||||||||
|

first grim reaper dream i can remember was a ww2 dream with people fighting, i became self aware during the dream and locked into the dream, couldn't wake up, the grim reaper flew into the dream on a broom stick and looked at me, then i woke up another grim reaper dream was me in a room with him and i had seemed to have stabbed him in the leg, like attacked him or something weird, can't remember exactly another grim reaper dream was 2 women i used to fancy, they were kind of rivals who didnt' like each other, they were in the dream as bouncing balls or something and the grim reaper turned into a bouncing ball, it was so strange. the bouncing ball had like a cartoon skull on it like the grim reaper's face. to have so many dreams about the reaper! |

have you heard of jung's red book? never mind if not you need to get a notebook with blank pages and draw the images out. write words too after. it will be frustrating as your renderings will, like... not do it justice, you know? they never do; not for anyone... but this is how you untangle it; tease out what this actually [might] mean(s). like, expanding it out onto paper and then being able to subsequently navigate around the paper, fill in details, you see how this is a nice hack to handle something that feels somewhat larger than your own head. and, this: at least this isn't dull. maybe you really would prefer all your dreams to be... hours of waiting at the laundromat with nothing to read... but only just barely above something gnarly/worrying like this. worrying, but much more interesting |

i cant draw very well but i can share my dreams on xltronic i was in the attic room of my dad's place in a dream a few days ago, i got up and saw a tv monitor thing with black and white static. the reaper held my shoulders or something. it was all very strange. i guess the tv monitor with black and white static was meant to convey something about the old days, because we use flat screens these days. it was like a security camera monitor, an old fashioned one. ive had a few dreams about the devil too in recent times, i was bumming the devil and the faces on his face were changing/morphing between different women's faces. i had another dream where the devil was bumming me. i had a dream where i was in my grandmother's house, i stood up walked to the bathroom, then looked in the mirror and saw myself with devil horns. and the weird thing was a sensation of feeling someone's arms within my body, like my soul was seperated from my body and was independent. |

if there's one thing i do know, it's dreams about houses. i have had so many dreams where... i'm in a place i live, or lived years ago, and i find some doorway i'd missed into the neighbor's or something and... ...anyways, attic, old tv, attic, static, reaper... how's your dad's health? heart attick |
||||||||

|

the attic reliably represents the storage of old things. then it's your dad's house. an old tv. the reaper. you may have your own health concerns but this reads more like it's not about you precisely. at worst i'm wrong and you'll be extra concerned about your pop for a bit. |

|
my dad's 65 but he's healthy my grandmother who lives next door to me is on palliative (end of life) care |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the attic was done up to be a bedroom, my dad sleeps up there, it was my room a long time ago, that's why i think the dream was hinting at the old days, like 12 years ago or more |

when a dream goes to the attic, it's really not about you, unless you're finding some childhood trinket in the attic or such. i feel like dreams are a fuzzy radio signal. you're getting grim reaper, death. your dad's mum also fits, as it's your _dad's_ attic? but guessing. all i can say is that dream doesn't sound like it was about you really the rest, who knows. maybe china is about to invade taiwan or something. these things are like a weather forecast; they're vague and often wrong |
||||||||

ok, so it was your room too, your dad sleeps there now. i actually go back to worrying about your dad. too bad you can't remember what was on the TV. |
||||||||

the tv had black and white static on it, like nothing was tuned in my dad's not getting younger, i am worried about him too. retirement is next year, i dont know what id do without him. |

shoot, sorry, now you've gotten me thinking about why... when dreaming... i'm in a place i live, or lived years ago, and i find some doorway i'd missed into the neighbor's or something and... once it was this giant concrete basement with loads of doors, and i went out one and it was a totally different dream after that -- and that was a totally abstract, made-up house i'd never been in, but even when it's ones i have, i'll wander through a hidden passageway and tunnel through into some other dream. that i feel like it's almost a data visualization, of sorts -- bear with me here that memory is very very deeply tied to place. makes biological sense -- if you're in a place you were attacked before, you want that memory to come flooding back should you find yourself have wandered back into it; freak out and leave. survival. also survival is navigating vast quantities of wilderness; humans designed to cover perhaps eight or nine miles a day. for that, you also need strong place memory. you need to plan your route every day... and your dreams feed into this. survival that when i have a dream that involves, say, the last place i lived, it's likely because my dream-brain has found itself into the cluster of memories i developed living there, because delving back into these old memories has somehow been discovered dream-relevant to current dream-me so seeing it as the old apartment is just kind of like, the GPU is being used to mine some cryptocurrency and you're just seeing hallucinations based on what it's accessing |

i see dreams now as messages and metaphors from the creator Joseph and Daniel were both good at interpreting dreams, this skill took them to the top leadership in Egypt and Persia of all the people in the world who ever lived, that's a lot of dreams you have over one lifetime, then combine that with all of the dreams people have ever had, that's mega detailed. NAS the rapper said sleep is the cousin of death, i'm not surprised i have dreams where i think ive died. when i die, ill probably think im still alive for a moment, out of arrogance |

