First Dream:
I was stranded in australia with [FRIEND ONE] and [FRIEND TWO] we were out of money and to get some we entered a shark rodeo. we won and with the money we built a buffo-buffo toad farm (wich was [FRIEND ONE'S] idea, [FRIEND TWO] wanted to go back home so I had the deciding vote and I voted toad) after we built a huge shed we went toad hunting, I licked the first one I caught.

Woke up at about 2am with cottonmouth, went downstairs and drunk an entire bottle of applejuice and went back to bed.

Second Dream:

I was hanging crucified above a fireplace in a log cabin with a blizzard outside, my head was upside down (like the exorsist but then upside-down instead of backwards) and I was breathing fire while shouting 'I'm the devil'. my two regular eyes had nails sticking out of them and were bleeding, only my third eye was open and could see myself hanging there. there was also a bulldog who had a long thick toungue like a cow and was licking dead faces who were growing out of the floor.


Third Dream:
I was at a pool, swimming and [FRIEND THREE] was playing in a band that looked like omnia (a dutch folk-band) only with only two people. [FRIEND THREE] on vocals and electric guitar and some dude I did not know with towering hair who was playing a sort of 26 stringed lute. the band also had a backing bass track on tape wich sounded impossible to play. (I play bass) also some dude kept showing up every ten minutes to measure my feet and offer me flip-flops. also [FRIEND FOUR] was there disguised as a renegade sheriff handing out fines to people for being stupid in general (and they were giving him money for that).

Woke up at noon sharp. my phone was ringing and I missed my volunteers shift at the old-peoples centre. I slept through my alarm




Thanks in advance and kind regards.

EDIT:
looking back this was posted kinda hasty  
The second dream is very slap-bang in the middle and pretty off-beat in contrast to dream 1 and 3.
To be completely honest the second one really is from last saturday and the first and third are truly from tuesday night, I was pondering about the second dream all week because it kind of freaked me out a little that appearantly Im able to dream up somthing fu**ed up like that. I wasnt really what you'd call anxious to tell anyone about it but hey, this is the internet so whatever.
The other two (far less dramatic and hardcore) dreams are just there on the board I guess as a sort of testemony that im not only dreaming weird horrible shit, I' m just really hoping someone can give me an accurate interpretation on the nonsence-making dream of a hellish bulldog licking dead faces.

peace.

Zirilan – Well I am having a go at your dream number two. It has some unusual images so I am doing my best to understand them, so bear with me if I am right off the mark.

I wonder whether you grew up in a rather orthodox or religious environment, because you seem to be still having a battle with it. You are trying to become independent from it, but that is difficult because it is the past pattern that is difficult to get out of your flesh. I put it in that language because past environments are in some way built into our body, and to change them takes work.

Being crucified upside down is one of the things done in black magic to do everything different or as a mockery of Christian symbols. It was done as a way of breaking the inbuilt links, psychological and physical with those beliefs. It is something a lot of young people do, not in the form of crucifixion, but in the form of tearing themselves away from clothing, appearance and beliefs of their parents or the institutions they do not respect. It is a way of become free. Unfortunately freedom is a hard goal, and so many become trapped in the attack on the old.

Breathing in fire and shouting, “I am the devils” is a part of the break from traditions. Another way of being upside down or reversed; Devil is Lived spelled backwards, so it is like saying I will do something that turns my life inside out.

The nails in the eyes are perhaps a way or showing how the view of everyday life is painful for you, or even as a form of torment.

The bulldog – well you are surrounded by a view of death being all around you – and the dog licks the faces of those it loves usually. It seems that you have trouble with facing death, and this is something that it is apparent in a lot of people who are rebelling against fate or life as it is, they do not know how to face death and going beyond the awful picture of it our present culture paints. Perhaps reading the book Closer to the Light http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/search/ref=as_li_qf_sp_sr_tl?ie=UTF8&keywords=978-0804108324&tag=waves04&index=aps&linkCode=ur2&camp=1634&creative=6738 might give a different feeling about it.

Hi Tony, thanks.

I was raised christian. the normal educational be-a-good-person kind, not the ''you worship the lord when your in MY home'' gestapo-like tyranny so Im not having any kind of trouble with religion nor am I trying to rebel against the cult of the cross. also due to my life experience I consider myself more of an animist than a cristian when it somes to describing religious vieuws.
My religeous vieuw is really more of a melting pot focused on all the good parts of all religions so lets just say 'me and the guy upstairs and downstairs are cool'

as for the crusifiction only my head was upside down like this. not the entire crux.  (owl unrelated) http://www.clipartreview.com/_images_300/An_owl_turning_its_head_upside_down_100828-123042-851009.jpg

i think thats a good interpretation   
life isnt always pretty and thats very clear to my eyes depending mostly on the weather, my mood-swings and judgemental bird-vieuw of human life on this planet.
seeing that you were mostly right on my post of a half a year ago ill keep an eye out for anything that should 'turn my life inside-out'

as for the bulldog, my life has always been surrounded with death (but who hasent, this is life afterall). ive been exposed to it at a very young age, myself once almost drowned, got hit by a car, fell from a school building and have been very lucky surviving life so far in general. Every two years or so one person I know seems to drop out of life and I dont really have any problems dealing with it, I consider it just a natural part of the cycle.
suicides are still a little fucked up depending on the situation but its still the persons own chioce respectively. I just count my blessings and am happy to be still standing up healthy as the person I am today.

so yah.. thank you again mr. Crisp
