I had quite a powerful dream this morning before waking up, even to the extend that I spent about twenty minutes lying awake after waking up, just going over the scenes in the dream. The description of that dream is as follows:
›I am somewhere in familiar surroundings and decide to go for a walk outside with some non descript friends. Walking along I look up and see tall dark buildings that look like office towers, but that have no windows or cladding. Their frames are open to the elements and look like under construction in their open appearance, except that they are finished structures black and appear deserted.
I am fascinated by this scene of that many dark skeleton type high buildings. An apocalyptic sensation holds my attention and I want to take some pictures. As we walk on the view of the apocalyptic towers becomes hidden and I seen that at the ground level of these towers there is quite a bit of activity. People are rushing in and out of offices, down hall ways, but I feel totally ignored. I can’t quite believe all this activity, so I double check it and it is going on indeed with the emphasis on business.
I now go outside and try to get a photo view of the empty towers, but I can only see the top of one, too far away and close up I only get insane details of numbers relating to my photo as I try to take a shot, so I let it go.
The dream scene now changes. I am close to where I was before, but out in the open now and see large frames - like the empty buildings - now laying on the ground like giant caterpillars. There is two of them and they start to move, passing by in front of me from left to right. They move down the slope from the high ground where they are and I am. They seek access to water, the sea possibly and move down for that reason. I remain on the high ground, but my former company is gone, though I do not feel deserted.
The first crawler reaches the low point at the water edge, but the one behind is has to back up to realign itself for a second try. As it withdraws far to my left, I advance into its former path. It will pass high over me since I am safe in a dip, but I am cautious and watch out.
As it moves to the right and the water again, as I expected, the very end of this crawler tail comes quite close to me almost touching me. However, as it does come close like that, I discover it is consists of used and old mattress like cushions and not steel like frame. They would not hurt me and they do not even touch me as they move on down. I wake up.‹
Now what to make of such a vivid dream and its strange imagery? Good question, but difficult to answer. One thought struck me almost right away as I lay awake going over the dream as mentioned. It was, that the empty structures made me recall the ‘empty edifice’ dream of about half a year ago. And, I thought that was an empty church without people around, now I have empty business structures, with people rushing to get out?
I am left with a query and it is this: ‘Will the oil business leave from here and go down to the coast?’ Or, do these two dreams belong together showing me the end of traditional religious values and now the end of capitalistic ones? In both cases the structures of tradition have lost their functionality.
Or do these two dreams belong together showing me the end of traditional religious values and now the end of capitalistic ones?
As usual the person that knows is Who! And with this note of wisdom and prophesy I’ll close for the day.
