Dreams from the Aether

Well if the site is getting shut down today this may be my last post, see you on the new site!

I am with Mum in a large hall, In front of us is some sort of Pyramid with an entrance on a stone platform in front of it. The walls and ceiling of the hall are green and black, the floor is wood. There are a number of people here. Some of them are up on the platform, in the center at a stone pulpit is a man dressed in robes and with a staff. There’s a man on a tall chair in front of the pulpit like a director with some of those umbrella lights nearby him. Some sort of ritual is going on. On the ends of the platform are these lenses or mirrors set on metal poles. I realize we have to use them to reflect light onto a point in the center. Me and Mum go up to the one on the right end of the platform and try to get it t work. It takes a couple of attempts, some of the people look at us in the first attempt but then they don’t appear to care. We get it right. I am now on the floor of the hall running with everyone else trying to escape from the Mummy robots from Doctor Who: Pyramids of Mars which have been unleashed from the pyramids. Got to make sure they don’t catch me or crush me. I look for my mother, she gets away from one of the robots. We flee.

Here’s a picture of the robots:

I am reading through some black and white style newspaper strip about the opening of the Maltese Falcon. A cleaner in a hotel finds a suitcase with a message taking about how it has the Falcon inside and many people want to get it, indeed many people are watching this hotel and now she has been wrapped up in it. A man with a gun comes in, she gives up the suitcase and is shot. I go over the strip a few times before getting up and leaving.

I am sat in the dining room at the table eating. My Younger brother is sat next to me and a blonde haired woman is sat diagonally across from me. We are eating dinner. It includes vegetables as well as tortilla chips and sauce. The woman finishes dinner first and my brother follows. I feel upset that I ate too slowly and I still have much of my dinner left to eat.

Well since the forum here is currently much easier to use than the one on the new site, I’ll keep posting here for the foreseeable future:

I am lying on my old bed. Nearby my brother is lying in his bd. It is nighttime, we both have out reading lights on. I am lie down then get up and look around. I am feeling scared. I think about some analog horror I heard about. I remind myself that it was fictional and not even that good. I’m still scared and I see images of me being in a dark room talking to someone.

I am walking in a group through an urban area, it is daytime. There are people walking around as well as cars on the streets. We walk across to the corner of a building. A young man dressed in a long black coat goes over to the corner, there is a small room there, large enough to lie in with some windows on the side, a young woman gets out. She is his girlfriend who has been waiting for us. We carry on. I walk off to get something, then I look around and panic a bit because I do not know how I can get home. I’ve been in this area many times before and walked home, but not from this exact spot. I need to get back to where I was then I can figure out how to walk home.

Amen Brother!

I really like the ease of access of the videos on the new site, but the forum there is sub par, not as easy to use as this one, nor as easy to read. The load time for pages is about 3-4 seconds which is kind of a bummer too. Would be cool if the found a way to link this forum to the new site or integrate it.

I do not remember any dreams.

Maybe something about me trying to do breathing through the heel. A Daoist breathing practice I had been reading about that evening.

I am running around in a back garden to my home. It is bigger than the one that exists in real life, surrounded by high fences. One side is bordered by a neighboring house by the other a lower back alley between the house. Family members are here including my Mum who mentions that there is a recent threat of Doppelgangers. In the back-alley trench is a Doppelganger of someone we know. She is talking to a female Police Officer. She demands to enter the garden. Of course if she was who she claim to be she would already be in our home. But we know she is a doppelganger.

I am outside in a field it is daytime. I am also indoors sat at a TV with a games console. I see 6 images showing the horror games I have plaid. I am talking about them to someone. I am now in the middle of a open field, bordered by trees. Beyond which are houses, the light is dim, it is nighttime or close to nighttime. Near me is a laptop, I am seeing images and hearing audio. It is talking about the Scottish Philosopher John MacMurray and how in the 1950s he worked on developing a science to uncover and study doppelgangers.

I am walking outside at night as part of a group of young people. I am not a member of the group, we are just coincidentally walking together. I hope they don’t notice and turn hostile. . We turn onto another road, I want to get a drink from the convenience store but it is closed, the shutters are pulled down. I walk away from the group up further and see to my right an open takeaway, 2 staff members are inside dressed in red uniforms. One of them says something that might be them telling me that they are closing. I wonder if I could go to the premier on the height, though it is further away. I am indoors at home (which isn’t like my home in waking life), I enter a door to my left into a curved white room (white carpet, white walls and white ceiling). It curves away to my right. Near the door is a white bookshelf, I look in and find a novelization of the film moon. I take it out. A red haired young woman speaks to me from the doorway. I ask if she has seen moon, she replies that she has. She then tells me that she hasn’t seen me much and having interacted with my brother a lot wants to get to know me more.

I am with others, we travel between realms on some sort of ghostly looking train. Some sort of Pokémon Esque battles. We or someone else gets a monster that looks like a purple ball with 6 spindly legs, we present it with a few legless balls themes around the 4 elements and it eats all of them to gain their elemental powers. I do not see the eating, I am disturbed by it though.

