I was in a little shop, or someone’s healing room. There were 2 other women – something happened where one of the women was about to leave or had something wrong with her. The other woman said something like, “well, lie down and let’s see what your body says”. She reminded me of LW (she looked more like me, though…the profile/nose, only thinner and older). She was doing something like BodyTalk on the other woman, who laid down on her massage table.
I felt some distress and was thinking in my mind about how she needed to do an ecology check – we were both doing Matrix Energetics (basically using imagination and intuition and play), I could feel a non-physical body of something to the woman’s right, and there was a "thread" over to the left of her neck that I wanted to pull out. I think it was her reasons for wanting to be sick. Anytime the other woman would make a shift, the woman lying down would sit up and sort of argue for why she needed to be that way. I was thinking “ecology check”. The woman on the table finally sat up to leave, looked straight at me, and said emphatically, “I’ve had (a particular kind of) leukemia, so I’m probably going to have pain in my hips.”
Don’t remember exactly what happened next – then I think I was supposed to close up the shop and go back to mine next door. Disjointed scenes of going outside, there is a metal wire rack with jewelry on it, most noticeably some big flowery earrings (Bakelite style), orange/red. They were facing away from the road..I may have turned them to face the road so people could see them, then understood why they were facing away and put them back.
I was by the concrete back steps of a house, I put out some cat food. An orange and white tabby came up to eat, then the food changed to something weird, clumpy bird seed or something. Another cat appeared, maybe chasing the other one away. It was black and fluffy.
I suddenly felt worried and rushed to get back to “my” shop, that I had left unattended and open while I was in the other shop. I thought of the cash registers in there, and worried that I had been robbed. I got back to my place, it was old. I noticed a door in the hallway that was open that I believed I had left closed, and felt some fear again that I had been robbed.
I walked in, it was dark and dusty and musty (reminds me of old room in a previous lucid dream). I wondered then or later why I would even be worried, all of this was pretty much old junk.
There was a an old, dusty, rust-colored couch over to my right, that was long and some of the cushions were knocked off and over. I thought maybe the ‘robbers’ had trashed the place, simultaneously thinking it was already disheveled like that.
I passed the living room, where an enormous television was playing sound, with a red indicator light ON, but no picture. I thought the ‘robbers’ had probably tried to see if it worked and realized it was an old junker. Images in my mind of a cluttered room, worried about my iPod.
Woke up to the alarm, conscious mind thinking WTF what a nasty, dirty place full of old crap. It reminded me, in feel, of the living room of a place I used to live where they set the table, arranged the furniture, and then never used it or touched it for the next couple of decades.
(To my knowledge, I do not have leukemia or any symptoms of such - I have experienced debilitating hip and back pain for the past 3 years, after a period of being athletic and flexible. My first thoughts upon waking were that the woman was an unknown relative (I'm adopted) I had somehow aligned with and taken on her pain.)
