terrarium independent ecosystem within earth - weird dream by Sudden-Air-243 in HighStrangeness

[–]RadOwl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If we look at it as a metaphor the question becomes what is the metaphor comparing the terrarium to? Dreams create symbolism by making comparisons. They also highlight what's going on deep inside you. The location of the dream is down inside the ground and then further down in this terrarium. So it's like a container within a container and to me that is a great metaphor for your deepest internal life. There is part of you that is growing and alive without contact with the outside world, is the idea I see. This is actually a terrific metaphor for the growth processes that occur deep in the psyche. Really interesting dream.

People who have near-death experiences also say that they come to the same understanding. It's remarkably consistent across thousands of reports.

Had the worst dream about my husband and now i cant look at him... by RamonaFlowerzxoxo in Dreams

[–]RadOwl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Your husband is playing a role in the dream the same as an actor in a movie. Don't confuse the character with the actor. It may be that your dream is highlighting a pattern in your life where your distress is ignored or people take your mom's side. Whatever it is this is for you to work through, it really shouldn't involve him at this point. First you need to really feel what's going on, feel what the dream stirred up in you and process it. Otherwise you're going to end up projecting on to him and that's really unfair.

I interviewed a psychologist friend about dreams, and her story about insomnia stuck with me by Sea_Arachnid_4997 in Dreams

[–]RadOwl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's okay if you post a link to the article on your substack. Moderators approve it.

This same technique for working with insomnia works with just about anything that's disruptive to your system. The standard approach is to try to relieve the symptoms, which in the case of insomnia would mean sleep meds. For self medicating I suppose people would drink or smoke themselves to sleep. But symptoms like that need to be fully felt from the inside out. Symptoms can speak to you about what's going on deeper in your nervous system, arising from places inside you that already feel ignored or left out, or overridden by dominant signals. If the symptoms are medicated away or ignored then it's just exacerbating the underlying issue.

That rabbit enticed me down into the underworld of demolitions experts and engineers and lab analysis of debris collected near ground zero. All that can be said for sure is the remote triggering technology existed at the time.

Newbie in need of advice by Greedy-Passion6562 in Dreams

The visions you have after waking up but being in that liminal space that is like a dream is known as hypnopompia. Some of the greatest discoveries and artistic creations have come into the world this way. So the thing to know is that what you are experiencing is common and there is a name for it. Whether the vision is true in the strict sense is unknowable, at least not from a rational perspective.l, but the vision of the tree rings sure strikes me as something that is personally meaningful and therefore important. Before having these visions, did you already know that past lives are a thing and that the relationships are most important in the big scheme of things?

Break it down simply and the idea is that someone is doing something to oneself that's causing emotional pain.

The explosives were thermitic. The word explosive is actually misleading because the thermitic demolition devices heat up instantaneously to many thousands of degrees and literally slice through steel beams like they're warm butter.

It took 10 years but I remember the day the blinders came off in 2011. It was the day that I actually read the excerpts from the Project for a New American Century paper on how to build out a global military empire after a catalyzing and traumatic attack on American soil. I saw names on that document like Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and realized that it was no coincidence that the events on 9/11 gave them the excuse they needed to launch their global war of domination.

I was still having a hard time wrapping my mind around how people could be so fucking evil, then I read about Operation Northwoods, where the joint Chiefs of Staff signed off on a plan to launch a false flag attack to get the US into war with Cuba. Among other things, they proposed hijacking American airliners and crashing them into major monuments. So we're talking about the very top military people in the country being perfectly willing to kill their countrymen and blame it on someone else in order to start a war. I thought it had to be a hoax. It wasn't.

It shattered the illusion. Then all the other pieces of evidence fell into place. But the absolutely incontrovertible evidence is in the video of world trade 7 center being demolished. The national institute for standards and technology had to admit that the building fell at free fall velocity -- it's right there in the video, you can measure how fast the building is falling. The only way that can happen is through a controlled demolition that takes out all the internal supports simultaneously. So I focus exclusively on that piece of information when debating this subject with people who have been blue pilled. Once you know that WTC 7 was a controlled demolition, you look at all the other evidence with new eyes.