I am outside in a town square, the floor is paved with stones. It is daytime. I see a plaque on a stone block mentioning Payasi the mythical materialist king. I see on a nearby wooden pole (a telephone pole?) another small plaque listing Payasi alongside other ancient Indian teachers. Most of whom I do not recognize. Inspecting it I do see a name I take to refer to the Buddha as well as Mahivira the founder of Jainism though it takes me several tries to find them. I see a woman nearby at a table with second hand looking books on them about Payasi including one detailing what people would have probably eaten during the ancient time he would’ve lived in. I am now inside a building wandering around a room with white walls and a white ceiling. A grey carpet and chairs and tables arranged about like a classroom. The woman and the table of books is here as well. I look at the books a bit then wander away. I meet my Dad and another older man, we all waiting for something going on in a nearby darkened room to finish. I go out a door and pace up and down outside it. I go back inside. I enter a hall used for events I see a table with my family sat around it eating Bread and Soup. I join them, someone asks another man (a non family member sat here as well) why he waited for us as he could have eaten earlier.

I am in my bedroom, I have just woken up, it is the morning. I walk to the window and look through it. In front of my home I see a man in a black coat riding a bike. He read wheel has come off and is just stood stationary as the man slowly continues his way. I hope he will realize what has happened. He looks back and stops, I am glad.

I am walking outside down a street near my home, past tall buildings. I know I am near my home. I go to the right but instead of walking up my home street I am walking down one nearby. It is made of tall buildings like a city centre, people are walking around including a number of young students I think, they are all going home. I walk up, approaching a tram station. I go to the left, making sure no trams are nearby. I cross the tracks and go forward into another street. Similar to the last one. This is also not my home street.

I know I had other dreams but I cannot recall anything more than that.

I am sat at my computer. I am watching a video of a remastered version of a Kirby game. A 2d platformer. It is in some sort of retro pixelated style. At one point you fight a clown boss. I go to play it. It opens a non-full screen window on my desktop. There are several options on the main menu. Some of which apparently don’t have you playing as kirby, one has you playing as a female character. Another seems to just be the boss fight with the clown. I start a game and begin playing. The window starts shaking around chaotically, this annoys me and I alt f4 out of the game.

I am outside in the front garden. It is nightime but I can see very well. The garden by the drive has been lifted up like a bedsheet, underneath I see various old objects apparently dumped there. I see the leg of a teddy bear and I think that it is one of mine. SI wander around some more. I see someone with dark hair come and pull from the garden a baby goat, he leaves. I wonder where the mother is, maybe she is still under there.

I am watching scenes of Michael Keaton batman in the batmobile flying with a glider attached to it. He is fighting general Zod. I am watching a scene on a bridge, I expect Wonder Woman to show up and she does. Her showing up was one of the few good bits of the Batman V Superman movie.

I am outside. It is daytime. I approach my Dad. He greets me as “my brother in the Heavens” then says something (maybe something about finishing or like we can finally leave) then I wake up.

Unfortunately I do not remember my other dreams as I did not note them down when I woke up.

I am playing Okami. Once again I am attempting the part am at where I have to race a flying piece of paper through various rooms. Having to use the dash move to win. I get to the second one where you have to move across platforms above a pit of spikes and I decide to go before triggering the race to see what path I can take. I end up stepping on a button that causes the platforms to rearrange causing a solid path to the exit. Some platforms have treadmills on them going opposite to the direction I want to go or even sideways into the pit. But I make it to the exit.

Here’s a video playing through the sequence (I actually have yet to beat it, I need to get back to playing it :):

I am walking home at night. It is raining a bit. I am nearing a corner near my home. Turn left, as I do so I see Wallace from Wallace & Gromit posing in the rain like in the Right back at you Buckaroo meme. I go faster, I know another Wallace is behind me, following me. I get near home. I wake up and get nervous about someone breaking into my home. (now realise I could have used it as an opportunity to practice senses induced lucid dreaming or another technique)

I am stood at the entrance to a hall. Like one in a school, a stage is at the opposite end. I am looking at some sort of performance and see images in my head going along with it. Of a jet ski/water skiing athlete wo died as a result of headaches he got after hitting the water too hard while jet skiing. I am now by the stage and I go up on it, I think about what they can do for the show and I come up with the idea of pretending to be riding a boat, by setting up a barrier so they cannot see our legs. I go down some stairs of stage and wonder if someone with comically large pants will come one. Other people start to come onto the stage.

I am in a bookshop, there are people round. I am looking for science-fiction, fantasy and self-help books specifically. I walk around and see a section labelled Harry Potter Fanfiction in a handwritten piece of paper Sellotaped to the shelf. There are lot of hardback books her some of rather big size. I see one called James Potter by an Ian Deathcard. I think I have heard of this one. I walk around that shelf to the other aisle to continue looking. I am now in another bookstore, this one is much larger and the walls and ceiling are dark, it looks a lot like we are in a dark warehouse. I walk up and down a couple of aisles of books, I go around to another aisle but all I see is a large section of clothes. This apparently isn’t just a bookstore. I am now in a smaller room, it may be my bedroom. Well lit, blue carpet shelves of books down the middle and at either side. I look around and find myself looking at a shelf dedicated to manga.

