Here's one of my more interesting ones:
In this dream I was in some sort of complex, like a warped version of my college. Ryan (my BF at the time) was with me, and many people were there. Most of the people had special powers, like super heros. There was a great evil that had to be defeated, but it was so powerful that all of the people with super powers didn’t even try to think of a way to defeat it because they knew they could not. Yet, I felt that God had endowed me with the power to do it, that He was pushing me forward to defeat this evil. I knew that no one would believe me, and would probably try to stop me if they knew what I was up to. I remember looking at a message board of all the superheros writing about how they had no idea what to do…they were scared, worried. I felt like alleviating their fears, simply putting down a message that said “I’m taking care of it” but I knew for two reasons that I could not. One: because they may try to stop me when I had to do it, and two: because I knew no one was supposed to know that I was the one…as it says in the Bible, those who let the whole world know of the good they do surely receive their reward here. The Bible tells us to do good things anonymously so that when we do them, we do not do them for the glory you would receive from men, but for the glory of God in Heaven. So I did not. I was with Ryan most of the time, and he knew of my burden. He was a part of God’s plan to destroy the evil somehow, but I am not sure which part he played. He stayed with me most of the time during my travels. I remember getting lost on the highway when I was alone, but I don’t remember where that was in the dream. I was going the wrong way on the highway so I pulled over into this driveway that went into a big field with golden grass. There were these people, country people who were mocking me, but I ignored them and pressed on.
When I arrived at the complex that I had to be at, Ryan was with me again. I believe that the evil man was underground, and above ground was this building that was much like a long hallway, that was open on each side. A storm was coming, and so I tried to get people to get to the side of the hallway so that when the wind came down the hallway it would not blow them away. There was this little girl who would not listen to me, and no matter how I yelled at her to get over here she would not. I was getting very frustrated and angry. Ryan was calm the whole time, and eventually the girl came of her own volition, sitting next to me (I think somehow Ryan knew that she would, which would be the reason he was calm perhaps). I was finally at rest because I knew she was safe.
After that Ryan and I came to this wall, and on the wall were these necklaces. Somehow I knew that one of these necklaces would help me in my quest to destroy the evil, it would help give me more power or something. The one I picked was on a black cord, it was a pendant carved out of diamond, or some sort of clear jewel. It was a rather large faceted teardrop shape, and the tip curved over and formed the loop that it hung on. Somehow, having the necklace gave me peace that God was with me, and more determination to do what I must. Ryan and I sat at the hallway, both of us fully knowing that I had to go and do this alone, and that though the evil would without a doubt be vanquished that I may not survive. Somehow in this dream I felt our bond was deeper that it really is now (I think he represented my soulmate in the dream rather than him literally) We kissed, Then I got up, and let my mind empty to get ready to do what I had to. Ryan said not to be resigned about my fate, but that I must seize it. I nodded, and began going with confidence and resolve down into the evil’s lair.
I was dressed in this long flowing golden dress, and had two odd weapons and a knife tucked away. When I came into the room there were two men, one was the great evil, the other his right hand man. The great evil was a heavyset man in his thirties or forties, but I knew better than to underestimate his fighting abilities. His right hand man was thinner, and I knew nearly as dangerous. At first I came to see if I could hide my intentions and then attack, but I could not, they found me out nearly right away. Words were said that I do not remember, and they attacked. I had the two unlikely weapons in my hands and was fighting them both at the same time. I could sense what was going on around me, like while I was defending myself from the great evil, his right hand man came up from behind me and though I did not see him, I felt him, and I was able to block in just the right way. I was fighting them both, not winning or losing, but keeping up very well. Then the great evil and I broke away from his assistant, who fell back and simply watched. I think the great evil got me pinned, and suddenly was making sexual advances on me. Though he wasn’t attractive, he seemed to have some sort of persuasion of mind, and he tried turning me on, drawing me in. I felt the effects, yet kept Ryan in my mind, and my goal. I did not forget for a second those things, and allowed him to think that I was giving in, so I embraced him and waited for the right moment of distraction and then stabbed him in the back, straight through the heart. I do not remember what came of the right hand man (he saw the knife in my hand, and everything but made no move to stop me) perhaps he too was defeated when I defeated the great evil.
I remember coming back to the complex and everyone was cheering and celebrating because the evil was gone. I knew that I still could not tell them that I was responsible for it, but I was happy because everyone else was. Now that the evil was gone, my reward was simply the happiness of the people.
Talk about odd, huh? Often when I remember my dreams I remember them in a lot of detail and they have a story-like aspect to the dream...there's all sorts of symbolism here but I haven't tried to dissect this one :mno:
