The Oracle

this one is a bit all over the place. i remember it but its very hard to explain.

we (me and turk) were going on a journey somewhere, with lots of other couples. almost like an evacuation, but without the urgency. and we had to go on this big plane. we all sat in a kind of departure lounge and listened to a woman talking about the flight and then couple by couple we were let in and shown to a big room on the plane that had lots pf piles of stuff. we picked up the one with our name and took our seats.

i don't think this bit happened on the plane.... we were shown to a hospital. but not the nice and clean white sheet kind of hospital, it was pretty much military in style with green sheets. its at this point that i remember that i'm pregnant and i've been shown to the hospital to give birth. there is this lovely lady next to me and we chat and she has her baby, and its a gorgeous little girl. then i have my baby. its a bit weird cos i don't remember a labour in the dream, or really any pain, and it was a very quick thing. i didn't see the actual birth in my dream. but i remember being back in bed next to that lovely woman with this beautiful baby boy with the biggest dimples! (dimples are a big thing in my family) this was the most vivid part of the dream, lying there with turk next to me, talking to this woman and her hubby holding this beautiful baby with that fantastically brilliant feeling you have when you've just had a baby for the first time. it was such a great feeling.

Wow, brilliant.

You're moving into a next phase and the chances are that it will be the one to culminate in happiness and joy for you and your family.

Also have you had any incling that you might be pregnant? I know you were saying that you're getting broody but have you been doing anything towards it I wonder.

hmmmm, i wish! i'm not pregnant, did a test the other day, and it was negative.
but yay for the new phase!

Aw what a shame. *hugs*

I'm sure you'll keep trying tho.

oooooook, this was a bit weird even for me. i was part of a clan type thingy, basically the leader/sorceress. and we (a group of about 10 or so) had to go on an important mission to find something. as we left, trotting along in ranks of two, another clan was running past. some of my clan wanted to kick the snot out of them but i said no. i told them they were a strong clan who could run 20 miles a day with barely a rest. they were running infront of us and we went through a kind of alley out into he entrance of a forest (think sherwood forest, not amazon) and they made their own kind of gauntlet for us to go through. so we carried on running through them and each one of us was kind of challenged by one of them (we were evenly matched in numbers so the counterpart basically did the challenging by making a swing that could be easily blocked with their sword.). in my instructions once challenged we offered our swords to them, and they threw them down (as a kind of 'we're better than you' kinda thing). my counterpart was obviously the leader and he was at the very end. i offered him my sword which had what looked like a antler hilt. when he threw it down, the hilt caught my arm. he didn't mean for it too though and we continued as though nothing happened.
as we waited slightly apart from the other clan for the rest of us to come through, one who looked alot like liam neeson got through and there was a spirit (brother, i think) who was next to him, and although only i could see him, everyone knew he was there. and he kinda shone green. i told this neeson look-a-like that 'he was very pleased you got through ok', but he was having none of it and was a bit miffed that his sword and been rejected. in his words 'a sword like that cannot be rejected by anyone'. so he went up behind the uy who had challenged him and ran him through. as you can imagine that kinda annoyed the rest of this blokes clan and they se out to slaughter us. so we split up and legged it. the leader came after me and while i was keeping a good distance infront of him, i knew he would soon catch up. then he threw his sword at me and it whizzed through the air and span, but not a vertical spin, a horizontal spin. i ducked at the last second and saw the leader very nearly on top of me. and i saw the regret in his eyes. so i cast a spell to reverse time long enough to correct neeson look-a-likes mistake.
so this time as neeson came through the gauntlet i froze time and as he opened his mouth to speak told him 'don't you dare. your actions will lead to the ruin of us all. trust me, i've lived it'. and he backed down.
i didn't bear the leader of the other clan any ill will so i went up to him and read his mind to make sure he didn't plan to kill us anyway.
and he was thinking i would make a fine queen by his side. and if my clan rejected the offer, he would just kill them and take me anyway. and i noticed a protection talisman round his neck. i placed my hand over it and whispered to him 'this is a good protection talisman, but not enough to protect you from me.' and while my hand was over it i gave it a power boost. when i took my hand away there was now a metal feather on the necklace too. and i noticed the freeze spell hadn't worked completely on him as i just knew he could hear me and feel my touch.
i went back to my men and said we would leave before they unfroze to avoid any bloodshed. so i cast a spell to put us 20 miles (one day) ahead of them. and i knew they would catch us up eventually and that i would probably end up marrying the leader (there was that kind of tension between us), but it would have to wait because we had a mission to complete.

then i was rudely awoken by princess the cats tail in my face.

this one isn't for me. yet again rhiannon had a nightmare. she seems to go through phases of having them most nights, then barely any at all.
but when i asked her what her dream was about her exact words were 'i fell into the sea and then i was gone.' i asked her where she went and she said 'nowhere'. i looked up drowning on an online dream dictionary and it said that drowning to death and it said it symbolises an emotional rebirth. rhiannons 4 years old. and for some reason, my little girl dreaming of drowning to death has really disturbed me.
any insight you can offer?

Rhiannons dream immediately said 'memory' to me.

At 4yrs old emotions aren't developed the same way as an adults are so I would personally reject the 'text book' reading anyway. Although it could be that she is having to deal with some fairly heavy emotions atm that she really isn't ready for. Water is nearly always tied up with emotion and drowning in it suggests overbearing emotions; usually negative ones too I'm afraid. The fact that its' the sea and not the bath tub or swimming pool suggests to me that the dream itself has awoken a past life memory not necessarily a death scene but certainly a traumatic moment.