I am outside, I go into a cable car to make my way back to where I was. I pull a witch and go flying around this round outdoor area I am in, past wooden buildings. I apparently overshoot and try to go back but keep overshooting. I am nervous I will get caught, I shouldn’t have done this. I find another lever that allows me to go more slowly and I hope I can use it to get back and leave before someone sees me.

I’ve been using the Elsewhere dream app (apple/google) which has a lot of interpretation features. Free but paid a lot better. Worth a view given how detailed and extensive your dreams are.

I am outside looking at a screen set up on a stone wall by some pavement. It is displaying the storefront for the Dreams Video Game. I remember, it’s a game where you make games or animations ad put them up for other people to play or watch. Most of the images on the storefront are white. Most of the games are gone. A man near me talks to me as I pick up a newspaper with a headline about it. He explains that a recent law passed means that anything containing copyrighted material has to be taken down and that means most of the stuff in dreams has had to go. I think this is stupid and I think that it will mean the end of the game. I a now in one of the largest games on the platform which is still going called Islands. It initially appears to be a Minecraft clone. With a Pickaxe appearing in my POV and removing blocks. Other players appear and then I see texts calling this stage ‘mansions’, people all over are building grand houses. I am walking towards a large circular building at night, a tower with a clock at the top. People re queuing to get in it. I go inside, he bottom floor is restaurant with a bar. I walk through and g upstairs, I end up in a upper floor more sparsely decorated and seems to be themed after the Suicide Squad from DC Comics with posters and bookshelves of the comics. I try to go upstairs but I am blocked, I go back down to wait for the opportunity to go up further again. I am now seeing the outside, the clockface which is shaped as a giant cartoon face detaches from the tower and falls to the ground . I am now stood in front of it. I carry on. I am now walking across a sandy tropical island during the day. This is the second of the islands. I reach the other side of it, a narrator in my head notes the noise coming from a set of bagpipes in the water. I am seeing from the third person someone playing the island and getting in a plane to fly around. Remarking that the flying simulation in it is awful. I am now with someone else in the mansions section. He wants to build a place. We go underground he creates a large bell shaped structure to be the start of his mansion. He molds part of it in the form of a closed eye then he makes it open, I wonder if he can learn to make it open and close.

By The way these are the main videos I know Dreams from. I never played it myself and support was apparently discontinued in 2023:

I am outside with family members on holiday. I am in an area of rocks and a small stream, we go on the stream to the corner by a rock. I look at the wall and appear to see inside it. Like I’m glitching through it. I see a cave inside. I tell the people with me that I say a cave through chinks in the all, the inside of this rock is hollow. I wonder what will be inside. We go on the land on the other side of the stream by the rock. We walk up. We meet a staff member and talk to her about the cave, she explains how inside the rock was a shrine to Aphrodite. I go to a door in the rock and see a small children’s play area inside The wall has a square stone with an image of Aphrodite and some writing on it. I assume that’s the shrine but when I look closer I see the writing is in English. So I assume it’s a recreation, I realise the cave is behind the wall and it hasn’t been explored. I say this to the people with me. I get excited as I walk way up the slope away from the stream. What may be in there, maybe it will become another tourist spot and named after me. My one piece of fame that will potentially outlast my death. I turn and go to go up some stairs.

I am outside, alone, I need to find my family again. I am at a entrance area with a long queuing space. There are hardly any people though so I skip through by going under the barriers, I see 2 young goth women walking through the area normally and I feel embarrassed. So I walk through normally. I walk through the entrance area thinking angry thoughts. I walk up the path. I find the building where my family are, a tavern looking building called The Buttered Onion. I enter the lower floor. I see my family sat at a table in a stone room, I see them through a gap in one of he walls, I go up to it to see if I can find a way through. I am unable to, I see some small lumps sticking out of the wall and think they are stairs down into this room. I am surprised. I end up lying down somewhere and I hear someone remark that I am asleep on the stairs. Family members come to wake me up.

I am walking around the tiered benches surrounding a small pool, people are coming in for a show. I see were I am sitting with family and friends. It is a set of lower benches at the one end of the pool. They are empty apart from one young girl. I feel bad for her having to keep all these seats herself and I am nervous we might lose them. I go down to the one at the edge and sit down. I see a barrier set up above the pool separating a small bit at this end from the rest. I see a small girl paddling at tis end. A woman appears on the water and asks for all children in the pool to be removed. The girl gets out, I see a woman pulling another one from the main part of the pool.

I am in a small hut 3 Asian people; 2 men and a woman are near me. The woman is giving me different swords to try. I am given one that is curved. I spend a few moments to figure out which way I hold it by seeing which side is blunter. I try to do some basic swings, but I struggle at the ones going up from left to right or right to left. Outside is a circular area surrounded by a wall looking at bit like an arena. An announcement tells us to go back to our tents. I give them bac the sword and go back to a white tent nearby. My younger brother is there as well as a bald man. I sit down and note how sparsely decorated the British tent is. An announcement tells us it is lunch time. We go to the opposite corner to get lunch, a buffet is set up on a nearby tale and opposite it is a booth where we can order fast food.
