I don't seem to dream much anymore, or I don't remember , but I just woke up from an intense Donald Trump dream. In the dream myself and all but one of my sibs were sitting high up in a half empty stadium. The missing sib had died and we were grieving. It seemed we were attending Trump's funeral I turned to my missing sib who was there for a minute and said excitedly that we were going to meet Mary Trump.
I suspected Trump was faking and I watched him closely. As the first speaker began, Trump began to move his head. Before anyone could react I shouted, "Well THAT'S a surprise NOT. " The whole stadium heard me. There was silence and then people jumped out of their seats. As I again shouted something(I don't know what), people began to rush the stage and a huge group of people began to march around Trump's coffin shouting and protesting. Trump sank down to hide in his funeral coffin. My sibs and I were then sitting cross legged against a wall at the top of the stadium grieving for my brother, and reporters wanted to talk to us. We told them we were grieving and didn't want to talk. They politely turned away, but I then called, I am (my first name)_____ from Pennsylvania. The dream ended with me walking past the angry crowds and Trump and I talking as we walked off out of the stadium across a field.I knew I was going to become famous for dissenting.
After that I was shuffling out with the crowds. As everyone left they asked if we wanted clothes or not And I said no. I left with the crowd and once outside knew i was naked. My sisters were there, fully clothed. I tried to cover myself up, and remarked, looking at them, "I do need clothes"
I constantly hear of others having DT dreams. I feel this figure is a force in our collective consciousness that needs to be reckoned with. I think he is a symbol for greed, selfishness, and disconnected consciousness that is part of humanity. I wonder what he represents in your dream.
My take- empty stadiums- "rally" and protests. He has fallen out of power and the will of the people turns against him. I am the catalyst, which reminds me that all change begins with ME. Also I would definitely do that in real life. The dead sib- Covid, and then seeing him again, the angels way of saying, this isn't a prophecy, your brother is fine. Faking Death- wouldn't put it past him. Being naked after pointing out that the emperor has no clothes- feeling unprotected as a liberal progressive Dem. Also about masking and anti maskers. Without my cloth(es) I felt unprotected. ( Mask Anxiety)
Walking in the field- is from him walking with Melania on the white house lawn , wandering aimlessly, demented. Also, like Melania I am DONE with him.
Monday Aug 2 I dreamed about this delta wave again. It was about me playing the part of a caregiver to someone sick with delta. It was a woman who couldn't get care from the hospital as it was too full so they had her stay home and different people came to treat her or check on her. They had a little notebook they would all write in to document care...much like the documentation would they keep in the hospital. I looked at the notebook and it had three sections. I noticed the last section which was there was titled, "Recovery". The feeling I got was the woman was going to be ok and even though she couldn't stay in a hospital they had figured out a way to give her the medical care she needed to stay alive and recover from delta in her own house.
This morning I had a dream about delta again. It had to do with trying to prevent delta spread among young children. The main part I remember is that they had developed a plan to keep children from spreading delta to each other. in the dream it was represented as equipment that they would have the child lay inside--like a box. Inside the box the child would lay down and was treated with a gas that killed delta. In the dream they would take the child out of the box and look for small mite-like spiders (one of my dream symbols for this virus). Some of the parents wouldn't agree to the full treatment. They somehow knew how to stop the gas from being released into the box. They were concerned that the gas was also harmful to the child. Their children would come out of the box and have a few spiders crawling around. This worried the people who were trying to protect the children. The feeling I got as I was waking up was that the parents needed to allow the treatment even if it worries them...maybe this is about vaccine use becoming available for younger children but parents who are scared of the vaccines won't let them give it to their children?
@ghandigirl wow, i love that poem. Maybe you should bust out your guitar and try to put it to music?
So i had this funny dream. Some friends came over, and we were starting to get a little hungry. I am not Japanese, and have never tried to make Tempura before, but i thought it would be a good idea to just whip some up for my friends. Lol. Turns out i was really good at making Tempura. After i battered and fried all the vegetables, we started rummaging thru the fridge and pantry and frying up all kinds of things. And then i watched myself take a man's necktie, dip it in the batter, and gently immerse it into the boiling oil. After a few minutes, i pulled it out with my tongs- a fried necktie with a perfect Windsor knot, and a crispy golden crust. Voila!
@jeanne mayell Funny that, it was the first thing I thought of when I read Windsor knot.
Cheers
@jeanne-mayell lol, i hadn't thought of that!
I don't wear ties (or eat them), as they just seem like a symbol of knee-jerk conformity and toxic masculinity. Is there any other purpose for a necktie?

When my new boss brings up why I'm not in a tie every day, I'm stealing this response exactly.
