Jamie's Freaky Dreams

Some people believe that dreams have meaning. I don’t really know how I feel about that but I had the freakiest set of dreams last night. Any dream readers out there?

I dreamt that Heidi and I among other people I didn’t know were just hanging out in a house by the ocean and I looked out a window to see a giant tornado. In a panic, I ran around screaming and grabbed Heidi to find safety in the basement bathroom. I thought this would be the safest place. We jumped in the bathtub and my dad is there crouched in the shower.

The tornado picked up the entire bathroom and dumped us into the Ocean. The room started to sink into the ocean so we quickly swam out the window and onto a Hawaiian looking beach with rocks and a shore covered in army men who where camouflaged like massive piles of sea weed.

With each crash of the ocean wave, we watch the soldiers creep further up the shore. As people ran down to the water, soldiers would strike up quickly and capture unsuspecting women and children as they quickly hid again.

Crouched behind rocks were Heidi, my dad, and myself. I was scared out of my mind, breathing heavily and trying to figure out how to get out of there when I saw my mom walking down to the beach ready for a swim. Just as the others had disappeared beneath the hidden soldiers my mom was snatched up. In horror, I immediately ran to the soldiers and began to smash my fist into his head. He gave my mom back to me, she crashed to her knees soaked with water, and barely alive she said she had been gone forever and had experienced terrible things. I tried to console her but she was too broken and lifeless.

The next thing I can remember is Heidi and I at her mom’s house. She had a huge house with panel windows overlooking the beach. After dinner, Heidi and I went outside to star gaze and had remembered her dad saying something about a meteor shower. So we lied down and watched the stars fall in awe. It was the most spectacular thing I had ever seen.

Then, giant meteors shot across the sky. I mean massive flaming meteors. In a panic we ran into the house and the entire family ran to the basement. All of Heidi’s immediate family was there and everyone decided to try and be as calm as possible for Heidi’s niece. So everyone was pretending that we weren’t going to die. They turned on a movie and read books to Heidi’s niece.

Me? I was freaking out, trying to think of every possible way to survive. I went over to Heidi’s dad and asked him what to do and he just said it would all be fine. The meteors weren’t going to be a problem. Eventually we all went to sleep and the next morning sat down to breakfast. I was sitting at a table facing the ocean. The ocean was still and beautiful when all the sudden an enormous wave came crashing against the glass walls of the house. I again jumped up in a panic while everyone seemed to be fine.

Then I woke up.

So if you are a dream reader, maybe you can tell me what all that chaos means. :)

  1. That is pretty weird. I am one of those dreams mean things most of the time people. You've got me on this one though. Maybe it is just the whole natural disaster of moving I dunno. Oh and you can call her your niece too since she is yours now. Remember how happy she was about that? Oh cute!

  2. Alright, so you asked for me to respond to your posting so here’s my two cents about the dream  There were 6 things that I thought were significant so I googled them and went to my favorite dream interpretation site and this is what they said:

    The Ocean: Represents the state of our emotional feelings, if the ocean is rough then you are doing your best to handle life’s ups and downs. (the last time you were near the ocean it was calm and you were surrounded by the people you love for your wedding and now you are feelings distressed and without those people which is why it is now in chaos)
    Stars: Symbolize excellent, success, aspirations or high ideas. You are putting some decisions in the hands of fate or luck. You are trying to evaluate a situation or establishment.
    Bathtubs: Suggest a feeling of need or self renewal and escape from everyday problems. You need to rid yourself of the burdens you’ve been carrying around and it indicates your mood and desire for relaxation.
    Tornados: Represent extreme emotional outburst, you are feeling overwhelmed or out of control.
    Army/Army Men: Represents an empowering force against you. You may feel outnumbered or pressured and are unable to deal with the situation
    Parents: Represent shelter, power and love. Death of a parent represents a significant change in your life and letting go of your child self.

    They say that you have to interpret your dreams based on certain symbolism and look and see what was happening around you at the time of the dream when these symbols are around. If that makes any sense.
    Pretty fun dream though, you remember lots of things you must have been really tired before you fell asleep. Sounds to me like things are a little hectic and out of control right now and you are looking for some calmness and a sense of normalcy but also are missing some of the comfort from your family. Keep sending the dream things I love dream interpretation  Miss you guys. Keep blogging.