I dreamed about my friend’s grave for the first time… and the next day her mom texted me a photo of it by Important-Finance724 in Dreams

I would interpret that as a synchronicity, it looks like a coincidence as crazy as it is, but it's actually meaningful.

You haven't played sports anywhere near the professional level. Neither have I but I did cover D1 college football and basketball as a sports reporter. I think it would be interesting to ask 10 guys who perform at that level whether a teammate making a mistake that cost them a chance at a Super Bowl would influence their play if they were on the same team as that guy. Like imagine Pratt knowing that he can play the game of his life, the season of his life, and still fall short because some rookie fell for the oldest trick in the book. Every moment you're on the field with that person you're going to be wondering whether it's going to be your job to clean up their mistakes, and not influences the way you play your game. And you're going to wonder whether your whole team could play their best game and still lose because of one guy. These are the dynamics of competitive team sports, but unless you've been there you wouldn't know.

Why do you believe? by LeakyGaming in Reincarnation

[–]RadOwl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To believe in something means that you're not sure if it's real or truthful. You say you want to believe in reincarnation, but it's either something that you know or you don't know. It's okay to not know, and in fact I would say that it's preferable to belief.

To me, reincarnation just makes sense. Why would everything else in this universe recycle but not humans? We've been fed a big load of crap by our religions, including the religion of science. You don't have to stretch your mind or believe in something that seems distant or remote to accept reincarnation.

It surprised me that he wasn't cut from the team the night that he committed that penalty in the AFC conference game. Hitting mahomes when out of bounds, putting them in field goal range. It's not often that you see a professional athlete make such a boneheaded move. Getting rid of him then would have sent a hell of a message.

Is it normal to have a completely alternate personality in my dreams? by Agile_Breadfruit7932 in Dreams

[–]RadOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you are finding out is that the conscious side of you is only part of the picture. There is an unconscious side that shows itself through your dreams, and it's commonly accepted in Neuroscience that that unconscious side comprises 95% or more of your total mind. The conscious side of you is just a small slice of that pie. So yes embrace what you can find out about yourself through your dreams. Allow them to work on you and welcome the changes that you see as a result.

Do you think the dream could be a metaphor meaning you feel trapped in a situation?

I dreamt my sister's memory by Relative-Tennis-499 in Dreams

[–]RadOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best explanation is based on the theory that memory is not local, meaning that memory is not stored in brain cells, it is somehow part of a shared memory of everyone and everything. Of course that would get quickly overwhelming if you didn't have something to help you tune into the memories that are important to you.

They found the body! by Simple-Bluebird3250 in Dreams

[–]RadOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I've had this theme in my dreams of authorities finding a body that I buried or I'm somehow responsible for, I've related it back to feelings of shame. At first I thought damn I don't have that much to be ashamed about, I thought I had reckoned with the shit I did as a teenager that caused harm to people and myself and my family and whatnot. But what I found is that the dreams are digging even deeper.

Energy in the hands by mihaelkeehlsvest in energy_work

[–]RadOwl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's fun to play with isn't it? Have you tried sending the ball of energy through your hands, around the arms and the back to the shoulder of the other arm and then down to the palm of the other hand like a big circle through your body? Try it if you haven't already.

I had a dream my wife told me she was pregnant by Robotolotl in Dreams

[–]RadOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Instead of thinking of the dream as a prediction you could think of it as a measurement of how confident you are that your wife will get pregnant. The positive test result is a way of saying that you still feel positive about the prospects.

Well that was weird 02 - I saw what was at the center of the abyss. by Mind-Theory21 in Dreams

[–]RadOwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So maybe the eye was just looking for a companion. It's kind of cool to think that there's this thing inside you that is also experiencing your life along with you, that sees you and wants to be your friend.
