As I often repeat in dreams, I was traveling by car to another city, similar to driving to my piano lessons with my mom in my past, but of course she wasn't there with me and I started the trip in the dream alone. The theme of traveling to another town crops up in my dreams. And the cars seem ambiguous as well, sometimes its just people zooming, people riding bikes, people walking, people riding horses. Anyway, I'm trying to remember my way to someone's house I hadn't visited in this unfamiliar but once known town. I'm driving along vaguely familiar with streets lined with trees, and small fields, houses, and lots of trees. A pretty place. The town seems quite culturally elite and a place where people walk the streets and seem quite cultured. I'm feeling a little out of place but realizing I am a stranger in town. I stop at signals and traffic moves at a slow pace. The car eventually melts or disappears and I begin walking and interacting with people. First I ask for directions and then I am walking and just start talking to people. The first person was a woman and we didn't click for some fuzzy reason and then the next was a woman and we walked and went into a shop of some kind, clothing? sports related? then we walked on along the sidewalk. I had to get to my destination which was a bit further. Either that gal or another then bonded with me and offered to drive me in her sportscar with no top. She was blonde. As she was driving I was describing the place I remembered and had to go to and she mentioned that it was a poor part of town or a delapidated part of town or not existing anymore and I suddenly felt as if I had made a mistake and realized I was not making logical sense in the dream. When I entered the town it was afternoon and by this time while driving, leaving the treed and beautiful part of town, the sky had darkened and we found ourselves driving on dark wet streets reflecting the moon or spaced streetlights off the wet pavement. No people were roaming or walking the streets and we suddenly realized we were in a dangerous part of town, but only a sense of caution. Then we saw, lying on the ground to the right just at ninety degrees to the sidewalk, two young men in their teens or young twenties, one of light skin and light hair slightly chubby and the other of dark skin and dark hair, side by side on their backs looking up. We saw them touch one another in a quick movement one hand on the other body in the lower abdomen region and they were startled by our sudden appearance. The car slowed, she slowed, and when the young men stood up in a defensive mode they had automatic weapons and began aiming them at us with the intent on their faces to harrass us and intimidate us. I screamed in a panic for her to turn the car around and go the other way "step on the gas" and there's no way to describe my panic and of course as in many dreams, the car shrunk, at first spurted some power, but in a moment disappeared! I was by myself now as my new friend gone. I went through a process of talking to the boys with my heart, trying to reach them with reason and passion. It would seem to work and then they were aiming their guns again and this seemed to go on several times as I was pleading for my life and pleading for their healing at the same time. Then they both put the guns in their mouths and were about to pull their triggers when I started running. I ran into an Asian woman's home which was in a dilapidated building and consisted of one room. She and her two little children immediately sensed my fear and all three of them immediately dove to the floor and assumed a curled position with their knees tucked up under them and covering their heads with their hands. Her door was locked and I joined them on the floor. And then while not knowing whether the young men had blown themselves up or chased me we waited in this state of threat. Then I woke up. Comment: I've only had one other memorable dream that relates to two young men threatening my life. I do have two sons who are in their twenties and I try to decipher the symbolism. I need time to process this one and think about it. I wonder about past lives and karma, and I wonder about what young men with guns and violent intent mean. In my other dream with young men, they were drugging me and pulling the skin and muscle off the back of my legs and I did escape from them. I know it sounds quite horrible. I was indeed panicked and horrified in the dream, but I outsmarted them and escaped. And I did finally realize they represented my sons and their lack of independence in our parental lives -- financial and emotional.

In my other dream with young men, they were drugging me and pulling the skin and muscle off the back of my legs and I did escape from them. You know, this might not be the answer that you're searching for but I do have a suggestion. I recommend that you do some research surrounding the relationship between dreams and the alien abduction phenomenon. From what I understand, people who either have or think that they've been abducted can experience post traumatic stress disorder. This may manifest itself as an unexplained anxiety or feeling of discomfort. Dreams can be the minds way of coping with mental issues like this that can be very difficult to identify for different reasons. Many times the abductee cannot mentally recall the encounter consciously but the memory exists on a much deeper level. Some say that these "beings"(abductors) may possess the ability to erase the abductee's memory of the occurrence. Others say that it's the result of a built-in natural defense mechanism will actually block the recollection of such an unpleasant memory. I just thought of what you told me about that unusual triangular shaped marking that you found on your body. There may be an unexpected correlation here? I know that it may sound far-fetched but hey, you never know? I say explore every possible avenue available to you.

I forgot to tell you something. The reason that I posted that quote from your text is because it could easily be translated as a convoluted reenactment of some sort of possible experimentation. Also, it's not unusual to have certain individuals in a dream interchanged with someone (or something) else and in a way that doesn't seem to match up reasonably. The young men in your dreams may really represent something completely different.

