The Dream:
I believe I have written a book. I have given the draft to Penny & Randy,
who took it to a neighbors house. We are all living in homes set up like
condos, back to back and each has one room each. So its a community of these
single
unit condos and we (all of my friends) seem to be living there. Back to my book, I
had an illustration for the cover and it was a picture of a woman. She was
turned to the left and its a profile shot but her back, (a shadow side - in the shadows - something) facing the
right, also had her face and the right side was pregnant. I got the impression from the
illustration that my book was about the two sides of women and that the gist is we
have a
tendency to turn away from is the prgnant side. I am in the process
of trying to find Penny and Randy so I can show them the illustration that goes with the story.
I am in water. It seems like the ocean and there is a large stationary tank
that seems like a gas tank floating in the water. I keep imagining what it
would be like if you were stranded in the ocean and only had this tank to
get out of the water and how would you not burn in the sun and keep sharks from being
attracted to you. I have an underwater shot of this tank. Then I find that I
am actually in a very large pool and either the tank has turned into a bomb type shell
with a chain and ball / anchor, or I have found a bomb / shell type of thing.
Anyway, I am discussing what this thing is when I believe my brother points out a destroyer on the far side of the pool
and I remember them firing off torpedoes so these must be torpedoes. So I say what the heck do we do with them and Ron says that liquor stores love
the ball and chain piece because they pair it with a bottle of alcohol and
make a whole medieval set from it and charge more money. The bomb portion can be
turned back into the navy or whatever.
I am walking with an old friend, who I can't remember now, and we walk down a road and I
cut through her house to continue my journey. I pass the living room where her
husband is sitting and I didn't even know she was married. I try to squeeze between her tree and her fence but there is a big
spider web, several actually, and I am concerned about having to knock them down when I realize I can just go around the whole thing.
I am at a meeting of a spiritual sort and we have brought food to share. I
am eating quite a variety. Penny is there also with several of our friends,
even though I only remember Penny now. At one point the one teaching or
leading begins to lead us in song and she defers to one of the people in our
group. Penny starts interrupting and asking if it is really necessary for
the singing being that it is kind of dumb to have them sing just one song.
They try to ignore Penny and keep singing. I am very confused on what they are doing
singing and why Penny doesn't want a solo singer.
I went to my dentist office and the lady that last did my teeth is no longer
there. They want me to reschedule to Friday for a cleaning and I am like no I have a
cavity I need filled and my cleaning is scheduled for Thursday.
They are like well we are booked up Thursday and I am arguing that I scheduled for a filling and cleaning so its their problem not mine. I don't
want to use the new dentist and I tell them that the woman dentist is the
only one I have ever seen that didn't cause me pain when she worked on me. They tell
me that she wasn't very reliable and rarely showed up and they don't even know where she
is now. I felt like they were giving her a bad reputation so I would stay with their
office and not seek her out.

Insights and Interpretations:
Bizarre sequence...I have to say that
the whole bomb thing I found extremely amusing when my brother starts telling me that they
use the chain and anchor to make medieval sets...it just cracked me up at the absurdity of
it all. Have no idea of the significance but even if I did understand, I can't
imagine that I would be able to take it very seriously under the circumstances.
I like the piece of walking with an old
friend that I can't even remember because it kind of says something to my soul of walking
with friends from other lives that maybe we don't even recognize face to face this time
through. And since the spider web has a tendency to represent fate type of stuff to
me - the interpretation feels very strong.
I think the two faces of women sort of
speaks on its own, only my take was that women have a tendency to neglect their creative
or pregnant side and keep it in the shadows...I should write a book!
