen waves still in their normal process of lapping at the shore, only perfectly still.
I wasnt sure why at the time, but all over, there were metal rods and support structures pushed through the ground from below, as though they were part of some construction underground that had been caved in on.
After a moment of being stunned, I began to run about looking for him again. Under the crest of one frozen wave, i noticed something most odd. It looked like a heat vent, like most houses have located in every room, the metal bars and all. it was huge, however, about as big as your school's whiteboard or chalkboard if that is the case.
I heard his voice calling from below, and I pressed my head to the bars, looking at the world below. There was a second layer, apparently, just beneath the surface of our lives. It was very deep, and had huge supports holding up the world I was on, all mechanical and golden. It was ratehr dimly lit, I could only see the bottom where the vent let light from my world through, and I saw him run into it.
I asked him if he was all right, he said he wasn't hurt but couldn't find a way out. I looked back at the wierd lit structures that had impaled the surface, and told him I would find a way down. That was where the dream ended.
I had another oceanic dream last night. This one wasn't the end of the world, however. I was with my boyfriend in this tropical, warm, open land, right beside an inlet of sapphire blue waters.
We were also with Aki and Storro, two of my imaginary friends that i had when i was little. suddenly, i heard the trumpeting, thundering, deafening roars, and looked to the horizon. some huge creatures were galloping out of the see, as big as mountains, tongues lolling, big burly hairy dog-mammoths with curly horns and oddly bendy legs.
"Banthavas!" All the fuzzy people cried, and dashed to their holes. Aki and Storro led us to a safe place. "They looked so cute, like big huge bantha-puppy things!" I exclaimed. (a bantha is that thing on star wars that the sand people rode, sort of a giant mammoth being without a trunk. i have only ever seen star wars once, by the way... im not sure how that stuck in my head)
Aki shook his head. "they eat our people! all the scriptures say that." My boyfriend asked when the last one had been eaten, and nobody had an answer. he assumed that the banthavas were actually just playful giants. "You can only feed them with four fingers, and it has to be hashbrowns and water." my love explained.
he put his thumb across his palm to cup in the hashbrowns, and had his fingers cup the water. He then left the hole, followed by all the others, and fed one if the titanic banthavas. It proved successful, and all the furry people learnt that these creatures were really harmless and would never hurt a fly.
I dont know what was up with that dream, buit it was vivid, and very happy, so i figure i ought to have written it somewhere.
