So I don't normally think that dreams mean anything but this dream really freaked me out and I wanted to see what you thought. Two nights ago I had a dream that I was at my school and I got a text message from this random guy I met in Nelson and it said "The world is going to end in 8 days". Just a nightmare.. but the thing is I woke up, went back to sleep and had the EXACT same dream again. Then I woke up again and went back to sleep and again I had exactly the same dream. & the dreams were SO vivid. I usually don't remember my dreams, but this time I did. Anyway, yeah I've been really freaked out about it lately. Wednesday June 27th is 8 days from now.. and I was thinking maybe something significant is on this day but I can't think of anything. I don't seriously think the world is going to end, but maybe it means something else. Yeah, I'm probably looking too much into this. Anyway please tell me I'm just freaking out over nothing.
well i don't believe in them being ABOUT "meaning anything" but as experiences to have, in and of themselves, like a kind of parallel universe we sometimes live in, that doesn't work the same as the one we're awaike in, and the two can never be safely confused with each other, but very much, each in their own intrinsicly self consistent within themselves, way, "real". as for worlds ending. that's always a problem with defining terms. we live of the surface of one planet, and there's an infinite or near infinite universe out there beyond it. and i'm sorry but i refuse to think of anything begining and ending with human society. so random people on here are saying the world is going to end on such and such a date and so on two. i know dreams impart a sort of emotional numinousity, i think there are things we can manipulate in them that sometimes affect things that happen elsewhere when we're awaike, not that this is any sort of absolute control thing, or that we can even count on all the time being able to or anything like that. whatever happens on june 27th is whatever happens on june 27th. (my birhtday was may 27th. and i belive there was a book called the 27th day that was written back during when i was in highschool. i'm not sure i ever found out what it was about. i think it may have been some kind of spy vs spy kind of thing but i wouldn't swear to it). so maybe something big and political and stupid is going to happen, or maybe not. or some kid is going to cherry bomb one of the crappers in your school or something, like a bevis and buthead cartoon or the simpsons or something. yah, i definately wouldn't loose sleep over it. i mean, what good is a nonspecific prediction anyway? whatever happens, big or small or not at all, will just have to be whatever does. i can't see a single thing to be accomplished by making a big deal about it. you know, just be especially careful to pay attention to what you are doing on that day. look both ways before crossing streets. all the usual common sense things that all of us need to pay attention to anyway. other then that, that's all anyone can do about anything anyway. isn't it? i'd probably avoid long trips in cars or airplanes on that day maybe. if any happen to be planned, or you know of anyone planning one. not that anything is LIKELY to happen, but sometimes warnings are useful. you just have to be careful about making extreme assumptions about what the're warnings of. and just use good sense only more of it. =^^= .../\...
I agree with themnax, nothing to worry about here really. Conscious and unconscious minds don't speak the same language. An additional thought though. I have had several apocalyptic dreams. They were indeed rather frightening. But nothing horrible ever happened in real life. I have a question for you, is something scary happening June 27th in your life? An exam, the start of a new life-phase, a move, or something 'smaller' you hadn't considered? If so, consider that it's not actually going to be "the end of the world" when this happens.
