Odd dream last night....

I woke straight out of it. I was being questioned as to why the word "hymn" has a silent "N", but when you say "hymnal" the "N" is clearly pronounced. In my dream, I had no answer, but it woke me up about 3:00 a.m.

Interesting, Still...  I'm not a whizz at dream interpretation; HB is the one to ask....

I don't have a "gift" for interpreting dreams, but it's something I might read up on at some point.   As I learn things it is interesting to go back to what I've written and see if anything fits.

I'm not one that typically remembers my dreams, but this one woke me up way too early.  It's the first one I recall having about the OW even though it was not about the OW I know about but a combination of a former teacher at my children's school and Nicole Kidman. 

It was Christmas Eve.  My family was staying in a hotel suite near my hometown and yet it was more like the last town in which we lived.  There was some snow, very light, which was odd because usually there is quite a bit of snow by that time in my hometown. 

H and our S left earlier to go do something or other.  D was not there for some reason.  Instead of dressing up I wore a track suit.  I think I may have been sick.  My parents kept calling me to come over and eventually came to the hotel.  They wanted me to eat caramel corn, but I refused it. 

I left to go meet with H and S at the house of the OW's parents.  It was on a main road in my hometown.  I went in.  The parents were very cold to me although I was charming and said what a good teacher their daughter was.  My H, one of my sisters and a BIL arrived, as did the OW. 

She came into the smallish house, making an entrance.  I went from her parents to the door to introduce myself.  Her makeup was odd.  The two-thirds of her face were geisha like.  Her eyes were heavily made up with some strange eyeliner at the outer corners.  The lower half was Fred Flintstone-like but in an orangish color.  She wore all black.  As I introduced myself she pulled back and would not shake my hand.  There was a great look of disdain on her face.  I started to slap her face, but instead I just touched it. 

H was a bit behind me.  He looked horrible and panic stricken. 

Yes, this was an odd one.  I just needed to write it down.

I'm thankful that this subject was back on the main page as i intended to respond to Still's dream months ago when she posted it.

Still, I read your post back in august and had an immediate response, but didn't respond because I thought I was operating in an area that I was not called to. Events have happened since then that have confirmed I am where I'm suppose to be.When things in my marriage fell apart, I thought it was all about my wife getting it together. I was so wrong, cause God has revealed so much about me and His plans for me that I now see our separation as one of the best things that could have happened cause God had tried other less painful ways to get my attention without any success.
Now, I'm living my life His way and I know all will work out.

Now for your dream, the ring on the wrong hand represents your H wrong thinking, which is a theme of this dream. The hug he gave you was to comfort you not to worry during this season.
The monster truck ride represents the journey you're on now.The other people in the truck represents other couples going through this at the same time as you and your H.The scraping metal sounds you "hear"represents the damage to your marriage that you are going to "hear about", but not see.The something that your body kept hitting was the hand of God, on the scence to protect you and your feelings. You can see whats going on, but don;t feel anything that lasts.
When the truck stops, its on its roof, upside down, thats significant.

The death of your H is a spiritual not physical. The bombs from the stealth bomber represents events coming from heaven. God is not sending the bombs, but He will allow them to come to blow things up.Remember, at the end of the truck ride, the truck was upside down.

Still, God is saying, I'm with you, I'll protect you, but because your H has allowed his thinking to be turned upside down, things need to be blown up to get corrected. You will hear alot about what he's doing but I've covered your heart and will not allow this damage to be permanent.I have plans for your H in my kingdom, so don't worry, I'm in control.

Thats it, I pray that gave you clarification as the Lord gave it to me.

Had to stop by...cuz I had a pretty vivid dream last night and when I saw this post straight away at top...I had to share....

Been dealing with loads of grief lately....started the book by Anderson last night..

