More Space Dreams

Note:
Every single one of these dreams came long before I started watching those geeky Universe shows on the Science Channel. (We didn't even receive that channel until recently). It's these dreams - which felt very vivid - that got me into astronomy in the first place.

I remember going through a period as a kid - before my teenage years - of wanting to go into outer space, but... what kid didn't?

I just thought it important to mention that these dreams were in no way influenced by television, movies, etc. Actually, the truth is the exact opposite. It's these dreams which spurred an interest in astronomy.

Catastrophe -

This dream was just so strange and felt so real. I was a female pilot, and I think my hair was in a very long braid. My hair was reddish brown I think. I was on a planet that was orange or reddish brown. There were mountains, but some of them looked strange. I saw little 'volcanoes' spewing up from the ground. Tall streams of lava or fire were just shooting straight up in these places. They were like geysers. I don't know if it was something man made underground, or lava. I can't remember for certain, but I really think it was fire. All I remember is whatever was shooting out of the ground... it looked very controlled; as if spewing out of a thin pipe that was underground.

There were no man-made structures or vegetation around here at all. It was completely barren with all these geysers spewing everywhere. (If that's what they were). They weren't huge either.

The feeling I received from this dream was that I was fighting in some kind of war, or it was an end of the world type thing. I really think the latter is what was going on. (And the 'war' feeling was just stemming from all the surrounding chaos. I don't even remember seeing any people around. If there were, I didn't really notice because I was concentrating on the task at hand). Whatever planet this was, it was dying and I was one of the last people to evacuate. Whatever I was doing there, I was doing my job. (I have no idea what that job was exactly). I seem to remember there possibly being news reporters there; some staying as long as they could to get the information out there. I don't know if they were really there, but I understood that what was happening was an event everyone knew about.

Even though there were explosions and earthquakes everywhere, I wasn't panicking or anything. I was very focused on my job and just hoping I'd get out of there in time. I remember getting into my spacecraft, which was at the base of a HUGE HUGE HUGE rusty red/orange mountain. It was like a small, one-person jet/spacecraft of some kind.

This seriously felt like a memory. I know that sounds bizarre, even to me, but I'm just saying.... that's what it felt like.



2-29-12

This is really strange, and keep in mind that things like this do not happen to me often and I am still a big old skeptic. I'm just an open-minded one.

A few days ago I discovered some gorgeous Universe/Nasa pics on Pinterest. Amongst them were photos of Mars. That same evening, just a few minutes after turning out the light to go to sleep something happened. I couldn't sleep (normal for me), so after I turned over to my right side I closed my eyes and saw a bright flash of white light.

I decided to ignore it, thinking maybe car headlights somehow found it's way to my room. (Which really never happens. I've lived here a long time, and that just doesn't happen). Anyway, I ignored it and closed my eyes again. Immediately, I had this flash/vision come out of nowhere. One second I could see my little bookshelf beside the door and after I close my eyes - right where my bookshelf is - I see that vision.

What I saw was a barren landscape with a fire in the distance. It wasn't like I saw in that dream either; geyser-like. This was a flaming fire spreading over the ground by a few feet. This vision/flash that I saw was like watching a movie on a small film screen. It was very, very, VERY VIVID. I don't think I've ever quite had a vision that clear before. The colors were so bright and clear. It lasted for 2 or 3 seconds. It might have even lasted longer, had I not opened my eyes after seeing it.



Space Rescue:



I was in outer space, enclosed inside an egg-shaped... thing. Some holding area is the best way I can describe it. It was just me inside this glass 'egg' with a pipe leading out of it. The top of this egg-shaped thing was some kind of 'ribbed' clear plastic or glass, and the bottom was solid white. It was very tiny and tight in there. One person barely fit inside. I remember thinking how it was finally so quiet. Almost too quiet. I was trying very, very hard not to panic and think about how I would die if no one picked me up or they simply forgot about me.

I knew that I was one of the last people to leave some planet. I was trying not to think about that, trying not to become scared and feel all alone. I was waiting and watching for a small spaceship to come by and pick me up. When the spaceship finally arrived, it looked like a normal, silver ufo. (Think of the ship in 'Flight of the Navigator,' only there's a window up front). The man driving the ship had red hair and a thick, short red beard. I think he had a twin or was a clone or something? I also think he wasn't very tall and was sort of stout. The spaceship wasn't too big either, but was one that people could still walk around inside.



Change of Address -



I cannot express enough how REAL and emotion-packed this dream felt!

All I recall is that I found myself in some stranger’s home. I knew I was on another planet and that the aliens there looked exactly like us here on Earth. The father of the house I was staying in led me to a room. It reminded me of an office that was never used much, but it was also once (I think) the man’s son's room.

The walls were bare, and I remember a small desk behind me with a sheet of white paper on it (like a daily planner/calendar, only it was blank). It was a very small room. To my left and next to me was a very long rack of white poster paper. (Like the rack on wheels of poster paper found in classrooms). Planets were drawn on the paper in a line, varying in size and color. I remember waiting for the man and/or his family to meet me in the room again. (I had only met the father so far).

I thought to myself that I had no choice here. I was stuck there and would have to accept it 100% right then and there. I felt so VERY DEPRESSED. Also, it was really sunny outside.



Conversation



I can't believe I'm finally writing this dream down. I had it a long time ago and it was a little disturbing.

All I recall is being in a small room of some spacecraft. The entire room was all metal. I mean EVERYTHING was metal. The walls had all this circuitry - or something - on it and literally everything was metal. The walls, the floors, everything.

I was standing inside one of these small rooms, although technically I guess it was more of a hallway I guess. It was some kind of special techy/control room in the back. Standing at the top of a small ramp... (it was metal and had these holes drilled into the sides)... I was speaking to someone, and the entire time I was disguising how troubled and a little afraid I felt. I was disturbed because I was having an everyday conversation with someone that was half human and half machine. Her head looked human, but the rest of her was like this boxy wheelchair. It sounds silly, but her face reminded me of the actress Kate Winslet. Her face and hair looked a lot like her.

And the conversation we were having was a friendly one. It really was like two friendly acquaintances just having a nice chat, but in the back of my mind I was overwhelmed. Still, I refused to freak out because...

1). This 'person' really did seem friendly and like a normal intelligent being. I didn't want to hurt their feelings by having a breakdown over their appearance.

2). I knew that I had to remain calm, to be on the safe side in unfamiliar territory. When in Rome....



Visitors -



It was a dark night and myself and an entire neighborhood/town of people were standing on this huge lawn sprawling with trees. We were all looking up at the night sky. There were lots of stars, but some lights in the sky were red and moving.

We knew they were some kind of spacecraft. No one was panicking, but instead were in awe. I wouldn’t say we weren’t frightened at all - b/c we were - but I guess no one was panicking b/c nothing bad was happening. It’s like they were observing us, as we were them.



Twins -



I only remember parts of this dream:

I was on another planet. It looked like earth’s landscape and was a pretty day. People everywhere were having picnics in this one huge park. I remember two twin males. I wasn’t sure they were nice, so I made a point not to get on their bad side. They were kind towards me, and I them, but I was still very weary. I remember one of them thinking they were funny.... but they really weren't. I think they were blondes.

Next, I remember leaving the picnic and going towards a building. There was a glass-cased enclosure there with some animals inside. I can't recall what the animals were.



Recurring Dream -



I've had this dream quite a number of times. It's pretty simple and sounds silly. I'm in a spaceship with LOTS of people and we're flying over The Magic Kingdom at Disney World. It's nighttime and we're floating closer and closer to the castle. It was a happy, exciting dream.

Duh! It's Disney World.