Yes, I hear you on ET involvement. I'm corresponding with some in-the-know ET people on the meaning of the triangle. So far it's pretty good in its implications. "The triangle is the symbol of the triad, which we are functioning within as well, in many degrees. The idea now of the triad is represented as an Orion symbol, and also by the energies you now call your planet, our planet, and the civilization around the star you call Sirius. These three energies are portions of one overall consciousness. And together, the more and more as we blend together, you will then once again become the blended manifestation of that which will be equal to what the Pleiadians still are, and have never lost, so to speak -- not that you have really lost anything. In this way, the symbol simply functions as a reminder of the choices that you made to experience limitation, the choices that you made to experience negativity. And now, as a reminder in this life, that this is the transformational life; this is the culmination of all of those cycles of limitation. This is the end of the negative cycle and the beginning of the reconnection. That is basically what it stands for; it is a mark, if you will -- if you wish to look at it in this way -- that in this life you are now a MASTER of limitation; you have done it all. You follow me?" That was from some Pleiadian channeled information. I've been told by one gal that I have been chosen to be a mothering teacher for children when the time comes. Who knows? Another insight I might offer on especially this dream is the possiblity that at this time since we all seem to be processessing so much and from what the spiritual leaders are saying, we're heading into a brand new era, a finality of the previous millennium, and thus a culmination of our reincarnation experience -- who knows? These Asian related dreams might be past lives coming up for healing. I may have been a man or woman in WWII when we fought the Japanese. This may have been a combination of experiences for that part of my soul's past. If I was killed by two young men from then, perhaps I was meant to further work out karma by being their mother in this life? Who knows? Maybe in an even earlier life I had murdered people? I don't have dreams where I'm a victimizer, though. Could be a flight of my imagination, but it could be an explanation for the dreams of others that include Asians. We are supposed to be preparing for the release of all karma, the last incarnation in this dimension and thus be prepared for the 4th dimensional vibration. Much can be done in our sleep and even multidimensional communications can take place in our sleep. IF I was abducted or visited and given a mark, I do feel quite calm and good about it. I'm not agitated nor worried. I'm curious, but not fearful. These kinds of dreams are rare for me and not so traumatic that I wake up screaming! I've had those screaming things, but not in the time period of receiving my triangular burn. I've had dreams where I exorcised people and babies! I've had dancing dreams, performing-on-a-stage dreams, and many house related dreams. I've had huge wave dreams and dreams I'm at the ocean watching the waves. I've had dreams where I was chased by soldiers. Dreams of garbage men ruling the roads and trying to take over neighborhoods. Dreams where I fly! Dreams of being saved from complete blackness by the glowing white cross of Jesus and shouting his name when I wasn't even raised in the church AT ALL! Dreams of kissing a man that far exceeds any kiss or loving sexual union I've ever known! Dreams of dancing for movie stars! Dreams of being in high school and not knowing my locker number or where I'm supposed to go and realizing I already had a college degree at the same time! Dreams where classrooms of teenagers sang to me in appreciation! Dreams of going to the bathroom in the middle of a party and feeling embarrassed! And on and on! Couldn't remember my dreams last night! Thanks, KNOWTHIS! bc

I've had dancing dreams, performing-on-a-stage dreams, and many house related dreams... ...Dreams of going to the bathroom in the middle of a party and feeling embarrassed! And on and on! I transcribed the following text from the same book that I had mentioned before. Some of it may be relevant to the types of dreams that you described above? Dancing: "In level 1 and 2 dreams, dance can represent sexual courtship, or stand as a metaphor for sexual intercourse. In level 3 dreams it often symbolizes awareness of the rhythms of life, the powers of creation and destruction (symbolized in Hindu culture by the dance of Shiva Nataraja), or the wild creative power of the imagination. It usually carries positive connotations."Houses: "Houses in dreams usually represent the dreamer, and can symbolize his or her body or the various levels of the mind. Like bodies, house have fronts and backs, windows that look out onto the world outside, doors through which food is brought, and other openings through which waste is later expelled. It was from a dream of a house that Jung formulated his theory of the collective unconsciousness. The house was unfamiliar but undoubtedly his own, after wandering its various floors he discovered a heavy door that led down to a beautiful and ancient vaulted cellar. Another staircase led to a cave, scattered with bones, pottery and skulls. He interpreted the cellar as the first layer of the unconscious, and the cave as the "world of primitive man" within himself that he termed the collective unconscious. Freud, however, interpreted Jung's dreams as a form of wish-fulfillment, and found in the image of the bones and skulls a symbol of thanatos, the death-wish, possibly toward Jung's wife.
Door: "A door opening outward may indicate a need to be more accessible to others, while a door opening inward can be an invitation to self-exploration. If a locked door proves frustrating for the dreamer, this may suggest that he or she should search for a new skill or idea to serve as a key.Unfinished house: "As the house typically represents the self, an unfinished house or one in poor repair may be pointing out to the dreamer that work is required on some aspects of mind or body."Rooms and floors: Like the mind, a house consists of different levels and compartments, all performing different functions and connected to each other by stairs and doors. In dreams, each room and floor can stand for different aspects of the personality or mind, which should be connected and integrated, but often are not. Generally, the living rooms of the house represent the conscious and preconscious, the cellars the unconscious, and the upper rooms the dreamer's spirituality and higher aspirations.Bodily functions: Excretion usually represents the dreamer's public anxiety or shame, or his or her urgent wish to express or unburden the self, whether for creative or cathartic reasons. Menstruation can carry similar connotations, and is often associated with a sudden release of creative energy. To dream of unsuccessfully searching for a toilet may indicate a conflict between the need to express oneself in public and a fear of doing so; while to dream of finding a toilet engaged indicates jealousy of another's position or creativity; while causing a toilet to overflow indicates fear about losing emotional control, or failure to discipline creative potential.I couldn't find anything specific in the onstage performance dreams area. I was wondering if these particular dreams that you have include stage fright or instead a more confident portrayal of self assurance? Either way, a large portion of your dreams seem to have implications about aspects of your social life in my opinion. Especially the one's that have you placed in a teaching kind of setting. It could be that you have a desire for a more involved social life? Or maybe your embarrasment at the party dream stems from a certain degree of fear of public situations? I've had dreams about not being able to locate a bathroom or toilet's overflowing and for me it's rooted in my poblems with social anxiety. I hope that some of this might be of some help to you in deciphering these hidden meanings?