Had a dream that my H pulled up in front of the house...and we were both wearing "hoodie" sweatshirts..wierd I know...anywho...we locked eyes through my big picture window..and there was this knowing between us that I felt...so I mouthed to him "what's going on"....he communicated to me in some way that he wanted to come in....I felt very compassionate and open in the dream so I let him in by the hand and had him sit on the floor with me...I hugged him and touched his face...don't know if there was a kiss or not..but we were just there in our hoodie sweatshirts..BIZARRO..but the biggest impression are those silly sweatshirts...and his old face too...I saw the old him shining through him...Plus I was laying on the bed with my daughter (2yrs) the other day...and I told her I loved her...she usually says I love you too!  but she said "Dada loves you....daddy loves you too.."...Weird..cuz she never says that..

I took a dream class last year and they taught us how to analyze dreams...which can really only be done by the dreamer..because of each persons individual beliefs and ideas about symbolism..I hope to share how I learned to do it...I'll be back soon.  The woman who taught it explained that it is our unconscious mind bringing things to conscieness...things that have to be brought to light and healed...some dreams are related to our shadow and some not...so interesting...really

Last night I dreamt that there was a huge wall of cereal packets lined up in front of me. I threw something at it with all my might and a hole appeared in the middle of them all. Don't know why they didn't just collapse!

Godspromises,

Wow, what clarity you provided to me. I had to go back and re-read the thread because I couldn't even remember all the details.

I do believe this is absolutely a spiritual battle for my H. He was a Christian when we met, wanted to establish a church before we were married, and we both felt strongly about raising our children with strong values. He has always been the voice of reason of what the right decisions were. He basically mentored me.

Now, he is completely lost. He attends church and Bible study pretty regularly, but went from an active leadership role, to one of very minimal contribution. He doesn't stay for luncheons or go to adult Sunday school. He is a shadow of the person he once was.

I know this ways heavily on him as he told me early in his crisis that he knows what he is expected to do, but feels pulled by all the opportunities free will provides. (Yes, strange thoughts).

Anyway, thank you for taking the time to give me your input.

Last night I dreamt I had come back from our holiday and H was here cutting the lawn. Wishful thinking I think!! I'd pass out on the spot if it happened 

And how strange I should even dream about him (I haven't in months), and in a positive light .... after the day I had yesterday.

For the first time this morning I woke up and can remember my dream.

In this dream I was at a party at my parents house. They have both been dead for many years and my sister and her family live there now. I can't remember seeing any of them there, nor anyone else I recognised except for my husband.  He was stood with a group of people talking and laughing. I just seemed to be stood on the outside of it all watching. He caught my eye and he smiled at me. I can remember thinking I didn't want to be there and said I felt ill.

The next thing I am sat on the roof of our very tall Victorian house!!! It has a sloping tiled roof and it was laid out with cushions and pillows. My H climbed up and sat next to me, and said he would not pursue me again for a couple of weeks until I was ready. I then began to slide off the roof and landed gently on the floor. He hugged me and then the girls came running over. I put up my hand to wave them away and they backed off smiling. He then said something else to me which was very nice, but that bit has faded and I can't remember what he said.

I have no idea if it means anything at all, maybe someone else does.

[In this for ME]

I haven't had any really significant dreams since the BD at least none I can remember but H was having a reoccuring one that was happening for more than two years ago about being chased by a bear.

He is a big man 6"4" 250 lbs so anything he cannot match physically terrifies him. He said he would try everything-climb trees and jump out  of them run through buildings barracade doors, anything he could do to get away from this charging bear.
 
I may have looked up the meaning then but I still wouldn't have a clue it had anything to do with his MLC. One interpretation I found below:

To dream about being attacked by a bear, suggests boldness and mounting barriers in your way and possibly competitiveness. You could possibly be placed in a dangerous situation. Bears represent the cycle of life. This could signify a moment in your life that requires self-analysis and deep thought. This dream could also be an acronym of 'bare,' indicating that you might have to 'bare your soul' and reveal yourself openly.

Sort of fits now...