it's probably dumb for me to speculate any further without a long actual vocal convo, that i am just guessing from tidbits, but ~ grandmother is your dad's mum? if it was about her directly, i doubt you'd have gotten attic. if it's your dad's mum, well, how's he doing with that? but i already am slapping myself because: no no no, you do not have anywhere near enough context to give advice here so beware of that. just trying to help. quite possibly an idiot |

yeah my dad's mother lives in the same street as me and my dad. i sleep in my grandmother's place. my dad and his girlfriend sleep in his place, then my aunt and grandmother sleep in my aunt's place. lol dreams are so universal, everyone experiences them, so we have something interesting to talk about, thanks |

so as the saying goes: dreams are not the same thing as sleep that before dreams, i figure sleep evolved because everything on this planet is synchronized with the cycle of the sun, the moon, for survival. the full moon is brighter so animals can see more so they evolve to know animals will see more and become more active during a full moon themselves; more on edge. it's a runaway feedback loop that drives more intricate syncopation around the base riddims of the cosmos. so sleep, hide away when it's too dark for you to see, when it's dangerous -- and, heck, while we're here -- brain does all sorts of maintenance. part of the problem with humans going to space is the hours of lying down for sleep changes the fluid pressure in the brain; think of it like a dishwasher going on in there at night. that's sleep. then dreams -- you're sorting all these crazy neurons out; how about give the organism a movie seat into all of this? might be useful |

last year, i looked it up, and rabbits don't hibernate. but they do sleep twice a day. they've just evolved to conk out at the best moments |

cats sleep most of day, and, what's it -- crepuscular? -- active dawn and dusk. at which point they have quit a bit of pep |

it is ever so amusing me to watch dogs dream; the way their feet twitch and they yip a bit to themselves. sometimes even wake themselves up i was into my 30s before i realized that... since dogs are colorblind, they must dream in black and white too. obvious A leads to B, just never put a moment into considering |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
sometimes i could tell when my dog was having a bad dream and wake her up. |

humans used to sleep twice a day... or, twice a night, really. there are references throughout history to someone or other's "second sleep" -- that, they went to bed, they woke up, they did some stuff, then they went back to sleep until morning. there is a lot of debate about really how natural this is. that people had tooth problems, parasites, and sleeping a whole night straight through was not as easy back then. on the flip side, this did really disappear with modernization, and there is a reasonable argument that not having electric lights forced people into bed a bit more than they needed. it's a lovely concept, really. the second sleep was typically used for personal time -- hygene, poetry, fucking, etc. kind of like shabbat. sometimes i've women up middle of night randomly and give it the thumbs up. but i side with the former lot from there; healthier to sleep it through. but if your body is fighting a whole night through? second sleep does seem legit |

i will say i always have intense dreams when i wake up, stay awake for 30 minutes or an hour, then go back to sleep. like, for a moment, both sauces are going |

there's a few ppl on yt who, through a lot of conditioning and buzzer tech, talk to their pets. it's all done via one-paw-press technology. plus months of practice, eventually there's video of dog waking up and hooman asking him about his dreams, and the dog is like "other dog" "bone", "my bone". it's like, dog, we get it |

everything evolves around sunrise and sunset. the rabbits sleep twice because they're chased by both the dogs and the cats; the cats sleep often because they're chased by the dogs and dogs go to sleep at dusk. but everyone gets up at sunrise together. unless you're in nocturnal kru, then there's a whole other... syncopated vibe |

dogs are very eager mirrors. i think you'll find the dogs that shock you with their word clever are the dogs whose owners actually talk _to_ them. i mean, asking a yellow lab, "would you like dinner?" produces and obvious reaction, and okay, you understand that much. but you can reach a point where... my mom would tell the dog, "go get epics up" and the dog would run upstairs and start tugging on my bedsheets. absolutely no one taught the dog a damn thing in this regard. one day mom just told the dog to do it out of frustration, and it worked, so she kept telling the dog to wake me up. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
to clarify: my mom was not frustrated with me, she was frustrated with the dog. who was sassing her, i'm bored, i'm bored, let's do something, as she's trying to sort out breakfast or whatever. and it was kind of like "oh HELL i have enough to do -- if you want to do something, go wake up epics" and dog was all ON IT |

dogs dreaming of bones how's that for an album title? |

epic do you have a dog now? i wonder which dog would be suitable for you? |

no, sadly, lease does not allow it. hell, none of 'em ever have said "ok dog" -- it's more like "you can have a cat or small pet, MAYBE" as i am priced out of home ownership i am priced out of dog, really. i'm probably too unreliable on my own anyways without some backup that was a yellow lab. had labs growing up. living with people, been able to borrow peoples' dogs. generally, i can't abide small dogs; short-haired terriers are alright there, though. a belgian malinois; biggest teef... biggest jaw... i've ever seen on a dog. i was terrified of him at first, then, pat pat, hop up on the couch? and the dog would literally violently attack anyone he didn't know but once he knew you he was just a normal dog. but probably my favorite was a mix of husky and german shepherd. i know huskies are difficult. but they were just the most hilariously entertaining dogs i've also considered getting a rabbit or something. just knowing it will be a stupid idiot of a pet, but also very easy to deal with |