Wow! What great information, KNOWTHIS! My stage dreams have run the gamut! In some of them I perform beautifully and others I totally forget my lines, don't know why the heck I'm on the stage, and feel totally helpless. I've never had overflowing toilets, just the sitting on a toilet in a party ones. Hehehe! Maybe it means I express things and "dump" on people in social situations! But usually I'm just going tinkle and not the #2 thang if that makes any difference! But it is embarrasing to a degree, yet I just go ahead and sit there! The people around don't seem to notice, but I'm also hoping they don't! Houses? All kinds in my dreams. One I remember was a big stucco mansion type house with curved stairways terracotta steps and a huge livingroom with big old upholstered chairs with products to sell hung on the walls. We were rich and it was a bizarre feeling. Another was an old Victorian with two stories and I was watching the house for the people who owned it when they were on a vacation. I would look out the windows and see men working on the roofs whom I KNEW were part of an evil cabal. Looking out of the upstairs bathroom window I saw men in black with hoods putting hand-held bars or wands to people's heads who were on their knees, and watching them instantly die, and then the guys in black would put them in black body bags. This was looking east. On the first floor west window, I told the woman of the house upon returning about the cabal and the secret plans of killing people that I had witnessed and the afternoon sun was streaming in that window. I told her the news with an intense emotional tone of such deep sincerity I was almost crying while we both stood behind the curtains with the sun streaming on us. She heard me. One repetive dream includes returning to our first home just 7 miles south of here where we raised the kids when they were young. Many, many of my dreams return us to this house where we lived from '79-'85 -- lots of scenarios there. They all include the children, too! Often we interact with the neighbors there and walking on the streets. Another house involves one with three levels and the basement level has many, many rooms -- it's modern, and the walls are white. Most of the rooms in the basement are bare of furnishings. The main room in this basement is furnished quite nicely, but the rooms accessed from that room are usually empty and some in the process of finishing. These dreams also involve feeling safe from tornados as they approach and we go down to the basement to hide from them. Another house I remember is an old one story with unused rooms in the back of the house that most people in the house don't want to frequent due to the fact that it's agreed that they're haunted. All those rooms are furnished in old furnishings and window coverings, more bedrooms with beds and one living area kind of room. I often walk through those rooms and although I fear something happening that might prove that they're haunted -- nothing happens to scare me. I end up changing the impression of these rooms to the others who live there with me. It's like overcoming obstacles or fears. Other house dreams include looking at houses to buy. Those are always fun for me as we walk around and think of the colors and decorating we would do to change the interior. Sometimes they are decorated in a weird sixties style with shag carpeting and odd colors on the walls and others are just a mess with irregular floors and walls in need of paint. Some are on lakes with great views and wood floors, nice, with not too much to do and we've just about moved in. Another house dream occurred after we moved in to the house and took place in the kitchen livingroom -- great room -- area, very realistic with hardwood floors and my husband was sitting at the breakfast bar. He disappeared suddenly and then a guy in a plaid shirt and jeans walked in the front door and couldn't see me! I was in shock and couldn't move from my place standing there on the floor. I at first yelled at him and tried to get his attention, but he couldn't hear me or see me. What are your house dreams like? What about flying?