I would reccomend checking yourselves when discussions get heated and temper fray. Also ensure that she knows that whatevers going on at home that feels bad or wrong, that it's not her fault.

ok, this is really muddled, so i'm gonna type it as it comes to me.

i was with my brother and mum at this dog pound, only no one was there, no dogs or people except us. there was a distinctly bad feeling between me and them. i went through a door, and i had this memory of them locking me in there before. so when they followed through tthe door, i knew they were going to try it again. so as soon as they were clear of the door i got back through and locked it and shouted 'like i'd let you do that again'. then it occured to me they could get out the back and as i ran away they came round, laughed and drove off. when i say running away i don't mean scared running, just a kind of trot. i knew they would drive off and i felt kind of free for it.
i walked into the town. for some reason i think it was cambridge (i have never been to cambridge and have no idea what it looks like). i went into this warehouse thing, like a really big shop with lots of engine-y bits and stuff. and i was there with (and this is weird) paul snr and paul jnr from american chopper. and i helped them pick out some things to make a chopper with, things for inspiration and stuff. and then the owners came in and said they were calling the police. i didn't realise that we weren't supposed to be there. paul snr said they wanted to make a chopper for their company and talked them round and we talked about what it would look like. after that i went to find somewhere to live. i remember thinking i needed to find a flat and was thinking about curtains. and while i was walking through a....i don't know how to describe it....there was a big shop like a sainsburys or something and some greeny tree-y bits around it with a winding tarmac path going through it towards a school of some kind. but i'll get back to that bit. while i was walking through the greeny bit on the path i had a small child with me. but as i approached the school i don't think the child was with me anymore. and i saw a man. i tempted to say it was one of my old teachers and it kinda felt like him, but a bit different. where (in real life) he was fun and cheeky and a right old laugh, in the dream he was....well he looked and felt responsible, which he never did in real life. and we spoke but i don't remember what about. and i left him and went to the school. and it felt so familiar, and it felt kinda warm (not the physical kind of warm but that kind of warm when you see something you know really well). but the school doesn't look like any school i've been to. and it was kind of brown. like sepia but not so fuzzy. and i knew i was going there for a reason.

but because i am in an immense amount of pain and was tossing and turning all night thats where it ends.

my daughter rhiannon isn't well at the moment so for half the night she slept in my bed with me and then half way though the night she woke up and announced she wanted to sleep with her daddy in the front room. so the first dream is before she woke me up, and the second is from after.

right, i was at this castle. but not your typical medieval kind of castle. it was squareish and had a small flight of stairs on each side (that was facing the sea), and it was like it was cut out of rock because there was still rough rock either side of the stairs. but it wasn't against a cliff, it was free standing.
and as previously mentioned it was next to the sea, but there were some bits on top of this huge cliff. and the water would crash up against the stairs, but only a few inches of water. so you had to leg it to get up the stairs into the castle if you didn't want to get wet. now the rest of the island i was on was exactly like this:
http://www.kerrypoet.utvinternet.com/mo ... ellig.html
and i mean pretty much exactly. i had never seen any photos of this place before, and i'd only heard it mentioned on time team.
one additional detail of the scenery was there was one bee-hive hut out on a tiny little island of sand about 20/40 meters away from the castle. but the water between it and the castle was only about a foot.

and i don't think there was any particular grand theme to the dream. but me and a few others lived there. and we were standing beneath a shelter looking out at this little island hut and we were trying to decide who would 'brave the waters' to get this special paper, like a scroll or parchment or something, but it was sacred.

then wanny woke me up.

when i fell back asleep it fell the same but i was on a ship somewhere in the sea. and another ship was sinking and we were trying to get everyone off safely. i remember watching a screen and seeing the ship sink and it was like a modern battle ship. one end went down first so the tip was the last to disappear.
and when it had gone completely under i asked if everyone was off ok and someone said yes, but i could tell they were lying. so i did a check and martin (the one that really upset me) was stuck in an escape tube. and everyone kept telling me to leave him but i wouldn't and told them what kind of person would i be if i jus left someone to die when i knew i could save them?
so i got suited up and two other people came with me to save him. and the last thing i remember before i woke up was knowing i was running out of time to get to him, but we couldn't find a way to get to the escape tube.

oh wait, something happened before the ship thing. i was at this shop. with my mum dad and sister. they had picked me up from some kind of boarding school. and we had to dress up but they hated everything i had. then i pulled out this dark red/burgandy dress that was really heavy cos it was beaded and they said it was perfect. but i said i would wear my own shoes and they were mettler big boots (which i have to say looked kinda cool). and the shop was kind of like melinda gordons shop in the ghost whisperer. and outside we went down a buffet table and i put a few things on my plate and then sam (my sister) said something to me like 'you better not do that again, your mine now'. and i remember wondering what she meant and that it sounded kinda mean but i didn't know if it was meant that way or if it was meant to be a joke.

then it went to the ship.

here is a pic i drew of the entrance to the castle and the slightly offshore bee-hive hut, but you can't really see the detail in that bit.

ok, i had another dream with a door that wouldn't lock. i was supervising a group of rowdy kids (well teenagers) and we were staying in a castle. a really nice one, in the middle of a town centre. i tried everything i could think of to get it to close and stay closed, but nothing worked. i got quite scared that anyone could come in during the night.
